I received this too. Great protection but it does add a lot of bulk. The hinge protector could have been smaller for the model minus the stylus. Also the hinge protector does seem to move ever so slightly. The screen protector is a fingerprint magnet!!! Touch sensitivity is good though however if you like using gestures swiping can be hindered due to the thicker raised bezels. I also noticed dust particles accumulating through the front camera hole in the screen protector and getting trapped underneath it. Not very ergonomic to hold and i found it wasnt as enjoyable using the device beacuse of the bulk. It's a shame the kickstand only real works in one orientation too. It does what it does. Armour plating for the phone but for me the disadvantages outweigh the benefits. Hopefully some more case makers will take note. Great review as always.
I agree the hinge protection could have been thinner. Weirdly enough I liked the thin hinge on the Libeagle case. Even the hinge protection on the DBrand case for the Pixel Fold is thinner and it also serves as a Kickstand so it possible to make it thinner if Poetic wanted to. I actually removed the screen protector from the front of the case since I already have a screen protector on the device. Thanks for watching.
I picked this up from Amazon as well. Adds significant bulk to the Open, however that doesn't bother me too much. The hinge protection makes its challenging to find a car mount that will handle its thickness when the Open is open. Thanks for the video!!
That hinge guard is massive, without the stylus I don't see why it has to be that huge. I bought the libeagle from your last reveiw and love it. I did notice going back on some apps is touchy but I'd rather have that over adding a quarter inch to my device.
Just ordered my OnePlus Open on the Memorial Day special with trade in and this case is nice. Hard to decide after watching both of your videos....The Libeagle case is thinner but this one has that protection and stylus storage. I emailed Dbrand and hope they respond... Great review.
@@jerzyghost72 Thanks for reaching out. While it's a neat folding phone, we currently have no plans to offer cases for the OnePlus Open. Unfortunately, we haven't seen enough demand to justify adding it to our portfolio at this time. Sorry about that. Let us know if there's anything else we can help with and have a great day! Signed, A Robot Not seen enough demand? Guess they don't see RUclips videos 🤷♂️
@@pedallinwithparedes thanks. I think they only feel it's worth going with the bigger companies like google and Samsung. It's funny because they were so quick to make a case for the steam deck that's made by steam but no case for the Lenovo legion go and Lenovo is a huge company.
@@SpecTechularGadgets This was their response 😒🤷♂️ Thanks for reaching out. While it's a neat folding phone, we currently have no plans to offer cases for the OnePlus Open.

Spigen is ALWAYS my Go-To Case manufacturer for my Z Folds! I'm sure they offer something for the oneplus open! I haven't looked because I only review Samsung Galaxy Devices, but you could try them!
@@SpecTechularGadgets No problem! Thank you for your case reviews. I went for the Nillkin case blue, bought both the phone and case yesterday. Can't wait to test it out! Are you still satisfied with your OP Open?
Greetings from France and thank you very much for your videos! Getting a good case for the Oneplus Open seems to be a very difficult mission. I've found a case that looks particularly interesting. It protects the hinge and doesn't have an integrated protective glass, which might interest a lot of people. Finally, the case has a kickstand to hold the phone, which also has the secondary function of protecting the camera. What do you think? Would you consider making a video test of this case? Thanks 😊 Case name : NILLKIN SUPER FROSTED SHIELD PROP
case developed a squeaky hinge and felt cheap overall for the price. returned it and got the nillkin case that was lower priced and feels more premium than the Poetic case. my hands arent so big that i need the bulk the poetic adds to the phone
That honestly the case I am currently using is the Nilkin case. I didn’t have issues with the hinge like you did on the Poetic case, it’s just that the Poetic brings more bulk to the device because it’s heavy duty and wanted a more slimmer experience for a case so the Nilkin does that. Thanks for watching.
Sorry you had a bad experience with the case. I would definitely reach out to Poetic if I were you to request a replacement or a refund. Thanks for watching.
Nah this is the one for me. As a working man i need that beefy case. Had a unicorn subcase for my folds now that i have this one its hard to find a good case
Thank you for reviewing this. I've been waiting to pull the trigger on the stylus version.
How do you like the stylus? I was thinking of getting it but I haven't really been sold on it. Thanks for watching.

@@SpecTechularGadgets I went back to my libeagle based on your original recommendation. I still think it's the nicest case to use.
I speak from hinge damage experience, you need hinge protection with this phone. But my god that hinge protector is ridiculous. 😂
Great video. I wish they made the hinge thin like the black casw you showed in the beginning.
Yes that would be ideal and welcomed by most of us. Hopefully in the future Poetic will consider this modification. Thanks for watching.
Thank you so much showing this case.I couldn’t find anything. Just got the case. This is not a cheap case feels premium. God bless
I am glad this video helped you make a decision on a great case for the Oneplus Open. Thanks for watching.
That looks great!
I'm just happy to have a good case for the OnePlus Open. Thanks for watching.

This one thing I didn't test out, was the car mount, which that can be challenging to find one that will support this size case. Thanks for watching.

I agree, it would have been better if the hinge was a bit smaller. Thanks for watching.

Hi, a lot of people are saying that the kickstand was broken Already when the case was delivered. Did you have any problems with the stand?
Hi. I haven't had any problems with the kickstand so far. It's still working properly. Thanks for the question and thanks for watching.
@@SpecTechularGadgets No problem! Thank you for your case reviews. I went for the Nillkin case blue, bought both the phone and case yesterday. Can't wait to test it out! Are you still satisfied with your OP Open?
Is the kickstand magnetic ? Over time these parts get loser and loser and become floppy
No. The kickstand is not magnetic. Thanks for watching.
Fam, that case is fire
Thanks fam.
Good case. A tad too thick but still nice.
Thanks for watching.
great for protection but its too bulky for me
Yes, it definitely will add bulk to the device. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching.
I honestly wouldn't use it even if it was offered for free. That hinge protection looks ugly af.
Ouch! Tell us how you really feel. Lol. I get it, this case is definitely not for everyone. Thanks for watching.
Pathetic quality, the kickstand broker after 2 uses don't buy
Sorry you had a bad experience with the case. I would definitely reach out to Poetic if I were you to request a replacement or a refund. Thanks for watching.
Nah, looks like shit. Ruins the beautiful phone aesthetics. But thanks for the video!
Lol! Its definitely not for every one. Thanks for watching!
Nah this is the one for me.
As a working man i need that beefy case.
Had a unicorn subcase for my folds now that i have this one its hard to find a good case
