iPhone 6 Wallet Cases roundup

[TraceyS/FL]

Whether it feels good or not, you won't be able to take pictures with clarity with his case

Since I'm carrying my DSLR most of the time, that isn't a worry right now. For the moment, the wallet case is just for theme park outings. I'm using my Vera Bradley mini hipster (solid black) for daily use. Although if I could find a holster and a card case I liked I might switch.

I just really hate the feel of the spigen.

Definitely picking one up

These look good. But the way I see it, once it's filled up, it's going to be a hassle to roam around with. Personally, I would rather use a separate case for my phone. I don't like showing off all my cards/notes to unhealthy eyes every time my phone rings.

I really like this case. I like that fact that you can fit so many cards into it. It covers most needs of a normal wallet

Does anyone have any experience with the Vault Skin Wallet cases? I can't really tell how much protection they offer the phone. Is there something similar that can hold more than 2-3 cards AND protect the phone without being too girly? Thanks!

Nodus for iPhone 6

Hi,

My Nodus arrived last week.










At first I was a bit disappointed. I expected it to be slimer, but I start loving it... This is really minimalistic, and the easy access to card is a + compared to my old bookbook...
Removing/sticking back the phone is super easy... Only the little closure is always dirty and not sticking anymore... Maybe this is my fat fingers

Ah, I was curious to see some pictures of this case.
I pre-ordered it but asked for a refund because I changed my mind and wanted something with more protection. I must say the founders are really kind.

Try to only take 1 card inside and the case will be thinner, or maybe it just needs some time.
EDIT: I checked the pictures again and I am now wondering if the case is closed in the second photo. It looks like it has a lot of cards inside (but I only see two) or it is just open.

As for the little micro-suction pad, you may already know it but they can send you a replacement free of charge. Again, amazing support!


EDIT #2: I agree with the user below, smart branding.

I received mine as well. I think it is quite slim for the leather, and agree it is much, much better than bookbook. You will need to wipe the sticky piece with damp cloth - had same problem. It works well again.

I do wish I could put three cards in (i.e., license, amex and visa), but it starts getting too big to close well/be flat. However, I love the understated classy look without a bunch of logos etc. (I didn't buy the portenzo because I was worried it would have their large logo on the side.)

Overall - really like it.

Really liked my Otterbox Commuter Wallet case for my old 5s. Disappointed Otterbox is not making this model for the 6+.

I got mine this week as well. I had one for the iPhone 5, so I was excited for the 6 version. I like this version, but I actually dislike the fold in the back that allows the case to act as a stand. It makes folding back the cover to hold in my left hand (for whatever reason, my preferred hand for holding my phone while using it) difficult. That's something I could get used to over time, however. The biggest thing is that the micro suction doesn't play nice with my screen protector. I have a Zagg HDX on my screen, and the micro suction pad refuses to stick to it. I would anticipate a glass screen protector having no issues, however.

Overall, awesome case, just doesn't fit my needs at the moment.

For those who notice a decline in suction, just add a little saliva. Whenever the pads (esp the one that keeps the cover closed) seemed to lose suction, I would lick my thumb and run it across the pad, and the suction would be like new.

Ok, so I've got a dream wallet case that, after hours of searching, I am sure does not exist. However, I'd like to outline it for you all to see what your thoughts are. Here goes:

- Start with a black Apple leather case so the case is very slim, provides some protection, buttons are all covered, has genuine, soft leather, and has lay on the table design.


- Add bottom protection while remaining slim.

- Add a tan leather pocket on the back for credit cards.

Boom. Perfect wallet case in my eyes. It would look a lot like this:

But it would be a slim leather case rather than a pouch.


If anyone knows of something out there like this, even if it's not the same color scheme, please let me know.

Does anyone know an iPhone 6 Plus Wallet with a belt clip or strap? Something along the lines of the iLuv wallet that could be carried on my belt would be just perfect.

Maybe this Folio Premium PU Synthetic Leather Wallet will be good for you? It doesn't have a belt clip but it does have a strap and it looks like a good case.

Me too! The Otterbox Commuter Wallet is a great case.

I am planning on returning my black Kavaj "Dallas" case to Amazon. Its a great case and very well made, I just don't think I will be able to get used to the folio style. If someone is interested in purchasing the case, shoot me a PM; otherwise I will just return it back to Amazon.

I receive this case and it was so poorly made that it fell apart in my hands. The scenario of setting it up went something like this:

1. Put the phone in the case - check.
2. Slide open the back cover to add cards - nope. There's nothing to grab onto so your finger just slides. This makes you apply more pressure, deforming the case. Ultimately I licked my finger to get it to open.
3. Put in 2 cards that awkwardly fit in the slot. They fit staggered, but the next time I opened it they weren't staggered any more; Pulling out one re-adjusted the other.
4. Tried to readjust the first card and closed the case.
5. Opened the case (again, had to lick my finger and apply pressure), and the credit card, still in the slot, slid down along with the door, ejecting it out under the sliding door, wedged between the door and and case.

Verdict: Junk; tore it off and gave up.

Whatever - maybe someone else will have better luck.

Look what I found...

Their cases are bulky and SLIPPERY.

Thats to bad because it looks like a great concept.... that would be a wallet case I would use and replace my wallet....maybe other case makers will make one like it

Just got this from Best Buy. Love it so far.
ADOPTED - Leather Folio Case for Apple® iPhone® 6 Plus - Black

How do you like this case?
Also saw it at a BestBuy but never had a wallet type iPhone case and passed on it. Seemed pretty nice and not too bulky.

Thanks

 

[dsquared81]

Pm me for more info on a kavaj Dallas cognac for the plus.

I've now had the case for almost two weeks and love it. It's my first wallet case as well. The slim form factor is the best part. It somehow makes the 6 Plus not look so big. My wife has the 6 in an otter box and her phone feels bulky compared to my Plus in this case. The wallet type does take some adjusting to, but now whenever I look at the open faced cases they all look so "messy" (for lack of better words). The Plus just looks so neat and slim in this case.

Dig your fingernail to the G in Spigen to open the case.

I wrote this before, but I hope they would at least supply a rubber sticker with the case, so you can stick in somewhere on the back to help with opening it.

The Otterbox Commuter Wallet (not yet announced for the 6+), or the BulletTrain Safe Wallet (just announced for 6+) are similar but far better options.
