Cute little book.
I bought this from the actual Apple store in Sacramento. I played around with it a bit before purchasing just to see if I was okay with how it sat in the case before purchasing. Here are somethings that don't knock any stars off, but you should be aware of:
It feels funny talking with the phone to your ear. I use an ear piece, bluetooth or speakerphone normally, so this is not a big deal to me.
Fits only a few credit cards/ID - 3 total. If you try to jam too many more than it looks bulky.
There is no hole in back for the camera. I answered a question on this that details a case I visually saw in the store (owner had taken case to shoe repair store and had them punch a perfect little circle) and he showed me that taking pictures was a not a problem. I haven't done this yet so I just move the camera up a touch out of the case and take the picture. No big deal to me, but if you are a serious camera user, maybe this isn't the case for you. I take a couple pictures a day and I am happy with it.
Basically, the case is not for the heavy user who will drop it, get it wet, or uses their camera a whole lot. If you have an iphone and carry it more than you use the functions, then this is for you. I use it quite a bit, but I accept the fact that there are some limitations. I won't subtract any stars because I bought it after playing with it and fully knowing the drawbacks ... full disclosure for myself :) …- Written by Heather S from Vacaville

LOVE this thing.
I almost didn't buy this because there is no hole for the camera and I didn't think I'd use it that much as a wallet, but I was wr ong! I am always switching out purses and wallets and now that I keep only the most important cards in my BookBook, I am good to go regardless of what purse I'm using! I get SO many compliments on it and it matches my laptop and ipad cases. Not having a hole for the camera IS a design flaw, but not that big a deal. It is easy enough to just shove it up an inch to take the pic. The leather is absolutely holding up well, and I have zero regrets about buying this great and unique little phone case! …

Almost perfect..
I've been very impressed with previous purchases I've made from Twelve South, and this one is no exception! There is enough room f or my drivers licence, health card, debit card, credit card, work ID and a small amount of cash. My old wallet was filled with store loyalty cards etc, which I have now digitized into my iPhone using the excellent app Lemon Wallet and Apple's passbook app. Two complaints I have are the lack of a hole in the back for the camera, and the volume and mute buttons are difficult to access (both of these issues have been addressed in the iPhone 5 version)
Those two issues aside I would recommend BookBook to any iPhone user! …- Written by Ed W from Alliston

This is the perfect case for me!
I have had this case for a year. People always ask me where I got it. I dont like purses so I need something that carries everythi ng important. I answer the phone in the wallet and text in the wallet. For short conversations it works fine. If its gonna be a longer conversation then I slide the phone out. Its very easy. So, when I leave the house I have my keys and this. Its great!. …

Isn't there a chance the magnetic field that the phone produces will demagnetize your credit cards or any RFID access cards you may carry?

Answer
I have a similar case that hold 3 cards and I've never had a problem with the magnetic strips. All have worked just fine. I've been using this case for 5 months now. Great case, very cool to have your cards with your phone. To see the case, just search amazon for Incipio Stowaway Credit Card Case for iPhone 4/4S …

Can I use the main camera (not just facetime) and flash without taking it out of the case?

Best Answer
I have this case and LOVE IT! All I did was borrow a leather hole punch, and punched a hole in the c ase where the camera lens is, and I never have to take it out of the case any more. This works great, and has not damaged the integrity of the design at all. It has been months since I did this, and I have experienced no problems. I have ordered the new iphone 5, and I sure hope they have a case like this for it!! …
