I really like the S-Line/S-Curve cases.
Now so far i have seen 4 different versions of them.
1. S-Line with extra holes at bottom right for strap.

2. S-Line with no extra holes for strap possible on the side ( just ordered it and i think i prefer this one)

3. S-Line with different curve line and strap holes at side bottom right.

I remember ordering these types of cases from an Alibaba supplier. They cost about 1 dollar each but you have to order in dozens and pay shipping from Hong Kong.

mine was like $2.68 US shipped ....... took about a week but not bad
I have one of these, other than the fact it's incredibly loose, it's not bad for the price.
These are my favorite cases by far. There are tons of u.s. sellers on ebay now as well. The one without the holes in the bottom right for a lanyard with the slimmer "s" curve is the one I got. It fits perfectly, holes line up correctly, and the case is very snug. These are great. Only $3 or so shipped! Why pay more for a branded case?
I just bought a TPU case from Ebay which would have been great except for the fact that the cut out for the mini usb is not big enough, so I can't plug in the charger properly =/
Can you please recommend me a case from ebay <$10 (I'm not baller like you guys dropping $50 on a case lol) that covers the phone completely (no Rock Quicksand please). Generally I favor TPU cases because it seems like it has better shock protection then hard cases since its a softer material, but I'm open to all suggestions. A case similar to the Incipio Silicrylic or SGP Neo Hybrid would be great, but they are just more then I would pay for a case. Ebay links are better then Amazon because I need to ship it to Canada.
I'm considering the Mercury Pearl case but 1) all the colors are pretty girly 2) there's a lot of branding on the back
Thanks
You just take an Xacto knife to it and make the hole bigger. Shouldn't be too difficult.

Many Amazon.com sellers do not ship to Canada, so ebay is preferable since HK/China will ship to Canada. Besides, many Amazon sellers just buy products the same Ebay products from China to resell at a mark up. For example the S-Line case posted above.

Same question as above, any issues with it turning dirty or yellow? I had this problem with the Diztronic case turning bad in 2 weeks, and the owner of that site didn't care
anyway
i thank, more good Quality is sweetarmor metal case they has a titanium and the different
color sense (thesweetarmor. com)
There are so many good cases sadly not available in Canada and if they are they are overly priced with shipping. So I have to resort to ebay.
So I'm wondering if anyone has bought the below cases?
Case One - For the price its seems like a good deal, but it has an extra flap that wraps around the back and I think thats going to come in the way when using the tablet.
Case Two - Seems like a copy of the MoKo slim case but it looks good.
The first case looks pretty good and only $1.95 CDN shipped. Might pick one up to try it.

I got the new N7 two weeks ago from EEUU, and now, just few days left to spanish release, where I'm from, there's still no portfolio cases available in my country.
I'd like to buy Poetic Slim because I don't feel comfy with leather frame ones at all, I'm touching it every moment when I slide my fingers on the tablet corners, and the MoKo is too expensive now (about 25$ now, I saw days ago at 0.99$.. lol).
I am looking for a folio case at 20 bucks or less shipped which have wake/sleep, slim finish and no frame... and all ebayers wants to cheat me about 15-20$ for 14-21 days shipping plus 15$ for 10$ amazon case (yeah I know stock problems but what a way to speculate), while DBrand "robots" sent the decal I bought from Canada for 3$ and arrived in ONLY 4 DAYS by ordinary mail :silly:
What do you recommend me? Wait till spanish release or try the second 7$'s one which seems like MoKo?
Thanks.
I got a couple cases from eBay. I've already received the S Line TPU case, which I paid less than $4 shipped for. I also won an auction for a white folio case which was around $1.50 with free shipping from China! Not expecting much, but I'll update when I receive it. Today was day 16, an the seller told me 10-20 days. I'm expecting it Tuesday, since Monday is a holiday.

