I received my Alamo wallet for my 6 and the first thing I noticed is that there's no second pouch for money but I'll admit when I checked their site that it's only the 6+ wallet that contains it.
I honestly find this kind of advertising misleading.
I don't like how flimsy the spine of the wallet is and to be honest I think the twelve South bookbook is a better wallet, the quality of the leather may be better on the Alano but I think that's all that is better.
It's a nice wallet but with room for improvement considering the price.
How flimsy is it? Would it be possible to post a short video or maybe a video showing off the case? Crazy how I can't find a video reviewing the 6 or 6+ version
Sorry no video but the spine is so flimsy that the intelli-stand doesn't work, the phone just falls over.
It's a nice case but for the money I expected better.
Another issue I can see is the rubber painted onto the iPhone holder coming off soon, it always does.
I have sent them an email and video explaining my problem but I am waiting for a reply. If they respond in a way to satisfy me then I will purchase the alano case for my iPad air 2 also.
I'm told a tool, which makes removing the case easier, is on the way to me.
Interested to see if this works when it arrives.
Honestly I'm terrified to put the case on again, even with this tool.
I don't blame you. As much as I love this case as much as switching it with my black Apple leather case, I find myself not using this one as it's to much effort to take it out.
Amazing quality though, got to give that to Portenzo. The magnet system is fantastic.
With a lot of unnecessary effort!Agreed. If I could make myself live with only one case I'd probably be okay with it.
How are you going about removing your phone from the case?

I pull off the bottom corner which gives me enough leverage to pop the phone off.
After owning so many cheap, flimsy cases it's a relief to know that the portenzo one feels so strong.
I imagine the magnet glued to the back is what makes it so rigid.
It's a big jump in quality over the twelve south case which at first feels great but feels cheap once you get used to it.
I wish Portenzo would over the bottom card holder see-through though.
I see on your video you have the P&Q case for 6+, I had one for my iphone 5 but the wood split.
I reported this at the beginning of this thread. I put it on and tried to take it off on the first day I have it wtf
I struggled and was worried I would damage the phone. I emailed them and they were rather blasé and said return it.
I should have returned it but I gave it away.
What does it tell you that they needed to invent a tool?
It tells me they already spent their money on the mold and rather then go back to the manufacturer to get it remade, they would prefer to continue to sell this obviously defective part.

A relief? Are you kidding?
No excuses and not need of the case to be that tight. Its too small.
Can the 6 plus with all the cards and cash fit into your back pocket like carrying a regular wallet around or is it to big?Another one:
