Secrid

Having worn out a leather wallet over the years I thought I’d look for something much slimmer and less of a faff; so here we are with the secrid. I opted for the silver finish, so the lever at the bottom is black. It’s very small in stature, to the point there is virtually no trouser bulge like a regular leather item. The finish is good, and I have yet to scratch it during use. There isn’t a great deal to go wrong with this, when using the lever the action is smooth and takes minimal effort to eject the cards. I like that it separates the cards on release, so you can pick out which you need rather than them all being at the same level. I comfortably carry a mix of 5 embossed and non-embossed cards without issue, obviously you can fit more if you go for flat cards. I read reviews on here for paying £20, and I’d suggest that the current price of £44 is inflated for the item. When compared with similar items however they are going for even more. I’m okay with the current price, but for such a simple device I think it should be cheaper. Security wise I have tested it and have been unable to activate any of my cards using a card reader when inserted fullly in to the case. Good quality and I think will last, good value for money…..not so sure.

Great design very slim so fits in your pocket without giving you a wallet bulge. 4 stars because you can only get 4 embossed (UK credit) cards in it. this would be fantastic if a little thicker so you can get 6 embossed cards in. I have had to purchase a second one for my other cards. I would recommend the double one because of this, it would still be slimmer than most other card holders and is less expensive than two. Very well made product, no issues with the lever.

This is by far the best RFID card holder on the market, the revues for other models clearly show that most of them do not last long. My only criticism is that the SECRID holder only holds 5 cards and not 6 cards as advertised, the reason being is that most credit cards are embossed and this makes them slightly thicker than cards such as driving licences. The strength of this product is in its simple design and the fact that it seems to be made from a single piece of alloy. SECRID do make a thicker version but this is just two cases stuck together, if they come up with an 8 to 10 card version they would capture the market.

If you no longer carry cash then this is for you and your cards. Not only does it protect your cards from damage but also from Radio frequencies. These are in tap and pay machines in stores and can be used by hackers to access your cards. But not in this protected card holder. This card holder is minimalist and keeps your cards safe, organised and protected. I have been using Secrid card protector since 2019. This purchase was a gift. I highly recommend this Secrid card protector.

I bought this card holder for my husbands birthday in May and waited for review it. You know when you buy something new is great in the beginning and after a while you regret. But this is complete opposite! My husband never carried any type of wallet before, always all money and cards in a pocket. When I gave him this, it never happened again. He loves it. This card protector is small but still big enough to easily fit 5 credit cards there (or 4 card with emboss numbers and 2 without as driving licence), fashionable and useful. He always says that it perfectly fits in the trousers pocket, it slips there so it is easy to put in or take it out, but hard to loose, coz you can feel it. It has no scratch even if he carry it every single day since. The only regret I have is that I did not buy it earlier...

I really like the design of this sleek cardholder. It offers a lot of protection for the cards but just in cosmetics but also the protection of it being swiped. It is very useful as I travel around a lot. My only negative points are that the components inside I'm not as durable as outside. With my cardholder the arm that pushes the card out is just plastic and it has started to stick and ware down. Everyting you push the card out I hear an awful scraping sound :( might just be a faulty product

Very slim and very mechanism works well. Can hold 6 cards but works better with 5 only because of the raised letters on certain cards if only 1 or 2 of your cards has raised letter then it will work fine with 6. The mechanism is really cool and when you press it, it displays all your cards like in the picture so you can easily access all of the cards even the ones in the middle. The build quality is really good and it feel like a well made product.

I bought this for my hubby who carries a few cards but hates it when his wallet gets fat. There were other options that were cheaper, but in this case the expense was worth it. He loves it! It's not big and bulky, easily fits his pocket, and allows quick access to his favorite cards. It was just what he needed without being what he didn't (money clip, added compartments, extra bulk). He was very pleased with my purchase.

the latch to release the cards is not smooth this is arguably the most importent thing to get right on this kind of wallet and this product fails to deliver on my expectation

Edit 10-08-16 - now 3 years later and the wallet is still great. Cards still securely held and though I was worried about the fanning mechanism breaking, it has survived drops woth no damage. The anodizing has worn off a bit on the corners but too badly. I found that by putting the embossed cards facing each other that you can get more items in the holder. I currently have 4 embossed cards, an ID and thick insurance card woth room for one more. This is by far the best wallet I have ever had. Wallet will hold up to 6 credit card sized items. It does not handle thin paper cards well (like insurance cards) so I stuck all of mine into a card pocket (much like the RFID protection pockets) to give more girth. Due to the extra material from the pocket I am only able to get 5 items in mine. It holds everything snugly, though not so tight that it is hard to insert or remove them. I have dropped it a few times and the cards do come out a bit, but no more than a 1-2cm. The mechanism to fan out the cards is very simple and only has one moving part. You press down on the lever on at the bottom and it swings to the other side. Inside the wallet is a piece of plastic with 'steps' cut into it that push each card to a different height. There is no way to carry cash in this wallet, but there are many option to remedy that. Many don't carry cash at all anymore either. I currently use a binder clip to hold my cash to the wallet. I am also considering adding an adhesive pocket clip of a cell phone to it to use and a money clip. There is also a model of the wallet that has a leather wrap-around that holds additional cards and a place for cash. It may be a bit expensive, but I have gone though several wallets in the last 10 years at about $20-$30 a piece. They all end up falling apart at the seams and get stretched out to the point that my cards fall free at random. So even if it only lasts a couple of years it is cheaper in the long run. The leather wallets are also thicker and heaver empty that this is loaded. This wallet forces you to cut down to what you really need, and to keep the receipts and other junk out of your pockets.

Robusta, pequeña y muy útil para los que llevamos lo mínimo. Buena marca.
