Hey I'm browsing for a new case and overheard someone saying magnets make the stylus pen give blind spots -i.e. not working properly anymore.

can someone confirm this?

I was looking for a flip cover case where a soft back cover can be magnetically enclosed in the book case.
but want to make sure this will not give issues

something similar to the attached picture

don't have your phone, but i have been with the note series up until the note 10+ and have used the s-pen with flip cases or magnetic kickstand built into the case with no issues. so unless the new s-pen is more sensitive, i think you should be fine.
 
Thanks! I guess it depends on which case then though. I just heard from someone that makes cases on Etsy that he stopped making cases with magnets just because of this reason. I don't think it's the pen that has issues from what I heard its the screen that doesn't like magnets.

I'm hoping someone with the s22 ultra has experience with cases like this.
 
well on my z fold 3........the sides of the hinge protection on my case are magnetic and i have no issues with both screens......but yes magnets near any phone screen will mess the screen up.
 
i have the s22 ultra 1tb. i dont use a case like yours but maganets will affect it. id go a different route and use a case without magnets. if you feel you must use this type of case, purchase form a vendor who as an easy returns process.
 
Thanks marctronixx.
I will find another option.

anyone - Please send a reply to this thread if you find a leather case which is similar in use but doesn't use magnets
 
You "may" me OK if the case has a magnet provided the magnet in in the cover flap and you leave it open like a book. What I mean is that you don't fold the flap all the way around so the magnet is in contact with the back of the phone.
