Hey everyone,
Since I typically use a flip case (a regular case with a protective cover for the screen that flips open) with all the phones I've owned, I thought I'd open a thread to start a discussion about people's experiences and recommendations with flip cases for the 6T.
Share something and help someone with what product to use!
Reserved
I'm currently using this one:
Foluu Compatible OnePlus 6T Case,... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07K2S5DFC?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf
Pros:
+ magnetic edge on flip cover afixes the flip cover to the back, neatly preventing flapping
+ the sides of the phone are completely covered by a transparent bumper, with cutouts only for usb, alert slider, and speakers
+ relatively screen protector friendly
Cons:
- not a smart cover
- back cover is not a single piece with the sides, adding to bulk
Again, the pro/con list reflects my personal preferences and of course, may not apply at all to you.
Orzly Wallet Flip Case looks decent enough. I am currently using the oneplus 6t flip case with card slot, and its okay. Doesnt flap much, but it does not compare to my last otterbox strada case for the iphone 8 plus. Still looking for something similar.
I've also purchased some ringke 3m card slots, both the plastic and the nylon to add to the tpu cover that was included with the phone. Although not a flipcase, the downside with not having a solid magnet or full edge protection gives higher probability of the phone landing face down when dropped.

I second the motion -- the Otterbox Strada on my Samsung S7 Edge is the gold standard for me. Most expensive case I've bought but has lasted many multiples longer than any other case. It's still a tank and still in use nearly three years later.
Closest case for OnePlus to that standard was the Tech21 flip case for my 6. Don't think they make it for the 6T though.
I'm using the flip case that I got from OnePlus when it's working fine.I've had better and I've had worse but pretty good I'm happy. No issues,, thinking about getting a OtterBox when they come out just for safety. But they're so big and bulky and ugly.,,,,,,,, I guess we'll see
I like cases.
My wife thinks that I have a fetish for phone cases.
I change them when I go out depending on what I feel like.
Here are the flip cases that I have purchased so far;
https://www.ebay.ca/itm/For-OnePlus...var=472229251615&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649
The traditional brown leather flip case.

Old School fun right here... I have purchased so many freaking cassettes over the years.. ugh. Why not put my phone in one...
I chose the white and green tape.
https://ca.mobilefun.com/olixar-xtome-leather-style-oneplus-6t-book-case-brown-70015
Old brown leather bound book.
I think that this book one will be my favorite flip case.
Only the Cassette tape case has come in so far.
It's a bit larger then a real cassette tape and it's a big large for the phone.
Then I've purchased another half dozen or so hard cover cases/non flip.

Damn, your wife's probably right..!
But it could be worse: you could have a phone fetish instead of a phone case fetish, and that would be much more expensive.
The flip cases that I have ordered so far have come in.
Also, two of the hard cases have arrived as well. (As an aside, I don't like any of those yet. We will see if the rest of the hard cases are any better)
I like the oneplus oem flip case because it is the only one that has a magnetic feature that turns the screen on and off.
That is nice.
But I find it too small and it doesn't offer much protection.
And it only has one debit card slot.
Not useful as a wallet.
The oneplus, cassette tape and book flip cases do not have a magnetic clasp to keep them closed.
I kind of like that feature.
It gives me a fidget to play with.
And it makes it more noticeable if someone opens the case to take my debit card? Dunno.
Lol
Taking a look at the back side of these cases, some of them are not like the others.
Some of the cutouts look off.
I haven't checked them to see if it affects function or not.
Honestly I don't use the camera much anyways.
If anyone has any questions about these cases, let me know and I will do my best to answer them.
If anyone has a suggestion of another flip case for me to try out, then I am all ears!
P.S. And yes. The book is my favorite case so far. Followed by the Tardis.
Hi, I am looking for the same, but it is so hard... I know exactly what I want but all of the good looking cases are plastic inside and all the silicone ones are not-so-good looking.
Anyone found so far a sleek and elegand flip case with silicone inside?

This is a pretty decent hybrid case. I uploaded a few pictures to Amazon to give more people a better chance to see what it looks like since the seller only uploaded a picture of the back, and I have the only review on Amazon as well if you want to hear what I thought about it. Basically, it's a good fit but I'm not the biggest fan of how it feels in my hand and how much thickness it adds. I honestly feel like they could have made the silicone thinner where it's covered by hard plastic and reduced the overall thickness by a lot. It's not the end of the world, but we'll see how long I have it on there before I take if off and go all slim-n-sexy again.
Also, for whatever reason Amazon didn't like my picture of the packaging so I'm attaching a picture of the mailer it comes in and the packaging you have to open. It's pretty standard stuff, but it's here for you to look at just in case.
Edit: Typo.
How do the buttons feel?

