Premium Carbon Credit Card Case with Coin Compartment and Metal Money Clip for up to 16 Cards - RFID / NFC Protection - Slim Wallet for Minimalist Men

Ok so below is my original review, and thereafter an update:"So this item is well made, sturdy, feels premium etc. Its tough, the rfid blocker works etc.However, actually using it as a replacement for you wallet is a massive pain in the arse. The item seems attractive with such features as being able to hold change, and hold cash in the strap on the outside, but in terms of practical use, its a massive headache and you would be a lot better off just using a regular wallet if you still want hold cash. I would not recommend this item, even for holding notes, as its a such a pain to get the money in, and getting it out risks dropping notes on the floor (depending on how you roll them) so its no different to just using the wallet for cards only and keeping the your notes and coins in a pocket or something.Even taking the cards in and out is not easy. You have to push the cards out all together, they dont concertina unless of course you become adept at pressing them out in the right way, but come on...if the whole point of resorting to using cards instead of cash is to save time, then whos got the time to do that? Furthemore, one wonders if the amount of time it takes to take your card out of the rfid blocking wallet defeats the whole point of contactless in the first place. Wouldn't it make more sense to just have an rfid blocking pocket or manbag or handbag or whatever? Also, the strap is so tight that putting cards back in is again a mission, and doing so will most definitely leave you with cards that have the fine plastic layers peeling off and so forth withing weeks of use.Overall, a massive pain to use, saves space but doesn't save time at all, and once the novelty wears off, you'll prefer you had put £27.90 towards a normal leather wallet with RFID blocking."But once I actually PAID ATTENTION TO THE INSTRUCTIONS I fell in love with this wallet immediately. "Push out cards, squeeze plates together." Simples.Still, the coin tray is annoying but does the job for holding a few quid. Definitely wouldn't risk leaving a key in it though.

Poor design and not easy to access cards

Wallet is attractively presented in presentation case. Making it an ideal gift.'Carbon' plates are thick and sturdy. I have tested the RFID protective capability and it works super. the coin tray is a bit on the shallow side for UK coins, but OK for other small thin items. The 'multitool' is a bit of a gimmick, which doesn't seem to be made from tool steel, I'll do a 'file test' later and edit. There are two bands, one is nice and strong and holds everything together well. The second one is looser, and I guess it's suitable if you're adding lots of items to the stack such as cards and other tools.I can see me using this for storing SD/sim cards, a swisscard multitool, some charcloth and other survival items to compliment my other EDC items.

Good. Used to it after using for it 2 months. Unsure of the RFID blocking capabilities.
