As I may try to return it (or sell it) I do not want handle or challenge it more than necessary. Better ask someone who ordered a colour they like, to discover it's full capacity

If you tell me the dimension of your phone, I can tomorrow see whether I believe it would work
fair enough! The dimensions of my phone are 6.33 inches Tall, 3.07 inches wide, and .30 inches thick.
thank you so much!

I'm glad you love both the large and the mini! If it's not too much trouble...would you be able to post a side by side photo?? I'm sorry to hear you're not thrilled with the color.My Black Neuf and Blush Neuf Mini have arrived
I was a bit worried the full sized would be too large and the Mini too small, but no,- the full sized is smaller than I thought and the Mini is larger than I thought
Ooh la la, the full sized black
I own very many lovely bags, but I actually believe my "Neuf Noir" is one of the top 3 in gorgeousnes. It is SO beautiful. Love the design. Love the leather. Hangs elegantly on long shoulder strap
The Blush Neuf Mini... Hmm.
I love the size! Great for an evening bag. I find it easy to access the interior.
I love the shape,- so cute, quirky yet elegant. The "tall" handle really becomes it. And the leather is lovely.
But personally, I do not like the blush colour.
Because to me, it is more neutral than pink. More "foundation" than "blush". And I am not a gal who wears warm neutrals... I do not even like warm neutrals
Of course one can wear a neutral coloured bag together with non-neutral clothes....
I have been holding the bag up against various colours. It looks more pink next to white. I quite like it then. Problem is I don't ever wear whites... Next to colours (greens, blues, mauves, wine, reds, even black) I perceive it as "heavy foundation" coloured. Too much yellow pigments. Do not get me wrong,- it ain't yellow. Merely a rich, warm neutral with a pink tint.
So this bag is beautiful but not for me. I wonder if Polene do exchanges?
Black would work for me, or Burgundy. ( I'd love it in a cool grey or a mid blue!)
Side-by-side photo I can doI'm glad you love both the large and the mini! If it's not too much trouble...would you be able to post a side by side photo?? I'm sorry to hear you're not thrilled with the color.
, but will need to wait until the weekend
You could probably pack just a little more in the Umi than the one mini due to the zip closure. If you over pack the one mini it’s a little difficult to close. Without stuffing the bags they pretty much the same.
I can speak for the Dix. I have a large wallet and it fits, along with other essential items. I downsized from a bucket bag that was driving me crazy and seemed like a black hole. Enjoying this pared down experience.
Hi everyone! I’m new here (actually signed up so I can monitor this Polene thread and join in the fun!).
I have the Numero Dix (Black) and Numero Un Nano (Taupe). Both great choices btw! Now I’m wondering about the Douze/Cyme. Can anyone be so kind to share the dimensions (top and middle sections) of the Cyme and Cyme Mini when they are in the cinched up shape (tulip? Not boat), please? I think the dimensions on the website are the maximum size (so probably the boat shape). Thank you!

thank you so much! I have the mini one (backpack version), and I'm considering the umi.. I wish the umi fits more than the one, but after seeing a couple of pictures I kind of expect that they fit about the same amount.
Am I the only one who keeps having bad experience at Polene? Now that I finally had my correct Beri (they sent me first a wrong bag) - the new one is in my opinion defect. Firstly it was clear that the bag was potentially a return or something as it wasn't properly wrapped but in a dust-bag already and bubble wrap removed. Additionally the closures don't seem right, the one that I received before had very strong closure both the magnetic as the slider. Now this one feels like the slider might open any time on its own and the magnetic closure barely holds. This is now 3rd time i have issue with them 1st Sept closure was broken when I received it 2) wrong item sent to me 3) now this defected item sent to me. Contemplating not buying from them again or giving one more chance to send me a proper Beri.
I’m sorry that you are having a bad experience with them. There definitely seems to be some hit or miss things going on with their quality control and customer service.
The first bag I bought from them was the Un Mini and the suede flap was more marked up than it should have been. They said this was normal, so I had to pay to send it back for an exchange, which did not make me very happy with them. But the next one was fine, and since then I’ve purchased the Un Nano and the Cyme, and both were perfect upon arrival.
Good luck with your decision on whether or not to try again. I hope if you do, that they are able to resolve it fully this time!
Here you go. This is the smaller Cyme.
It’s like 9” across the top, 12” at the widest, 7” at the bottom, like 5” at the deepest, and like 12/13” tall to the short handles.
Dear @kombucha, I do not believe your phone and the Mini Neuf are compatible
.If you manage to wedge the phone into the bag
, you will have missed your calls long before you manage to wiggle the phone out of the bag.My Samsung S8, less than 6 inches long and only 2.5 inches wide, works with the bag. But even I might miss my calls...

As I wrote a few days ago, I love the Mini Neuf but hate the colour Blush. So I am returning it.
Here are the comparison photos I promised,- Full sized Neuf and Mini Neuf.
(The camera on my phone is not able to catch the Blush colour at all, but at least it gives an indication of difference in size)
