I have iPhone 12 RED in red silicone case and I can't decide if go for Baltic Blue or Arizona color 😞.
What is your suggestion?

In my opinion, not the Saddle Brown (I’ve got both, the red silicone case and the SB wallet). I think that the black wallet could look very well with the red silicone case.

I like the Baltic blue on my red leather. I'm not big on Arizona with colors-- I think it's beautiful in and of itself, but I really only like it on neutral-colored cases.

Prospective Apple Leather Wallet buyer here. If a credit card is the outermost card, will the embossed numbers on the card leave an imprint on the wallet over time? This is what’s happened to my Bellroy wallet. Just worried that the beautiful design would be ruined, I’m not concerned from a security standpoint.

I think the leather is too thick/rigid on the front for that to happen.
 
I currently have the leather Baltic blue for my pro max and I am using the California poppy wallet with it and it works a treat! Recently I’ve tried using my silicone black case with the wallet but have found it slides off very easily.
All real Apple.
Any one else have issues with this?

Probably because they know how people are. Oh no my card has a scratch... I can't go on! This is all Apple's fault for not telling me not to put it in my wallet. I demand a new card!
BTW, you can order a new card whenever you want, from the wallet app. I did it already, because my card was getting discolored from my black leather wallet. I have since switched to a brown. should help I think.
 
My Mous Card Wallet does better job than magsafe wallet from what ive seen in them reviews and it was half the price lol.

May ask the following?
What model iPhone are you using it with?
how strong are the magnets against resistance/force when sliding into skinny front jeans pockets or when moving around in athletic fit jeans pockets? Does it move about or easily slide off when griping the phone with Mous MagSafe Wallet in the palm when shifting your grip adjustment side to side (grip being the same but like when you adjust for using your thumb for reach ability on the screen)?

How is the fit from all sides on iPhone 12 mini?
thanks
 
Think Arizona is worth having as an alternative to Saddle brown?

Just put in an order for A like new one on Prime day, $42 after 25% off amazon warehouse for ‘like new’ condition one
 
I like the Arizona a lot !

Do you have experiences with Wallet and Apple clear case? I just noticed that iPhone don't recognize Wallet when I putting it in on clear case.
When I have silicon or leather case I can see classic animation about connecting, but with clear case it doesn't work. I got only vibration when I putting it off.

I found that it can be common problem - https://libredd.it/r/iPhone12/comments/kgm34b/12_mini_clear_case_not_making_a_sound_when_i/
Same for me. I figured it was because the clear case has the additional magnet, which the leather and silicone cases do not.
 
I hated having to remove the wallet just to get the cards out. Returned it. Got a Bullstrap card case and love it!

Yeah they’re completely different use cases. I like that I can remove the wallet and leave it on the daily station on my way into the house without having to remove my case. When I leave the house, it snaps on the case and then goes in a cubby in the car if I know I won’t be needing it which allows me to snap my phone on a mount without having to remove the case.

If I’m going into a store I know has Apple Pay, I don’t have to bother with it. If they don’t or I’m not sure, I slip the wallet in a pocket or on the phone. This flexibility has made it an essential for me; there when you need it and out of sight when you don’t.
 
How’s that Bullstrap wallet? Not finding much on reviews on it.

I don't have the new wallet they have advertised on their site that looks like the Apple Wallet. I have the portfolio case. It's the case with 2 slots on the back for cards. I honestly love it. The quality is way better than the Apple leather case I got for free. I just have my credit card and license in the slots. It's easy when you just need to grab your phone and keys and go! When you don't want to carry your entire wallet.

If they don't go crazy with their prices (Went from $59 to $99 and back down to $79) then this will probably be the case I stick with going forward with all of my future iphone purchases.

Thanks for the write up. I was looking for info on the MagSafe wallet. It must be fairly new. I may just have to pick it up and try it out.

Less than one week with magsafe wallet and few days of it with apple leather case. My bank allow me to do smart withdrawal and in Italy Apple Pay could be easily used in every shop where they’ve got a NFC pos. So I don’t need to have with me my credit/debit card and I only put my driving license and my working badge with 2-3 folded bank notes.

I found the combo very comfortable for my needs and I think that the wallet is also useful for a better hold of my 12 mini :)

After some months of magsafe wallet I went back to a card holder from montblanc. Now, with my 14 PM I may be interested again in magsafe wallet. How all of you are going with it? Still using it?

What made you switch and consider switching back?

I'm still using it on 14P. It's great when I use no case. Easy to put on and take off. With my bumper case, it's not as easy to take off because it fits on with little extra space. If I had a 14PM with a bumper case then no problem taking it off, plenty of extra room to easily break the magnetic hold.

I switched to a normal wallet because I’ve got a lot of card that I used to have with me. The magsafe wallet is comfortable at work (20€, driving license and work card) to have access to scrubs’ dispenser and OT access and when I want to move light.
