Best Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 cases: What to look for

When you’re looking for the best Galaxy Z Flip 7 case to fit your lifestyle and budget, be sure to pick an option that fits your phone. Last year's Galaxy Z Flip 6 has different dimensions than the Galaxy Z Flip 7, so the best Galaxy Z Flip 6 cases won't work with newer phones.

Similarly, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE — Samsung's lower-cost flip phone — isn't the same size as the standard Z Flip 7. So you'll want to be very careful to make sure you're shopping for a Galaxy Z Flip 7-compatible case.

Here are a few other factors to keep in mind on your quest for the best Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7.

Thickness: The primary purpose of any quality case is to protect the gadget inside it, and that goes doubly so for a thinner model. However, it’s worth noting that a case will make your phone thicker, and the durability the case offers is usually directly proportional to the thickness of the case.

Build materials and drop protection: Whether the case is made out of silicone, rubber, polycarbonate, thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), graphene, aramid fiber, or a combination of these shock-absorbing materials, look for a good drop rating to keep your phone protected from the occasional spill.

Some smartphone cases are only meant to withstand drops of a few feet high, while more hardcore competitors have a MIL-STD-810G-tested rating of 10 feet or more. Multiple materials (and layers) generally offer the best drop protection, but the toughest cases we’ve found are reinforced with graphene or aramid fiber.

Color/design options: Phone cases are an inherently mundane mobile tech accessory, but a variety of fashion-forward brands include textured designs, artsy skins, customizable shells, and built-in keychain attachments to keep things interesting. Your phone is part of your identity these days, so why not choose a case that identifies with your own unique personality?

Environmental impact: As smartphone manufacturers continue emphasizing the sustainability angle of their devices, case makers are falling in line. Look for Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 cases driven by various green initiatives that use recycled plastics and other bio-friendly materials.

There's something noteworthy about the latest Galaxy phones is as they support Qi2 wireless charging, but lack the on-device magnets that make the most of this feature. Buy a MagSafe-compatible case and your wireless charging will be instantly improved.

How we pick the best Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 cases

We base our initial rankings on word-of-mouth and customer reviews, paired with our own comprehensive research into new phone cases that come out every time a phone manufacturer releases a new model.

In some instances, we may call in cases for additional hands-on testing, and we revisit our picks to see if any new cases have come along. We consider overall protection, quality of build materials, available colors and designs and any extra features that make each model stand out.

We weigh all that info against how much each phone case costs. Because phone cases are such a personal choice, we also strive to include a variety of styles and brands to fit different tastes and budgets.
