Welcome to the future. But the futuristic Samsung Galaxy Fold is expensive, and you’ll want to keep it protected. Here are some of the best Galaxy Fold cases.
The Samsung Galaxy Fold has created a new category for smartphones: The foldable tablet phone. This means that manufacturers had to scurry to make cases and covers to protect this unusual design.
The best cases and covers for the Galaxy Fold need to accommodate the flexibility of the device. They also need to be protective, lightweight, and manageable in size. Since this device is so new, there aren’t many options available, but we found several good ones.
While the Galaxy Fold is unlikely to get confused for many other phones, it’s still nice not to have to hide it behind thick plastic. Otterbox’s Symmetry Series Flex is completely clear and allows you to show off your expensive phone to the world. It’s still protective though, being made from hard polycarbonate and shock-absorbent TPU. It will resist scratches, dirt, and smudgy fingerprints, while also providing good protection against drops and everyday hazards. On the minus side, while the two-part build protects the front and back of the phone, there’s no protection for the spine, which could be a turn off for those wanting complete coverage. It’s also very expensive.
If sleek, thin protection is preferable, Spigen’s Thin Fit case may be perfect for you. It’s made from thin but strong polycarbonate, and clips easily onto your phone. The tough material will deflect scratches and other such hazards, but it probably won’t fare as well against drops as a more absorbent material would.
