Scrapes, scratches, drops, and cracked screens—that’s the future of your shiny new smartphone if you decide to be a rebel and forgo a phone case.
The smartest move you can make is to protect your Flip 4 with the latest and greatest in shock absorption, scratch resistance, durability, and functionality.
Here are the best Samsung Galaxy Flip 4 cases available.
Q: Do All Galaxy Z Flip 4 Cases Support Wireless Charging?
No, but there are plenty of cases that do support wireless charging.
Thanks to a honeycomb core and shock-absorbing panels, the UAG Civilian has impressive impact resistance, with added hinge protection. In the event you drop your Galaxy Z Flip 4 while it’s opened, the raised bezels and high bumpers prevent the device from landing glass first into the ground or cracking the camera.
The UAG Civilian’s design also lends itself to better handling; those angles and dips aren’t just for show. When pressing any of the tactile buttons, it responds with a click that’s satisfying to the fingers. More importantly, you’ll have quick access to the charging port as well as wireless charging.
The Spigen Air Skin has an ultra-thin profile, but not too thin that you lose out on protection against scrapes and scratches. Its standout design feature is the raised bezels around the edges and camera, preventing the most important aspects of your device from being directly impacted.
If fashion is a concern, the Spigen Air Skin has five finishes to choose from, one of which is a clear case to show off the Galaxy Z Flip 4’s natural coloring. Regardless of the color you choose, you’ll always have access to wireless charging and the charging port itself.
Despite a slim build, the Caseology Nano Pop has military-grade protection, thanks to the aforementioned TPU and polycarbonate. The materials absorb a great deal of the shock while also giving it a nice texture that reduces the chances you’ll drop your Galaxy Z Flip 4 in the first place.
The most praiseworthy feature of the Caseology Nano Pop is its raised bezels, not just around the Flip 4’s screen, but the camera as well. Finally, wireless charging is still available, as well as reaching the charging port with ease.
Turning over the case, you’ll immediately notice several welcomed features, the most obvious being a kickstand, which allows you to prop up the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 horizontally and vertically. It fits seamlessly into the VRS Design QuickStand Active Case without adding extra bulk. Flip the case over and you’ll find another useful feature: a hole to clip your favorite strap to.
Of course, the VRS Design QuickStand Active Case isn’t short on protection. Keeping the two sections of polycarbonate and TPU together is a hinge, which doubles as protection for the spine of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4.
The styles are a mix of function, material, and color; for example, you can forgo the silicone cover for a luxurious leather one that’s sleek and equally tactile in feeling to prevent accidental drops. More importantly, choose a style that has a ring that allows you to clip on a durable strap or lanyard.
What’s arguably the best feature of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 Silicone Cover is its build material, of which a portion is made with UL-certified post-consumer recycled content. In the end, you get a bold stylish case and you’re helping the planet at the same time.
Made of polycarbonate and TPU, the SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Pro Series takes a different approach to protection by doubling up on layers. What you get is a shockproof case that excels at shock absorption. In addition to being like a suit of armor, the SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Pro Series has a tactile design with slip-resistant properties.
The SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Pro Series also comes with a useful belt clip and kickstand, ensuring the device is easily accessible. As convenient as the belt clip is, it’s more so another level of protection; the SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Pro Series secures the phone rather well.
To protect from scratches, scrapes, and drops, the Spigen Tough Armor utilizes a combination of TPU, polycarbonate, and air cushion technology. Altogether, the Spigen Tough Armor gains an impressive level of anti-shock protection. More importantly, the designers didn’t forget to cover the exposed spine, which folds seamlessly when closed.
To seal the deal, the Spigen Tough Armor won’t prevent you from using your Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4. It has precise cutouts for the buttons as well as allows your device to charge wirelessly.
That means you’ll be able to keep the phone case on and your Galaxy Z Flip 4 will still charge when placed on a wireless charging station.
For those that don’t, the phone case has to be removed before wireless charging can be activated, or resort to using a charging cable.
Q: Why Not Use My Old Flip 3 Case?
While many Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 cases do fit on Flip 4 phones, at least generally, you’ll face a few issues that hinder the performance of your device.
For starters, the flashlight is slightly off; more importantly, the microphone will be covered, severely hindering the ability to capture your voice when you’re on the phone.
Those issues can be avoided entirely by simply getting a new case.
Q: Do I Need A Screen Protector?
It wouldn’t hurt to have extra protection, but it isn’t necessary.
Samsung applies its own screen protector on the main display, so unless yours was removed, there’s no reason to have another.
With that said, you should consider applying a screen protector to the screen in the back, by the cameras.
