If you out in public and flip the card flap in the back to use the Iphone, strangers will see your credit cards. That's issue in big cities or traveling out of the country.

Haven't used it outside yet, but I would probably dial a call then close the flap while talking to not show the cards.
 
Hey there, just wanted to let you know SenseCover for iPhone 6/6 Plus does have a magnetic clasp that holds the front folio when in use. There's a camera cutout on the polycarbonate back, but if we had a camera cutout in front it wouldn't look right when the case is closed.

thank you Moshi.... I do realize ashetics are important but in the case of folios, function matters too....in my case the function of the camera matters alot and it is very akward taking photos with the flap hanging down
 
What additional harm does it bring if stranger see your credit cards?

So they see that you use a combined phone/wallet case which means if they can steal the thing, they get both your phone and your credit cards. Does that give them the incentive to try harder to steal your phone because the phone by itself is not as profitable as a phone and a bunch of credit card?

I don't see this to be the case.

Yes, Ever ride the subway in NYC. Ever been in the Bronx or Florence Italy? You're assuming thieves are smart people will access the profitability. I don't think so, mostly just scavengers. If thief already planning to steal (grab & run) iphone and there is 2 people of choice that are texting away. He looks at the 2 victims and see one iphone with credits cards showing and the other case is plain. the thief got the choice, they'll most likely choose the credit card case as bonus hit. yea, yea I know don't use iphone in subway, like the long list of other "don't do" etc etc.

I'm not worried about the credit card so much as the driver license showing to the world. The case with window for Driver License are worst yet. Stranger seeing address, name etc, using their camera to zoom in & snap a picture of your id. Also stealing driver license is more of pain to replace. Gotta stand in long line at the DMV

I want wallet case, so I don't have to carry 2 items (wallet & phone) but at the same time I just don't want to share with world what's going with my case while I'm on my cell.

I'm looking for an iphone 6 case that covers the screen and the back, and has the ability to be used as a stand. I'm not to concern about it being used as a wallet, though many of the cases have the features that I'm interesting in, are also wallets or card holders. Share your thoughts on how useful these types of cases are, and suggestions for which one to buy.

I have one concern about these types of cases which is the possible problem of the flap that covers the screen interfering during video or photo shooting. Some flaps don't even lock when closed which could be another problem these cases have.

I would go for a normal back case but I want to protect the iphone 6's screen from scratches, and don't like the plastic apply yourself screen shield. I either don't get it on right, or bubbles ruin the shield.

Here are some cases that I am considering..

Thanks in advance for the help with this decision.
 
Saw a few nice looking cases here, but I would choose not do put two very important things together, as a person lost things very often.
 
Just received the www.sfbags.com FinnWallet for 6 Plus.
Its an interesting concept, very well made wallet. Not sure how I will like it as its a large wallet, but being able to carry the phone and wallet as one might be nice. Will have to try it out for a week and see if it sticks.

iPhone 6 Wallet Cases roundup

I received the Incipio Stowaway. It was okay, but I worried about the durability of the card door and also the cards I wanted to carry didn't fit in the case. In their defense, it is advertised to hold 3 cards and it did, but I wanted to carry 4. They're not all credit cards, and all 4 fit in my iPhone 5 Speck SmartFlex Card which was also advertised as being able to hold 3 cards. So I sent the Stowaway back.

Anyway, while I wait for better wallet cases, my sister recommended these wristlets on Etsy:

I ordered one. Maybe I'll stick with it. We'll see when I get it.

There's another case on there website that has Window so you can see who's calling or text while still in the case. This case gives flexible to remove the iphone from wallet, like when at home. It doesn't show your credit cards & id to the world. Hold more than 2 cards plus cash. It looks like a winner.

Here a youtube video ---> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEBfiQsADvU

thanks for sharing.

I want a book style wallet case so bad, but I don't want to lug my entire wallet with me to meetings. I'd like to easily be able to leave my cards and cash behind in my locked desk and just take my phone to a meeting without fuss.

Also I'd like to be able to take photos quickly without having things flopping around.

I like the incipio Watson concept but apparently they only have it for the iphone 6. http://www.incipio.com/cases/iphone...llet-folio-with-removable-cover-iphone-6.html

Looks like you can't charge it in the folio though. Check out the ports in other photos...the ports appear to be somewhat obstructed. That seems to make it somewhat unusable. Why would they do that?

I checked your site and I'm not seeing that you're offer sensecover for iPhone 6+. Also, do you have the retail price value of your sensecover for iPhone 6 and 6+, if there is 6+. Thanks!
 
The only issue with the padd&Quill is this awful elastic :( I'm pretty sure it will annoy me :(

Yeah, I'm very intrigued by the Watson. If they make it for the 6+, this would be a strong contender. The ability to remove the cover and/or take the phone out easily is a big deal for me...
