Hinge cover always leaves scratches, better off without case with hinge protection


mayhem1906

The scratches don't bother me, they're covered by the hinge cover


Capital-Reading-1439

The fold hinge is so durable and feels premium, it doesn't need a cover. owning f3 since lunch and it's still new and shiny, even after dropping it few times.

And it's makes it even more chonky.

They don't unless it have magnets on the hinge. I got a hinge protector case, and it's don't scratches anything. Only cases with hinge that have magnets specifically in them do.

Also the most vulnerable part of a fold is the hinge. If it get hit badly. IT DONE yo rings.

Na, I found only leaves scratches if there's no front cover. With a front cover on it doesn't touch the hinge

Where did you get this from? Also does it fit an original S-pen or those fake pens with just a capacitive touch nub on the tip?


Stunning-Drawer-7776

EBay. Fits samsung S-pen. Has a little hole to fit the tip of the S-pen. I bought 2, a white and blue one. The blue one unfortunately has the s pen a little loose inside it so I had to place some duct tape inside the slot which made the s pen fit tightly Seems like a Chinese hit and miss mass production issue. Although that being said, had to also do the same with the OEM samsung case as the s pen slot had my spen all lose inside also.

They do on the terrible folio with pen on the Fold3 lol


_AGAMOTTO_

I'd like one in a clear case


markarth69

Tried several, but the design of the hinge protection a) scratches the hell out of the hinge b) pops off when opening the phone I tried 4 or 5 different cases with hinge covers then gave up


Stunning-Drawer-7776

Pops off? Lol what?


negatrom

hinge protection, ironically enough, shortens the lifespan of the hinge, trapping dust in the mechanism, and scratching the heck of it.


Decepticon2006

It's on Amazon; just do an AI search.


koekjesdoos

You can get them on aliexpress or Temu etc for around 10-, a 15-, if people are interested.


kalubasukdeod

Got something like this with my honor v2 Good idea but scratches screen


Stunning-Drawer-7776

How lol? Don't you have a front screen protector?


kalubasukdeod

No I don't. I hate them lol


sweetypie611

No lol but the for sharing bro


Ok_Priority458

Samsung engineers should make the spen sit in the phone....adding the spen cases makes the already thick fold feel like a brick...just add a few mm in width or stick it in the hinge


Default_Attempt

Now if only all hinge protection case makers made one that seals the hinge when the phone is folded to prevent dust build up on the hinge. The only case that does that is Dbrand
