Zenfone 3 flip and the cases

[tokyoprogressive]

I am new to the Zenfone, but one thing I have noticed is there have been what look to be identical cases (flip cases) for past models.

I am considering the Zenfone 3, but am wondering if official flip cases are made by other companies who market under their own name, such as seen in this Italian video comparing an ASUS snd a Nillkin case.

Anyone know?

I have seen other models that also look the same, such as TopAce, etc. Nillkin gets the most hits. Are they the makers of the official case?

Related question. Will a flip case take a tempered glass screen protector? I tend to think no since there is also a protective screen built into the case. As such, maybe better to get a good number or other case with a tempered glass protector? bUt I hear the zenfone 3 is partly curved and may be a challenge for such glass protectors.What do others have to say?

Hi! I'm sorry, I can't really answer most of your questions! However, I have heard that curved screen/glass edges do make screen protector purchases/usage a bit complicated. I believe I had read some Edge users on here lamenting about it being difficult to find good screen protectors for that reason.

However, I would suggest buying screen protectors either from Asus themselves or any that are in some way endorsed by Asus. Or get someone to install the protector for you so it's on them if anything is not installed properly!

I am curious: did you end up purchasing the Zenfone 3? How are you liking it? Hope you found a case and screen protector that are to your liking!
