Update on the Keyway. Stopped by the Apple Store and tried some MagSafe accessories on it. The magnet is very strong and the “X” logo did not interfere with the wallet at all. This case is perfect.
That’s really good news. I switched to only using a MagSafe wallet this year so that’s pretty important for me. Mine should be here tomorrow so looking forward to trying it out.
What do people actually carry in their wallets, honestly? In this day and age everything goes into the phone. In Sweden we even have our identification in the phone now. Not just the identification to log into bank and such, but the ID card someone might demand to look at physically. I haven't carried a physical wallet for a long time.
Let's say the only physical card you need to carry is a driver's license. So not worth having the added bulk for 1 single card.
In the US there’s still a stupid number of places that don’t accept Apple Pay and a lot that don’t even accept credit cards. My state also doesn’t have an option for a digital ID.
My wallet, which stays in my vehicle 99% of the time, has my ID, a debit card and my Apple credit card.
Yeah we are way behind on tech. Most of the grocery stores don’t take Apple Pay so I have 2 credit cards and my ID in my wallet. I was one of those weirdos that always carried around cash until I switched the MagSafe wallet.I see, I guess the US needs to get with the times then
Looking forward to your review. After 5 days I’d say the grip is perfect now. Early signs of patina forming. I’m becoming more convinced this is the leather Apple used to use in the glory days. I like this case more than my old Bullstrap.
Do you have a caliper by chance to measure the thickness of the keyway? I’m digging the case but i’m trying to reduce my returns lol!
I picked up the Keyway after seeing your posts about it. Big fan of it. Definitely a quality product. I think it’ll age beautifully too.
I don’t sorry. But I would say it’s comparable to the 14 series Apple leather cases for fit and thickness.

This one
My drivers license, debit card, 2 credit cards, a small bit of cash, work ID, parking pass, membership cards to multiple bars, roadside assistance card, health insurance card, REI membership card and my fishing/hunting license. Not everything is digital and there are places that only accept cash (specifically some stalls at the farmers market). I use my phone for nearly everything but the vast majority of stuff in my wallet are things I use multiple times a week that aren’t available digitally.
I have an album in photos with pictures for all my membership cards, gift cards, etc.. Works flawlessly!

You know there are literally apps for that right? For example https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/stocard-loyalty-cards-wallet/id444578884
I did not know that! I’ll check it out, thanks!
I think for me, some of my cards i have pictures of are small local gyms, gift cards, etc..
I read that the Keyway leather case for iPhone 14 was bulky, do you find that's the case with iPhone 15 version? The last Apple leather case I had was for iPhone 13 Pro.
Not at all. I haven't had an Apple brand leather case since my old iPhone 12 but I've seen the Apples ones for the 13 and 14 in the store and on friends devices. I would say the Keyway is comparable in weight and thickness. It feels very nice in hand and the leather quality reminds me of the old 7 / 8 / X leather Apple used to use. I believe there are a couple other members having their Keyway delivered today so keep an eye out for their reviews. They may be able to give a more direct comparison
