Anyone know if Samsung will be offering the Wallet Case for the S25 series.

Hello 👋 @SeanCurtis007 and may I take this opportunity to extend a Warm Welcome to the Samsung Community Forum.

I'm sure Samsung will endeavour to provide as many different styles of accessories and other accessories for their new phone's as possible.

There's so many good quality Manufacturers of accessories nowadays that I'm sure you'll manage to find some suitable for your needs @SeanCurtis007

There will be YouTube reviews and opportunities to get hands on at Highstreet Stores.

Enjoy the journey ✨️

I hope so, I've been buying them for years, so much better than a regular case, the card slot and screen protection is essential

None of the 3rd party options are comparable in quality to the Samsung options that were available for the S24 and older models

I too, am disappointed there is no wallet style case like the Smart View Wallet from previous models.

I am hoping something better comes out later (from Samsung or someone else) but to provide protection in the meantime, I have purchased an Otterbox React Folio which has a magnetic catch (instead of a strap and popper like some on Amazon), has been drop tested to military standards (which should provide some protection), can wirelessly charge and feels comfortable in the hand. It arrived today and seems good quality for the money. Never had a clear back before but as I've ordered the Titanium Black, hopefully this should help show off the phones colour. Not a fan of the Otterbox's camera cut out design (but most 3rd parties seem to have gone down this route) but this case was the best I could find to meet my immediate needs as my phone is due to be delivered (or dispatched - can't remember which) on 1 Feb.

My s25 does nearly fit the s24 case but not 100% like you I hope they bring one out they are the best cases for a samsu g

I understand from another thread that the S25 series doesn't have the facility to turn on the screen and switch it off on opening and closing the case although some believe that could be addressed by a firmware update. So, even if Samsung introduced a wallet style case, this may not function the same as previous cases.

I've been using the Otterbox React Folio for a few days now and while it is fine, its not quite right for me. The worse thing is finger-marks on the clear back. While I have with previous Samsung phones, got away with only cleaning the screen (or just using a tissue or something) every few days or so, now I have to use screen cleaner daily to clean the back (so do the screen at the same time). A bit of a pain. Case is good value for the money otherwise and certainly feels well made and gives the feel the phone is protected.

Well, if we check what Samsung offered so far for the flagship phones: I got a nice wallet case for my S10 ultra with a possibility when it was closed to see the clock highlighted with large numbers in LED on the surface of the case and been able to pick up phone without opening the case and also to cancel alarmclock check messages etc,
S20 ultra already had nothing such option just a dark case cover to watch

S23 Ultra similar to S20, just had a small window on it to see the clock and can have some feature also there. but nothing with the case

S25 ultra maybe won't have any wallet cover at all 😞

Just wanted to note for Samsung's awareness, I have been using the wallet clear view covers on every flagship, note, and ultra going back to the s6 era.

I am aware that this generation is cutting things that they feel people were not using. But if they cut the sensor to auto off and on the screen as another user suggested and are not supplying a wallet cover this will be the first generation I have no interest in.

I don't find it credible that Samsung can claim that this style of cover wasn't being used...

Anyway. I hope the hardware is included and we are just waiting for the cover to be released 🤞

Hello everyone, the same for me: I'm using a Samsung Wallet Case since the first Day I moved to Samsung Phones. I already bought 4 cases of various brands but none is working for me. Every time I pick up my device, I feel "not confortable".

Buying a wallet case from another Brand? my device will not switch on and off when opening or closing, so this is not a real option. I feel sad about it. Can't believe Samsung could do this 😟😭

If any reader has a solution that works, I would be so gratefull.

While I don't disagree with any of the comments made so far on this thread, if the one/off function by opening and closing the cover is missing, I personally don't feel this is a deal-breaker. Yes, when you open your third party case, you have to tap the on/off button on the side of the phone to turn on the screen, but if you just close the case as you would with a previous version of the phone, the screen will time-out after a few seconds (if you haven't amended this setting). So, the only real issue for me, is tapping the on/off button to turn on the screen. As I said, not a deal breaker for me but I wish, like others, Samsung made a wallet style case similar to previous versions as this would be a much better solution.

I carefully cut our the area around the buttons on my old s24 case. . Just made it easier to use the side buttons. Works great.
One other cover I bought gave a dead area to the spen ( finger fine )

Hello and thank you for sharing your experience. Does the screen turn off and on automatically when opening and closing the wallet case?

Re: Re: Re: Re: Wallet Case s25 Ultra.

Steveman1 — Thu, 13 Feb 2025 10:39:50 GMT

Sadly no. Firmware not there. But the screen is protected.

I bought a smart view case from amazon for my s25 ultra which turns the phone off when closing and brings the clock in briefly in the cut out on the case, you do need to download the software for this to work, It probably uses a little battery but I'll put up with that in the meantime. The quality looks and feels like a genuine Samsung case I had on my s21 ultra.

Thanks for finding this option. Since the phone times-out if unused, it doesn't really matter if the phone switches off when the case is closed (although it does help) as it switches off anyway after a short time. What matters more is whether the phone switches on when the case opens as at present, you have to press the switch on the side? Does the software download do this? Thank you
