@@anthonyvallejo2657 I have it and it’s pretty good, but it depends on how many times u use ur phone, if you use ur phone a lot then the phone crease would show more
Exactly, I haven't had a problem at all because I make sure my phone is safely handled! I haven't dropped it yet and I don't anything crazy with it. I almost fick up one time by leaving it open while it was on my bed. I mess around the rolled on it and I remembered hearing a crunch sound 😭. Ever since then I keep my phone close lol.
I'm typing on 1 right now lol, anyways the reason because of this is because u slam the phone closed, in a result of this the hinges can break, also the middle could crease
Just wanna ask regarding the crease, so, if we close it slowly, there will be no crease? I'm planning to buy one, I mean, I love flip phones bug I just don't wanna end up having to fix the screen after few months using it
@@hitoritabi9966just buy flip 5 or flip 6 because these phone have no gap between the hinge. Flip 4,3,2,1 have a big gap between the hinge so if you use too much force to fold, the hinge can be broken.
@@nexnexnexnexnex just look at the past 10 years. Broken fridges, dying SSD, swelling batteries, exploding smartphones. Qualcomm, Nvidia ditched Samsung foundry low yield. We haven't talked about their software. The list goes on and on. My OnePlus 8T has green lines, by Samsung display.
Yup just what I wrote I've had them all and never broken either one. People are hard on these phones flipping it open hard like their doing a durability test then when it breaks they make a video saying wow it broke I don't know how.
it’s either a drop, OR more likely, something slid into the hinge gap preventing it from opening all the way. I recommend a holster case, so that it doesn’t collect debris from ur pocket. smokers who carry packs of smokes know, tobacco particles collect in ur pocket, and YES it builds up in the hinge, it’s perfectly small flat particles that very easily make their way in.
Hey your right. My hinge started having issues opening it after less 2 weeks , and it was in case from day one. My continued to get worse. They changed the hinge design on the 4. I talked to Samsung, they are aware of the issue. They sent me to a Samsung repair center. Fixed it in a day for free. The Tech, said he has gotten dozens warranty claims , from the hinge issue. He said he's been getting about 1 or 2 a week since September. Call Samsung Customer support if it gets worse. What I'm told is the hinges are getting misaligned . It's a design issue with the new change in hinge design from the 3.
That is going to destroy the screen. Flip 4 has two brackets on the middle of the screen if the phone falls they may get out of their place you just have to put them back in but whatever you do don't force it open mine opened only 3cm and I fixed it buy closing it and applying pressure from the speaker and hinge
@@macadelic2492idk about that, mine fell less than a hour ago and now one half is slanted, idk if the hinge broke because you said it can withstand alot but by the looks of it part of the hinge looks chipped off
@@macadelic2492 I tried doing that and my screen broke as if something has punctured it from the back, thankfully I had Samsung Care + so the fix wasn’t too expensive
Stuff does happen sometimes to people but people go on the internet and announce their issue like it's everyone's phone. I'm opening mine today and feel free to ask me in a couple months how it goes. I've heard enough people enjoying theirs. My friends talked me into it cuz they live theirs
Update. My phone is still holding up awesome. Only complaint (it's just the hardware so not really a warning unless you blindly buy it) it's no gaming phone so it WILL heat up. If your not a phone gamer it's perfect. Like most phones you shouldn't leave it running nonstop or it will slow down until you turn it off for a couple minutes and that is like twice a month for me. Had the same issue with my Sante fe samsung
Same thing here....very small drop on a carpeted floor. if it does happen to you do not open the phone all the way it will damage your phone.... remove the hinges first ( it is cheaper to change the hinges... way expansive to change the screen if damaged.)
U can take it to Samsung Care Service Center to fix that freaking hinge issue. If u enrolled on their 12-months maintenance program, u can have it fixed by them for free or they would even replace ur Z Flip 4 unit with a brand new one. That's why it's very important to spend a little more for that maintenance program.
That's happening to me. Mine is stuck at a 90 degree angle. I can close it but I can't open it all the way and everytime I close it it feels like it gets worse
Did it fall ? The screen got out of the small bracket in the middle don't try to open it buy force you will destroy the screen how I fixed it myself was apply preasure on the sides while the phone is shot more on the hinge but recommended only if you don't have insurance 😉
@@redflagy8 I had the insurance so I tried to open it by force (it was stuck at a similar angle to the video), basically what happened was that the screen got punctured from the back and pixels died in the middle, the hinge seems much weaker than the z flip 3’s, that one had even worse and multiple falls and the hinge survived just fine, the flip 4 couldn’t even survive a single smaller drop
I just got my phone back after having to get the hinge repaired. The phone even blacked out from the hinge up. Now I have it back and it won't charge past 85%.
