Vera Bradley Cotton Smartphone Wristlet with RFID Protection

This is a great phone wallet. I had one prior to this one, and it was a hassle to take pictures with my phone, and remove my phone from its case. Sometimes, its easier just to take out your phone instead of having to juggle the whole wallet. I love this design as it has places for bills, coins, and cards. Also, your ID can be placed on the exterior. The RFID security is also a great feature. I like how everything fits, and I can access my phone via the exterior easily, but the snap strap keeps it secure.

Let me begin by saying Vera Bradley products are made well. They hold up to our everyday torture, be it a totebag, handbag, or just a small article that receives a lot of handling. Recently I came across this Smartphone/Wallet wristlet. I had bought one a short time ago, and liked the idea of a wristlet, but the wallet part was lacking. Oh Boy! This Vera Bradley wristlet is great!. First of course I love the teal color, and the printed fabric inside. Of course it has to be pleasing to the eye. My iPhone slips out easily when I receive a phone call, so I am pleased with that feature. The wallet part is such an extra bonus! The fabric is printed, so it's really pleasing to me, and has plenty of slots for my credit and debit cards. It has a designated place for my cash. (yes, us old people still use cash now and then) And there is even a small zipped place for change. Perfect!!!!! Also, the finishing touch is there is a place for my drivers license that is in clear plastic, so I don't even have to pull if out when I need to show a salesclerk that I am old enough to buy beer and wine at the grocery store! So, if you need a great wristlet, this is the one you will be happy with.

90% of the time, I only carry my phone (iPhone X) in a wallet case, and car key. Nothing else. I use ApplePay and Walmart Pay just about everywhere I go/live, and my phone case has my Drivers License, and a backup debit card just in case. Im not a girly girl who carries 5-lbs of makeup, a box of kleenex, and the kitchen sink every time I leave the house. (Seriously, what are these women carrying in these purses I see everywhere - their like duffle bag purses!!) Like I said, my phone in my pocket, and Im out the door. No emergency is gonna be that big that I need to carry 20-lbs of "just incase" items around with me all day in a duffle bag purse. I do have nice purses, and occasionally carry a nice purse, just don't see the point or need to on an everyday basis :)Enter VB Phone Wristlet. I love it! Its small, simple, classy. I have all my "real" cards in this case as well as paper cash money, and a few trinket type items in the zippered coin pouch. My iPhone X in a wallet case (not a folio, just a 2 slot on the back kind) fits perfectly in the phone slip pouch on front.Now you might be asking, if I don't carry a purse, and only use my phone when I leave home, for general shopping/errands/work, why do I need a wristlet? A) I have a lot of debit/credit cards and this gives me a way to keep them all in one little wallet (holds 2 per slot) that also fits my phone, when I go places I might want/need more then just my phone. Basically travel and weekend type getaways away from our home city area. Although I live in a very tech centered area and Apple Pay/Samsung Pay/Android Pay are literally accepted everywhere (here at least), there are little rural towns throughout America that are lagging behind in the technology field lol. I don't blame them at all its a cost issue to upgrade point of sale equipment to accept digital payments, especially if your a small mom and pop type business to begin with. But seriously, one little family restaurant we stopped for lunch at on one of our travels didn't even accept physical cards! in 2018! No debit cards, no credit cards, no anything. Cash only and nothing larger then $20s. It was like a Twilight Zone episode....cue music.....(dodo dodo)....Luckily hubby had cash on him or we would have been doing dishes that night lol.So now, if I know we're traveling further from our home area, especially into more rural type areas (bless their little hearts) I have a wristlet to have more physical cards, and more importantly 'cash' on me, just in case we find ourselves once again.....in the Twilight Zone....:)

I wanted a wristlet I could put my phone in when I don't want to fool with my purse. It fits my galaxy S23 with a case and popsocket perfectly. It even has snap closure where the phone goes so it stays in place. It also has a snap for the ID window which is nice so you don't have to worry about it falling out either. It has plenty of card pockets, a change pouch, and a place for bills to lay flat (instead of having to fold them up like I had to do with my previous wallet). There are two spots you can attach the wrist strap to. I have a feeling this one is going to hold up well for a long time

Beautiful Vera Bradley, what’s not to love? Solid stitching and material. Very versatile for travel. Phone or cigarettes, credit cards and small itemsGood value for the money. .

I carry the wallet everyday but I carry my phone separately . The phone compartment is a little too tight to be able to slide it out in the event of an incoming call. The front side with the clear window is helpful for displaying emergency information. Inside, there are plenty of compartments but only a couple of cards can be placed in each holder due to a tight fit.Overall I’m pleased with the wallet and carry it in place of a purse routinely.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I have the Galaxy z fold 6 and it's a perfect fit. Just the right size.

I'm heading on vacation and wanted a wristlet to keep in my carry on. This is the perfect size, keeps my ID visible and easily accessible, fits all my cards and cash, has a zipper for coins, and my phone slides in and out easily. It has a wrist strap and also a spot for a longer strap or to hook on keys. Plus it's cute! Well made.
