A few devices back I tried a wallet case for the first time. Most wallet cases I have tried are similar to a standard flip case with the exception of a few pockets to place cards in. Then there are the cases that hide the cards inside of them. The issue with both of this is extremely limited space when trying to completely get rid of the wallet. Anyways, a few days before I pre-ordered my device I looked at cases. I came across 2 wallet cases that I liked. I was only going to order the second case below, but after I did I showed my wife and she told me "It looks girly." So I ordered the first case below as well. So now I have 2 wallet cases on the way. They appear to be similar with the exception that one uses a battery to hold the device and the other uses a pocket that you slide the case on the phone into. Here are the links encase anyone else wants to order one.
1) Multi-function Genuine Zipper Wallet Leather Case Cover For Samsung Galaxy Note 7
2) Multi-function Wallet Detachable ID CARD Cover Case For Samsung Galaxy Note 7
I did order both in black. Just encase you are curious.

Anybody have any luck finding a case that is compatible with the new, thicker backplate?
I stopped by the Sprint store today and tried the new cover. My UAG case wouldn't fit. They showed me a Body Glove rubbery, flexible case which they said was the only one they'd found thus far that would fit over it.

I have the inCase tpu/hardshell case and that doesn't work. Coworker has the Verizon case/holster combo and that doesn't work either. I'm sure its just a matter of time, but curious to see if others had come across solutions.
Just ordered an Otterbox Commuter Wallet case. I think it would be perfect for outdoor activities. Anyone have this that could give me their opinion? I searched on here and didn't find anything. Spigen has a wallet case as well and it's a little slimmer but it's not shipping for another couple weeks plus it only holds two cards.
I don't have this but I am looking for a wallet case. I came across the Spigen one, but it's not in stock yet. When you do receive your case, can you make a review of it? I'm interested. Thank you

I've had the commuter wallet for about a month now. I love it.
Compared to a leather wallet case it has about the same dimensions but you could never compare the protection of the case.
I was extremely cautious in choosing a case, I cracked the screen on my last 2 phones that had substandard or no cases so there was no way I was going to give this one a chance, regardless of aesthetics - this one was always going to be about function over form. I can't stand carrying a wallet on top of a phone - keys in one pocket, phone in the other, not going to compromise any time soon. Commuter wallet contains debit card, drivers license and some bills with ease, can definitely fit another card if needed.
The wallet slot is very tough, I've been using it for a month and I would still say that it's a 2 hand operation to get it open and close it
It's not a pretty looking case, I have the white on black, it looks like a storm trooper, it feels like a tank and I have full faith in having it protect my phone until it's time to upgrade.

Definitely. Should have it Thursday, so I'll put up some pics and a short summary on Friday.

Sounds good. Thanks for the info!
I've been using my Otterbox wallet case all day. Let me just say that my search for a case is over. I love it. It's not as big as I was expecting and it feels solid as hell. Easily fits 3 cards or two cards and a couple bills. Excellent case with functionality and protection all in one. Sorry no pics, my 928 is dead haha.
I got my wife the Pink one and she uses all the time. Its a awesome case. I own just about every known brand case out there for the S5. My fav is the Life proof and Otter box Preserver.
I may eventually get the lifeproof but I'm really enjoying the wallet functionality of this case. I also like how the sound is routed through the bottom now. Tempered glass plus this commuter wallet gives great protection as well.
Extended battery
hmm any chance we can dremel the back casing for an extended battery? :fingers-crossed:
I was looking for a Wallet case for my Samsung Galaxy S5 with the OEM wireless charging back but found nothing. I got used to having a wallet case for 2 years on my SIII and I don't want to go back to carrying an additional bulky object in my wallet. As most wallet cases are just a PU leather flip case/wallet glued to a plastic shell I figured I could remove the wallet portion and glue it to a Samsung Qi Backplate. I ran into a problem however as neither E6000 nor JB Kwik Weld would adhere to the backplate material. Does anyone know of a glue or epoxy that will bond to the S5's backplate?
I am also in the same boat. Would like to know if you find a product. If there's none available I'm probably going to modify a wallet case so it suits my needs.
Reporting back. Ordered this case a few days ago. I got the i9100 extended battery covery and the similar 'slip over' silicon jobs that come with the wallet cases work. It was only $7 so I'm willing to give it a try!

hi,
since i have the samsung charging cover i am looking for a case, that fits.
But the most manufactors offers only cases for the regular note edge - means without the charging cover.
In the past i used "Qi Wireless Receiver pads (3rd Party)" for my Note 3 and i used the seidio surface. The charging works fine, even though there is the case between charging pad and charging station. I like to use the original charging cover, because it gets not so warm then the pads 3rd Party.
I love the cases from seidio and ask for such a case. Her is their answer:
"Hello,

Thank you,
Are there already cases on the market, for the Edge with original charging cover?
I have the UAG Maverick case.
I got it after my Edge cracked after falling with the Edge Wallet OEM Samsung Cover case failed to protect it (I know, its not supposed to), and had my Edge replaced under ADH warranty (best $99 I've ever spent) thanks to AT&T/Asurion.
I am using a white Wireless Cover charger back on a black phone (yes, in the US, got the white one from Korea because it was available and cheaper), and modded one as per the instructions here to fix the OEM Back, which will allow you to use ANY CASE with the OEM back. You simply remove the plastic cover on the OEM Wireless charger, and the plastic front, and follow the directions here, and it will fit your OEM back perfectly, and thusly, into any case. Did that on a friend's edge.
On my Edge, I gave up the Wallet and go the UAG Maverick Case, removed the OEM White back, and installed in into the phone and case because it looked cool. The UAG Maverick holds it against the back of the phone, and it works great, looks great, and is an awesome conversation starter.
So, if you take apart the OEM charging back, you can use whatever case you want with the OEM regular back in place.
Here's my photo of the UAG Maverick 'conversation starter':
I've just bought Note 9 from Amazon and wallet case with it - BENTOBEN Ultra Slim Thin Fit Folio Genuine Leather Kickstand Shockproof Credit Card Slots Protective Flip Cases
I also have in my car wireless charger. My problem is, whenever I put my phone in the charger, I have to remove it from the case. So I thought that I need to buy something like wallet case that enable me to use wireless charging. Is that thing even exist? I want wallet case cause I want to keep my credit cards with my phone.
Can you guys help me please?
I've been eyeing this wallet case made by Case-Mate on Amazon. I think I'm going to buy it. They claim it supports wireless charging without removing the phone.

My coworker has the same case for his Note 8 and said it works fine with his wireless chargers, so I think the Note 9 version should work.
You should have no issues using any wallet case with a wireless charger. The only reason you would have an issue is if the wallet case you have is either too think or is made with metallic elements.