This is the case I decised on too. I works, very light, but I'm not sure how much protection it offers. Coming from a Seidio Active case on an iPhone 4, this is a let down, but there aren't many choices. I'd rate it a 6 overall

Agreed - But there's not much case love for the AT&T OG so we're at the mercy of this type of case unless Seidio or Otterbox or such changes their mind about making something for us.
I got this case off eBay, just received it yesterday. For a case being under $10 its not bad and I feel it will protect it from a mild drop just fine. Also the silicone on the front has a raised lip so if you set the phone face down its not on the screen. The only real down side is that the case covers the power button so no notification light now.
I'll add pictures of mine, since its blue might be easier to see then the black case.

How does the case feel?
I purchased the one from Ventev that looks identical to this case. I sent that one back because the "TPU" it said the case was made of was really hard kinda felt like plastic. That made the buttons hard to push. Is the rubber the case made out of hard or soft like tradition TPU? I want this case because I like the two layers of protection but I dont want another case that was like the Ventev case. For now I have the Diztronic case on it and I took the plastic shell off the Belkin case and it fit over the Diztronic TPU case with little force and its like a makeshift Otterbox Commuter.

I just replaced mine with the Fusion Hybrid, I like it much better...
After only like 2 weeks, the "silicone" was stretching. It's actually more like a molded foam, and the plastic hard shell only holds it to the phone in a few areas. The plastic shell on the Fusion Hybrid actually seems to be a lot more stiff and holds it on three sides. The silicone feels a lot better on the new case as well, seems more dense...
For less than $10, neither is terrible, but I'd spend on the Fusion Hybrid...
** I will post some pictures later today - I'm at work currently **
The Nillkin Fresh case came about 2-3 days ago and I was quite excited. But that was short lived. The case is a faux-leather flip cover case with a thin plastic shell on that clips to the phone. It looks decent enough, but I have some problems with mine (possibly QC problems):
The case though didn't completely fit!! Along the right side (near the SD/SIM) it is a bit warped - not bad or noticeable unless your looking right at it and for it.
The case is held closed by a magnet, but the magnet on the flip cover is quite small which then requires it to be precisely over the other pole or it does nothing. Not a big deal, but I wish this was thought out better.
Additionally, one of the main features of the case is (link below) how the case being used as a stand. The flip cover is a tri-fold design which should act as a stand but I haven't had much luck with it. The inside of the seemingly leather flip cover is a soft touch, almost suede, material that is quite slippery. This plus the fact that the case seems to be needing to be broken in makes for the "stand" feature unusable... it falls right over currently. (I have tried multiple configurations).
Over all, I bought the case on eBay for $9.99 with no shipping cost (ships from china - companies home country) and it took about 15 days to get here (in the US). Not bad, but I am already looking for a replacement that will make my device feel premium again rather then cheap.
Would I recommend this case? Yes, but only as a temporary case until more come out - like the official Sony cases or a case from Incipio (link below).
** Complete side note: I had a Nillkin case for my old Nexus 4 which only lasted a few short months because the leather started to peel away from the flip cover! I knew this would be a temporary case when I bought it, so keep that in mind!
http://www.nillkin.com/english/proshow.asp?mid=2&sid=0&tid=0&cid=1&scid=13&id=3526&page=1
http://www.incipio.com/cases/smartphone-cases/sony-smartphones/sony-xperia-z-ultra-cases.html
I was fortunate to get to try that case out and many others (being in hk and china) - and I posted about this case. It's unfortunate you didn't read my post and what case eventually went with in the big Z ultra case thread.
This case is definitely not recommended if you want one to work well with desk stand, and want to use the trifold ipad style cover as a stand.
The snap-in style plastic mounts doesn't make it easy to pop in and out of to use the desk stand, and the plastic mounts are shiny thus looks and feels cheap.
Finally, the cover doesn't even come close to the quality and feel of the ipad cover, even the vinyl kind. The material is stiff and plasticky and most importantly doesn't fold together to function as a working stand at all. It will unfold/collapse and fall over.
In addition, there's an issue with the the magnet. With the magnet closed, there is a gap between the last third of the tri-fold cover and the phone's screen. This gap exists because the case (mold or design) is not the right fit - the wider flap makes it essentially unable to align with the opposing magnet. If you try to push the flap down to get rid of the gap, you inadvertently push/slide the magnet off and the cover comes loose. In practice, the magnet will never be engaged because you'll always push the cover down somehow (pocket, bag, stacking something on top).
The only Nillkin I recommend is the http://www.nillkin.com/english/proshow.asp?mid=2&sid=0&tid=0&cid=1&scid=13&id=3516&page=1 shield case. I ended up buying the black one for scenarios where I don't want a flip cover. The fit is good, texture is good (good grippy backside), and it doesn't look too cheap (no shiny plastic). It's decent protection for rougher than usual situations. There are sections where there's a thin piece of plastic on the edge of the phone (like over the usb flap) where it feels weak, cheap and easily breakable. Besides that only issue, I like this case as a back-up.
For a flip cover case that works well with a desk stand, actually stands up, and feels decent quality - I recommend Kaso and Krussell. I went with Kaso as a cheaper alternative for now.
So I guess it's not just me... which is kind of a bummer, but I have already found a replacement. Now if only October 22 was here (my Birthday) I could get a new case!
Thanks for the replay, some good thoughts there!

