Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 | Starter Kit

[@Techtonicuk]

Check out my more indepth review of the S Pen and Flip case here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sKm3pKZ3g7qfjas Check out this alternative S Pen case for the Galaxy Z Fold 3: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oaHEqpSdmc-SidE

[@dingbatt]

Thanks for doing a review of this cover. Lots of other covers reviewed on KZbin but not this one. Great to see the S-Pen holder is removable. Any comment on how durable the attachment will be after it has been taken on and off multiple times? Also what is the surface on the inside of the front cover like? Is it likely to scratch the front screen. And does it hold magnetically,or is it free to float? So many questions, but this is one of only two reviews that mention this cover…

[@Techtonicuk]

Thanks for watching, it's not really a review, just a first impression as now while using it, I can find lots of faults with the case. Can't say much for durability as I've only had the case for a few days, but it seems durable enough and should last. The surface of the inside front cover won't damage the screen, no need to worry about that. The cover is just held freely, it's not magnetic.

[@MrReedmonkey]

Thanks for the vid, very helpful. They really screwed the pooch with the implementation of the spen... Why not make it normal s pen size so that it can be easily incorporated into a less bulky case without a stupid flap on the front display? I suppose anything on the back will get in the way of wireless charging.

[@Techtonicuk]

Yeah not great, kind of challenging using the phone with this case, hopefully they find a way to integrate the SPen for the next Fold.

[@petecoventry6858]

Nice - Got mine today - Was free also and I didn't even pre order :) I had a chinese case from Amazon which was the same as this but had a magnetic catch but no spen home.. I guess this "half an inch" is a design flaw

[@alexwu3258]

In Singapore. Case and S pen already retail at $118 sgd.

[@Evolcanova]

Thanks bro. is the case cover magnetized when you shut it? It holds well or it keeps opening.

[@Techtonicuk]

Its not magnetic so it does flap around.

[@Evolcanova]

@@Techtonicuk very thankful

[@jamesbalmforth5276]

Where do you buy the Samsung Z fold starter kit from

[@jonkeener50]

Ordered mine! Z!!!

[@Techtonicuk]

You'll love the Fold, not this case though.

[@mikesgamingchannel17]

Does the case not fold to allow you to use it as a kickstand at all? That would've been more useful

[@Techtonicuk]

You sort of can, I don't think it was designed to do it but you can sort of use it as a kickstand. It's a bit hit and miss, it's not very stable hence the reason why I don't think it was made with that in mind.

[@MisterGerdy]

Helpful video ! ZF3 arriving tomorrow.

[@Techtonicuk]

You're going to love it.

[@MisterGerdy]

@@Techtonicuk oh wow. Its different coming from Pixels. The weight was a surprise. But I'm getting there.

[@Techtonicuk]

It certainly will be different, but the experience is so much better, you get the best of both worlds, phone and tablet in one.

[@AzarAfsar]

It's a very good case,

[@weneedtodosomething]

Nicely done. Has helped me

[@Techtonicuk]

Thanks for watching.

[@aznmode1]

Ordered this too but haven't received my order. Thanks for sharing. I think I'm gonna end up returning it.

[@Techtonicuk]

Not sure if I can get used to using this case but I'll continue using it to see.

[@MrJimmy0114]

Did you notice the 3 pins and like grabber tool ? Im wondering if the 3 pins are to secure case 🤷‍♂️

[@MrJimmy0114]

Just realised the pins are actually new tip for s pen 🤦😄

[@Techtonicuk]

Haha yes, they're the replacement nibs for the S Pen.

[@zahidrehman528]

I just been told you can remove the spen part,

[@Techtonicuk]

Yep as demonstrated on the video.

[@LoverOfTech]

Nice unboxing bro. Yea not sure about this case either

[@Techtonicuk]

Thanks for watching bro, yeah same, not sure, but will continue using to see how it goes.

[@Skylarkcpt]

Hold up , i cant get my starter kit till after my phone arrives and Samsung want proof of purchase and the ime number .. how did you pull this off

[@Techtonicuk]

Not sure why you have to do that, here in the UK we all got our starter kit on the same day as our Fold.

