Fits iPhone 13 Pro perfectly! Don’t listen to Mel!
on February 15, 2022
Posted by: Joe
I just got this so I can’t give a full review yet, but from everything I’ve experienced so far this stand wallet is as nicely thought out as all of PD’s other products. Are there some things that could have been done better? Yeah. They probably should find a way to integrate the mechanical lock of the SimLink, but it’s pretty strong with the case. And would it be a pain if it did mechanically lock? Not sure.
The main reason I’m writing this review though is because I almost didn’t buy this stand wallet because of Mel’s review. I don’t know what his issue is/was, but it fits the iPhone 13 Pro just as expected. It DOES NOT go past the rim as you’ll see in my pictures. The card capacity is great. I have 6 and some thinner insurance cards right now. The hinge is awesome. It’s a bit bulky, but honestly, it’s still pretty slim considering the capacity. There are at least equally bulky MagSafe wallets that hold far less. This is a solid buy and another awesome part of PD’s mobile collection. I currently own the bike mount as well and could not be happier. I hope this helps!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Looks good but has a lot of room for improvement

Me and my wife ordered two stand wallets. We immediately were disappointed after waiting more than a year to get it.
The real fault we found is the fact that the wallet doesn’t use the slim link system like the bike mounts and creator kit. This makes no sense. This is a wallet, it holds critical items and it only relies on magnets to secure it to your phone!
Taking the wallet off doesn’t require much force, makes no sound so there’s a real risk of losing it! Why PD decided to not include the slim link on such a critical item escapes me but I see a V2 of this product in the future that fixes this problem.
Another big issue, it doesn’t fit the iPhone 13 Pro well. It’s too big for it so it covers the camera lip just a bit and it doesn’t fit as securely as in my iPhone 13 Pro Max.
I can’t recommend this wallet to anyone looking for an actual secure wallet for their phone.

Well-made & Sleek

Review for Slim Wallet: Perfect fit, cards are snug, and the magnetic pull strap is awesome! I was a bit worried that I would have the same problem as another reviewer where the wallet slightly covered the camera frame of the phone case, but I do not have that issue with my iPhone 13 Pro. (They had a stand wallet though, which has slightly larger dimensions.)
I do think it would be nice to have a physical interlocking component on the wallet--as opposed to just a flat surface--so it fully utilizes the Slim Link design. That aside, the magnets are fairly strong, so I'm not that worried about losing the wallet.

Can't use wallet with phone and camera strap

I write this review after just losing 2 credit cards and a drivers license that were stored in the wallet. Needless to say, I will no longer be using this product. I love the peak design products. I purchased the camera strap and iPhone case to be able to go without a purse and just utilize my phone over my shoulder. When I saw the wallet - I was so excited that I could go without a purse much more often. The only problem - and it's a big one - is that when the iPhone is on your strap, the wallet is backwards making gravity work against the wallet. It would be a better design if the wallet faced upwards - so while wearing the wallet and strap - the magnet holding the contents of the wallet does not open unexpectedly.

Difficult to Use
on April 8, 2022

I purchased most of the Peak Mobile accessories for iPhone, love them all except for the slim wallet. Followed all the directions but difficult to store and retrieve my 4 cards plus you have to take it off entirely to use the other mag safe accessories.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great addition to the mobile suite.

I bought this after getting an Everyday Case, as I was missing the stand from a popgrip. This has fulfilled my needs, but with a few caveats: 1. The mobile wallet adds significant bulk to the device; and 2. It is annoying to have to remove it to attach the phone to a stand/mount.
Overall, I use it daily but would have preferred an integrated stand of sorts.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Functional mobile wallet

I’ve checked several mobile wallets for my iPhone 13 Pro Max, this tick all the boxes. You can store 4-5 cards, magnet feels secure, you can use it as a stand while viewing it vertically or horizontally. It’s very versatile. I’ve been playing around with it, and it looks like you can remove the fabric material and put it back to it’s metal plate which is ideal if you wish to use it in long term.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great design! Could use a little stability

I think this is probably the best wallet of its sort on the market. The only thing I would ask for would be a true, locking mechanism like on the bicycle mount to make sure that the wallet doesn’t fall off. It’s a really mission critical function for the wallet to not become detached accidentally.
