It seems that Samsung may be in some hot water on the potential issue growing with mood at its Z Fold 7. We are keeping an eye on development and still cannot decide whether the issue is a real cause for concern. Nevertheless, it is worth knowing.
We have at least a few photos published on the Reddit of what the facts like store demo units look like. Indeed, this does not open completely. “The poster mentioned that they” can help him a little “, so it is a case of not snapping properly than opening,” he said.
This may be due to a defect in the mood, something caused by rough treatment (though not such on such new units), or does not meet the case standards of preproduction units. There is always a possibility that users did not open the phone completely, intentionally. For the record, we have no such problem with our review unit.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 Unit does not fully open
Whatever the case, there is still no talk of manufacturing defects or any kind of recall. For some context, new and redesigned armor flexing should not only reduce display crisis, but also more durable by distributing stress more evenly.
Samsung has not yet released any formal pavement cycle durability statistics regarding its new hinge, but we know that Z Fold 6 is rated for more than 200,000 open and closed cycles without any issue.
It is also worth noting that there was an official tolerance between 178.5 and 181.5 degrees when the “original” “Zero-Gap” hinge presented with Z Fold 5 is fully open. Anything should be covered by a warranty. Perhaps the new hinge has a degree of tolerance; We are not only aware of it. Once the first delivery begins, we will keep an eye on how this story develops.
