Tbh the fingernail leaving marks on the screen is a way bigger test failure than anything else. Wouldn't get a phone that got permanent marks in the screen like that even if it's more durable in other ways.
@@fasctic3922 any plastic screen ever will leave marks from fingernails. You have to actively try to leave marks though. Most people aren't going to be forcefully jamming their long fingernails into the screen
@@fasctic3922 Except you are never gonna press that hard on the screen with your fingernails and the small scratches actually heal. It's better to actually watch someone who has used one for a really long time to see how it does. For instance MrMobile (Michael Fischer) has done some long term reviews of the device (or similar devices), and he mentions how it holds up after some time.
@@Puddspanker surprisingly, most normal phones (at least flagships that were 4-800$+ through 2013 (earlier even)) all the way up to this time period still use glass
It's much stronger than I expected. Dirt-closing test gave me a little anxiety but I was surprised the softer foldable screen survived it in really good condition. Second time was bend test. It's promising that foldable screen survived pressing by fingers and streching by forced bending. It says a lot about it's potential behaviour in much less extreme conditions like normal, calm, everyday use.

Oleophobic coatings are to prevent oil from our fingers from leaving fingerprints on the surface of the glass. Hydrophobic coatings are used to prevent water and moisture from damaging electronic components.

I’ve never really understood the point of the burn test, even if I do sort of look forward to it, but I would like to see a submersion test, seeing as most phones are opting for waterproofing.
I decided to bite the bullet and buy one of these, I got it today, and just ran across your video while playing with it. It's VERY nice to see how well it stands up to your testing. You normally destroy phones in this test, and this is a folding phone. I'm impressed!
I'm not sure I see myself ever getting a Z Fold. That said, a Z Flip actually seems really nice, and I would consider getting one in the future when I can afford it. Hopefully they'll have improved the technology by then, too, but it seems they're getting it down pretty well with this third generation.
I've had the Z Flip for a week and a half now,and i love it! Pros: its really fun and a weird flex but okey. camera good also,mediocre.Feels heavy and premium . cons: battery life ( i knew that beforehand), some weird screen ratio for some apps. It's not the best phone for many,but if you are looking for something new,and stand out a bit,its really fun.
@@larrschrlo I'm getting mine next month and I cant wait, i wanted to know what the durability is like? I've dropped my note 9 once in the 3 years I've had it, and it must've been from about a 3ft height. Would the flip 3 survive that lol, I would obviously get a case on it aswell
Took Z Fold3 and sold my S21 Ultra, feel really satisfied with 7,6" inner display, deeper stereo sound and awesome selfies on main camera. Also S Pen support and IPX8 that I waited in Z Fold's since the first generation.
fold still kinda "test version" or "experimental" even if its the third generation, a safer choice if you really want a foldable smartphone is the Z flip 3
That must be a different country thing. I see so many comments about how phones are so expensive. I agree, if you buy them out right. I don't know of anyone who does that. Even when I worked at Best Buy, customers upgrade phones with their plans and just make payments. Very affordable that way.
@@TheDarkguide That sucks. It kind of mimics that here. I think some carriers allow you to go the leasing route where you're just upgrading every other year. But with the trade in option from most carriers, we're all kind of doing that anyways.
@@TheDarkguide found out 8 hours later that you were 8 hours late making a comment on a vid, that i made a comment on, 8 hours after posting. not bad LOL
A phone that has a hinge and a folding screen: *Survives the bend test* Thick, slab shaped gaming phones, and also iPads that are both solid pieces of hardware: *Snap when the littlest of force is applied*
My ipad pro has bent ever so slightly so the frame has a very small crease. I kept it in a case and a screen protector, but when your grandma sits on it, it doesn't last.
Rather than dropping a pile of dirt onto the phone, I'd prefer that the phone be dropped into dirt, to see if the impact forces any particles into the hinge
He is trying to see if the phone is enough resistant to water and dust, because since it has 2 screens its not fully resistant to them like a regular s21ultra lets say for example
I think Samsung might have played their cards rightly by having that inner camera under display. It won't interrupt the massive screen inside and people who want a better quality can either use the outer selfie camera or even the full fledged main setup, having the outer display as the viewfinder.
It actually makes so much sense to me, like on zoom etc who cares if it's not outstanding quality, it'll look the same after compression anyways. Actually a really smart choice as you'd use the other cameras snapping selfies anyways, but having that camera during calls will be sufficient imp
This is why I become an engineer. This is the exact same type of things I did as a child by tearing everything apart to see how it worked. Only difference is it wasn't brand-new out-of-the-box. Lol

