Will Z Fold 6 Cases Fit Z Fold 7?
In most cases, no. Due to the slight dimension and hinge redesign, older Z Fold 6 cases won’t fit the Z Fold 7 perfectly. Even a 0.2 mm difference can cause misalignment around the hinge and outer screen.
- Hinge Armor Cases: Misaligned hinge cover or incomplete closure.
- Slim & Clear Cases: Might press against camera bump or lift off edges.
- S-Pen Cases: Different slot position and pen size.
It’s always best to get a dedicated Z Fold 7 case for a perfect fit and proper hinge protection.
