What Happens When You Fold and Unfold the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 200,000 Times?
SOUTH KOREA, AUG 6 – A South Korean YouTuber folded the Galaxy Z Fold 7 200,000 times live, confirming it can simulate over five years of daily use despite minor issues like speaker failure at 175,000 folds.
- A South Korean YouTuber folded and unfolded the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 by hand 200,001 times on a live stream to test its durability.
- Samsung claimed that the foldable OLED screen is durable enough to endure up to half a million bends, but during testing by a YouTuber, the phone showed problems such as hinge noises and a liquid leak after numerous folds.
- Key events included hinge creaking starting at 46,000 folds, a black liquid leak at 75,000 folds, a deepened crease at 105,000 folds, and speaker failure at 175,000 folds.
- The phone rebooted every 6,000 to 10,000 folds, and despite these issues, the inner screen showed no dead pixels and kept touch response after 200,000 folds.
- The test suggests the Galaxy Z Fold 7 can endure thousands of folding cycles over years, though some hardware failures indicate durability concerns remain for long-term use.
