ESR Geo Magsafe Wallet - 120 Days Later Review
Back in April I was fortunate enough to be given the opportunity to review one of ESR's products free of charge. I decided to go with the ESR Geo Magsafe Wallet both because A: I needed a new wallet haha, and B: unlike cases or screen protectors that are categorizes to their specific devices, a Masgsafe wallet is essentially a universal asset, only requiring a device that has Magsafe, which almost every modern iPhone has at this point, or the case having Magsafe, which almost every case manufacturer includes.
Now I've been a huge fan of Magsafe wallets ever since Magsafe came out, but there was always one overlying issue with them: durability. Every single wallet I've had never makes it past the six month mark, whether it be due to the leather peeling off or the glue and thread holding the card slots breaking off, they always end up breaking. Now normally this isn't a huge deal because I simp;y submit a warranty claim and I get a new one about a week later but eventually the process gets draining.
This is where I came up with the process of this review. Instead of doing a typical review after a week or two of using it I wanted to wait a looooooong time before doing the review, and eventually decided on 120 days, which is today!
So, how is it? It's pretty good!
Out of the box the wallet feels really premium with the Vegan Leather wrapping, and the connection to Find My is seamless, taking less than five minutes to get it all set up. The magnets are very strong, taking quite a bit of force to pop off. The part that surprised me the most was the finger loop, I thought I wouldn't really use the part this much but I use it all the time. It carries five cards which is fine, wish I could carry 1-2 more cards but it's not a huge deal.
Now 120 days later the wallet has a few signs of wear, which is normal these things can't stay pristine forever, but it's basically just a tiny bit of peeling in the corners and darkening of the finger loop. I do have an issue with the ID window cracking open but I'm pretty sure that's due to me forcing a third card into the slot when it only supports two. Overall the wallet has held up great!
As a whole, I give this wallet a 9/10 and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a premium Magsafe wallet that has great features like the Find My compatibility, premium build quality, and even a finger loop lol. My only wish is that there was one more pocket to hold a few more cards but I get that there isn't much room haha.
