Hardly see nice deal and lazy to wait anymore. Just naik kereta with Fold 7 512gb during the TMT 28th roadshow with 6699. Totally cannot find the less than 6k deal that ppl share on older posts.

I finally folded and got myself a 512gb unit for under 5.5k since 11.11 deal was too good to not fold to...

Anyone here using Nilkin Super Frosted case?

I need a case to use for 2 months ish till Dbrand Grip case gets shipped

Such a good price. How much and which shop from? Lucky managed to sell mine before. I’m not using that case but recommend the slim ringke one. Nice grip, slim and light.

Hi, I am the one using Nilkin Super Frosted (brought about RM78 at Shopee), Use it since 1st day own the Fold 7 (2 Aug 2025), this case fit nicely and most important is how slim it is with the hinge protection. Drop 2 times, the case and phone seems still fine. But the downside is the hinge is magnet type, so it will "glide" the hinge little bit so some area of the hinge may have hairline scratch after month or two but it is still better than naked without protection.

One thing well noted is, since the hinge "stick" itself when you folded by magnet inside the hinge protector cover and a top layer of plastic sticker, overtime the double seletape inside will become unstick and the magnet come out, lead to the hinge cover will not stick with the hinge.

Then, you can just fixe it with super glue that glue the magnet back into the hinge cover and then it will be fine. (I have glued both up and bottom after it come out, now over a month already, still stick good)

I have compare this case with other more expensive case like Spigen, this is cheaper and still has great protection. Most important is slim, most 360 protection case like Araree is very thick especially near the hinge cover joint.
Also, last note is the front cover, this case also has very accurate cutting design, so it fit very nice BUT, I change the adhesive stripe (included spare in box) from the left part to right bezel , upper part (near spearker grill) and lower part, so the left bezel is still flexible (moving), (please review the pictures below, I stick the adhesive in red color mark, the blue color mark has adhesive that factory installed, but I remove it)

WHY ?

Because I have Samsung Anti-Reflective screen protection installed, so if I put the adhesive near the left bezel of this cover, I afraid it will "stick" on the screen protector and later it peal off the screen protector since the bezel is so thin, it will move.

So, rather than put the adhesive there (it already put there when you got the case, but I remove it) I put all 3 side with adhesive (not plan to remove front case unless it spoil or want to remove SIM card) , if you often remove SIM card, you still need to open front cover, so I rather stick that 3 side to reduce the risk of being damage my screen protector.

Even the bezel seems flexible sometimes I grab the phone, it did not harm my screen protector, and the front cover fit nicely and firm even after 3 months of heavy used (the screen protector is full of scratch now).

I strongly recommend this cover.

Amazing, thanks for your detailed review man...
I went ahead and ordered Spigen Slim Armor Pro MagFit with 2 pack of Spigen Screen Protector for like RM 280 shipped from Amazon...which seemed like a good deal when compared to shopee/lazada prices..
I am worried about case compatibility with screen protectors of different brands..

but now you making me think twice if i should just cancel this order and get the nilkin since its cheaper for the short term 2 months ish use.. laugh.gif

You are welcome my friend, honestly I strongly suggest you to cancel that expensive Spigen, this Nilkin will serve you very well (and I assume you will like it).

The screen protector from Samsung actually not bad, the anti-reflection work very very well. It come with 2pcs in box, so you can change it after it become really bad scratch. I used few Samsung screen protector already since S22U to S23U and now the Fold 7, Samsung made good quality screen protector, not only they last longer, it stick very well. Quite easy to install (take some careful step).

Enjoy your Fold 7!