@@YoungCarWiz Everything is overpriced. They make 200 sometimes 300 percent profit. An iPhone X costs around 400 dollars to make (Because it is made in China, to save money and to maximize profits), but Apple sells that phone at 999 dollars. They removed the headphone jack, so you buy their exspensive adapters that break easily. Apple also claimed that they will be helping the planet by not including the chargers in the boxes of the new iPhone 12, mainly because Apple users already have one. That is just an excuse so people have to buy it separately, causing more packaging, therefore nerfing the idea of saving the planet from trash. You have to look at Apple in a more broader perspective. Apple overprices because Apple users are going to buy it no matter what. If it is for flexing in school, or for reviews.

I thought these phones were a fad, but seeing one hold up to one of these durability tests changes my view completely. They are getting as strong as regular phones!
Yes Samsung has put a lot of effort into its build for sure , however , apparently the actual main glass display layer is the same as the earlier model , but with a different type of plastic on top of it , and iirc mr mobiles fold lasted 7 months before the display split down the crease , so it remains to be seen how the displays will hold up over time. It’s still hard to beat a conventional glass screen IMO.
agreed this was a brutal durability test... feel confident when i get it will not have trouble with a case on keeping it safe..no beach phone for sure but few are
Me: Gets a new phone Jerry: also gets a new phone Me: now I will take care of it for atleast 3 years Jerry: oh just got it so let's see how strong it is even though it's so expensive
I pre-ordered the fold 3. Screen real-estate alone with my corporate IT job was enough to overcome durability concerns. I have spent 24 hours with it and am mostly sold. I was so anxious and terrified fir this video to come out. Glad it mostly survived! Thanks Zach for all the great content, and thanks Cambry fir supporting the super need we admire. Can't wait for the next ev hummer video.
I genuinely think phone manufacturers uses jerry's sop to develop test cases, to specifically ensure a new phone release passes jerry's specific abuse scenarios
Samsung watching this be like: This guy again. First he destroyed our first folding phone, now our second, and now our this. Galaxy Fold 4 coming soon.
I bought my galaxy z fold 3 which I currently use, for 1,186$, not bad considering they are currently 1599 to 1899. I will say a reason it was so cheap was because there was light scratches on the front screen, and watching this video and seeing the front has a pre built screen protector that CAN come off, which I was told it couldn't, I got it off with just my fingers in 3 seconds and those scratches are all gone. So, thanks. Good video either way, I do believe this phone is built pretty well and durable, and this video does a good showcase of that. Especially considering draginf a knife and using a lighter is not something I plan on doing, but either way I have the s pen case for it. Although I'm pleased to know that when I draw with it, I'm not going to actually damage the screen, because I also thought the spring was pretty tough since it's supposed to help from pressing to hard.
Hey, one year later! Phone still works like new. However, I will the plastic screen protector on the inside folding screen, is removable if you do it gently. Which I did, after mine started comming off in the middle, and was gathering dust like crazy. I now have a new one there, since I use the s pen alot, but it is nice knowing, for about 20 bucks, you can replace any accidental scratches you make on the inside screen with fingernails or what not. Other than that, 3 years later, still 0 complaints of the phone. Fold 3 holds strong
Fantastic video. One question though: why do you not test dumping dust into the other side of the hinge? That's the part that I would be worried about, getting dust into the outer hinge and into the internals.
When he did this same thing with the first Fold it failed horribly. This is a good sign. Worst case, just submerge it in water and open and close it a few times
If anyone wanna test oleophobic coating, just buy a cheap smartphone tempered glass vs expensive one, You will see the difference. No fingerprints and water repellant,
@@hdwblade I saw in a Korean youtuber reviewing the Fold and he stated that folding the phone inside the water can't really ensure that it won't go in cuz IP ratings shouldn't be used for underwater usage of the phone itself. IP ratings are given after a test in a lab on standby mode.
I could just picture Samsung engineers huddled around a monitor watching your Durability Test and sighing with relief when their phone survives. Pretty sure one would shout out "In your face Jerry!" :D
@@user-ty5xy6cs9d I actually traded my Fold 2 for Fold 3 so I have been using a Fold since Fold 2 was released. Generally I am very pleased with Fold 2 and so far Fold 3 feels better than Fold 2. I had replace the inner screen protector of Fold 2 after first week and after ten months of daily use there is no significant scratch or deformity on the screen. Although I keep my fingernail short I do play games on my Fold quite regularly. So Folds are not as fragile as many thinks. But ultimately it depends on how you use your phone. Normally I'd only use the inner screen when I am doing something that's more convenient with larger screen like watching video, reading news or books, using map or some office apps, emails etc. For my lifestyle having a pocketable tablet is more useful than a durable phone.
Not sponsored. I've had anker stuff before and they legit have good products. Their portable battery packs are some of the best in the game no cap. They're my go-to for charging stuff.
As a Fold 3 owner as of last Thursday this was painful to watch the destruction of this beautiful expensive phone....especially the dirt dump on the inner screen. Lol
This was really impressive even though I'm not interested in folding phones but I have to admit Samsung is doing nice progress every time they come up with the new generation
@@Galax2000 you mean current glass... who knows what "glass" we will make in the future or even if it will be called glass anymore. I just hope I will be still alive by then😂
That’s barely the abuse it would see if you handed it to a young child. I looked over to see my friend’s kid chewing on my phone, before they dropped it.
@@williamreynolds6132 did u 360 no scope the child after, that was the best thing to do after a child bites on ur phone then throws it, happens every day to everyone and they all do the same thing :)
It honestly wouldn’t shock me that Samsung finds a way to make the inner screen scratch at 4 or 5, by then, I’d likely pick it up. Sure Is fun to see it evolve!
since the only area of the screen is actually folding, the rest of the screens could be covered in gorilla glass like a protector..but I suppose that would create some image distortion on the edges and the touch experience would be ruined

