Foldable phones are more fragile than their traditional counterparts. So it isn’t surprising you would want a case to protect a phone like the Galaxy Z Fold 3, especially given its steep pricing. However, the foldable form factor presents several challenges to designing a case, so various cases on the market cover the Galaxy Z Fold 3 either partly or wholly. In this guide, we’ve selected the best Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 full cases.
A full case of the Z Fold 3 covers the back panel and the edges of the cover screen. Some full cases also include protection for the hinge. Unfortunately, there are no cases that include protection for the main display of the phone as they would obviously interfere with the phone’s operations. To protect the flexible display, you’d have to rely on the pre-applied screen protector, which is 80% more durable than the Z Fold 2, according to Samsung, and also shouldn’t be removed.
Notably, all Galaxy Z Fold 3 (or any other Fold-series phone) full cases partly use adhesive to remain in place as they don’t have the space to grip around the phone on all sides, just like the cases for traditional smartphones. So adhesive use by the case makers is not a sign of poor quality. Instead, it’s a problem with the foldable form factor. Even the official Samsung Z Fold 3 cases use adhesive on the back panel to stay in place.
