Best Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 Cases in 2024

Budget

Before you do anything else, consider how much you’re willing to spend on a Galaxy Z Flip4 phone case. Value-for-money cases are getting better all the time, so you can find a decent wireless charger for under $15. But if you’re looking for a more expensive model, you’ll likely have to pay well over $50, and even more for Qi-compatible cases.

Qi wireless charging support — or not?

Most Android phones since the Samsung Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge models introduced in 2015 offer wireless inductive charging. Android’s standard for these phones is called Qi, and fully Qi-compatible power banks offer faster charging speeds for Android devices, with speeds capped at around 7.5 watts for iPhones. In all cases, you’ll want to make sure your phone case is thin enough to allow for inductive charging through the back of the phone.

You can save about $8 to $10 by purchasing a case that doesn’t have an integrated metal ring. I generally encourage people to spend the extra money on a Qi-enabled case because of the number of magnetic accessories on the market, some of which are quite useful.

Thin or thicker?

Some people like minimal cases that add little to no bulk to their Galaxy Z Flips, but the majority of people are looking for a case that offers solid protection — or even maximum protection. I’d encourage people to find a case that isn’t too thick, and maybe even quite thin, and that offers at least 6 feet of drop protection (and good corner protection).

Do you want a transparent cover?

Clear cases are popular because they show off your phone (and its color). Clear cases, especially the cheaper ones, can become less transparent over time and slowly turn yellow. Many case manufacturers are now adding UV protection to their clear cases to prevent yellowing.
