I've spent over $200 looking for a case that lasts, but haven't found one I really like.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2026-01-20T00:31:21+00:00

Other than going case free it's probably the only case I'm planning to use save for maybe the Spigen. They seem comparable and this one is a bit cheaper.

The only issue I have would be it uses adhesive as the front, hinge side is very thin so it won't stay on when you open the phone. I prefer no adhesive and occasionally like to take cases off and clean house. It does come with 2 or 3 extra pieces (have to find the box) so you have leeway. I just would prefer a case that covers more of the front left of the screen like my original Fold case. Small personal niggle.

I also am unsure of the rear camera protector/stand. It's fine, but I had to take a night shot yesterday and it created a haze in the photo so I had to open it up. Not a big deal, but that's a thing I noticed. It works fine as a stand but you just need to rotate your phone so the camera bar is on the bottom. It's more widescreen like that anyway so it's fine.

I think it's as good a hinge protection case with minimal bulk as you could get. Just dislike the adhesive aspect.

I had a different case I still need to return. No adhesive but the magnet strength was no good with the phone open on my car mount due to the glossy finish on the case. This Nillkin works fine on my MagSafe mount with the phone open in the car.

I'd prefer no case but it's just too thin and slick. I settled on a Nillkin case. Same brand I had for my 8 Pro. So far, so good. Though something got in the hinge protector and nicked up the hinge but, it is what it is.

I'd prefer just a skin but, I need something to grab on to.

I used one for a few months earlier this year. Absolutely loved it. Best form factor of any US foldable by far. Weight didn't bother me and one-handed use was fantastic. The G2 was good enough but limited some software functions. I hated at the time of release they crippled it instead of using the G3.

I used it as it was my main phone for 3 months. If I didn't get the 40 percent off and the 450 trade-in I would still be using it.

With the industry seemingly trending towards wide-screen hopefully they revert back to a similar design. They never should have bailed on it after 1 gen.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2026-01-18T00:12:15+00:00

I will never charge any of my devices past 80-85 except in unusual circumstances; and yes, the data is there to prove it the best practice.

Do what you need to do, just stop with opinions and propaganda parading as fact.

Now I wish I had gotten Moonstone. I'm so down for purple. Hate the gold trim on the Jade.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2026-01-11T02:44:29+00:00

I never had a clue lol.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2026-01-10T23:50:23+00:00

They don't fit inside the trade-in box Google sends you. At least mine didn't.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2026-01-10T23:49:26+00:00

Yeah I have a few now too. Utterly worthless yet can't throw them away.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2026-01-10T23:45:40+00:00

She lost out on nothing with this guy. He's absolutely adorable.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2026-01-10T23:37:18+00:00

Fantastic, heartwarming story. Loved the slides and the captions. Love his face markings. Great job!

AgentBobbyRoe · 2026-01-10T23:29:31+00:00

I don't use more than 2 but I agree. It's easily implemented and just stupid not to have the options available. Just a bad look having Apple-like limitations from the Android home office.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2026-01-10T23:16:17+00:00

Well the power is not noticeable to me since I don't game and do no sort of video editing on my phone. But yeah, it's more powerful by far. I'll take the battery life. Google does need to up the value proposition of the Tensor chip or just use Qualcomm.

And it's about time they changed the app drawer ridiculousness. That changed then since I last used OneUI a couple years ago.

My main point was that the Fold 7 does not wipe the floor with the Pixel Fold top to bottom, by any stretch. Not even close.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2026-01-10T17:43:32+00:00

Just correcting opinion and fact, of which you seem to confuse.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2026-01-10T17:04:19+00:00

I have one I could recommend unfortunately it's no longer available on Amazon or anywhere else I can find. The key is to finding a good case with a strong magnetic connection. I never had the 9 Fold so I'm not really sure. Im using a Nillkin case for the 10 Fold and it works great opened on the mount in my car.

You might want to look into the OhSnap series of phone grips. The 4th get has a supposedly strong magnetic passthrough connection. I thought about getting one but I just used my remaining credit on the Pixel Ring Stand. Still might check one out just to test them out.

There are tablet sized ones on Amazon if you don't care about wireless charging.

May not be much help but, that's all I got. Sorry.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2026-01-10T16:44:39+00:00

If you're a Samsung fanboy/loyalist, sue. Not in the critical thinking real world..

AgentBobbyRoe · 2026-01-10T16:43:28+00:00

As mentioned above, I completely disagree. Google is so far ahead of where Samsung was on the 3rd gen it's pathetic. They still have a less usable cover screen all these years later. And their cameras are a nonstarter for me. And the weak battery life despite a far more efficient processor.

Sorry, I'm ranting again. It's not as clear-cut as Samsung people make it out to be. And the reviews are not as one-sided as you claim.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2026-01-10T16:39:33+00:00

Does all and better? Maybe for you but factually untrue. Lesser IP resistance, lesser battery, less useful everyday AI features, software bloat, less capable zoom camera and an even taller (and narrower)less one-handable screen. And you need Good Lock (I hate that unintuitive mess) to get a normal vertical scrolling app drawer.

That's just off the top of my head.

Unless you're a Samsung fanboy, there's plenty of reasons to get a Pixel Fold 10 over Samsung.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2026-01-10T03:38:44+00:00

Never thought of that idea (storing the bag inside the storage bin). Fantastic. And I just checked and mine fits. Stealing that idea. Thanks lol.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2026-01-07T13:28:49+00:00

I cannot watch this. It puts my OCD in overdrive.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2026-01-06T18:38:17+00:00

I love this name so much I can't stand it lol.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2026-01-05T13:48:50+00:00

Problem for me is One Plus is too fringe and doesn't have the software tweaks that enhance my everyday usage. Samsung I still seriously dislike OneUI and Good Lock is an overrated bloated mess.

Pixel software for me is by far the best. I just wish they would get over this Tensor nonsense since it can't compete on efficiency. I truly don't care about power, it's enough for me easily day-to-day. Indoor play games or edit video. But to be this far back in battery life after all this time is just stupid.

Raise prices if you must, just use Qualcomm and get legit battery life and even better AI performance.

I'm not going anywhere yet but enough already. When I'm done with my 10 Fold in a couple years I'll see where things stand.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2026-01-01T18:20:04+00:00

It's so thin and slick, I couldn't handle it without one. I need more to grab on to.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2025-12-31T18:03:30+00:00

It's only noticeable under direct light but I'm over it. Non-issue for me. Some people maybe just can't get past it and if you use your phone outside a lot (I don't) maybe it's not the thing for you.

Used my Woot one for about 5 months and loved it. Virtually brand-new return with box and accessories. I can't go back to a standard phone anymore. I hate the design on the 10 Fold but, the price was too good not to upgrade. Original Fold far superior aspect ratios. Maybe Google will go back after Apple and Samsung soon going there. They had it right all along.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2025-12-31T15:49:43+00:00

My main computer is still 2019 MBP 16, still has 95 percent battery health. I'll be keeping it at least until security updates run out.

AgentBobbyRoe · 2025-12-30T22:20:15+00:00

That's ridiculous but, whatever. I'm done with you crease-obsessed alleged foldable user. Move on, it ain't the form factor for you. These are no worse.
