Speck’s Presidio Good-Clear Fold, certainly one of my favorites for the Galaxy Z Flip 3, returns for the Z Flip 4. The Presidio Good-Clear Fold is rated for 13-foot drop safety, and it is essentially the most protecting clear case I attempted, though there is no hinge safety. It is available in a wonderfully clear model and one imbued with glitter. (Notice that the picture above is with the Galaxy Z Flip 3 however the Z Flip 4 model needs to be almost similar).

It is protecting, it has a pleasant soft-to-touch end and there is that in-built ring that helps forestall you from dropping the telephone — and you may as well clip the ring to a lanyard and put on the telephone round your neck. Alas, whereas I might type of prop the telephone up utilizing the ring on sure surfaces, I might have preferred the case much more if it actually transformed right into a kickstand. 

The case is available in a number of colours.

I did not like Otterbox’s Skinny Flex case for the Galaxy Z Flip 3. It felt low-cost and was laborious to get off your telephone as soon as you set it on. However the brand new model for the Galaxy Z Flip 4 is a lot better and is available in translucent choices, a few which have coloured trims (the pacific reef coloration is proven in picture). Whereas it has a two-piece design and no hinge safety, it now seems and looks like a premium case.

Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 4 Flap Leather-based Cowl is an improve over final yr’s Leather-based Cowl case for the Galaxy Flip 3, because it incorporates a flap for hinge safety. It is costly, however good — and slim. Out there in three coloration choices (black, peach and purple), the most important knock in opposition to it’s that it is costly, however we’re already seeing reductions on it.

You will discover a bunch of generic clear instances on Amazon for the Galaxy Z Flip 4, a number of of which price lower than $15. The Restone is fascinating as a result of whereas it is technically a two-piece design with no hinge safety (for the Z Flip 4’s hinge), it does characteristic a hinge of its personal that retains the 2 items collectively and helps forestall them from slipping off the telephone. It additionally has a bit of additional nook safety. (I have not used this explicit Restone case but however I’ve used a Restone case on one other telephone and it was tremendous, notably for its low worth). 

All these cheap clear instances say they’ve anti-yellowing safety (to maintain your clear case from dropping its readability), however I do not actually consider these anti-yellow claims.

Spigen makes a number of instances for the Galaxy Z Flip 4. As its title implies, the Robust Armor is sturdy and gives essentially the most safety in Spigen’s line. It is also the one Spigen case that has an built-in protecting protecting for the hinge.

So far as protecting instances go, it is one of many higher ones and is simply lacking an built-in kickstand. I additionally type of want it got here in additional colours. Black is the one possibility for now. Count on to see worth drops on it within the coming weeks.

You slide your hand beneath the strap (and behind the telephone), which lets you get a grip and maintain on to your telephone with out actually wrapping your fingers round it. It is basically a safety strap. The strap additionally gives a little bit little bit of safety for the hinge while you fold up the telephone. Moreover, you may connect the top of the strap to a lanyard or clip it to a different strap (say, on a bag or backpack). 

Apart from having some utility, the strap additionally appears designed to carry some consideration to your telephone.

Gear4’s Bridgetown case shares some similarities with Spigen’s Robust Armor case (see beneath). It, too, is a tricky case that solely is available in black and has some good hinge safety. The case seems much like the model for the Z Flip 3 however the brand new model is a bit sleeker and the hinge protector has been improved. It is among the best protecting instances for the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4. I solely want it have been out there in additional colours, or a transparent model.

Sure and no. Your previous Z Flip 3 case could match in your Z Flip 4 — and keep on it — however there are some small variations of their design (and dimensions) which will make it a less-than-perfect match. For example, the flashlight on the Zip Flip 4 is a barely totally different location than the flashlight on the Z Flip 3 and will not be centered within the cutout on a Z Flip 3 case. Additionally, the highest microphone could get partially lined should you use a Z Flip 3 case with a Z Flip 4. You possibly can attempt your previous case together with your new telephone to see how effectively it matches (and probably attempt to modify it barely), however there is a good probability you’ll have to get an official Z Flip 4 case for it.

Nearly all of Galaxy Z Flip 3 instances got here in two items. However with the Z Flip 4, we’re seeing extra one-piece instances that do provide some hinge safety. If that is one thing you are on the lookout for, a number of of those picks will defend the hinge.

As with the Galaxy Z Flip 3, Samsung does not promote — or enable anyone to promote — display protectors for the primary entrance display of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4. The Z Flip 4 makes use of a high-tech bendable show that’s geared up with Samsung’s personal pre-applied display protector (some individuals had points with it peeling on the Z Flip 3 and easily took it off). You will discover a handful of display protectors for the mini exterior show.

Most however not all of the instances on this record mean you can wirelessly cost the Z Flip 4 with the case on. People who characteristic an built-in kickstand, notably if it is made out of steel, could require you to take away the case to cost your telephone wirelessly.
