Best And Worst Cases for Galaxy Z Fold 5

[@TheSaturyn]

Is there no case that comes with a slim design while offering Pen Holder and Kick Stand? I don't see myself carrying two slide-ins where ever I go so it's pretty much limiting my options to one or the other...

[@arikawa9575]

Yee probably only the official one at the moment, i just wished it also covers the hinge. I dont mind buying an adhesive stand.

[@mslafay7]

I ordered NINKI Compatible Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 Phone Case with Screen Protector & Kickstand Champagne Gold,Heavy Duty Protective , but it's taking forever to get here.

[@channelMasterGuiGame]

​@@mslafay7that hinge is the last part you gotta worry about its stainless steel

[@mslafay7]

@channelMasterGuiGame they say, once dust gets in the cracks of the hinge, it starts to have problems because it's dust resistant. But I have the clear ringke case now and I love it. I'd still like a case with a s pen holder and stand.

[@johnnynguyen3521]

Nilkkin Z Fold 5 cases might be what could meet your needs.

[@krazie2869]

As a ZF5 user I can appreciate all your efforts on this! It seems this year there is a drought on reliable cases to use and with even major companies still not having the case even available to purchase yet!! I'm a minimalist with an already chunky boy, I've heard good things about pitaca cases and my S23 ultra has the latercase by unbox therapy. Still on the fence but great recommendations on here sir. New subscriber here for sure!

[@deefromewa9868]

That pitaka is not worth $89. Ridiculous.

[@SimonSandtjarn]

Well, if you are a true minimalist and no other brands does a thin and nice looking case, and also a case with the same fitment. Then what to, if you could buy the fold I think you can save for some days more and buy this awesome looking case. Every other case seems to be so bulky...

[@nugzmedallion8929]

I own a Galaxy Z Fold2 still and am going to be upgrading my phone in a few months when I can afford it. I refuse to get anything but a foldable anymore, I'm 100% hooked on having a folding tablet in my pocket. I'm either gonna get the Z Fold5 OR, if there is an international release by January or so, I'm thinking about the HONOR Magic V2 as well. I will say this in response to one of your "favorite cases" pick, the Spigen one at the very end; they've made that exact same case for the Fold2, 3, 4, and now 5. When I first got the Fold2, they were pretty much the ONLY case manufacturer that had a good case that protects the hinge. However, I've now been through 3 of them with this phone, and they aren't cheap (I mean, relative to the price of the phone, kinda, but in general its like $60-70 for the Spigen Armor cases for the Fold phones) so just to let people know, the case doesnt take drops very well, the plastic can crack, and the way its designed, if the hinge protecting...hinge breaks off, that entire half of the case becomes useless, and the hinge is the weakest link because it just uses cheap metal springs. Just a word of warning.

[@357unit]

I was in the same boat as you man. I traded in my Fold 2 for the Fold 5 and when I got it I was just excited for it as I was with the fold 2! I hope you got your Fold 5 by now or are close to getting it. I had the Spigen Tough armor and indeed it did not handle drops that good. It went to a point where the hinge protector came right off rendering the case useless.

[@burnsalad]

1) Magsafe needs to be a standard feature on android or all cases going forward. 2) They need to make an s-pen attachment for the samsung standing case. I can't find the fold4 pen with attachment for sale online.

[@tamago11111]

I was racking my head about cases for such an expensive phone. THANK YOU for doing this video, it is really really helpful!! Keep up the good work!

[@joon0]

FYI, Torras told me they couldn't make their case fit the newer S Pen because Samsung kept the specs for it under wraps until the very last minute. They are developing an "accessory" (I'm assuming it's something that will fit into the larger S Pen slot) which will make the case compatible with the new S Pen, but it won't be released until the 21st. If you bought this case and email them, they'll ship you the accessory for free when the date comes.

[@quihotedon2061]

the same is valid for both supcase and i-blason. So that is the reason why they make zf 5 cases with zf4 pen slot! I was sure they couldnt be that stupid. I use supcase the last 8 yrs. Thx for explanation!

[@joon0]

@@quihotedon2061 I'm sure that's what happened. Some of the larger case partners like Spigen probably got some earlier access, plus (in the case of Spigen) they're also a Korean company which probably helps.

[@josephborja9524]

😊 2:57

[@jimmylipsjaymo]

Supcase Unicorn beetle is the best case out there. I had one on my ZF3, and my girl has one on her ZF4. Now, i have one on my ZF5. Full protection, full functionality, kickstand, Spen holder, good grip, not slippery, and it looks great.

[@skorpyo331]

Definitely the one Im lookin to get. U just made up my mind too. Now, question is, are there any available rnow. Lol

[@duketogo2616]

Been doing a lot of reading about cases for this phone and I've seen this Unicorn one mentioned on several occasions. Can you use your volume buttons and fingerprint reader and access the edge menu options when the phone is open with this case installed?