Funny how the 2 Nillkin cases the OP talks about are the exact 2 I bought online.
I bought the white Fresh, and Yellow leather.
Anyway, after having used both, now I know that flip covers, despite the protection it gives, tend to get in the way of general use. Answering calls involve one extra hassle step.
Taking pictures, you have to roll the flip cover up into the triangle as if you are going to use it as a stand and hold it in your left hand, because simply flipping it and folding it over will obstruct the camera.
Nothing wrong with the build quality...I am sure it is better than most cheapos out there. All the useful ports are left uncovered (one of the reasons why I chose Nillkin...there is actual thought process that has gone into the design). If you want to use the magnetic charging port, not many other manufacturers apart from Nillkin make them uncovered.
The yellow I chose is less vibrant in colour (than what it seemed on screen), and does not go so well with the white ZU I have, so that got retired until the day I get SBH-52 and leave my phone in the bag.
For the Nillkin Fresh, I got in white, and am very happy with it, and currently in use.
It has a nice tight fit, seems to be made of good tough plastic, and the texture on the back helps with general grip.
I did make one modification to it, because even though the magnetic charging port is left open by design, it was impossible to get a good connection while the pone was still in the case. So I cut off the thin strip that runs along the screen side of the mag port. Filed it down with nail clipper file, and now it is perfect. It has not lost structural rigidity.
The number of times that i thought that I had closed the USB port properly, but was still slightly open (thus not making it fully waterproof) has prompted me to get the magnetic charging cable. I knew it was something I wanted while I was out choosing the case, so for those who are still looking for cases, I won't say go Nillkin, but make sure you go for one that has the magnetic charging port uncovered.
Whether you buy DK-30 is a different debate. Some like it, but some find it expensive for what it is. There are not many covers out there tat allow you to dock with it on.
But the USB magnetic charging cable is something I believe every ZU owner should have. For that reason get a cover with the port uncovered.

I came back to post a quick update about the case I got and this caught my eye... actually the build quality is the reason as well!!
The case is broken ><. On the top left hand side (near the charging port) the case has snapped. A piece is broken clean off and only after about 2 weeks. I know the case was $10, but I also had build quality issues with a Nexus 4 case, so I am going to say the quality is rather low.
With this new information, I am going to say stay away from this case. The long import time (from HK to US), and poor quality aren't worth it. Spend the few extra bucks and get a quality case you will have for more than a few weeks.
Just my 2 cents though...
toonhead85
Really interesting idea for a case. I think it is probably one of the few cases that stands out from your typical tpu, dual hybrid, or heavy bumper style cases. The back fabric is a soft tweed material (think old sport coat or blazer jacket) and there's a nice leather pouch sewn right into the center for your cards. You can check it out HERE
The thing I like about the case is that it kind of warms up the S7 if that makes sense. The S7 feels cold because it's all glass and metal so the leather with the fabric accents on this case make it feel and look different. Some people would probably say this is the most hipster looking case since it kind of reminds of a moleskin notebook or some other type of handmade leather work, but I think that speaks to the quality of their stuff.
I wouldn't put in more than 1 or 2 cards because it will definitely stretch but if you're looking for something different this case might fit your needs.
I bought this case and I do not recommend it at all. Design and concept are very nice but functionality is not. Once you put 1-2 cards in the back, the side lips warp backwards and leave your screen completely exposed. Completely defeats the function of the card slot in the back, not to mention that it highlights how loose the case is on the sides.
Hello Everyone,
Figured I will start a discussion about cases available for the Razer Phone 2. Please feel free to place your input on the cases that you are rocking or found online for the phone.
Regarding what case I am using at the moment, I went with the Razer Phone 2 Word Case - Black. So far it is the only case that I have found for this phone and from what I have heard it is the best choice (For Now)
As far as the feeling of the case, It will give you the necessary grip for the phone. It feels just like the Soft Rubber Cases for the iPhone, which is not bad at all. There is some Alcantara in the inside of the case for the backing and this should prevent scratches on the back of the phone. :good: The case does feel thin and flexible when you wrap it on the phone, I've had instances when I pull the phone from my pocket and the corner is a bit off ( not a big deal )
Overall protection The sides are protected for the most part. The Top and Bottom parts of the phone are exposed; however, there is a protrusion on the top and bottom that will protect it if you accidentally slide it on a flat surface. There is also a protrusion on the front end that will protect the phone is you decide to place it face down on a Flat surface, this will let you enjoy the RGB! :good: On a side note I also have the tempered glass, that is sold by Razer, installed and with the case I can still place it on a flat surface and there is still a small gap between it and the surface.
That back side adds a centimeter of protrusion to protect the camera when you place it down. Again this is only if you place it on a flat surface, anything that is bumpy and you are playing with fire.
The back part also exposes the Razer logo bit too much, in my opinion, I would like to see it match the logo of the Razer; but, this will probably block the RGB from certain angles.
I will recommend this case highly when you first buy the phone, I was running with the phone Naked for the first week while I waited for the case to be shipped. I got some small scuffs on the sides of the phone by the volume button.
Hope this helps and I am looking forward to your experiences with other cases.
I too went with the Razer word case but in green since black is back ordered. This phone is really slick so I'll be happy when it comes in to give me a better grip.
I have the same as you, and I love the look and set up. This is my first Razer, I am NOT a gamer, I just think it's about the coolest phone out. And I have a ton of them!

