I’ve had the 3X for going on 4 years now and I just absolutely love this wallet. I don’t see myself going back to a regular wallet again. You’re absolutely correct that when you drop it, it does explode, but only the things you put in the back of the inside wallet where the money clip is. Everything else stays attached. I’d say this is the only flaw about this wallet, but if you’re someone that doesn’t drop your wallet often then it’s perfect 👌🏽 I use the rubber band daily for holding receipts, cash, Costco card, etc, and after 4 years it’s starting to wear out, but could honestly last me another 2-3 years though. I would suggest replacing it with the card clip attachment that you showed towards the end of the video. I plan to upgrade soon to the FlipSide 4. Thanks for the video!

I have had a flipside 3X in my back pocket since March 2014. Originally bought the gray and I went with a black one like two years later. I wish I received commission on how many wallets have been base of my enthusiastic explanation of the wallet when people ask me about it. Truly is the best wallet out there. I’m trying to find a way to remove the RF ID metal plates just to increase capacity a bit.

I used my 3x for 10 years and now that the Flipside 4 is out I bought it. My 3x goes in my backpack with business cards and my new F4 is the one I’ll be using for work everyday. I have a Dango Maverick 1 Spec-Ops Bifold 4 Pocket DTEX for going out and church. Great wallets! No more buying cheap wallets that get bulky and you have to replace them very often. Even the cheap ones become expensive over time. It’s better to get an expensive one right off the bat so you won’t be buying cheap wallets often. My old 3X still works and will probably last me another 10 years, but hey, having these other wallets sure makes the investment last literally a lifetime! 👍😁👌

I was skeptical but after a year its the best wallet Ive ever owned. If you need to carry 40 cards and bunch of useless stuff its not a good choice. When I first got it my kids thought it was really dumb but after opening and closing it a few times to get cash or borrow my gas card they remarked that they thought it was pretty cool and more functional than any other wallet. I always keep my wallet in my front pocket so its a natural fit, back pocket might be annoying. Great review

I have used a Jimi Wallet for years. It is simple and minimal. The more you carry the more you lose if wallet it lost! I bought two back in the day @ $8.50 each on Ebay. The only problem I had was that over a long time the money clip will crack! Regardless I still use one with a metal security chain lanyard. I lined it with aluminum foil for RFID security. Cheap and simple , but it works for me

I’m surprised you didn’t mention that the flipside logo on the new 4 doesn’t have a hole which exposes the RF ID metal plate. I always thought that was kind of bogus looking. Also just an idea how about epoxying an apple AirTag on the outside of the wallet? I epoxied a badge on the outside of mine, which is a little bit bigger than an apple AirTag, and it’s been on there for 3+ years in my back pocket no problem.

I have the 3X for close to 3 and half years now, I do the same thing with the waller finder, I use an *Orbit Card* which is not as popular or well known as the Tile brand but for me it works fantastic, as it a lot slimmer than the tile slim and I put it behind the money flip as well and gets the same result. I when with the Orbit Card because of the rechargeable capability that Tiles does not have as well as the thinness that of a regular credit/debit card.