[@jimmylipsjaymo]

@@duketogo2616 Yes to all of those things

[@chrisfletcher1990]

​@duketogo2616 So far I have had mine on my phone for two weeks now. Definitely does not hinder any functionality on the phone for me, the front screen took a little getting use to with the raised edge on the cover but I adjusted the screen sensitivity to high and it's flawless.😊

[@douglassebold213]

When it comes to any of those S pens you mentioned. Only the larger S pen Pro has the ability for Air Actions. Which is required to use as a selfie remote. The slim pens can only be used for air commands on the Z Fold screen.

[@deborahjames-edmonds8040]

My favorites were the Supcase UB Pro and the I Blason Armor Box because they had coverage and they held the S Pen. Also, they came with screen protectors! I too, am disappointed at the choices of cases. I do understand that the Z Fold 5 is still new. So I will be patiently waiting! I like bling and PURPLE!

[@M5_Sonu]

Appreciate the effort! I’m surprised none of the case makers have a cut out for the sim slot! Also, the hump that’s created with the hinge protection is pretty annoying / unsightly ! Using the Ringke case while looking for something more durable. The Ringke case is trash. It’s slippery, doesn’t inspire any confidence when opening the inner display, and the front cover ( even with the stickers ) pops off with little effort. Surprised this was given a thumbs up.

[@virtualhackinmachine]

Really enjoyed your video on the best cases! However, I noticed that whenever you mentioned a case with an "S Pen holder", you didn't specify if it was for the new S Pen or the previous Galaxy's pen. It would be helpful to know that distinction. Keep up the great work!

[@ProfessorTechNerd]

Most manufacturers seem to allow buyers to change to the proper pen portion if their pen doesn't fit.

[@skorpyo331]

Why im soooo glad my fold 5 is not gonna come w a pen.

[@joshuarobinson2233]

Thank you so much for putting in the time to make this video! Made my decision so easy when case shopping!

[@TimRules2]

I have both the VRS stand and the Samsung strap/sand cases. They're both great, only issue I have is the VRS hinge protector keeps it from fitting in any of my phone mounts when opened. No issues with the Samsung case other than I wish there were more color options.

[@appstate1996]

You mentioned something that I had not considered. My Z Fold 5 arrives tomorrow. This is my first foldable. Black Friday deal $799.00. I'm trying to figure which case to get which is a daunting task. I want a case that carries the s pen. I want a hinge, screen, camera lens protector. However, I hadn't thought about the car phone mount. If I get one with the hinge protector, I might not find a car mount that will fit the phone. What to do???

[@TheosDeorum]

I literally just came to this channel to see if this video was out yet! Love these videos!

[@HighTechCheck]

Thank you for your support Devon! Comments like yours make it all worth it. I have a screen protector video coming soon as well.

[@NoToRiOuS_ili]

Thoughts on casetify cases?

[@davidw_52]

FYI I had a fold 4 with the pen case that held the S Pen fold version. It works with the new similar Samsung case that has the silicone strap and kick stand option. THe fold 4 pen holder and pen work with the new fold 5 case as well which just adds usiblitly and avoids having the use the slim pen offered this year.

[@rel892]

Van you give a link, please?

[@DennisZeigler-lm2iu]

The Pitaka case is my favorite. Looks sleek, slim, and just beautiful. 🥰

[@traveler0415]

Great Video! Your voice is very relaxing, felt very ASMR lol

[@geraldgambler7276]

Any of them come with the s pen? Or just the Samsung case?

[@TEVIDEOS]

When will the Pitaka magez case be available?

[@archerash6695]

Didnt test volume bottons on each case. I've heard some of the bulky cases don't line up with the buttons

[@luna775]

Thanks I just got mine and this was so useful to know what to look for

[@Derpymech]

Read in another video the pitaka mag ez case was discontinued due to charging issues.... any idea?

[@nyanyna]

Amazing, about to watch this near 2 hour video. I have already preordered the Spigen Tough Armor Pro in green, but keen to see the others!

[@stevenspigler3973]

Great video very thorough. My biggest want is kickstand. But I also do want a pen still undecided here... Best suggestion?

[@arnietressler8506]

Absolutely great video. Bravo and thank you

[@pvyas1000]

Which would be better? Ringke Slim case or Spigen Ultra hybrid?

[@darius9513]

Where can i get that wall paper

[@Necrysi]

Which of these cases was the thinnest overall? I currently have the Samsung gadget case, but you don't really make any relative comparisons in the video so it's hard to tell if any of these cases are noticeably thinner than the gadget case.

[@mslafay7]

I have the ringke clear case. So thin and great protection. I love it. None bulky!

[@bazanime]

Does the magnet in magsafe affect s-pen inking, phone closing opening sensor? I had a magnetic case on my old fold 4 that broke the phone that I had to have Samsung repair.

[@aremdvnasophia]

Thanks for taking the time to review all those cases.

[@Jasondranoff]

When is the Mag Pitaka coming? I only see the Air case on the website?

