One of the popular YouTube channels specializing in durability testing has conducted a lot of tests on the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2, such as: for example, burning, bending and scratching with sharp tools.
JerryRigEverything (known as one of the "extreme" channels in durability testing) praised the phone's durability, at least when compared to the first-generation Galaxy Fold (which tested its durability last year).
JerryRigEverything first opens the device box and then points out the difference between Galaxy Fold and Galaxy Z Fold 2 phones, for example B. The addition of a large, detailed, dust-proof screen is good for video playback. Then the channel checked Samsung warning to keep the phone intact.
Then start testing by scratching the external screen. The external screen can withstand intentional scratches with sharp metal tools at the sixth level, but the screen scratches appear in the seventh level, while the internal screen is not permanent like the third level and has scratches and even pressure with your fingernails can affect it.
Since there is a hinge in the middle of the phone, the screen can bend, causing dirt to channel to the screen and then fold again. After gently shaking, the phone managed to prevent dust from entering the port, which was well captured by the channel.
And since the frame of the phone is made of a layer of aluminum, scraping with a blade will only remove the colored layer, and the back of the phone (also protected by a layer of gorilla glass) can be scratched by the blade.
Even if the glass is tilted; Unlike metal or plastic, it's easy to break, and the phone is inherently bendable thanks to the hinge, which leads some people to believe it's easy to break, but trying to do so JerryRig, all about folding the device failed. It is a nice.
As for the burn test, the resistance of the phone (Galaxy Fold) is strong enough to withstand the deliberate burning of the screen, as the combined pixels on the screen leave traces on the internal screen after being exposed to the screen in a state of ignition, despite the fact that the internal screen is plastic but internal or external. .
Samsung announced its Galaxy Z Fold 2 smartphone at the Galaxy Unpacked event on August 5, along with two smartphones (Galaxy Note 20) and (Galaxy Note 20 Ultra) and two tablets (Galaxy Tab S7). And (Galaxy Tab S7 Plus).