My phone is 1 and a half years old it is a flip 4 from samsung and it has absolutely no issues only thing is that within every six months you have to change the screen protector
Ok I know it's been a while since you made this video I hope you see this, a month ago one of my colleagues dropped my flip 4 on the ground it was the first drop I have it since they were available in Germany, I didn't want to give it to the repair store since it was a super new phone I didn't had backup also it was Friday night (that means weekend without a phone). Buy the way mine couldn't open like past 5cm, so the solution shot the phone fully and apply pressure from the sides on the end of the hinge where the screen starts we do have a plastic/metallic (idk tbh) little tip the screen gets off the rails preventing it to fully open don't put big force you will hear a smal snap sound it's an expensive device (for me at least) push a bit check if worked if not repeat. It's been a month no issues at all but please do this if you don't have the insurance as for now they will handle it better 😉 😊
yeah I dropped it on the hinge and something moved out of place inside the hinge so every time I tried to open the phone it would put pressure on the screen
Happened to me too after dropping it the first time the small brackets on the end of the folding screen got under the screen itself they could make it tighter I guess because now I am treating it like a glass phone...
Uh so what causes ut is when it gets hit on the hinge my z flip 4 broke because of it so know i have the z flip 5 there is 1 way to fux it go to a phone repair store
@@Cristian30883 true thats even how mine broke i dropped it and the fixing place said no so there really isn't a way to fix it other then changing the case color but the thing id each color is a different to the front scree that's why I couldn't get it fixed I hope you did
go to the blacksmith , will be quick . What u want to expect when u buy a pliable and start to abuse them , open close open close all day ... I have flip 3 since launch and it has never had a problem, they are thinner phones than normal ones
I have to say that this is one of the strong points of this phone so maybe it's a one-off I'll be interested to hear what actually happened if you can report back.
Bro I have had my galaxy flip4 for almost a month now and it doesn't have that problem.I don't know if it is only with the American one's because I bought mine in south africa
I got mine in Germany this happened to me after its first fall most likely this person dropped it or in the shop while it still was in the box. Basically one of the two brackets we have in the middle of the screen when the hinge connects with the screen snap out and make it unable to open
You most likely applied pressure while it was closed the screen has one bracket on each side of the screen in the middle I fixed mine alone and all I did push on all sides until the screen goes back if you put your fingers on the speaker and on the hinge and apply pressure there is a big chance it snaps back into place
Hello! What care do you give him, did you have any problems? Did you have to change your screen saver? They gave me a zflip 4 and I would like care advice... Greetings from Argentina ❤
@New change unlisted_viewer Actually, there is 1,495 stores in the U.S. It's on Samsung shop finder. That works out on average 29 samsung stores to every state.
Hey I saw it's been a month hope you enjoy your flip 😊 I had the same issue as the person on the video not long ago and my screen didn't open more than a few centimeters it happened because of a drop now they could drop it themselves or a staff member of the shop I wrote a comment on how to fix it without insurance but it's a tricky device and for sure you have to be careful with it, hope you have a nice day
Ive had mines for almost 4 months and theres no issues. I have a case and dropped it a couple of times and yet, nothing serious happend. Whatever you did it was maybe beyond it or you were just unlucky
If you don't tend to drop phones it should be fine. If you drop this phone on its hinge then you should get it checked. It survives front and back smashes well tho
Ive had mine for 3 weeks and looked after it and never dropped it and its worse than that and only opens half way now. Sent it off to fix or replace. And the retailer said its a common fault.
I have this phone for 2 months now. my ultra wide camera is broken and I have the rainbow effect in the middle of the screen. please if you see this commend and planning to buy this phone, please don't do it, just buy an iPhone 14 pro its a way better deal for this price.
Me and about 3 friends and 4 family members got the z flip 4 on launch day and non of us have a single problem with it. Guaranteed you did something to it. 😑 if you think you did not, you might of been opening or closing in a snap fashion which is a big no! Look up how to care for something before you buy!
