Galaxy Z Fold7 passes gruesome durability test
If you don't feel like watching the whole video, here's the recap: the Z Fold7 may be Samsung's thinnest and lightest Fold to date, it's exceptionally well built and passed all of the tests it was subjected to.
The Corning Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2 protected cover screen scratches at the usual level 6 on Mohs scale of mineral hardness. As expected, the internal screen is still easily susceptible to damage and scratches at a mere level 2 since it is made from Ultra-Thin Glass (UTG).
The aluminum sides of the phone and its Armor FlexHinge can take a beating, and the IP48 rating proves to be effective against dust and other small rock fragments.
Galaxy Z Fold7 bend test
The highlight of the video is the bend test (8:00 mark), which yields a concerning amount of flex from the phone, but it remains fully functional despite it all. Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7
