I predict that the MagSafe wallet will be discontinued upon the release of the iPhone 18 Pro and Ultra. Specifically because of the Ultra. According to dimensions, the wallet sticks out and does not quite fit well, not to mention the rumor that MagSafe may be excluded. Apple surely would want everything they sell to be relevant to the entire current lineup, which is why Apple discontinued the Lightning MagSafe Duo and Battery Pack when the USB-C iPhones came out. A MagSafe accessory that is compatible with every iPhone except the "best" and most expensive one will stick out.

Another reason is that it's still FineWoven. It only lasted a year for the phone cases, but stuck around for the wallet. Even when replaced by TechWoven, the wallet was left alone. Apple is not giving attention to the wallet, which is what they have historically done before discontinuing products like the Mac Pro.

Personally, I love my 3 leather wallets and will use them as long as possible.
 
Assuming there is MagSafe (if not built in then just built into cases) I expect they will produce a landscape oriented wallet.
That’s a good prediction. Considering the air has its own MagSafe battery , makes sense they’d do the same with the wallet for the ultra. Maybe make a square battery too

my "prediction": your "prediction" is wrong.

I got a FineWoven one last year with my 17PM and it had held up quite nicely, no complaints
