Review on KONKY Caseme Wallet Case Magnetic Detachable Removable Phone Cover Pouch Folio Durable Leather Purse Flip Card Pockets Holder Bag Smooth Zipper (S21, Black) by Jenn Plata

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Just a few hitches best in my review

It showed up today. (Right on schedule even though it didn't actually ship till this morning. I had been skeptical.)The magnets that hold the phone case in place and the ones holding the wallet portions shut are stronger than I expected. I don't think there will be any problems with my phone falling out, or the wallet coming undone unless I'm super rough with it.The phone case itself fits the s8 very nicely and came with a lanyard that attaches to the lower right hand side of the phone. A nice surprise.Packaging was professional if that matters to you. The description on the back of the packaging was fun to read because it was obviously translated from Chinese. It's a good translation, but you can still see the remnants of a different grammatical structure, and it made me smile.The stitching and material all looks good. No loose threads (a pet peeve of mine.)I got the blue case. I like the color just fine, but the mottled texturing does include some gray areas which kind of makes it look dirty right out of the package. Not a big deal to me, but could bug some people. I think it will help hide the wear as it gets more used.The card slots are tight. So tight, that I can't use two of them because the cards in the other slots take up all the space. I expect that these will stretch over time, and the other two slots will become more usable, but for now it's a bit of a problem.The case is bulky. Not as bulky as a purse though, and it fits everything without threatening to pop or break like my previous case did. With all the slots (except the two unusable ones) full, four more cards in the other pockets, four insurance cards, my phone and a couple of dollar bills in it, the case is slightly over an inch wide on one side, slightly over two inches wide on the other. This slope will probably bug some people, but it is holding closed securely.A note on the closing mechanism: Like I said, the magnets are strong. On the half of the case the holds the phone there is a magnetic snap that holds a strap across the opening. On the other side there are two magnetic snaps that hold the wallet closed from the inside. Loaded up as it is, one of those snaps (the top one) doesn't engage. This also doesn't bother me since the bottom one seems to hold it closed just fine. (Update, after only a few days of breaking it in, the top snap does engage also.)The one issue that does bother me is the zipper pouch. I purchased this case thinking that the zipper portion would be able to hold coins, but the two gaps shown on either side of the zipper are actually gaps in the pouch. There is nothing stopping your coins from wandering off. Even quarters will be liable to fall out. It can probably be patched or stitched closed to be more functional, but this was disappointing for me.Note: I had to take photos with my phone, so naturally it wasn't in the case. The pictures I've posted show the case slightly thinner than it would be with a phone in it. Otherwise, the wallet was fully loaded in these pictures.

Pros
  • It’s just a real nice case. The wife loves it.
Cons
  • Looks and feels nice, but I don't have a hole to put carrying strap on my case.
