Pitaka cases for Galaxy Z Fold 3

Dragonix

Hello,

I like your products. I have been using them for years now. I’m considering switch from Galaxy Note series to Galaxy Fold series of phones. I noticed there is no case for Fold 3.

I’m sure the case would be more challenging to make, but at the same time I’m confident in your skills. I’m sure you would be able to figure something out. The folding phones are getting more popular now.

Is there a chance for a Galaxy Fold 3 in the future?

Hi there, thanks for your great support and trust in PITAKA for years. It is a great motivation for us.

You are not alone with the wish for a PITAKA case for Fold 3. We have got a few suggestions on it from other customers, too. As you said, folding phones will be a popular trend in the future. Our product team is considering if we are going to take the challenge and make a folding case. We will further collect market information and try to overcome technology difficulties.

We will be delighted to share with you if we decide to make the case. Before that, do you have any suggestions on the case design?

Hi, I also concur. I recently purchased a Fold 3 and assumed you’d be selling an Aramid case for it. Sorry to see, that you haven’t done so yet. Please consider it, as I’m sure they’d be a lot of interest in it.
A Fold 3 with your Aramid case on it, would definitely give a premium phone, even more of a premium look.

I previously bought one of your Aramid cases for my Galaxy S10 and loved it. Definitely superior quality.

Hi.
I have been using your products for several years now and I am very pleased, I think we are the best!!!
I also look forward to the samsung fold 3 cases, I hope that like other cases it will support the magnetic mount for the car and charging. I am sure that due to technical features it is not easy. It would also be nice to provide the ability to attach an s-pen.
As an example, I propose a two-piece case, and make the handle mount on the edge of the cover. I propose to make the mount for the car wide vertically, thereby placing more magnets in it, and fixing the smartphone folded vertically, thereby, due to the larger area of the mount itself, the smartphone will hold well, and if you open it, a large platform will also be able to hold it.
Such an idea.

I pulled the trigger on the phone. I’m going to pick up the Samsung Aramid case today.

At the moment I would imagine my dream case as the Samsung Aramid case, but without Samsung logo, and with Pitaka accessory support. Some kind of s-pen holder would be a killer feature. There are very few Fold 3 cases on the market with s-pen holders. Even an elastic loop, like in Ringke Pen Holder, but embedded into the case would be better than nothing.

I will need more hands-on time with the phone, the case and the s-pen to evaluate what might work and what will not work.

Thanks for your trust in PITAKA.
We will forward your suggestions to the Product team.
We don’t have such a plan to develop a case for Fold 3 yet. Not at least this year.
We will be happy to update you if we have any news.

Any updates on this topic? Whenever I buy a new phone I always check first if there’s a PITAKA case for it, so I can keep enjoying the premium look and feel and keep using my current PITAKA accessories. So far I’ve had the Samsung Galaxy S9+, S10+, S20+ and S21+ and I’ve never been disappointed when it comes to the PITAKA case. By the end of this year the Galaxy Z Fold 4 should be announced and I’m really anxious to finally make the switch to a foldable phone and I’m really considering buying the Fold4 as soon as it’s out. If you guys have found a good solution for a “foldable” case by then, that is.

I’d love to hear any advancements you’ve made by now in the design process of such a case and if there’s a chance you’ll be able to jump aboard by the release of the Fold4.

I think I’d already be satisfied seeing a case for only the back part of the phone, so the front still looks sleek instead of bulky with an annoying edge (like the current Samsung aramid cover). Of course then the front part won’t be properly protected, but that’s not the main goal imho. :D What’s really important for me is a sleek design with a nice finish and a smooth feel and the ability to use PITAKA magnetic mounts and wireless charging.

The Z fold 4 is out now. Any change in plans? The designs are out there, just search the express website based out of China where all of these cases are made.

Hi there,

We do have a plan to make a case for Z Fold 4.
But there is no specific time when we will release it.

Thanks for supporting Pitaka.
Let’s create something big together~

@PITAKA As for the case for the Fold 4 suggestions.

There are NO carbon cases that would protect the hinge of the phone which would be a very important part and very difficult to fix. It would be great to have one of those to protect the hinge.
If possible it would look a lot better if the hinge protection would slide symmetrically
The camera island should be protected to just a bit above it’s height but it shouldn’t be fully covered as the island has a nice color on it.
An inner soft material could be added so to not damage the glass back of the phone.
A composite with a glass back in the case to see the phones back would be a great option to have

We are in dire need of a new carbon case with a hinge protector for this device :)

Best regards and good luck :)

Hi,

I appreciate your suggestions and thoughts.
I have already forwarded to our R&D team for evaluation.

Good news.
I plan to release the aramid fiber case for Z Fold 4 by the end of this week, most likely on Friday.
You may check our website these days.

Thanks~

Do we have plans for fold 4 cases with MagEZ support?

Hello Konstantin,
Thanks for your inquiry. We thought about including the Galaxy Z Fold4 in our magnetic product system, but it didn’t work the way we wanted.

Unlike other smartphones, Fold4, combining two displays, is obviously larger and heavier. To make it magnetic or MagSafe compatible, we could embed magnets on the back of either display. The problem is our MagSafe car mounts or chargers and all MagSafe accessories in the market are designed for phones or cases with regular-sized align magnets. That means we can only magnetically attach one side of the Fold4 to the car mount or other accessories, which doesn’t look good or work well. For example, imagine we attach the Fold4 to the MagEZ Car Mount Pro. The phone could easily fall off the car mount since only one side is attached to the mount. If we attach a power bank to the Fold4, the phone becomes thicker and harder to hold, especially when we fold it.

In conclusion, since making the Fold4 magnetic or MagSafe compatible doesn’t give us more convenience like we do with iPhone 14 or other phones, we decided to offer the ultra-slim Air Case instead. Without magnets, Air Case is much lighter and thinner, with a thickness of 0.5mm, giving your beautiful Fold4 a near case-less look and feel.
