Best Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 cases in 2025
TheSamsung Galaxy Z Fold 4marked a major milestone for Samsung, making it one of the largest and most popular foldable phone makers. While the company has seen fierce competition, there are signs that Samsung is working hard to retain its leadership position and stay ahead of the curve with itsfoldable smartphones.
It’s worth remembering that the Galaxy Z Fold 4 was far from perfect, but it offered significant quality-of-life improvements over its predecessor. If you’re thinking of picking one up or you’re still using one, you might want to invest in a quality case to continue protecting your device from everyday wear that could otherwise set you back hundreds of dollars in repairs.
The official Samsung Standing Cover case is about more than just offering protection. While the plastic case will absorb some of the shock from falls, it’s the included S Pen and optional built-in kickstand that enhance the user experience. Make the most of the Z Fold 4 with an attractive case that turns the device into a workstation. Samsung’s quality shines through to give the Z Fold 4 a reliable case that doesn’t hinder usability at all.
Dbrand’s premium quality shines through with the Galaxy Z Fold 4 Grip Case, complete with sturdy hinge protection. The foldable case may look plain, but that simplicity hides a premium, thin, military-grade design built to withstand drops. Satisfyingly clicky buttons and a snug fit add to the high quality of the grippy case. In addition, a variety of skins allow you to customize your case, including patterned designs or a selection of solid colors.
While i-Blason’s Cosmo Pro series is better known for its distinct marble styling, the standard Cosmo/Halo is a transparent take that’s the best clear Galaxy Z Fold 4 case available. A rotating flap covers the Fold 4 when closed, serves as a grip when it’s open, and stows away your S Pen Fold Edition so you’ll never forget it. Despite its unassuming design, it also defends against drops of up to 10 feet.
Speck’s clear Galaxy Z Fold 4 case is a great value option, offering superior protection at an affordable price. The Perfect-Clear coating resists discoloration and yellowing, so your case stays transparent over time, while the quick access groove makes it a breeze to open and close your phone. The case offers up to 13-foot drop protection in the phone’s unfolded position, but it doesn’t protect your phone’s hinge while it’s folded.
Merging protection, precise fit, and premium feel, Samsung’s own leather cover keeps its foldable safe from moderate nicks, dings, and drops, and is as slim and light as any competitors' cases. It’s made with real leather, rather than plastic-based, and comes in black or gray. It also costs next to nothing, which is remarkable, considering its one of the few cases to regularly see praise for its perfect size and consistent hinge action.
There’s not much to the Ringke Slim Case, which consists of a thin layer of clear plastic that resists yellowing and clouding, and that’s about it. As such, it weighs next to nothing, and won’t make your already large phone too much larger. The drawback is that it’s not particularly durable. Given the cost and slight build, though, it’s worth considering if you want marginal drop protection and great protection from scratches.
The OtterBox Thin Flex is available in three colors and was tested against the military-grade standard. It’s a slim, lightweight, and durable case made of premium materials, ensuring the phone is protected from everyday wear and falls. It has raised bezels that shield the screen and the cameras, and a compact design that doesn’t make the phone extra bulky.
Ghostek’s Covert case will protect the Galaxy Z Fold 4 from drops of up to 8 feet in height thanks to its proprietary shock absorption technology. It also has hinge protection, and the sides are textured to provide a firm grip. The case’s clear, scratchproof back means the Galaxy Z Fold 4’s beauty isn’t completely hidden, while the raised edges around the display and rear cameras provide additional protection.
Style is what this Z Fold 4 case is all about. The TPU leather offers a high-end aesthetic, complete with hidden storage for debit cards, cash, and more. The wallet cover folds over and latches into place with a secure magnet. There’s also an opening for the phone’s camera, a convenient S-Pen slot, and wireless charging capabilities. Moreover, this foldable cover props your Z Fold 4 up, so you may enjoy your favorite programs and comfortably browse the internet.
The Samsung Silicone Grip Cover case protects the frame and makes it easy to hold the Galaxy Fold 4 with the included finger strap. Although the case is available in only two colors, the finger straps are detachable and owners can purchase additional ones to spice up the appearance. The silicone case, which has a smooth matte finish, is partly made from recycled plastic
Poetic’s Guardian offers military-grade protection against drops and scratches while showing off the elegant finish of your Galaxy Z Fold 4. A hard frame provides a shock-absorbent bumper with raised lips to protect your screens and cameras, while a transparent anti-scratch back and built-in screen protector let your phone’s color shine through on both sides. Poetic doesn’t offer an extra frame, so you’ll need to punch it out yourself if you’d prefer to add your own tempered glass.
The Torras Shockproof case, with its airbags and raised edges, can withstand drops from up to 8 feet, and unlike rival cases that use adhesive, Torras uses a snap design to secure the phone. This also makes it easier to remove and reuse if you want. There is also a slot for an S Pen and coatings to prevent scratches and fingerprint smudges.
Appropriately named, the Thin Fit P from Spigen swaddles your Z Fold 4 in a protective layer of polycarbonate and TPU without adding unnecessary bulk. Remarkably, even though it weighs in at a mere 263 grams, it also includes an unobtrusive bay to tuck your S Pen into when not in use.
While the Civilian is by no means a svelte case (unsurprisingly from a brand with armor in its name), it does an excellent job of keeping your Z Fold 4 safe from harm, with a slim hinge cover and a chassis built around a hex cushioning, shock-absorbing soft core. It’s about as durable as they come, but still doesn’t weigh much.
Spigen’s wide case selection always offers something for everyone, and the Slim Armor Pro is perfect for people who want plenty of protection, a premium feel, and not much additional bulk. A novel semi-automatic sliding mechanism keeps the hinge safer than most other cases can, and neither the build nor materials interfere with wireless charging. We’re also big fans of the Pearled Ivory color.
Picking the best case for your Galaxy Z Fold 4
Samsung’s first-party case, the Standing Cover with S Pen, is hands-down one of the best cases you’re able to buy now. It comes with the S Pen, and an optional kickstand that provides a seamless hands-free experience. The case offers excellent protection, shielding your device from shocks and falls. It also has elevated bezels, and it works with all wireless chargers. What’s more, the case can easily allow you to use and store the pen, without worrying about it being too bulky.
If you have a slightly higher budget, and want more personalization and customization, you might want to take a peek at Dbrand’s Grip case. Unlike the Standing Cover, the Grip provides protection for the hinge, and the entire case has been tested against the military-grade standard to be more tough and durable. The case maker also allows you to easily install any of its unique skins on the back, helping you make your experience truly unique and yours.
Suppose you don’t want to spend that much money; you’ll be glad to find that the Speck Presidio offers most features of the last two at a more reasonable price tag. The case has a clear coating that lets you show off your phone to its fullest, and it has an additional layer that prevents discoloration – staying clear and fully transparent. The case is also 13-foot drop-protected, with raised bezels, and precise cutouts.
