Apple's MagSafe wallet space has a new competitor The Nomad wallet has a mix of classic design, strong functionality, and advanced tracking features that put Apple’s own wallet to shame, though at a higher price.

This is very different from Apple’s MagSafe wallet, which has much more limited tracking. Apple’s wallet only tracks where it was last attached to the phone. If the wallet falls off or is left behind, you only see its last connected location, not where it is now.

Whether the wallet is lost at home or somewhere else, its exact location can be found, adding an important layer of security and peace of mind for the items inside. This full tracking ability is a major step forward for accessory location. With its full Find My support, the Nomad wallet gives a practical and more reliable way to find the wallet. I would question why I'd buy a $60 wallet from Apple that doesn't have the best features Apple provides.

At its heart, the Nomad Leather Mag Wallet looks really good and shows careful craftsmanship and a focus on durability. It is made with Horween leather, a material known for its quality and toughness. What's interesting is that it has a natural aging process thanks to using real, high-quality leather.

Basically, the wallet is not just a practical accessory but one that develops a unique, worn-in look over time, making it look better as it's used. Apple's wallet isn't even made of leather, so why would it cost so much if the material isn't as good?

When it comes to storage, the Nomad Leather Mag Wallet can hold between one and four standard credit cards. This will allow it to keep its slim design while being useful.

The Nomad Leather Mag Wallet also offers great power and convenience. It can be wirelessly charged on any Qi or MagSafe charger, making it widely compatible, regardless of what you have. This removes the need for special charging cables and simplifies owning the wallet. Once fully charged, the wallet lasts an impressive five months on a single charge.

This long battery life means you rarely need to recharge it, which is great because not many people lose or have their items stolen after charging them. It usually happens after it's been used for a while, but with this wallet, you know you'll be able to track it for long periods without any stress.

You can get the Nomad Leather Mag Wallet for $80 on the official website. That's definitely expensive, but there aren't many other MagSafe wallets with true Find My support, so the premium cost is at least somewhat justified.