[@Skylarkcpt]

@@Techtonicuk I am in the UK ! Tell me I have to do it all seperatly :(

[@cjolyvet]

Please what is the weight of the case and Spen combined? I've not seen that listed anywhere. Thank you sir. Craig

[@Techtonicuk]

I just weighed it, it's 66 grams.

[@cjolyvet]

@@Techtonicuk Thank you for your help. Keep safe.

[@shaf1485h]

Spigen need to release a s pen case

[@Techtonicuk]

ASAP lol

[@KillerNextDoor93]

I'm wondering if the case could sort of act as a stand when unfolded.

[@Techtonicuk]

I tried that but it doesn't.

[@lordforex]

@@Techtonicuk Ugh... that really stinks. I'm glad you posted this video. I just don't like that flip case at all. I guess I'll just need to wait to see how it feels in my hands and pockets

[@Techtonicuk]

Feels terrible from a usage perspective, makes using the phone uncomfortable.

[@ameliabuns4058]

Oh god that case does look horrible tho tbh that thing that hangs out when u folded. It's a good way to drop it. It's easy to accidentally tap it and make the phone drop specially since it's slippery and sliding and not firmly in place

[@Techtonicuk]

Looks horrible, feels horrible, anf difficult using the phone with it too but it'll protect protect your phone for sure.

[@ameliabuns4058]

@@Techtonicuk yeah. It I could afford one I'd 3d print my own case for it honestly

[@Imwphotography]

Can you cut the front flap off?

[@ameliabuns4058]

@@Imwphotography it'd probably look ugly and feel bad in unfolded mode. It'd also not protect the front anymore

[@cydra671]

I preordered mine but didn't see the case after i got my purchase confirmation email

[@Techtonicuk]

It should be included in the order confirmation email, contact Samsung customer service.

[@munkabiztonsag1]

the factory S pen case should be replaced by some other solution. I don't like that

[@Techtonicuk]

Hopefully it's integrated into the body for the next Fold.

[@munkabiztonsag1]

@@Techtonicuk i wouldn't be happy about that just because i bought the Fold 3😁🤪

[@munkabiztonsag1]

@@Techtonicuk Anyway, I already have an idea that I’m going to attach the pen to the back of the phone

[@Techtonicuk]

Yeah I'm thinking of doing something like that too.

[@Imwphotography]

Can you cut the flap part off?

[@michaelbmw1931]

MAKE THE SAME BUT WITH OPEN FRONT!!! I WANT SEE THE DISPLAY

[@ameliabuns4058]

You can 3d print a small 0.1$ pen holder. But you'd have to design it

[@Techtonicuk]

Will see what other case options become available from 3rd parties.

To be honest if u can afford a 1800 dollar phone i think 100 dollar or More would be fine too

[@Techtonicuk]

😅 but still man.

[@gareth3437]

Considering the premium price point on the handset, this kit is SEVERELY cheap ass feeling crap. No magnetic close means it's susceptible to instability when being held and it just feels so cheap in general.

[@Techtonicuk]

Completely agree with you.

[@simonh2011]

So dumb that they didn't build the s pen into the phone. This case is ugly af. Still getting it cos its free but having to use it to have easy access to the s pen is a pain, especially as I have a nice case already

[@Techtonicuk]

I completely agree with you.

[@simonh2011]

@@Techtonicuk Its just going to make so many people not use the S Pen as they don't want to carry it separately. Also the fact it is a glorified stylus when my 3 year old Note 9 S Pen has Bluetooth features makes it feel like a downgrade...

[@Techtonicuk]

It's a downgrade for Note users but an upgrade for Fold users. Yeah I could see myself being one of those people if I have to carry it separately, I'm jus putting up with this bad case just so I can keep the S Pen with me.

[@asterregis2168]

It's a horrible product... All their cases are horrible. The keyboard case for Samsung tab s6 it's a joke and its so expensive. I am a Samsung fan but sometimes they have horrible products
