General Leathercraft

General leathercraft Raymond Cherry

General leathercraft Raymond Cherry

This is a very good wallet. Not fancy but very functional. I can put many of my cards in the slots which allows for faster retrieval and because it is not a 3 fold wallet it is nowhere as big in my back pocket.
It comes with a cheap useless and low quality (in my opinion) plastic insert similar to the old photo inserts but for credit card size items. This item ended up in the recycling before I even put a card in the wallet.
One small thing I do not like is that some of my cards set into the pockets a little too low and I have a hard time seeing what they are. However I consider that trivial as it is not hard to remove any of the cards when needed.
The only other thing I don't like is this wallet never seems to have any money in it. But seeing I am married I think I know where that problem is.

And yes, delivery from Amazon was exceptional as always...thank all you folks at Amazon.

Perfect for the Intuition!!!

Mercury Fancy Leather Intuition Optimus

Mercury Fancy Leather Intuition Optimus

I purchased this totally blind and so far am very satisfied with it's performance. This is a new phone, so I don't have much to compare it to. I have not used the NFC to confirm that it works. I will update the review if something needs to be changed. That said,

I purchased this expressly for using my phone as a gps tracking device for day hiking, knowing I'd be out 8-10 hours at a time and may not be in cell tower range. I'm assuming that the phone is constantly polling and even though I had all notifications off, I also assume this is not a very battery efficient setup. During my week away, at the end of the day, I would get back with 35-50% battery left. I used the phone heavily in the evening on wifi and still had plenty of juice left before I recharged for the evening.

For my purposes and at this cost, this is a winner. I have no way of knowing if it has as much "oomph" as the higher priced offerings, but it certainly is a nice alternative.

It is not as bulky as I thought it would be. I certainly didn't get the urge to rip it off as as soon as I returned to "civilization". The new back is serviceable. I'm not a fan of these zipper backs, but that is Samsung's issue.

If the battery came bundled with a charger it would be outstanding.

UPDATE: I have been using this battery for several weeks. I have tried to run it down, I get at about 1 day and 14 hours with 12% left. That includes two hours of streaming podcasts or radio, an hour of workout, email and phone. Some game playing, Temple Run for about 20 minutes as part of the test. I am very pleased with this battery. The one con is the battery back is hard to get off.

Phone:
Google Galaxy Nexus (i9250). I purchased battery and the Trexcell TPU flexible case for extended battery (fits great) and I use this case, as well as a body glove and Cruzer Lite with a Seidio Surface holster. Basically got the holster and two of the three cases for the cost of the Seidio Surface combo together, but I guess that is another review.

I usually end up complaining in reviews. It nice to be able to recommend a good value. Don't let the lack of reviews and the low cost put you off.

Great product - super customer service

Secure Genuine Leather Blocking Wallet

Secure Genuine Leather Blocking Wallet

I HATE wallets! Especially big fat overstuffed ones in the back pocket of any man... or woman for that matter. Call me vain but I think it looks crude, and sloppy and ruins the way pants or jeans fit or look on a person... in addition, it screams "Hey here's my wallet full of $ and credit cards Mr. Pick pocket"! That being said, I can only imagine what some of you reading this are thinking, however you must understand that to many of us appearance matters with regard to back pocket wallets. So, for years I have always kept my wallet or money clip in my front pocket. It feels more secure in the front pocket, especially in a crowd. This little Swiss Army wallet has been perfect. Even though there some other reviewer's (warranted) unfavorable comments on quality and construction, those issues pale in comparison to this product's overall value and design... and anyway, it cost under $10! There are several pockets, some of which are especially secure for more important items like ID/driver's license, gold or platinum cards, or "Benjamins" - if you're inclined to carry large denomination bills. There is a see through window for your ID/DL that makes it easy to flash when needed... or a grocery card with a barcode that can be scanned right through the plastic window. No this isn't a high end exotic animal or reptile skinned wallet, if that's what you're in to (God forbid, but to each his own)... but it's exceptional for everyday use and I love it. I'm a reformed "money clipper" thanks to my new "hybrid wallet/$ clip" combo!
