I prefer small purses - less chance of random junk accumulating inside. I have been a Sakroots user for years and have had 2 of the smaller smartphone wristlet bags.&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Sakroots-Smartphone-Wristlet-Black-White-One-World/dp/B01LY62ZEN/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Sakroots Smartphone Wristlet, Black/White One World</a>&nbsp;I LOVE THEM!  Unfortunately the last two phones I have purchased have not fitted in my older wallets. I found this at a local store and determined that my Samsung Galaxy Note 8, with slim case, fits perfectly in the phone slot - only I didn't like the available prints. So I tried Amazon - found a print that I really liked, and almost half the price of the brick and mortar store. Win Win, right?
Yes and No.
While I prefer the layout of the smaller wristlet, this purse has plenty of room for cards, cash, a couple of small items and of course - a phone. I am getting used to the layout, but I do miss the ID holder, hidden pocket and the ability to open the wallet wide like I had with my previous Sakroots. Some reviews have stated that you can't fit two cards in one slot - It is possible to fit more than one card in a slot. I actually have a few slots that have two cards in them. It was a little difficult at first, but once the fabric started to stretch from use - it was much easier.
Now for the not so great.
I have had this wallet for a whole whopping three weeks and one day. Yesterday I noticed that the lining in the phone pocket is starting to tear away at the seam. The week before I noticed that the wallet has actually curved. While I can deal, sorta, with a curved wallet. I am super annoyed about the lining. It appears that the fabric just barely reached the seam and a few weeks of my actually using the phone pocket, as it is intended to be used, has pulled the fabric down.
I am contacting the seller after I post this -  however here is the kicker. I purchased this in order to have on my vacation - for which I leave in 2 days. I will post any updates as they are available.
***UPDATE***
After contacting the seller and sharing the pictures they were more than understanding about my disappointment. They did not have any more of this item in stock so they refunded my money, and told me to keep the wallet as well. So while I am still on the hunt for a different wallet - at least I have something that works for now!
