Review: Tactical wallet, locking case designed for AirTags
Apple’s tiny AirTag trackers haven’t even been available for six months, yet go to Amazon and you’ll find cases of all shapes and sizes. It can seem a bit overwhelming.
Now a brand known for its protective tech accessories has a few new options to safeguard your AirTags, including a sturdy locking case and a tactical wallet that also serves as an 8-in-1 multitool. Keep reading to find out if these AirTag accessories from Raptic are worth the price.
Raptic Tactical Wallet
First up, the Raptic Tactical Wallet with a built-in AirTag holder. It’s a leather wallet that carries cards, cash and a detachable multitool.

Here are the notable specs for the Raptic Tactical Wallet from the manufacturer:
8-in-1 stainless steel multitool: two screwdrivers (Phillips and flat head), wire cutter, box/letter opener, pry bar, bottle opener, hex head wrench and a ruler
Premium leather wallet that can hold 4 cards, or 2 cards plus folded bills
Take into account the size of the wallet and the fact that there’s a chunk of steel attached to it. Like so many other minimalist-style wallets available now, the first thing you should know is that this is NOT designed to be carried in your back pocket. It rides up front.
Carrying this wallet
I’m no stranger to front pocket wallets, finally making the switch earlier this year after carrying a traditional wallet for decades. Check out my previous review of wallets from another company called Ekster.
When Raptic sent this wallet for review, the first thing I did was pop in the AirTag. There’s an opening in the side of the leather that you use to push the tracker through to the polycarbonate enclosure in the center of the wallet. Then you just push the AirTag from the back until it clicks into place.
When you want to treat yourself to a latte at home, foamy milk is a must. Here are three excellent milk frothers good for coffee, tea or anything else you want to sip.
Handheld: The Milk Boss ($9.99) makes quick work of a cup of milk and also works great for mixing up matcha and protein powders.
Manual: Do your own milk frothing with “10 to 100” pumps of the plunger in this stainless steel model ($18.97), which, by the way, is pretty enough to sit out on the table.
Automatic: All it takes is one button to warm your milk and get it foamy with this electric frother ($33.99). Or skip the heat and make cold foam for iced lattes.
