This is my review of the Gmyle Book Case Vintage wallet/folio case available on Amazon (http://amzn.com/B013JT6FWU) and Gmyle store (http://www.gmyle.com/collections/sam...ant=5982038657).
This folio/wallet case is made of PU leather but the material looks and feels like leather. The bookcase design is original and adds a nice touch to the phone. The spine of the case has some nice gold patterns that remind of old book designs.
Inside the case, you will find 3 card slots and one id slot on the left, as well as a pocket for cash. The plastic case holding the phone is black and is made of flexible plastic. I’m not sure if this is the same material as that used in the Galaxy S5 case, which a lot of users criticized for falling apart after a few days. The phone sits pretty tightly in the plastic sleeve. However, the sleeve is so flexible that I’m not sure whether the phone would effectively remain attached to it in case of a fall. Cutouts allow easy access to all the ports and the S-pen is easy to pull.
The case adds some bulk to the phone. When the wallet is closed, the total thickness is 0.75”. However, the case seems to provide a higher level of protection than bumpers and other slim cases. In particular, the thick PU material adds some cushion, which may be able to absorb some energy during a fall. The back of the case is pre-folded to allow the case to act as a stand maintaining the phone in a comfortable landscape viewing position. One limitation of the bookcase design is the lack of a cutout on the front cover, which prevents the use of the phone for a call with the case closed. The thickness of the case in the closed position may also make this case incompatible with car docks/holders.
Summary: Overall, this is a great wallet case at this price level. If you're more interested in an authentic leather case and you don't mind paying extra, I recommend the Davis Case (reviewed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note...kcase-t3198304)
Pros:
- original design that will make your Note 5 stand out of the crowd
- nice texture and color for PU material
- cheap
Cons:
- no easy phone call with the case closed
- no auto awake/sleep feature
- may require the need for a screen protector to prevent the cards located in the card slots from rubbing against the screen
