The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 is undoubtedly one of the best foldable phones seen by us, but it comes with a cost of approximately $ 2,000. With that price, you hope that the phone can take some punishment, and recently the answer to YouTube video.
If you have spent any time in research on smartphone, you must have heard about YouTube channel. Jerrigeverything And its host, Zack Nelson. In many of his videos, he puts the latest phones through many durability tests, and his most recent video through his pace to see the Galaxy Z Fold 7 to see how difficult it is.
First, the Nelson checks the screen using a series of mineral pics rated on a scale of hardness on a scale of hardness to check when it appears. External performance began to scratch scratches at level 6, while deep grooves began to appear at 7 levels. As mentioned in the video, it is a specific score and the same durability seen on non-foldables like iPhone 16 Pro or Pixel 9.
Unfortunately, the internal screen still scratches a level 2, which means that the nails can also leave a mark. It has been a problem on every fold model, and Samsung provides a free inner screen protector replacement free within the first 12 months, with the following applications cost $ 19. However, if anything is damaged other than the top layer of the screen, you are watching $ 589 for full screen replacement.
One thing Nelson mentions that, through all his tests, no Galaxy fold model has ever taken away in half. Given that it is a fear that I have held for a long time, I was eager to see if the thinnest Samsung foldable would break this record yet. Surprisingly, Z Fold 7 did not snap, nor did it show any cracks when forcefully bent backwards.
Running a knife with the sides and the phone’s hinge left some noticeable scratches in the aluminum frame. Gorilla Glass Victus 2, however, performed better on the back of the phone, and it appears that Samsung resolved the issue seen on the Galaxy S25, where some camera rings could be popped with minimal force. Finally, the phone was also opened and the dust was covered in dust to check the IP48 rating, with no noticeable disadvantage to the Kaj.
These tests have shown how the Galaxy Z fold 7 is really durable, and follow the recently published claims of Samsung that the phone can manage 500,000 folding cycles in its lifetime. However, the continuous weakness of internal performance is related, especially the price to change the screen.
