The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 and Z Fold 3 are fantastic folding phones that have an IPX8 water-resistant rating and lower price than years past. These two phones are still very expensive and deserve some protection, especially when you manipulate them with a folding or flipping action to use their inner main displays.
Speck is one of my favorite case makers, primarily due to most of its cases offering 13-foot drop test certification and an enhanced tactile feel of the phone. Its latest case offerings, the Speck Presidio Perfect Clear Fold[1] for the Z Flip 3 and Presidio Perfect Clear Fold[2] for the Z Fold 3 are clear, one-piece, protective cases that provide drop protection for up to 13-feet. I expect most people may drop their phone from the three to four feet range, but it's nice to know there is a margin for corner and back protection.

Both cases have similar design elements so we'll cover the common features first. The Z Flip 3 case is priced at $59.95 and the Z Fold 3 case at $64.95. This makes sense given that the Z Fold 3 case is larger than the Z Flip 3 case, but the amount of material on the case is about the same since the Z Fold 3 front portion is mainly just a minimal frame to cover the large display.
The cases are available only in clear and Speck's Perfect-Clear coating is designed to resist yellowing and discoloration. If you happen to have one of the new Samsung foldables in a different color then you may want to show off that color so it's great to see these Speck cases support that desire.