I agree! I don't game either on mobile; however, I do listen to a lot of music and the speakers are what makes this phone great for me
Hey guys!
I contacted The awesome folks at tudia and they have given us a discount on their merge case. The Code is 20RAZER2.
This was the best third party case for the RP1 imo so go ahead and get your discount!
Also if you could pop a comment and thank Tudia for the discount
https://www.reddit.com/r/razerphone...e_2_presale_20_off/?utm_source=reddit-android
Finally got my case in after my first order with Amazon got lost. The green word case is definitely a case I won't lose, it fits fine and is pretty minimalistic. seems to for nicely and is comfortable in the hands. It's also very easy to remove if you need to.
Just installed a DBrand skin on my RP2 and it is good so far, the only problem I have is that the logo cut out is pealing off. Not from messing with it, just from taking it out from my pocket every so often. I do have the Black Razer case over it as well.
Just giving you all a heads up when purchasing if. I'm all for it since it will protect the sides and the back from scratches that can occur even of you have a case on it.
Hope this helps!
Hello all,
I have the Razer brand carbon fiber case. It fits very well and looks really cool. After people see the unique phone and glowing snakes they realize the case is also unique. The whole look is just like no other device out there. The only drawback I see is the case is extremely thin so the camera module is vunerable. On the plus side,it adds very little size to the phone.
I just received the black Razer Word case today. It's noticiably thicker than the carbon fiber case and does a better job of protecting the camera and the device as a whole, but it doesn't seem to fit as tightly and pops off the side of the phone frequently as Same Old Dude mentioned.
Hope this helps.
I want a slim hard case

You can get the Kevlar Case from Razer. Kinda pricey at 50 bucks. Or you can do a skin.
I'm using the light case as i don't want any cut holes on the back (dust issues) , so far I like it, adds abit of grip and feels solid, except for finger print smudges issues haha
then i found a brand call Olixar that sells soft rubber translucent cases and in the product photos there is no hole, but when i receive it the case has Hole! sadness..
why do they put a hole when the case is translucent.. doesn't make sense.
anyways, if you guys know any translucent case without holes (except for the light case by razer) let me know
I went with the green word case. I was hoping Ringke would come up with a Fusion case but I guess not
Holster case.
If anyone is looking for a way to holster the R2, I tries a couple iPhone 8 Plus holsters and found this "Encased" iPhone 8 Plus holster set works pretty good to hold the R2 with the UaBids rubber case. Looks good, too. Amazon - Encased iPhone 8 Plus Belt Clip Case with Built in Screen Protector (American Armor) Heavy Duty Full Body Rugged Cover with Holster (Black)
I am curious if the Artech case will ever be released for the RP2. It's out for the iPhone. I'm going to wager that the phone case will be delisted soon with no launch.