I'm not sure I see myself ever getting a Z Fold. That said, a Z Flip actually seems really nice, and I would consider getting one in the future when I can afford it. Hopefully they'll have improved the technology by then, too, but it seems they're getting it down pretty well with this third generation.
I've had the Z Flip for a week and a half now,and i love it! Pros: its really fun and a weird flex but okey. camera good also,mediocre.Feels heavy and premium . cons: battery life ( i knew that beforehand), some weird screen ratio for some apps. It's not the best phone for many,but if you are looking for something new,and stand out a bit,its really fun.
@@larrschrlo I'm getting mine next month and I cant wait, i wanted to know what the durability is like? I've dropped my note 9 once in the 3 years I've had it, and it must've been from about a 3ft height. Would the flip 3 survive that lol, I would obviously get a case on it aswell
Took Z Fold3 and sold my S21 Ultra, feel really satisfied with 7,6" inner display, deeper stereo sound and awesome selfies on main camera. Also S Pen support and IPX8 that I waited in Z Fold's since the first generation.
The Z Flip is cool, but has no actual useful benefits over a normal phone. The Z Fold actually gives something a regular phone can’t do.
fold still kinda "test version" or "experimental" even if its the third generation, a safer choice if you really want a foldable smartphone is the Z flip 3
Moving from iPhone 11 to Samsung flip 3. Best choice ever, however due to work purposes I still use the iPhone but my flip is the main device.

That must be a different country thing. I see so many comments about how phones are so expensive. I agree, if you buy them out right. I don't know of anyone who does that. Even when I worked at Best Buy, customers upgrade phones with their plans and just make payments. Very affordable that way.
@@Titansfan81 Yeah obviously we don't have that kind of options. We can just buy them outright or lease them from the shop through bank with interest.

