I've been using the Galaxy Z Fold 8 for two weeks - these two accessories perfect the experience
With the Galaxy Z Fold 8 as my main driver, these two accessories are must-haves (and one isn't even made by Samsung).
For two weeks, I have been using the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, and two accessories have greatly enhanced the experience. The first accessory is Samsung's carbon fiber case, which adds a magnetic charging ring to the back of the phone, making it compatible with MagSafe and other wireless charging solutions. Despite the case being slightly less grippy than desired, the Snap Ring accessory proves to be a delightful surprise.
Originally designed for Google's Pixel Snap, the Snap Ring attaches to the back of the Z Fold 8 and serves as a magnetic stand, providing a firm grip for the phone. This accessory eliminates the wobbling issue that arises when the phone is placed on a flat surface without the Snap Ring, ensuring a stable and flat position for the tablet-like display.
The Snap Ring also allows for wireless charging with MagSafe-compatible accessories, such as wallets and batteries. While Samsung did offer carbon fiber cases with built-in kickstands, the Snap Ring proves to be the perfect accessory tailored for the Z Fold 8, enhancing its usability and versatility.
