Has an upscale appearance overall and the construction itself also seems quite good, stitching is perfect. Interior is a pleasant tan suede material so it not only grips the cards when folded over for reduced movement but also doesn't compete with your screen visually. Of prime importance to me, I have 7 cards in its two pockets (tight but it works) and one or two cash bills in the money slot AND it still closes reliably with a solid meet-up of magnets. It's padded enough for good protection but not so much that it's bulky. Outside is smooth like leather yet not slippery. Tip: If you don't want a screen protector, as I don't, I slipped a business card partly into the lower of the two pockets, sticking out far enough so it covers the inside edge of the top pocket's credit card and also its own - that stops that hard plastic card from rubbing against and eventually marring the screen glass. Its only fail is not holding "stand" position without added support to prop it, but that's easy. I really like this case a lot, solid 5 stars.
