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

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-12-02 17:12:16

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).

Anticipation is high for the launch of the next iPhone, and so are expectations. Rumors have been swirling for months about the upcoming lineup, which most notably may include a thinner model dubbed the iPhone 17 Air.

This update only applies to the Verizon model for now, though. Samsung’s 2020 flagship launched with the promise of four major OS upgrades and five years of security updates.

Teardown confirms Galaxy Z Fold 7 is a repair nightmare, but maybe that’s the point

TL;DR iFixit gives the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 a pitiful repair score in its latest teardown. Fragile inner components, glued batteries, and a hard-to-replace screen make DIY fixes tough. It could be that the same design choices may help the phone survive extreme durability tests.

This addresses a major pain point, as Samsung’s default navigation layout is the reverse of stock Android’s, forcing users to retrain their muscle memory. Evidence of the unreleased feature was found in an Android Canary build, but it will likely not launch until a future Android 16 quarterly

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-12-07 18:00:03

Ever since foldable phones first appeared, I’ve had a complicated relationship with them. I wanted to love the concept from the very beginning, and I truly tried, but I could never get past how unwieldy they were. If you’ll remember, early foldables were comically thick, essentially feeling like two regular phones stacked on top of each other. Over the years, manufacturers have been on a mission to slim them down. Now, with the launch of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7, we’ve reached a significant