I got my eBaY TPU s-line case today..Purchased it last Aug.29 for $4.99 shipped. its pretty snug and fit very well with all the ports all cut clean.
I like the matte finish with glossy on the back and the textured side of this case. i choose a solid white color than the transparent one. but i hope that this case stay clean and white.
after installing my extremeguard screen protector here it is.
I will always suggest Poetic Slimline. It has 3 year warranty!
Hi,
Just got another m7,but this ones in black,looks like its heavily prone to scratching,a hell of a lot more then the silver one,i knew that anyway but its really easy to do
the m7 is a good looking phone so dont want uglify it with some ebay tpu case or something silly
just looking for a nice slim black case,matte ideally
or the other option a protective skin..all body and screen if its around?
Suggestions welcome lol this will be my first m7 ive had to case but in reality it needs it for the black ones
Diztronic has some pretty nice matte cases
Personally I use a UAG case for its drop protection and slim design
Don't buy a case, buy a pouch if you need to protect your phone.
It's protected completely, so you can toss it in the backpack or wherever, and it's "naked" while in use - best of both worlds.
When I bought my Silver one, i bought it because of its awesome design. Then after about 1 week, fear in me won and I bought 2 cases - Belkin - i don't recommend this one, as it doesn't copy htc one deign very well, next was Incipio Frequency in black color. First month-or two it was ok, but then volume buttons started squeaking when pressed. It just lose it's tightness, and I must say, that i didn't put my phone in and out very often...
Then i bought chaeap PU leather pouch from ebay, which I use till now (10 months). I am even thinking about stop using the pouch as well.
Don't be fool like me, and don't spend money on those ugly cases, don't forget why did you buy this awesome phone, because of design !

Hey, sorry for the late answer.
At the moment I am using this one (black colour):
http://www.ebay.com/itm/11-Color-Ne...Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&var=&hash=item2c8351f9be
The only downside is, that after about 10 months, the corners and edges started "chipping" off the pouch, as it's PU leather. If they were available in my country, I would go either for Bugatti or Sena leather pouches Sena is probably one of the best for M7 (according to reviews). Dad has Bugatti for his Iphone 5s, and it's excelent pouch
I like it might try order one
Hi,
I know you have put ideally UK, I'm from the UK I bought my HTC One M7 Black in November 2014 and the case the previous user was using was a see through gel case, it protected the phone but didn't look good.
Just before xmas I ordered this case:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/UltraThin..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item51c54186c6
Its from hong kong, which I wasn't happy with but there is no UK Seller selling this case. It took just over a week to come but its a top case, protects the phone, feels good in the hand and looks good got a matte black finish.

Hey, sorry for the late reply. Unfortunately I don't have my digital camera with me to take pictures of it.
Thought I would start a new 'case thread' for the Z Fold 2, as the current one in this forum is very US orientated and the cases discussed there - are simply not available in the UK right now.
I will kick this off though with a high level of frustration, that this is the hardest phone to get a bloody case for! Especially given that it's one of the most fragile. Sure you can pay £80 for a flimsy bit of leather that only protects the back of the phone from Samsung. That's just a crazy price and poor value for money. But as far as I know that's the only case available to buy today (28th September).
I ordered the following Araree Bonnet leather Case from MobileFun 3 weeks ago and it's still out of stock for at least another 3 weeks:
https://www.mobilefun.co.uk/araree-bonnet-samsung-galaxy-z-fold-2-5g-wallet-stand-case-black-82183
There are no other cases available from them, they are all out of stock. Same with Amazon, where you are going to be waiting for several weeks before items are in stock. I really don't understand why, I have never had this issue with a new phone before, there were cases available for the Note 20 Ultra 2 weeks prior to the release date.
Yeah the case situation is pathetic. Just using the official leather at the moment as its better than nothing.

I think Samsung are charging way too much for the leather one, I bet they deliberately priced it so high because the people likely to buy this phone have a bit more cash to splash. Or that they know the cases are in short supply.
I bought the official leather case for my Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. It's twice the size of the Fold 2 case but cost considerably less, £30 (with a discount) and even that was too much in my opinion. I really need one that protects the cover screen, hence the reason I went for the Araree case.

Don't all flame me for this post... but I bought the cheap (China) faux leather hard case on ebay for £5 gbp and its actually perfectly fine. Its also available as UK stock for about £9 with quicker delivery
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/UK-STOCK...var=661853030175&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
The rear cover fully protects the camera bump and sides.
The front cover protects the edges of front screen and sides (but does make swiping down from top of screen gesture a bit hit and miss for my big fingers)

Good to know about this.
The one you bought is not the same one I was looking at but similar:
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/392948709396
It's cheap but it's better than nothing, I just ordered it now, because I really need something to protect this phone until something more premium comes along.
So thanks for sharing the link, I will update here when I receive the one I just bought!