5:33 the moment that my heart broke for 1st time
Rather than dropping a pile of dirt onto the phone, I'd prefer that the phone be dropped into dirt, to see if the impact forces any particles into the hinge
Logical
He is trying to see if the phone is enough resistant to water and dust, because since it has 2 screens its not fully resistant to them like a regular s21ultra lets say for example
Exactly, you usually drop the phone on dirt, not the other way around.
I think Samsung might have played their cards rightly by having that inner camera under display. It won't interrupt the massive screen inside and people who want a better quality can either use the outer selfie camera or even the full fledged main setup, having the outer display as the viewfinder.
It actually makes so much sense to me, like on zoom etc who cares if it's not outstanding quality, it'll look the same after compression anyways. Actually a really smart choice as you'd use the other cameras snapping selfies anyways, but having that camera during calls will be sufficient imp
The inner camera is the right one for video conference
Yet people still make a problem out of it

@@YoungCarWiz Everything is overpriced. They make 200 sometimes 300 percent profit. An iPhone X costs around 400 dollars to make (Because it is made in China, to save money and to maximize profits), but Apple sells that phone at 999 dollars. They removed the headphone jack, so you buy their exspensive adapters that break easily. Apple also claimed that they will be helping the planet by not including the chargers in the boxes of the new iPhone 12, mainly because Apple users already have one. That is just an excuse so people have to buy it separately, causing more packaging, therefore nerfing the idea of saving the planet from trash. You have to look at Apple in a more broader perspective. Apple overprices because Apple users are going to buy it no matter what. If it is for flexing in school, or for reviews.

I thought these phones were a fad, but seeing one hold up to one of these durability tests changes my view completely. They are getting as strong as regular phones!
Still though, I guess after just a couple of weeks I guess the screen would be, at the very least, filled with grooves.
Yes Samsung has put a lot of effort into its build for sure , however , apparently the actual main glass display layer is the same as the earlier model , but with a different type of plastic on top of it , and iirc mr mobiles fold lasted 7 months before the display split down the crease , so it remains to be seen how the displays will hold up over time.
It’s still hard to beat a conventional glass screen IMO.

I bought my galaxy z fold 3 which I currently use, for 1,186$, not bad considering they are currently 1599 to 1899. I will say a reason it was so cheap was because there was light scratches on the front screen, and watching this video and seeing the front has a pre built screen protector that CAN come off, which I was told it couldn't, I got it off with just my fingers in 3 seconds and those scratches are all gone. So, thanks. Good video either way, I do believe this phone is built pretty well and durable, and this video does a good showcase of that. Especially considering draginf a knife and using a lighter is not something I plan on doing, but either way I have the s pen case for it. Although I'm pleased to know that when I draw with it, I'm not going to actually damage the screen, because I also thought the spring was pretty tough since it's supposed to help from pressing to hard.
Hey, one year later! Phone still works like new. However, I will the plastic screen protector on the inside folding screen, is removable if you do it gently. Which I did, after mine started comming off in the middle, and was gathering dust like crazy. I now have a new one there, since I use the s pen alot, but it is nice knowing, for about 20 bucks, you can replace any accidental scratches you make on the inside screen with fingernails or what not. Other than that, 3 years later, still 0 complaints of the phone. Fold 3 holds strong
Fantastic video. One question though: why do you not test dumping dust into the other side of the hinge? That's the part that I would be worried about, getting dust into the outer hinge and into the internals.
When he did this same thing with the first Fold it failed horribly. This is a good sign. Worst case, just submerge it in water and open and close it a few times
If anyone wanna test oleophobic coating, just buy a cheap smartphone tempered glass vs expensive one, You will see the difference. No fingerprints and water repellant,
Yeah mostly phone will fall down from the back side (the hinge). . Right?

@@user-ty5xy6cs9d I actually traded my Fold 2 for Fold 3 so I have been using a Fold since Fold 2 was released. Generally I am very pleased with Fold 2 and so far Fold 3 feels better than Fold 2. I had replace the inner screen protector of Fold 2 after first week and after ten months of daily use there is no significant scratch or deformity on the screen. Although I keep my fingernail short I do play games on my Fold quite regularly. So Folds are not as fragile as many thinks. But ultimately it depends on how you use your phone. Normally I'd only use the inner screen when I am doing something that's more convenient with larger screen like watching video, reading news or books, using map or some office apps, emails etc. For my lifestyle having a pocketable tablet is more useful than a durable phone.
