    Aside being the same for the most part, Samsung did made the only IP rated water resistant foldables, which is nice. It's strong enough to withstand Zack's bending too, another points added to a seemingly fragile device. 👍🏾

      It also needs to be mentioned that a newer model of iPad snapped in half because it had a microphone and some antenna bands in some not so smart spots, which makes it even more impressive when a folding phone survives the bend test

      As a Korean, I'm surprised no western tech UA-camr mentions the fact that the water drop 💧 hinge design in Oppo Find N was stolen tech from Samsung. The reason Samsung chose to go w/the current U hinge design instead of the crease-less💧 hinge was due to the advantages of water resistance, Flex mode, & overall durability.

      "Samsung's latest bendable screen technology has been stolen and sold to two Chinese companies..."
      There was already prototypes of Samsung Foldables w/ 💧 drop hinge/no gap, going back to 2014. They r working on water/dust resistant, less visible crease hinge that closes w/o the gap.

      @@Ryotsu2112 actually it’s cuz iPhones don’t hold the highest amount of phones in total but they are the highest sold in the higher price market,
      Meaning android’s may sell more than iPhones but it’s due to the budget phone models, like the cheap Walmart , virgin mobile, metro pcs, cricket wireless, boost mobile and free government phones given away to millions each year which also explains why the most used android version has always been a 3-4 year old version
      Like now that android 13 is just coming out, the actual most widespread android version is still android 9-10 and that’s due to most of those cheap budget phones come with those old versions and they typically never get upgraded to the newer version
      If most people android users actually had the most current Samsung Galaxy phones and pixels then buy shear default the use of the current android version would also be more widespread since those more expensive flagship phones come with the newer android version pre installed and get the next update at least

    I bought a Fold 4 recently. I'm a welder, and I'm terrified about metal dust getting in the phone hinges and soft inner screen. I put it in a sandwich bag and put it in my toolbox. Seeing how well it does in the dust test here, lowers some of my fears about it though. It is still a bit worrisome to take it out of the bag and see there is still grinder dust on the magnetic spots though.

I can tell you that I wash my fold 2 in wash machine, fold 3 landed deep into beach sand and never any of them fail me even once. All gets scratches on the hinge and that's all.

    I really do have to say thank you for these videos, Zack. Since there's so much overlap for smartphone internals and performance, a lot of my purchases are based on your tests! I loved the idea of folding phones from the start, but didn't end up going for one until I saw the flip 3 survive all the dirt and gravel you put it through (I took mine to the beach and the hinge is still a whisper). The inner screen has some minor damage, but thanks to your videos I knew what I was getting into with the softer inner screen and to be perfectly honest the thing has exceeded my expectations in terms of staying alive despite my daily abuse.
    SO I guess my point is this: Thank you for making all of this info freely available for so many years. Even if a particular phone isn't the most durable, it's really nice to know in advance exactly what I'm getting into, and not end up with a bending iPhone 6.

Much like a Nintendo DS, the device protects the inner screen by itself when closed. I watch a lot of UA-cam and the square screen does mean black bars, but coming from an iPhone 11, the black bar screen is still bigger than my iPhone was, and looks way better. Flex mode is also great for watching content without holding the phone. Gaming with Emulators is amazing, especially with the square screen for 4:3 and DS games. My favorite thing so far is the Kindle app. I own and activly use my kindle paperwhite all the time, but havnt touched it since I got the Fold since the screen is bigger, crisper and now more convenient. Also all my downloaded books have covers, unlike on my paperwhite.

      I actually have the OG fold. Got a little bit of water splashed on the inner display, then boom sent to Samsung. However in terms of surviving drops, it was a beast (with the protector it came with). I dropped it at least 100 times, in concrete, tile, carpet, and wood, with no cracks on the outer display or inner/hinge operation damage. The inner display stopped working however, when I launched myself of my electric board. The phone flew nearly 40 feet in front of me, shedding its protector pieces along the way, but no cracks on the outer display or problems operating it.

    What impresses me most about this phone (I just got it in July) is the battery time. I tried its battery from 100% and streamed high-quality series and movies for over 10 hours before it went dead. Ofc it was not high in light but it wasn't low either. The picture in Avatar 2 was stunning quality, and I had a hard time believing this was a so good Tablet in a phone, or is it the other way around?
    Amazing for travel too :) If someone had told me in '72 that some like this TV would come in pocket size and that it could call the world and have all info at my fingertips in secs, I wonder what I would have said?

