Here's the dimensions of that bag 8.25"W x 4.75"H x 3.25"D. So it depends on how big your phone is. The 8.25"w is not accurate at all because they probably had measured it from the outside and not from the interior of the bag. I have an iPhone pro max and it barely fit inside I have to take the case off and place my phone in an angle. The dimension of 3.25' is tad small so this is more of an evening bag where you can only carry the most basic essentials (key , lipstick and a small card holder) if you add your phone and wallet you won't be able to close the bag and if you're lucky you were able to do it , it looks weird and deformed on the side. I was heavily considering this bag in cream after seeing it in Harrod's in London as it could be a cute wallet in chain but for some reason I didn't pull the trigger of buying it. I don't know. Maybe I don't like how small it is? Maybe the price? Too expensive for such a small bag? As for the smooth calf leather yes they scratch.