[@TIMB1044]

[@sal4802]

I have the slim armor pro case for my z fold 5. I've had to remove my glass screen protector as it seems it lifts it up. Is there a glass screen protector that works that you are aware of with this case? Thank you and love your videos!

[@ryusan717]

You need need to Install the screen protector with the front of the case on and line it up towards the left.

Check out the araree clear case for the zfold5. About $30, very nice case imo.

[@TheGman770]

Thanks!

[@HighTechCheck]

[@RizSavellano]

I'm a big Pitaka case fan! CF and sleek! I was about to order it and just saw 'coming soon!'. Anyway, I need sPen and magsafe on my case, huge sPen user. Sadly only a few cases offer both.

[@arturodeguzman]

Which one eliminates phone wobble? The wobble essentially renders the SPen writing uselesss for tabletop writing.

[@aajackybb2]

do you also bought another UAG cases? more interest in the UAG civillian case

[@RexFella]

Check out the spigen tough armor pro it has an spen slot

[@Alex-zi1nb]

love the built in kickstands. need one that has a kickstand and magsafe built in. also love spine coverage. and heres an idea - why cant someone introduce hydrophobic mesh into a lining that covers speakers and other open areas? to even increase resistance.. gonna try and make some mesh coated with rainex and shoe water remover on mine

[@HunterOfThePast]

The back of the pitaka case, is it magnatic too? Greetings from Germany

[@se7enBC1]

I swear I just watched this same video for the Fold 4 lol..what do you do with all these cases really?

[@CrunchyTire]

ebay (or just returns them to amazon like so many reviewers abusing the "system" for profit)

may have to redo best case once slim spen cases are out in a week's time

[@Ribdaddy32]

[@Justin-tq3em]

Please review dbrand grip case for fold 5

[@AlviinLoh]

How about araree 360 case with pen holder?.

[@JimboSRP]

Thanks for the very comprehensive coverage of covers! I had a Spigen Spen cover for my Fold 4 that was very much like the TORRAS. I think it was called the Slim Armor Pro Pen Edition. Do you know if Spigen has or will do a similar for the Fold 5? Currently I have the Spigen Slim Armor Pro on my Fold 5 and it is great, but I am missing the integrated Spen holder.

[@adanrivera744]

Finally someone lol doing review on bunch of cases. I got ? Anyone have issues with the cases that already have built in screen protection??

I want a case thar will lay open flat. So when open you can type without it wobbling. Do any of the better cases lay flat?

[@gandy4213]

That's a really cool charging cable what brand is it ? (The yellow cable) 9:22

[@chadd.7816]

@HighTechCheck what case you rocking now? Do you have a new favorite? Did your phone ever get warmer while using the Spigen slim armour pro? For whatever reason my Z Fold 5 gets warmer in the Spigen Slim armour pro than other cases like the Ringke. Maybe its because the hinge covers doesn't allow for proper air flow to help cool or more likely the inner foam padding possibly??? Also don't like that it doesn't wirelessly charge with my Oh Snap4 grip magnet. Guess i'm going to order a Latercase and see if that case ends my case search lol.

[@AgainstWokeness]

Shame how hard it is to find a case for this phone that works perfectly.

[@chadd.7816]

What are you rocking right now? I want to love the Spigen Slim armour pro for the protection it provides, but i think the inner foam is making it harder to cool off and i find my phone getting warmer than with most other cases. I like the hinge protection, but at the same time don't like that when taking pictures (fully opened up) it blocks part of the outer screen that i use for selfies or that others can use when taking pictures of them. I also like my Ringke matte black case, but offers a little less protection, but doesn't have the 2 cons i just mentioned. I am going to order a Latercase and see if that one makes me stop searching for the perfect case lol.

Does quad lock hold up good with this case and what about bumps when riding can I operate on bike with fold open. Thanks for answering

[@postalshark]

@shahramsherazi the universal adapter holds excellent and wireless charging works too. The Spigen case is a strong hold on the phone also. I haven't rode with it open yet but it should be fine. I have my mount close to the left handgrip and I need to move it over a bit to the right to make room to open the phone.

@@postalshark Much appreciated mate I ordered my Spigen Slim Armor Pro from US unfortunately its not avaiable in Germany :)

[@EATdeadcat]

Hey bro, have u tested the thinborne one? I ve heard that no matter the price or the slim-cut, it can pretty challenge pitaka, and there's a netizen showing a hand-written letter from the boss during the unboxing. Seems an exciting product. Would love to see if u would do an additional review on it.

My biggest issue is the the little peace towards the hinge. Almost all of them have not stuck as soon as I put it in my pocket and pull it out. It moves.

[@krisadams7100]

Thank you for your review I'm going for the first one. I just can't encase this beautiful phone in heavy armor. For me it's a light case and my protection his insurance. Only time I've ever needed it just to replace the inner screen protector. I like the pitaka case I wish they'd make it $20 cheaper and ship it in a cardboard box I don't need a fancy magnetic box that I'm going to throw right away. I think the fold 5 should come with a nice presentation and unboxing experience with the charger with an outer screen protector and case.
