Someone folded the Galaxy Z Fold 7 200,000 times: Here’s what broke

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-12-07 05:12:16

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR A Korean YouTuber manually folded the Galaxy Z Fold 7 200,000 times over five days to test its real-world durability. Samsung’s 500,000-fold durability claim for the inner screen seems plausible so far, but the test did produce some hardware issues. Notable issues included a reboot error (6,000–10,000 folds), hinge creaking (from 46,000 folds), liquid seepage (after 75,000 folds), and speaker failure (at 175,000 folds).

TL;DR A woman has been awarded the equivalent of $200,000 after her phone caused a house fire while charging. The court ruled the LG K8 was defective and failed to meet safety expectations. Most of the payout will go to her insurer, but she also received compensation for injuries.
