I still can't find a good case with the front case. Spigen took too long to arrive from amazon.

My collection of (mostly) cheap and nasty cases, purchased from Shopee and Lazada (I got one more cheap one on the way, so not shown here, but looks like a super cheap version of item D)

My thoughts on each case:
A
Second most expensive after item C.  Plain smooth plastic, no patterns on back cover.  Easy to snap on and remove.  Makes the phone look like a real cheap whore.

B
Most expensive of the lot at > RM100, purportedly made in Korea.  Faux leather, one piece "book-type" case which covers entire phone.  Criss-cross pattern.  A real biatch to put on and remove as the sides are made of thick plastic and you may lose a fingertip or two when trying to remove it, not to mention your phone may go flying if you are a bit over-enthusiastic while removing the case.

But this is the most practical of the cases here and my favourite as it really covers the entire phone.  When opened, the front flap will cover the front screen when you hold the phone like a book, thus avoiding even more fingerprints, grease, and undesirable other-whatnots on the front screen.  The case gives a good grip.  Protects the phone when in a pocket or bag full of keys or other objects which may damage the screen.

Downsides are that it makes a thick phone even thicker.  The cutout for the microphone at the bottom next to the USB-C port is not aligned 100%.  The felt-ish material on the inside front cover attracts dust like a whorehouse attracts oil rig workers coming ashore after 2 years at sea.  Oh, and did I mention it's a pain in the behind to put on and remove?

Search for "araree fold 2" in Lazada for this case.

C
Cheapest of the lot and it shows.  No front frame.  Easy to put on and remove.  Shows the colour of your phone because it's transparent.  Not really practical, I bought it just for shits and giggles.

D
Comes with front frame and back cover supposedly made of real leather.  Smells like real leather to me too, but my olfactory senses aren't what they used to be 30 years ago.  Easy to put on and remove as the sides are made out of thinner plastic compared to item B.

Downsides are that the front frame is thick (see third and last pictures) and therefore touching and swiping edges of the front screen is going to be an exercise in patience.

I got items A, C and D from Shopee, just do a search for "fold2" or "fold 2", new items are added daily, and prices can fluctuate a bit too.

Finally, put a protector on the back camera lens bump.  While case B may protect the entire phone, the camera lens still need protection if you plan on putting the phone on the surface.

Hope this helps those who are looking for their "perfect" case.

Weird WiFi placement. After I activated eSIM, the WiFi icon moved to the left of the camera lens. Still lots of space left next to the mobile signal icons. Anyone getting this?

Your company must have a corporate account with them in order to join EPP (Employee Purchase Program).

Fold 2 linked to Windows desktop wirelessly using the Your Phone app on Win10 and Link to Windows settings on the Fold. Less need to swipe up and tap screens when I'm around my PC.

Onejoy phone pouch, with insides lined with padded neoprene, arrived from Amazon. I'm sure I could get this locally but I've some gift cards lying around unused, just enough for the pouch plus shipping here. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08CZLJL7...0?ie=UTF8&psc=1.

Waterproof, and if you're worried about those YKK zippers catching and scratching your precious Fold, the zipper zips open right until the bottom of the pouch, pouch opens wide for Fold to enter without worry of zipper. Comes with carabiner attachment at the back. Reason for getting this? I dont trust my pockets. Pocket lint and sands. With this, I can chuck it into my carry-across-the-chest-bag. Answering phone calls, not troublesome meh to unzip and take out from pouch? Galaxy Buds Live. wink.gif

Why not get a phone holster then? easy access on the belt. With the extra weight og the Fold 2, I dont trust holster. PLUS, I'm not Uncle Roger. laugh.gif

Now waiting for the last piece of the puzzle, the VRS Design case, the Hard Drop Active Case. They're having a BOGO (Buy One Get One free) case sale on all iPhone and Samsung cases! Too bad Fold 2 cases isn't BOGO.

I see no point to peel off a good protection for the inner screen considering that there is no better replacement now, but you can just peel it carefully without worry if you're tempted to do so.
