Official Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra Smart View Flip Case Wallet Cover – Black

Smart View Window

Full Phone Access Without Opening

The Smart View window is a clear transparent panel positioned over a defined area of the phone’s AMOLED display. When the cover is closed, the S23 Ultra detects the case via its Hall sensor and activates a dedicated Smart View UI that mirrors a portion of the full display through the window. The Smart View interface shows the time, date and notification icons at a glance, and expands to show incoming call information, playback controls, alarm details and other contextual information as events occur. Tapping the window registers as a touch input on the underlying display — the cover material is thin enough to register capacitive touch, allowing the user to answer calls with a single tap on the window, dismiss alarms, or control music playback without opening the case or activating the full display. For users who manage their phone primarily by sound and notification — calls, music, alarms — Smart View mode reduces the number of times the cover needs to be opened throughout the day, which also reduces wear on the hinge and magnetic closure. The window size and position are designed specifically for the S23 Ultra’s screen dimensions and aspect ratio.

One Pocket for Phone and Card

The card slot on the inner face of the front cover holds one standard payment card, ID card or travel card. The slot is positioned so the card sits against the back of the phone when the cover is closed, which keeps the case’s profile slim — the combined thickness of the case, phone and card is only marginally greater than the case and phone alone. Contactless payment via the card works by opening the cover and presenting the inner face of the cover to the reader — the card slot is accessible without removing the card. The case provides full front and rear coverage: the rear panel protects the back of the phone and the camera module surround, while the front cover protects the display from direct impacts and scratches when the phone is placed face-down on a surface. Samsung’s official fit means all hardware cutouts — USB-C port, speakers, microphones, side buttons, and the S Pen slot and ejector — are precisely positioned and correctly sized, without the over-cutting or misalignment that can occur on third-party cases manufactured to general S23 Ultra dimensions. Wireless charging is not blocked by the case back and functions normally through it.

Recycled Materials · Official Samsung

Samsung Galaxy for the Planet

The EF-ZS918 is manufactured using UL-certified recycled and bio materials as part of Samsung’s Galaxy for the Planet initiative, which commits to incorporating recycled materials across Samsung’s mobile accessories portfolio. UL certification is an independent verification standard — the materials used carry UL’s Environmental Claim Validation (ECV) for recycled content, meaning the recycled content claims on the case have been independently verified rather than self-declared. The bio materials component refers to plant-derived material substituting a portion of the conventional plastic in the case body. The finish and construction quality of the EF-ZS918 is consistent with Samsung’s other official Galaxy cases — the surface texture resists fingerprints and minor scuffs, the hinge mechanism provides firm resistance through its range of motion and holds the cover in the open position without drooping, and the magnetic closure engages with sufficient force to prevent the cover from opening in a bag or pocket while releasing easily with one-handed operation. The case is Samsung’s own design — not licensed to third parties — and uses colour and finish specifications developed alongside the S23 Ultra industrial design team.

Right choice if you…

✔ Own a Galaxy S23 Ultra and want Samsung’s official flip case — guaranteed fit, certified compatibility, correct cutouts
✔ Want to manage calls, music and notifications without opening the case — Smart View tap control covers daily phone use
✔ Want to carry one card with your phone — card slot eliminates a separate card holder for daily carry
✔ Want full front and rear protection — the flip cover protects the display, not just the back

Consider something else if…

✖ You own a Galaxy S23 or S23+ — this case fits only the S23 Ultra (SM-S918); the S23 and S23+ use different case models
✖ You want a slim back cover without a front flap — see Samsung’s Silicone Cover or Clear Case for the S23 Ultra
✖ You need to carry multiple cards — the card slot holds one card only

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this case fit the Galaxy S23 or S23+?

No. The EF-ZS918 is precision-designed for the Galaxy S23 Ultra (SM-S918) only. The S23 Ultra has different dimensions and a different S Pen slot compared to the S23 and S23+. The S23 uses EF-ZS911 and the S23+ uses EF-ZS916 — these are different products. Always verify the model number before purchasing a Samsung official case.

Does the S Pen still work with this case on?

Yes. The EF-ZS918 is designed with a cutout for the S Pen slot and ejector on the S23 Ultra — the S Pen can be inserted and ejected normally with the case fitted. Samsung’s official cases are tested for full S Pen compatibility, including the ejection mechanism clearance and the magnetic re-seating of the S Pen tip in the slot.

Does the magnetic closure affect the card in the card slot?

Standard contactless bank cards and ID cards are not affected by the case’s magnetic closure at normal everyday use distances. The magnet used for the cover closure is a small permanent magnet positioned at the edge of the cover — it is not strong enough to cause data corruption on standard chip-and-pin cards at the distances involved in normal carrying. Cards with older magnetic stripe data rather than chip technology are more susceptible to magnetic exposure, but the field from the closure magnet at the card’s position in the slot is within safe limits for standard cards.

Does wireless charging still work with this case?

Yes. The case back does not block wireless charging — the S23 Ultra charges normally on a Qi wireless pad with the case fitted. The case material is thin enough that the wireless charging coils in the phone and charger maintain sufficient coupling for normal charging speeds. Samsung 45W wired charging and Samsung Wireless Fast Charging are both compatible with this case.
