First impressions? The lavender PU leather with embossed floral design is *gorgeous*—way prettier than the product photos. It feels luxe (not cardboard-like, despite one review’s claim) and adds a feminine touch to my A16.

The magnetic closure snaps shut securely, and the included wrist strap is sturdy—though the clasp is annoyingly stiff. I ditched the strap, but love the 3 card slots (fits cards snugly) and bill pocket. RFID blocking works—no sketchy scans at coffee shops!

BUT: The ‘color-changing’ gold detailing? Just light reflection, not actual morphing hues. Also, the inner pink patterned lining feels cheap compared to the exterior. Kickstand’s handy for Netflix binges, though it wobbles slightly.

Drop protection? Solid! Survived two tumbles from my purse unscathed. Just note: wireless charging doesn’t work through this case.

Verdict: 4/5 stars. A stylish, functional pick if you prioritize looks + card storage over high-tech features.
