Z Fold 7 Cases

[mschabow]

I've been very happy with the Thinborne case with the for not moving around and so thin I feel like the phone is naked. Power button feel is better now with it on and my muscle memory.

Which Thinborne case are you using again? I might order one.

PS. Damn these cases are all so expensive!

They had 30% coupon code which brought it down to $62 or something like that when I bought it.

Pitaka came in today. They even threw in a 30w charger with fiber sides. I like the Pitaka for a simple rear cover. The fit perfect and the lines are clean.

Side by side of ZF7 with Pitaka and my S23U with LaterCase to show the difference in size of the weave.

Shoooot. I would actually pull the trigger if I could get it for $62.

Me too..... I just wish they had a different color

The only part with Pikata is the power button and the camera hump. The Thinborne doesn't interfere with power banks (they work, just have to be crooked) an they way it is set up allows for better use of the power button.

Yes right now only the 15% codes working

Yeah, the camera ring probably and basically the placement of the mag ring is disappointing. I lay the blame on Samsung more than Pitaka that they couldn't place the ring just a tad lower allow more options like attaching a wallet.

The power button for me is not any worse than without the case. For me even without the case i didn't feel super comfortable with it because while adjusting to get my finger in position to press I feel I have to take care to adjust my whole grip of the phone because the hinge still makes for a slippery phone.

Face unlock is the way to go with the ZF7 and faster without the need for me to adjust phone in hand to get my finger in right position.

If staying ultra thin wasn't the objective, I would probably go with a Spigen case and call it a day and get hinge/dust protection. Speaking of hinge, does anyone else get a little wide-eyed when they see even the tiniest spec of a white dot of dust on the gap of the hinge?

What I wouldn't mind is if someone sold grip tape, similar to what they use on Glock grips, laser cut to size to cover the side of the front frame to add a little more grip and to unfold the phone.

Another note... the Spigen tempered glass. I don't know what that nano coating they put on the glass but that is the slipperiest (is that a word) glass I've ever felt. Face down on a uneven surface if cloth or hard smooth surface, my phone starts sliding away lol.

But overall I like the case and will rock with with the Spigen glass and see how it is as a daily.

I go back and forth between the torras 360 for it's kickstand and the spigen slim armor pro magfit. I think I'm going to end up going with the torras360. It's smooth has a nice kickstand and textured hinge protection. Magsafe compatible too. Actually I should have gotten the blue one.

Today I received the Benks case. I purchased it off of eBay for $48 which included shipping. I'm really impressed with this case and the hinge and front cover. Keeps the fold feeling slim with no bulk and the hinge protection is curved so it feels like a little book in hand.

Nice! Because it's hella expensive on their website.

Got a link for the eBay listing?!

Got my Thinborne case today. I noticed mine doesn't have a small cutout around the camera hump for the supposed speaker or microphone and I've seen people point this out in reviews where even Benks didn't have it.

The spot I'm referring to is between the camera hump and the cutout for the flash. Does anyone else also not have this cutout on theirs?

 

[mlblack16]

Thinborne case

Went back through this long thread and bam, one of your pics shows exactly what I'm talking about with the cutout.

The one I received had also changed in design in that the camera hump is not aramid fiber rather just black plastic.

I'm glad I saved 30% because I'm not feeling great about the changes. It seems they are trying to save costs by using regular plastic for the camera protection.

So did you go with full Maple as pictured? Unique.

I was just looking at their site and The offer a Leather and wood combo which I really like.

For me, my favorite combo is Navy Grog leather back with Black Walnut wood trim. Actually all the leather colors look great with Black Walnut.

Makes me wonder if they will sell only the front trim... Pitaka back cover with the Black Walnut front trim... Killer eh?

Welp, I end up with Raptic Case and wow. This feels very nice.

The downside is that it only comes with the back side. And I'm cool with it. It is very minimalist. And that's exactly what I want.

I thought not having a front side would be a deal breaker for me however I've been using only the back for a few weeks. The front case, even with tape always seems to move a bit and drives me nuts.