So I ordered a cheap case off eBay whilst I wait several weeks for a much better one. Supposed to arrive this week. Of course on eBay, "UK STOCK" posted by Royal Mail that takes over a week to arrive means only one thing of course... they are being sent from China. Which I mostly expected when I ordered but took a chance that maybe someone was being honest. No wonder people claim item hasn't arrived and get their money back and still get to keep the item.
I am getting desperate for ANY kind of case for this phone, but the only one available from Samsung is the leather one (£80) or pay £150 upwards from a shark on eBay who clearly only snapped up a whole load of decent cases to add 200% mark up profit, adding over £100 to a £50 case. Crooks.
So no cases available in the UK at a non inflated price. I checked all the usual online outlets and all citing 'expected' stock in 3-4 weeks. What a frustrating crazy situation, for such a premium and arguably delicate phone, why on earth is there such a shortage here?

Update: One of the cases arrived today, just a hard clear back cover:
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/For-Sams...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
It fits perfectly and will protect the back glass at least. It seems good quality for the £3 I paid, but like all these kind of cases , it adds weight to the phone on one side. Still it's better than nothing!

The £5.99 cases on eBay UK are pretty good and protect.botg the front and back ... I bought the black one which is exactly the same as the Spigen Thin-Fit case but without the brand name and for a fraction of the price

I am starting to think Samsung, Spigen and others are taking Z fold2 owners for mugs with over inflated pricing on cases...

Yeah, you're absolutely right, the premium cases for this (very expensive) phone, are almost impossible to source, and when you eventually find one they are over-inflated prices. Trouble is sellers know that desperate consumers (who possibly have more cash than your average consumer) will eventually part with their money to protect such a valuable phone. But I am not falling for that. I have had an order for the Araree Bonnet leather case with MobileFun for over a month now and it's still showing at least a further month for stock to arrive. It's a quality leather cover case and is only costing me £35. In the meantime I am just keeping it in a neoprene pouch. The snakes on eBay buying these up and selling them for £180 - I hope someone screws them over at some point.
Anyway thanks for the link to the one you bought. The bezel on the front cover looks very thick though. Is that a bit awkward to use? I ordered a similar cheap Chinese one off eBay just to tide me over.

The only problems are swiping from the edge gestures (eg open side-bar swipe from right or notifications bar swipe down from top) which are difficult and a bit of trial and error at times. I am old school and use the 3 button navigation so not sure if gesture navigation is affected or not.
All things considered tho I prefer to use this (inexpensive) Chinese made case to protect my expensive new phone until such time as mid priced (£20 max) cases from popular brand names are widely available and are actually in stock.
P.S. for the first few days I before my case arrived i used a "sock" or "sleeve" repurposed with the fabric mesh bag that came free with my Anker 10,000mAh portable battery. Better than nothing.

I've got the VRS Hard Drop active on order, for the time being i'm just carrying it in a 'ShockSock' which to be fair does the job well

Direct from the VRS website, I got a 15% off code (SMILEAGAIN30) when I went on the site, I think it was $53 dollars all in for the case and postage. The discount basically gave me near free postage.
I went for the black version, shipping at the end of the month apparently...so ShockSock it is till that arrives
I just received one of the Chinese two piece black plastic ones that were shown in this thread. The frame for the front part is very stiff and while this means it will stay put, the amount of force needed to put it on has scared me from doing so. I don't want to scratch my phone putting a case onto it! Or am I worrying unnecessarily? I much prefer the softer gel ones.

I think you may be worrying unnecessarily about the front cover I have had the Chinese case on my fold2 for 3 weeks now and no marks visible (I only removed it to check after reading your post ). Also I left the factory fitted front screen protector on the glass so I guess i have the additional scratch protection provided by the film cover.
I'm not in the UK, but the Netherlands.
I'm currently using the Shocksock I had for the original Fold, now on the Fold 2. It doesn't fit as well as on the original, but it's OK.
I bought a Fitbag from Germany, but those things are precision-made, and even with Samsung's very thin leather back cover on the phone, the whole thing becomes too fat for the sleeve.
The VRS case looks nice. Has anyone received theirs yet?
Another nice-looking one is the Spigen thin case.
There's rarely a source for any of these cases in the Netherlands, so ordering from the US is expensive and is often fraught with extra charges at the door.
