Leather iphone 11 pro max wallet case

Wallet cases for iPhone serve two useful purposes: they both protect your handset and give you a place to store your bank and ID cards. Our favorite wallet case for the iPhone 11 Pro Max, the Nomad Rugged Folio, also has room for some cash. We've included other cases here that may better match your needs for this well-received iPhone model.

Best Overall: Nomad Rugged Folio

Leather cases aren't necessarily the strongest ones around, although we like this one from Nomad. Built with a high-grade polycarbonate body and bonded to a raised TPE bumper, the Rugged Folio offers protection for your screen while preventing damage from drops at all angles. Offering 6-foot drop protection, the Rugged Folio for the iPhone 11 Pro Max features Horween Leather, creating a patina over time. Inside you'll find enough slots for some cash and up to three bank cards.

The Nomad Rugged Folio is also available in brown and black. The biggest downside: This one is pricey. You can read more about the Nomad Rugged Folio in our dedicated review.

Best Value: Spigen Slim Armor CS

If you need to store a few bank cards alongside your iPhone 11 Pro Max but would rather not go with leather, consider the Spigen Slim Armor CS. Lightweight and economical, the case features a TPU interior and polycarbonate exterior. The Spigen Slim Armor CS only holds two banking or ID cards with no room for cash; available in black, gunmetal, and rose gold.

Best Premium: Apple Leather Folio

The Apple Leather Folio has been designed to be seen while providing adequate protection for your iPhone. It uses specially tanned and finished European leather for a comfortable feel and snug fit. It's available in five colors. The built-in magnets guarantee that the case also shuts when not in use, while the soft microfiber lining keeps your phone's textured matte glass backing in great shape. However, it has just a little bit of room for cards and cash; not the most spacious.

Best Color Selections: LUPA Wallet Case

When it comes to leather cases for your iPhone, there usually aren't many color choices. Not so with LUPA's Wallet Case, which is available in eight different versions, including a very striking black and gold combo. Each case comes with a handy strap so it doubles as a clutch.

The Lupa includes room for three credit cards, cash, or IDs. There's also a magnetic closure for a more secure fit and raised edges around the screen and camera for protection.