    Personally I like the Fold line because the foldable screen tech is fascinating to me. And while the screen *is* soft and relatively easily damaged, their engineers really did their best to protect it when it's not in use!
    What's keeping me from buying one is a) the price and b) the almost square aspect ratio. Since most of the videos I watch are in 16:9 this thing us useless to me as a "tablet".
    I'd just get the Tab S8 Ultra instead to be totally honest with you! Which is a device that actually fought back during your testing, so I guess that almost earns it a spot in my backpack 😅

      on further thought, one additional thought/request. I love your tech content, especially things like when you installed the elevator, demonstrated the stair climbing wheelchair, all the phone things, etc and am a huge fan (I literally watch your reviews before purchasing any new phone). That being said, I love your channel for TECH content, and do not come here for political commentary slipped into videos. I say this as an independent who has voted for pretty much every political party, and I split tickets all the time, so this is not an issue of me disagreeing or agreeing with your views, but rather that I (and I am sure others) enjoy this channel specifically as it is a Tech channel, and not a political one, and a place to get away from the constant bombardment of politicized content out there.
      I fully support your right to voice your political views, and if you were to start a new channel expressly to discuss social and political matters, I would be a subscriber for sure. I simply feel that politics has invaded every aspect of entertainment and I would rather that I can view some form of entertainment that leaves the politics behind for a few minutes. I am sure there are many people who enjoy your tech content but do not share your political views, and by expressing those in the videos, you risk alienating that part of your audience. Perhaps you may feel that is no great loss, but I feel that access to great tech information should be for all people, and not politicized. Just as a thought exercise, can you imagine if the show How It's Made inserted politics into it?
      Regardless of your choices in this regard, please continue to make good tech content. Thank you for hopefully taking the time to consider this input.

      @@keremyildiz8078 telling myself what? That Hilary had a private server holding government emails? Or the the FBI trying to find the next exit from their stupid raid? "Classified documents" yea right, every president took documents home but because its trump you suddenly have double standards like jerry here

    Been constantly going in this channel since the Fold 4 launched 2weeks ago just to check if there's already a durability test. Finally, it now did and it passed. Getting mine this week. 👌

    ZFlip 4 is doing the same thing, extremely incremental improvements. Glad I sprung for the flip 3 after seeing that durability test lol, though maybe *that* one is cheaper nowadays

    nice one today! keep it up!
    i was always wondering how the fold handles the bend test when open, but bent the "long" way. you never seem to do that direction.
    in my opinion that would be the best comparable test to "classic" smartphones, structurally.
    (you did it in the closed position this time, yes)

    Thanks for the awesome CRINGE-worthy video. I just bought a Fold 4 and feel better about my purchase now. I don't plan on using that much dirt in any tests that I might do of my own. Keep up the great work!

    I think Zack’s gotten older. He used to bend and break phones like they were biscuits… now even foldables have become a bit of a challenge… 😉

    • @JoshLeon2024

      You forget that Samsung's foldable is actually more durable than a regular phone. This is partly because the hinge is made of hardened steel, which is incredibly resistant to attacks. In addition, the aluminum of Samsung's foldables is also hardened. The paint also gets scratches, but the aluminum itself is more robust. Many ordinary smartphones today are made of ultra-thin aluminum or light steel, which can easily break, especially at the point between the battery and the camera. With the exception of the main display, Samsung foldables are one of the toughest smartphones I have ever held in my hands (I am currently using the Fold 3 and will soon switch to the Fold 4)

    The interesting part about this test is that for the most part it's really durable. But some people have already gotten issues with the hinge and it getting stuck. Which is mind boggling bc it's not like they're being careless. It's like wow you survived this, but not daily use

    Dude.... this video randomly showed up so I clicked on it out of curiosity, and as soon as he (as a 3rd player) called himself, "crazy," it made me say to myself, "Man.... this guy's crazy." It was awesome! I was very impressed with the fire, and surviving the reverse bending.

    Good to know Samsung keeps on making durable phones. Can't wait to see how the Flip 4 and the Motorola RAZR (2022 version) can handle your durability testing someday.
