Going from a regular case to wallet case - difficult to use with one hand?

[KillerQ]

Hey all,

I have giant hands, and normally have always had regular protective cases in my phones. For some reason, I really want to try out a Nomad Leather Wallet case for my 7 plus.

95.87% of my daily use, however, is one-handed. Are these wallets difficult to pick up, open, and use with one hand?

Just look for some stories from others who have made the transition.

For me, very much so. Especially with smaller hands on my 7 Plus.
Texting and talking on the phone comes a huge PITA (not talking about the bread, here ).

I have teeny tiny girlie hands and wallet and flip cases are hard for me to use with both hands! I've fumbled every phone I've had a flip/wallet case on (SGS3, HTC M8, and Sony Xperia Z) so now I don't bother with them. They're especially weird when trying to use the camera, I found.

They are almost impossible to use one handed. I have tested and reviewed two such cases. One by VRS Design and one by Pad & Quill. Fantastic cases to use, but not one handed.

Yea, I'm over it.

The Pad and Quill wooden edge leather folios are absolutely amazing.

Pad & Quill certainly are. Best case I ever used, but they come at a premium price. I used them mostly as I ride a motorcycle and it was nice to have the money pocket and card holder. The only drawback was using it one handed was impossible.

I don't do wallet cases anymore. They were clumsy at best for me. I would rather have a traditional case on my iPhone.

Does yours have a lot of scratches? I bought the brown one last week and it is scratched all over already. I know there's going to be normal wear but this seems excessive. Thoughts?

My wife uses one on her 6S plus which she likes, it gets thrown in her handbag so probably a good choice for her. I have used a few, last one a Vaja agenda which i got cheap, was bulky and didnt really like the leather, i use my 7 plus in a brodit car holder and drive a lot for work so the wallet cases become a pain taking the phone out all the time, probably a good weekend case. Was looking at the otter box strata but reviews say they are hard to get in and out.
Will stick with my apple leather as its very easy to get my JB out when i want without scratching it.

Thats a good test photo, my hand is exactly same size Not sure about giant though i am using the apple leather so maybe your's are bigger what case is that?

I use the Casemate Folio clutch thing they released with the pebbled leather. I flip the card side back and then put the clasp over the card holder if that makes sense.

Loving it and I've managed to operate one handed.

I have a case really nice but it's a pain in the bum folding it every time. Like someone says photos are a nightmare. And l'm left handed

 

[o4liberty]

I have a wallet case for my Priv and for phone calls it's not easy to use rather prefer a regular case.

I've used flip cases and hate them. I don't really like cases anyway, but found the flip case extremely awkward. I only use my phones one handed as well.

Makes using the camera awkward IMO.