I am actually looking for a holster. But I don't understand how this will work I looked it up it looks like it's two pieces The holster and the actual iPhone 8 case and if I put that case on my phone how is it going to fit? And the camera cutouts in the button cutouts are different so I don't really get it unless I'm looking at the wrong thing. I do have a generic holster that fit my phone perfectly until I put a case on it and wants to I got the case on it it did not fit my phone perfectly anymore it was slightly opened and because of that it fell out of the case in the middle of the street got ran over by multiple cars completely shattered my phone and I had to get a new one and I had to get a new one and I had to get a new Razer phone 2. I don't want to risk it anymore but it's a very big phone uncomfortable in my pocket so I really want to holster but one that I can fit with the case. This would be perfect if it was actually designed for the Razer phone 2 but I just don't get how it's going to work with the iPhone 8 one. If you had a moment to clarify it would be highly appreciated. Thanks for all your help!

Thanks, I just found a perfect one though that fits with my case, was 10 bucks at a little shop down the street"Reiko" Brand with card holders!
I can confirm the Tudia case does not work very well with wireless charging. I can get it to work, but I have to lay the phone on its side. Just ordered the Spigen Liquid Air Armor and will see how that fares.
[Edit] Got the Spigen case and that seems to work a little better. Seems like the RP2 is very finicky about where it wants to be placed for wireless charging to work.
Just wanting to see what all cases everyone is getting for their S20 Ultra. I am debating on getting the UAG Monarch Series case again. Their really good cases and not bulky at all.
I've preordered the Samsung Protective Standing Cover along with the phone.
I've also ordered a Zizo Bolt.
I used to like UAG Monarch, UAG Plasma and Otterbox Symmetry cases, but they offer very little drop protection at the bottom lip, which is loose.
Also thinking of getting the Speck Presidio Grip and Gear4 Battersea.
I work in a factory environment so defender/whitestone all the way...
I'm trying to find one that will a) have built-in magnets for magnetic mounting (want them built-in so there's no bulge from inserting a flat one between the case and the phone so it lies flat on it's back), and b) have those magnets in a place where it minimizes disruption to wireless charging. The only one I was able to find for my S9 was by Pitaka (with their own magnetic mount, which makes sense since the magnets are in a non-standard location), but the case had an issue where the top/bottom/side lips wouldn't extend past the front face to protect the screen from lying flat on it's front on a desk.

I'm sticking with the Unicorn Beetle Pro by supcase,been rockin that case for years throughout my different Notes and S series phones.Just as good as Otterbox defender but way cheaper.Win,Win in my opinion.

Nice- thanks!
Pitaka, since many years, for day to day / office, dBrand Grip case (with custom pitaka plates under the back sticker) as a self made 'Pitaka pro' for days with higher demand for protection.
Using Pitaka in the car daily, so I want that option ti stick it to my magnetic Qi charger in the car.
Latercase for me. Probably the DBrand case and skin also
I'll go with the Spigen Neo Hybrid. Slim enough not to be embarrassing, but offers drop protection. Gone are the days of OB Defender, UAG, etc. Second option would be the SupCase Unicorn Beetle.
I also buy the QuadLock case for the Summer, to use with my bike.
Black leather offical from their site. Although most of the time I don't use a case even though I should. But given the hefty price tag it probably will be wise to keep it on

The (Samsung) black leather case was nice from the S10+ series. Got an open box from Best Buy for $29 in perfect condition although the package looked like Flossy opened it! LOL. The silicone IMO was junk!
The rugged (Samsung) case is great, the kickstand comes in handy. I have one on my S10 5G and Note 10+ and will be picking one up for the S20U.
I may splurge and get the Pitaka for the S20U as the pics I've seen with the phone in it just look plain sick!
I'm gonna start with the Caseology Parallax and Spigen Neo Hybrid for now. Got them both on the way!
Spigen Rugged Armor, already in hand lol
Been using S-view cover on N10+ since September, it does great screen protection job, don't want anything else for my S20 Ultra. Scratch protection 24/7 and a piece of mind when the phone is being put into or taken out of jacket or pant's pockets. My N+10 screen still has a 'mint' looks even after 6 months of use w/o any protective film, I peeled that off right after getting it.

I don't see an s-view cover for the Ultra on Samsung's website. S20 and S20+ have it.

Well, when I was writing my previous post I just assumed that they will have S-view case for S20s, most Samsung phones have it and now I found it, they don't list the price yet:

Cool!
Gone for the grey samsung case with the stand option , abit dull but it protects the phone , second choice would be a case from spigen
Spigen Rugged Armour. Went with it for the S9+, S10+ and now S20U. Protected my phone perfectly for 3 years so why change