Nahh there's just people put there that just really wNt to hate on the phone I've had mine for a whil u probably hit ur hinge on something or just dropd it butine is really good
Its not fake.I found the same problem with my flip3. I think this problem has moved to flip 4 .Had to break the screen on my flip3 before I got to the hinges. The problem is in the anthers. Inside the hinges there are laces / ropes that collect dust and protect against dust falling into the mechanisms. When your phone falls, this lace falls out of the seat. And I think that you it is not necessary to drop it, it will be enough to quickly close it with a click or make any sudden movements. I think this is the same problem for all Samsung folding phones
Actually no it's not the hinge it's the small braket on the end of the folding screen it's not that tight the screen after my first fall went over the braket not letting me fully open it the hinge works perfectly but still its design error
until today, I had the exact same problem. Dirt accumulates under the hinge over time, which is why it can no longer be opened properly. The solution is to hold the phone under warm water (yes, it's actually waterproof), then open and close it several times. This will rinse the dirt out of the device, and it will open normally again.
I have my z flip 3 now 1 year, i have since 2 months the same problem and my display has scratches in the middle But those problems don't disturb me🤷♂️
These idiots over here blaming Samsung for them not taking good care of their devices. I bought one for my mom and another for my 11-year-old niece, no issues with theirs and I got it for them the day it launched! If an 11-year-old hasn't broken hers, then what's the excuse for this adult? 🙄
Not 100% the same problem, but my fold 3 is just Opening 90-95%. After I went to a samsung Service Point they informed me that this is normal for a folding device after 1 year of using. Would never believe in Samsung again after such a shame for 1.900€.
That is very bs I don't know about the 3 but in the 4 next to the middle we have a small bracket that is holding the screen and for some reason it's not very tight mine with the first drop got under the screen and I fixed it myself my phone opened only 3cm, the hinges are different but for sure samsung wouldn't put a hinge that lasts only a year what are they iphone batteries ?

It probably has dust in the hinge. Since this phone does not have any dust resistance, you have to be careful around dirty places and sandy areas.

dropped mine after 4 week. it landed on the hing and is the same. won't open properly. not happy. it's a brittle phone.
Yes it is a fragile phone
That means you need to change the hinge! Good job samsung for taking our money!:)
Actually no it's not the hinge it's the small braket on the end of the folding screen it's not that tight the screen after my first fall went over the braket not letting me fully open it the hinge works perfectly but still its design error
until today, I had the exact same problem. Dirt accumulates under the hinge over time, which is why it can no longer be opened properly. The solution is to hold the phone under warm water (yes, it's actually waterproof), then open and close it several times. This will rinse the dirt out of the device, and it will open normally again.
Thats a good tip thanks
I have my z flip 3 now 1 year, i have since 2 months the same problem and my display has scratches in the middle
But those problems don't disturb me🤷♂️
Soon your display will get damaged as same happened to me in fold 2
I belive you need to subscribe to open the phone all the way out!
it looks like something went in between and stops it from opening fully.
Did you even remove the plastic protection film over the hinge?
Yes, after i remove the plastic protection film over the hinge, my phone look like thatt 😢
To the people who own any samsung flip, DONT flip it open witj force or fast just open it
These idiots over here blaming Samsung for them not taking good care of their devices. I bought one for my mom and another for my 11-year-old niece, no issues with theirs and I got it for them the day it launched! If an 11-year-old hasn't broken hers, then what's the excuse for this adult? 🙄
😂 too Expensive phone for a 11 years old
@Mik - Nope, it teaches them responsibility!
I've had it for over a year now it's fine
I don't get what the point of adding a point of failure to a phone and making the price possibly over 1000
Not 100% the same problem, but my fold 3 is just Opening 90-95%. After I went to a samsung Service Point they informed me that this is normal for a folding device after 1 year of using. Would never believe in Samsung again after such a shame for 1.900€.
That is very bs I don't know about the 3 but in the 4 next to the middle we have a small bracket that is holding the screen and for some reason it's not very tight mine with the first drop got under the screen and I fixed it myself my phone opened only 3cm, the hinges are different but for sure samsung wouldn't put a hinge that lasts only a year what are they iphone batteries ?
Same happened to me in fold 2 in one year of use! Stupid samsung!
Did you try put it on rice?
Mine can't close anymore otherwise it will automatically turn off 😢😢
