It is so much easier to combine your phone & wallet into one unit. Using the Gear Beast GearFolio Wallet allows me to carry a few credit cards, drivers license and much needed cash along with my iPhone in one device. They have included a screen protector in the package, and along with the folio cover gives you full protection of your phones screen. The case is made of a premium synthetic leather, with reinforced edges for extra protection if dropped. It feels good in your hands and you will get a lot of complements. There is a magnetic closure to make sure the cover will not open. Gear Beast has made sure that all the openings for your phones camera, headphones and buttons are precision cut thereby giving complete access to everything. The iPhone 6 plus is a rather large phone making it important to me that whatever case I used would not add any size or bulk to it. Gear Beast has achieved that goal for me. I know this case is a winner because of all the complements that come my way. There is a lifetime no hassle warranty.

There are a million different iPhone cases out there. Trust me. I know. Of those million, perhaps a hundred are actually good, with the definition of good depending on your exact needs. You’ve got simple cases, you’ve got decorative cases, you’ve got waterproof cases, and, in the case (see what I did there) of this review, you’ve got folio cases.
Folio cases are great when you need to class it up a bit and give your phone that “this is my work phone” feel. GearBeast’s folio case provides you with just that, but at a fraction of the cost of other quality folio cases. For the cost of your average simple bumper case, GearBeast will give you this classy, synthetic leather folio.
Probably the best part about it is that it’s slim enough not to interfere with your normal iPhone usage: the headphone jack, charging port, and all buttons are usable. One potential con would be that, due to the cover, the volume and ringer buttons are somewhat difficult to get to at first. That’s a natural downside to having any sort of folio case, though.
The case itself is made out of a pliable rubber material, not a hard plastic shell; however, the outer ridge and corners are sufficiently reinforced to soften any kind of impact. The iPhone will slip in easily yet stay snug and secure.
Another natural downside of a folio type case is the difficultly of taking pictures. Having the case open does not naturally interfere with picture taking in terms of getting in the way of the lens, but it does double the size of thing you’re holding. I’m sure if you use a folio case long enough, you’d get used to it, but it was weird for this folio noob.
But let’s talk about the positives. You bought a folio case, or are looking at a folio case, because you want your phone case to double as your wallet. The case has two interior pockets with a portrait opening on top and one exterior pocket with a landscape style side opening. I noticed some other reviews complained about the pockets being too tight…um…duh. That’s kinda what I want in something holding my valuable pieces of plastic. I was able to fit one card in each slot easy enough, which is exactly what it’s made for. The outside pockets would be perfect for a couple of business cards.
GearBeast was kind enough to offer me both the 6 and the 6+ cases for review, and overall they’re remarkably similar. Other than size, they’re carbon copies of the other and function perfectly.
Overall, this case functions exactly as intended. It’s a great folio case that comes with all the cons of a folio style case but hits the pros of the style better than most.

LOVE the pop of color and the quality of this case. i love that the inside cover is soft. The extra pocket/slot on the back of the cover is so convenient! i carry my emergency cash in it all the time. People always complement the case-they love the color and the back slot, like me! =)

I received an email from the manufacturer asking if I would be willing to try out their product and post an honest review. I won't receive any compensation beyond the sample provided for review. Here it is-
This case-
-is designed to be slim and minimal.
-holds a license and two credit cards with no slippage whatsoever.
-has a small magnetic closure to keep the case closed.
-is constructed of a type of fabric (where the cards fit into inside) that resists tearing.
When I first opened this, my first thought was Really? I've sewn pretty much my entire life and I thought that the material that holds the cards inside would tear after use. So I stuck my fingers inside (obviously they are much thicker than a credit card) and pulled. Nothing. The fabric stretched a bit, but no tears or even a hint that the fabric was compromised. A very nice surprise. Then I tried the pockets out with credit cards to make sure that the somewhat stretched fabric would still hold them firmly and there was no problem.
So if the thought of losing your license or credit card because of an ill fitting pocket makes you break out in a cold sweat like me, rest assured it won't happen with this case. Between the design and price, I can definitely recommend this product.

