    Been using this phone for about a year. I work in construction so its constantly in a sweaty leg pocket, being used around dust. Ive definitely felt like there were times where i felt something when opening it. However after opening and closing with use it goes away. Self clearancing is a option. The reason i bought this phone was because it the first time a phone was exciting to me. I also use excel in the field every day and this is much better than carrying a laptop. Also showing guys plans and what not is very easy.

    One note about the florescent dust that you used. I think it's much smaller than your average dust particle. That's why the phone was caked in it. I've been with my Z flip 3 to the beach and it's still fine.

    From the dust test, is it a big deal? Since it's IPX8, from the teardown, we see the dust is isolated to just the mechanical parts and it did not find its way into the electrical parts. Could you not just wash away the dust inside by submerging under water and working the foldable a few times?

    Would you say Fold 5 will have less of an issue with bubbling / pixel bleed on the inner screen vs the previous gen? There are lots of issues with the screen protector bubbling up and caused the inner screen to go bad, and not sure if Fold 5 with some new damping will reduce or fix those issues?

      @Reader999 Рік тому +2

      It's barely dust resistant since it can handle dirt and sand to an extent. In the video, this guy used fluorescent dust which is not going to be in your daily occurrence since dust particles come in all shapes n' sizes, not just 1 particular size nor material like shown in the video. Gotta wait to see Jerry Rig Videos for that. It's most likely gonna be the same outcome like the Fold 4 where it would work in spite of the dust on the device.

    Can't say I can still recommended as someone who have been getting all the Fold except 5 as my Fold4 inner screen breaks a couple days after that 1 year warranty ends, and finding out even if was in warranty you still have to pay some fees even though the defect is due to Samsung, never heard of RMA needing to pay some co-pay before.
    Any products people had to pay while the product was considered still in warranty?
    Back to the subject was quoted that the cost of repair out of warranty was $550 for inside screen repair for Fold2 and for Fold4 is $500. And even with out of warranty insurance Samsung Care+ or maybe some other seems just about the same for the Fold at least since for this type is premium tier where the insurance fee is already highest for coverage the deductible is also the hundreds so seems ends up in the same in the end if really total things up.
    Remembering still how normal and matter of fact it was growing up 90s, repairing your own parts was expected as paid full price for the product, so to bring repairs normalizing like that with movements and laws passing on Right to Repair glad to see it passing through states. Truly wide to see 1K-2K phones to be something to be a one year one time use what a waste in so many ways.

    So my brand new Galaxy Z Fold 5 that I just purchased if anything, maybe 1 to 2 weeks ago, is heating up VERY HOTT (burning, not a normal warm) on the space on the right, right next to the triple (3) camera in the back of the phone when I run the Roblox App and start a game - literally starts heating up within a minute of game launch.
    I see that from the teardown, there's a circuit board at the location. I thought the HOT would be coming from the battery running hot from game play, i was surprised there wasn't a battery there but instead a circuit board.
    What could be the reason for this very hot, heating of the phone at said location? I was looking on Google to see if anyone had similar problems with their fold 5 and no one said anything much. I don't know if it's normal or if I've gotten a faulty device and should contact Samsung.
    I do see that there is a half sized pull tab battery on the bottom of the said location, but it's not heating there, but ontop of it right next to the side of the triple camera.
    ** edit** I would say the hottest point where it's BURNING to the touch is more towards the middle of the phone, where if you look at the teardown back of the phone, the area would be the bottom portion of the circuit board. Food for thought, could it possibly be faulty connection? If anybody has a Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5, please replicate the situation (download Roblox and play a game/shooting game like Frontline, the exact game I tested) and let me know if your device heats up as well to the point of burning to the touch as mine did. I want to know if I've got a defect. I thought maybe it's normal since I'm running an intensive application, but on second thought, warm would be waved as normal, BURNING HOT, i don't think that's normal.
    No phone case. It's literally brand new, haven't bought one yet.
