REVIEW – Hackers are always in the news. One of the latest schemes is RFID skimming where an electronic reader in close proximity to an RFID-enabled card, like a credit card, reads the pertinent payment information from the card. This allows the thief to perform contactless transactions as if they had tapped the physical card

NEWS – I’ve been a fan of Trayvax wallets ever since I reviewed the Trayvax Summit minimalist wallet back in 2016. Their newest product is also a wallet, but it’s a wallet that you can wear like a shoulder bag. It’s the Roam Clutch and it’s being marketed towards women which seems like a mistake

REVIEW – I’m always on the lookout for my next favorite wallet. For the last 6 months, my favorite has been the AKEENi XSTO minimalist wallet that I reviewed back in December. It’s always going to be one of my favorites because it has the Gadgeteer logo engraved on it. But I recently received the

NEWS – The Fusion Wallet is…interesting… It’s made of 13 separate pieces of CNC aluminum. With a quick glance, you might think it’s a trendy minimalist wallet like any one of the Ridge wallet copies. But except for the fact that it’s made of aluminum, the Fusion Wallet is definitely not a minimalist wallet. It’s

REVIEW – Even when we don’t carry a lot these days, we still carry a lot. Usually, that involves a big old smartphone plus a wallet. Many times you don’t need the whole wallet – just a driver’s license, a credit card, and perhaps a couple of small bills. If only there was a way

REVIEW – Several years ago, I decided that I was done with conventional style pocket wallets and would only use slim wallets with RFID protection. Over the past few years, I have tried several slim wallets including some well-known brands. I quickly decided that none of them worked to carry both my paper money and

REVIEW – I am not your normal female in that I do not enjoy lugging a purse around with me every day. I am very minimalist when it comes to how I carry around cash and cards. I tend to stick to minimalist wallets that fit easily in my front pocket (even those lame, not

REVIEW- The Ekster Parliament wallet used to be a windshield. I wondered if I’d cut myself during this review but no fingers were harmed in the evaluation of this wallet. The Parliament is a bi-fold wallet made from polyvinyl butyral and an aluminum card case. That may not sound romantic but it looks pretty good.

REVIEW – I’ve been a fan of the phone/wallet combination ever since the iPhone 4 and my thick, leather book-type case. Now, with MOFT’s Snap-on Wallet and the iPhone 12’s built-in magnet technology, wallet cases can now attached directly to the phone itself. What is it? The MOFT Snap-on Wallet is a thin, MagSafe-compatible card

NEWS – Here at the Gadgeteer, we love writing about and reviewing wallets. However, we tend to focus on minimalist wallets because they keep our EDC light and easy to manage.

REVIEW – I rarely use cash anymore, so all I need is a thin minimalist wallet that can hold my most used credit cards. For the last 4 years, I’ve been using the Identity Card Wallet, which is no longer being made or sold. The one I have now is still perfectly usable, but I

REVIEW – The term “tactical” (ambiguous as it may be) has been thrown around a lot in the past few years, applied to everything from pants to pocketknives. So why not wallets, too? Today, we’re taking a look at the TAQ Wallet from Quiqlite. What is it? The TAQ Wallet is a self-proclaimed “WORLD’S ONLY”

REVIEW – Apple has gotten a LOT of my money this year. In May I decided to switch from my Hauwei P30 Pro to an iPhone 11 Pro Max and then just a week ago I received a shiny new iPhone 12 Pro Max. Despite their new frosted glass backs, iPhones are notoriously slippery. I
