vCommute iPhone 8 Wallet Case

Overall this case is simply AMAZING! My previous wallet case was a Speck wallet case which served my iPhone 6 well. The problem with that (and most wallet cases) were that they exposed my cards on the back. With this case, my cards are covered and can’t be noticed that it’s a wallet case. Also I was able to fit up to 5 cards, but that seems to be pushing it because the case separates a bit at the corners. Now here is my issue, the case has a deep camera opening. Taking images is no problem, but taking images with FLASH is. All images taken with flash become completely washed out and overexposed. The difference is completely noticeable. However this should only affect night-time or low-light photography/video, all other pictures wouldn’t really require flash. All in all it’s a solid case that I would definitely recommend to friends and family. Looking forward to a possible case redesign where the flash isn’t affected and then this would be a 5/5 case.

First off, I feel cheated that I didn’t get this case for free or discounted like most others seem to be getting it... So, from someone that paid regular price: I’m happy with my purchase. I bought this case because Otterbox hasn’t updated their commuter case for the iPhone 7 yet and this looked like the best option available (could fit at least 3 cards with a couple bonus features I didn’t go out of my way to have: magnetic back and built-in stand). I fit 3 cards (one was a thinner ID) and a cash bill folded twice. I tried adding an additional item (fishing license), but I had to fold that twice and that caused too much bulging. The card space is recessed and it sits in something like a rubber pocket, so it can flex as cards are added. The cover snaps very assertively over the card holder, which is great for keeping cards safe - I’m not worried about losing them at all. Of course, it might hold them too well as I struggle a little bit to get the cards/cash out over the recess (they don’t just smoothly slide out - especially anything below the top card). The magnetic feature also means I can attach this to my vent magnet in my car without having to add a metal pad to my case. I wouldn’t have gone out of my way for this feature, but no complaints that it’s part of the package. The stand feature doesn’t really have as many angles as it claims to - the phone is just too heavy to have it at the smaller (closer to laying flat) angles. The upright most angle (closer to standing on its side) is very stable. I haven’t had any major drops yet (give it time...) so can’t speak to durability other than it seems like it should hold up pretty decently. I added a glass screen protector which of course means the protective edge around the front of the case doesn’t stand out as far from the first glass surface (being my screen protector). Of course ideally, the screen protector should take care of protecting said screen and hopefully it’s not an issue. Summary: 4 stars because of the shortcomings listed, but as the review title says, overall I’m happy with my purchase.