The Gear Beast GearFolio Wallet is a nice phone case that also functions as a wallet. If you are in the market for an inexpensive case this may be for you.
Pros:
1. It is easy to install your phone. There are no bumpers to remove with this case. My iPhone 6 snaps right into the case. It really can’t be any easier.
2. The case has a durable rubber bumper that surrounds the whole phone. In addition to being impact resistant, the phone contours well to my hand and gives me a good grip on the phone.
3. This case seems to be tailor-made for the iPhone 6. It fits nice and snug with no slipping or shifting around in the case. I don’t need to worry about the phone falling out of the case.
4. The wallet is attractive. At this low price it isn’t reasonable to expect real leather and GearBeast is clear that this is a synthetic leather wallet. It may not be real leather but the wallet does look and feel nice. The wallet has two pockets on the inside and one on the outside for holding credit cards, cash, or ids. My credit cards fit into the pockets nice and tight so there is no chance of them falling out.
5. There is a magnetic closure that keeps the wallet closed.
6. Gear Beast included a cleaning cloth and screen protector with the GearFolio Wallet.
7. The GearFolio Wallet is backed by Gear Beast’s Lifetime Hassle-Free Warranty.

This is one of the best multi-function iPhone wallets that I have ever encountered. It's design manages to protect your phone while still allowing it accessible as well as provide a fair number of pockets for various cards that you may want to have on hand. Though the case is "synthetic leather", it has the feel of real leather and has a polished look and feel. I can't speak at this point in time to the longevity of it, but it does seem to be well-constructed and sturdy. The magnetic closure is effective, but easy to unlatch. The back piece is sturdy enough to protect against potential bending, but not so rigid as to crack or be uncomfortable in the pocket.
I really appreciate the engineering behind this in the attempts to make it highly usable with a good form factor and expand the utility of the case. I think that this case has got a no-frills, but packed with function and ease sense to it that makes it a great choice for someone wanting to take along the phone, but leave their wallet behind.

As far as folio cases go, this is a very good bargain. It’s not real leather, but if you’re looking to spend $13 on a case, you shouldn’t be expecting real leather. The synthetic leather has a nice feel, and the design is classy and elegant.
I have a folio case by Belkin that is essentially the same, except it sells for $30-40. I don’t see any reason to spend that much. The Belkin case is a little more rugged, but unless you are a perpetual phone-destroyer, this Gear Beast case ought to work just fine. This model also includes more space for cards than the Belkin.
This is totally sufficient, and it’s a great value. If you want a folio case, check this one out.

This is a fantastic solution for those who are trying to go light by combining a wallet with an Iphone case. I have spent a lot more money on cases for similar functionality and quality.
The case is constructed with with quality materials. In this case, unlike my more expensive solutions, it is made of some type of leather like material. I personally do not care if it is real leather and I know many who prefer synthetic materials. The design is minimal with perfect cut outs for power, camera and flash, speaker, jack, and volume control. The case design provides a decent amount of protection. However, it goes without saying that it does not compare to Otterbox cases in that regard. The design is also very stylish and I received quite a few compliments.
The Iphone seats very well in the retainer and it appears highly unlikely it could slip out even under extreme conditions I tried (over carpeting of course). There are slots for cards or even cash. However, they are somewhat tight at first but should loosen up enough to make use easier. There is a slot on back as well as inside the case. You can also close the case and continue talking using the cutout on the front cover for the earpiece. This, in my opinion, is very well designed and a feature not found in any of my much more expensive cases.
This case is a must have if you are looking for a folio case and you are willing to travel light in terms of what you carry. Perfect when on vacation and you do not want to carry a large wallet with items you will not need. Don't trick yourself into thinking you have to spend $50 to get a quality case. This is it. Note- I was provide a product sample for evaluation and a no obligation review. But, I just had my wife buy one.
