Spigen for Galaxy Z Fold 5 Case, Slim Armor Pro (2023) [Hinge Protection] - Black

Item fits the phone like a glove and works with other screen protectors not just it's brand. Looks good and is sleek

I recently purchased the Spigen Slim Armor Pro case for my Galaxy Z Fold 5, and I couldn't be more satisfied with my choice. This case offers an outstanding blend of durability and sleekness, making it a perfect companion for my phone.**Design and Build Quality:**The Slim Armor Pro case features a multi-layered construction that includes polycarbonate and impact foam, ensuring excellent protection against drops and impacts. Despite its robust build, the case maintains a sleek and stylish appearance that complements the modern design of the Galaxy Z Fold 5. The precise cutouts for the camera, buttons, and ports are perfectly aligned, offering seamless functionality.**Hinge Protection:**One of the standout features of this case is its hinge protection. The semi-auto sliding technology ensures that the hinge is well-protected without adding bulk or interfering with the folding mechanism. This is a critical aspect for any foldable phone case, and Spigen has executed it flawlessly.**Drop Protection:**Equipped with Spigen’s Air Cushion Technology, the Slim Armor Pro provides excellent drop protection. The raised edges around the screen and camera offer additional safety, ensuring that these sensitive areas are less likely to suffer damage from accidental drops.**Usability:**Despite the added protection, the case does not hinder the phone's usability. It remains compatible with wireless charging, which is a significant convenience. The textured surface provides a good grip, reducing the likelihood of accidental slips.**Overall Experience:**In summary, the Spigen Slim Armor Pro case is a fantastic investment for anyone looking to protect their Galaxy Z Fold 5. It combines robust protection with a sleek design, making it an ideal choice for those who want to keep their phone safe without compromising on style. Whether it’s the precise cutouts, the innovative hinge protection, or the overall build quality, this case has exceeded my expectations in every way.

I had another case before this one, which was big and bulky, I did not like it.This case is AMAZING! It keeps the phone slim, looks amazing, and protects it well.When I get my Z Fold 6 or 7, I will be purchasing another one of these cases, that is how good it is.Only draw back is, that it does not have a S Pen holder. But I don't use the S Pen, so not an issue for me.

tl;dr:+ Fits well+ seems to offer good protection+ slip+ hard plastic back for accessories- front is held on only by adhesive strips- hinge cover is spring loaded, connected only to rear- relies on the user to press the hinge out to close, rather than pull the hinge cover- hinge cover will take abuse from user pulling on it for leverage when opening.Long version:The case seems sturdy. I would compare it to an otterbox commuter case as opposed to their defender line. the rear half snapped on snugly with no signs of movement, though the front "cover" is little more than a frame that covers the edges. (to be fair, you would have a hard time doing more) But the front cover does not clip on, it sort of slides on over the phone and uses little adhesive tabs to stay in place. These seems secure enough, but time will tell if they begin to fail after needing to pull on the case to open the phone. And that's a big part as well, the way the phone is designed, and the case as well, you will need to pull on the hinge cover of the case in order to get the leverage to open the phone unless you have a surface to put the phone on everytime you open it. this goes equal for closing. unless you like the idea of pressing on the inside screen to get the phone to fold, you will find yourself pulling on the hinge cover so that the phone-hinge buckles enough to fold.Overall, a good case for what it is. Considering the options available, I would probably buy it again. But the otterbox version has the hinge attached to BOTH halves.

I (accidentally) left my phone on the top of my car, drove about 2 miles, went around a curve and my Bluetooth stopped.... It was then I realized I messed up. After trying to track my phone down, expecting the worse... Imagine my shock when I found the phone in perfect condition, but the case beat to hell...If you're in doubt, get the case

Case is decent, great feeling in hands, feels like it can handle some abuse. However, the inside front corner keeps coming undone and I have yet to fully use my phone (sitting on my desk) and I know after a few in/out times from my pocket will fully remove/break the inside corners. This wouldn't have been to much of a issue if the case wasn't so expensive. I was expecting a better fitting case for the price, my assumptions were wrong.Update 2 months later. Front case protector is now broken. Definitely regret purchasing

It has rather a simple design. However, it is clean, neat, sturdy, and fits nicely. If it only came with the matching front screen protector and camera lens protector at reasonable additional price, that would have been great. I find it hard to find screen / lens protectors that matches with the case these days. Fortunately, Spigen sells matching front screen protector. And with great luck, my previous lens protector from a different company perfectly (really perfectly) matched with this case. It looks and feels like it is made for this very Spigen case! That is what made me to give one more star to this case.
