In addition to your phone, you can store your keys, cards, and other belongings.<\/p>\n<p>While it feels like the rest of the world is obsessed with Labubus, I\u2019ve stayed loyal to Monchhichi, a popular line of plush monkey dolls from Japan that I\u2019ve loved since I was a kid. So, when I saw that Sonix partnered with Monchhichi to design a line of smartphone accessories, I had to buy one.<\/p>\n<p>The <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/wirecutter\/out\/link\/74616\/225615\/4\/229991\/?merchant=Amazon\" class=\"product-link\" data-affiliate-link=\"true\" data-payload-expected=\"false\" rel=\"noreferrer sponsored nofollow noopener\" data-gtm-trigger=\"product_link\" data-store=\"Amazon\" data-pick-type-id=\"7\" data-vars-outbound-link=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/wirecutter\/out\/link\/74616\/225615\/4\/229991\/?merchant=Amazon\" data-vars-store=\"Amazon\" data-gtm-context=\"chapter_an-even-cuter-crossbody-carrier\" data-gtm-element=\"product_link_impression\" data-link-type=\"link\" data-merchant=\"Amazon\" data-pid=\"74616\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/wirecutter\/out\/link\/74616\/225615\/4\/229991\/?merchant=Amazon\">Sonix x Monchhichi Phone Wallet<\/a> has an adjustable strap, which allows you to wear it as a crossbody, and a pouch that fits your phone, keys, lip balm, and earbuds. It might not fit an entire wallet (unless yours is super small), but it does have an inner mesh pocket that you can use to securely store your credit cards and ID. Although it isn\u2019t as organized as Bandolier\u2019s Bodie Crossbody, which has separate compartments for each type of item, it fits as much stuff, if not a little more. The clear window on the front makes it easy for you to check your lock screen without having to take your phone out of the pouch. It\u2019s not as understated as the Bodie Crossbody, but its adorable print, with little Monchhichi heads scattered across it, is much cuter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Brenda Stolyar\/NYT Wirecutter Brenda Stolyar\/NYT Wirecutter Brenda Stolyar\/NYT Wirecutter If you want a crossbody that\u2019s more vibrant than&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":161500,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[2306,86,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-161499","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mobile","8":"tag-mobile","9":"tag-technology","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/161499","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=161499"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/161499\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/161500"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=161499"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=161499"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=161499"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
