Uhm... on top of not having my phone as my single payment method... where should I carry my id and driver's license and medical card if not in the wallet? Should I carry them loose in the pocket? Or in my bag? Why? That's so unconvenient and in the long term ends up damaging them.
I barely keep my phone on me, period. I hate the thing.
I have a job that prohibits me from having a phone during working hours. It broke me of my dependency and now ive notice people getting irritated if i dont respond in minutes. Some days, they'll just have to wait til 5 until I can check it again.
But it's also made me so much less attached. I regularly dont have it on me
It's my companion for the restroom. If you text me any other time, it's going to be at least 5 minutes before I notice.
What is your secret? The doom rectangle cannot be evaded…
I just hate being bothered. Thats pretty much my entire secret. When I first got a smartphone I cracked the screen chucking it in the next room because the damn thing wouldnt stop buzzing.
So, Gen z just like doesn't carry those or will have maybe one at a time if they have to just hanging loose. Yeah, it's weird.
Gen z here, I do use a wallet but many people use these sticky wallets that you slap on the back of your phone case to hold their cards.
I don't use them because 1. what if something slips out somehow and 2. damn you lose your phone and wallet in one.
We don't just leave shit hanging loose lol. We still have credit cards and drivers licenses to hold.
Some would argue that is still a wallet, just a wallet with a magnet to attach to stuff.
There is no argument to be had here. That is literally a wallet.
i had one of those wallet phone cases and lost my phone. luckily it was at pride and whoever found it was not an asshole. tracked the phone and got it back, and thankfully didnt get my card used or stolen. i learned that day.
(i only lost it that once. just my luck lol)
But then that comes with the tradeoff of being unable to use Qi charging
I got a magnetic one that you can snap off to charge wirelessly.
I have one of these that has a tracker in it, so even if my phone dies, I can find both my wallet and my phone.
I usually get plastic sleeves with those, so yes, I just have a stack of cards in my pocket. At least I can fit it in together with a phone.
Although I don't know how to deal with coins. A jacket brings me extra pockets at least, which is why I can more or less only use cash during winter.
Buying a wallet requires a choice. Searching for something right, and I am too lazy for that, so in the pocket it goes. Unfortunately, I often lack pockets. So if I am not traveling, I'll just leave out my phone, so I can still fit in keys, cards, and a shopping bag. After all, I don't need a phone most of the time anyway.
I have a 3d printed card holder I made.
Is that not just a wallet?
My thought exactly. A decade or so ago my back was hurting and I decided to try a different style of wallet. Upgraded to a better one when I realized it works for me.
Even if all I have in it are cards, id, and a single dollar bill, it's still a wallet, just doesn't leave me sitting at an angle. Yeah I had a Costanza wallet going on.
I use one of those minimalist wallets, and I would describe it as a card holder with an elastic for cash.
Not sure, there seems to be some debate on the subject.
