Good but not perfect
ManuelD Posted
It looks good, feels good but it's a bit thick, and with MagSafe accessories the design gets damaged and it looks dirty

Fantastic "Minimalist" Case, not for big drops
Hapkidomaster Posted
This is a fantast case that snaps on without any need for the thin tape that most other Z Fold 8 cases require to keep them in place. You can (with a little effort) pop the case off, clean it up if needed and snap it back into place. The screen protector works well against scratches and has an anti-reflective property so you won't get glare reflections if you are outside. If you need a heavy duty case against drops, this isn't it, but if you need a magsafe case, with outside protective qualities and anti-glare protective film for the outside screen...this is it. At least this case comes with the protective screen film for the outside, but the anti-glare property should be built into the front screen like it is for the inside Folded Screen.

Decent case, but not worth the price
Chris Posted
It's a decent case and it fits fine, but it doesn't offer a lot of protection. For what it costs, I expected more. It's okay, but I wouldn't pay this price for it again.

Good Feel and Light
Bojakeles Posted
These types of cases, for me, are all about adding a little bit of grip and magsafe capabilities in as thin and as light a case as possible. This case is perfect for that. Good color, good texture, adds magsafe, and keeps the thin and light phone from becoming bulky or heavy. If you are buying this to have a super protective case, then you'll be disappointed, and you should probably get better at reading descriptions and pictures. I did get this on sale for $77, and that put it roughly in line with similar case styles from Pitaka and Thinborne, and this comes with two of Samsung's anti-reflective films for the front screen.

Case is not that protective
Javier Posted
Part of the case where the phone folds is not protected, as I have seen in other cases. I give it 4 stars because the case is sleek and nice, but I don't know how it will hold up over time.

it looks nice
LeDuke Posted
pretty case that offers very little protection. if you want to maintain the look of your phone with a tiny bit of protection and at a HIGH price go ahead.

I returned it

Case fits well, but as others have noted, does not have any cover screen protection. At 60+ dollars, its way overpriced.

BobT Posted
The screen protector scratch easily. The case only covers the back half of the phone but you won't get mag safe charging with this. Plus its way overprices.

Hey there BobT, thank you for taking the opportunity to share your sentiments with us regarding your experience using the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Carbon Magnet Case. The advertised Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra Carbon Magnet Case (Model: EF-KF976SBEGUS) includes front display protection, however, not as a traditional Snap-On hard front frame. Instead, it comes with an anti-reflective front screen protector film in the box that you install separately on the cover to protect your screen from those scratches and bumps that can occur with daily use. The physical case itself snaps onto the back of the phone to provide protection to your investment. If you would like to share any other feedback with us or if you'd like further assistance, please feel free to contact Support at your earliest convenience. Thank you for being a faithful Samsung customer. - Debra

It's Half a case...just the back half.
DJMax3378 Posted
Not gonna swarm you with too much info. It's half a case. Literally just the back half. It does nothing to mitigate the wobble when the phone is placed on a flat surface. It has a very slight rubberized coating over the carbon fiber. This could just be the resin/finish, though it does make me question whether it's actually carbon fiber. It doesn't provide much additional grip in the hand. The magnets are weak. They're not strong enough for me to trust this thing on a magnetic car mount. So apparently the other half of the case wasn't the only thing Samsung forgot. In the box: 2 basic plastic screen protectors 1 carbon/pseudo-carbon plastic back cover That's it. For what Samsung charges for this, calling it a "case" is doing a lot of heavy lifting. It's half a case, doesn't fix the wobble, barely adds grip, and the magnets aren't strong enough to confidently hold the phone on a car mount. Samsung really sold the backstory instead of the whole case.

Aloha DJMax3378, thank you for inquiring about the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Carbon Magnet Case.

As you know, this case covers the rear panel of your device while the included protective film would be applied to your display to also protect the front of your display. If you would like to share any other feedback with us or if you would like additional assistance, please let us know by contacting Support at your leisure. Thank you for choosing Samsung! - Debra

What's the point of this?
MICHAELC Posted
This case is an expensive reason for magsafe. The case does not offer any real protection. There is a couple of poor quality screen protectors and the case only provides little protection on the back half of the phone top left and right corners. You can find other cases that offer magsafe capabilities for much less and provide more protection.

Couldn't be happier.
Tiger Posted
Impressive. Traded Fold7 for this Fold8, getting use to the different size BUT plan on keeping this one for a long time. Screens appear mush sharper and the inside screen hasn't picked up any fingernail marks thus far like my Fold7 did. Lover the new dimensions. Highly recommend.

Missing parts, horrible customer service
THADDEUST Posted
Bought in "Used, Excellent Condition". Arrived missing screen protector and screen protector applicator tool. Customer service refused to send replacement screen protector and tool. Customer service refused giving partial refund for the item being falsely advertised as a condition it was not and missing items. Customer service just kept telling me to come into a store to return the entire phone case. I live two hours from the nearest Best Buy and cannot just go into a store. Avoid Best Buy like the plague. Products are falsely advertised, arrive missing parts and customer service is beyond terrible.

Too much for too little
EVANL Posted
For what you get, it is priced way too high compared to other cases. No front bumper or hinge protection at this price is egregious.

Had to return this case because it only protected one side if the phone, leaving the side of the phone unprotected.
