The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 has just passed one of the most popular durability tests on YouTube, conducted by Zack Nelson, the man behind the JerryRigEverything channel. In the video , Samsung's latest foldable device faced a series of rigorous tests, including bending, scratching, and exposure to dust.

Surprisingly, the Galaxy Z Fold7 not only withstood the manual bending test but also functioned normally after being subjected to strong force. The screen remained intact, the hinge did not deform, and the device retained its functionality. This is clear evidence of the significant advancements in design and durability of foldable phones from the South Korean manufacturer.

Nelson called the Z Fold7's durability "true black magic," emphasizing that the ultra-thin design doesn't mean low durability. Samsung says the device can be folded up to 500,000 times, equivalent to nearly 10 years of use with 150 folds and unfolds per day.

Alarm raised over leaked digital account information.From malware distribution campaigns via messaging apps to large-scale data breaches, digital accounts are becoming a prime target for cybercriminals. The increase in login information leaks demonstrates the real threat of cyber insecurity for both individual users and organizations/businesses.

In dust resistance testing, despite only achieving an IP48 rating, the Galaxy Z Fold7 remained undamaged after exposure to a large amount of dust and debris. The hinge and screen functioned stably, with no signs of sticking.

However, Samsung's device still has an inherent weakness. The outer screen, protected by Gorilla Glass Victus 2, suffers minor scratches at level 6 and deep dents at level 7 on the Mohs scale. Meanwhile, the inner screen starts scratching at level 2, meaning it's easily damaged by fingernails or soft objects like pencil tips. This may be why the South Korean manufacturer includes a free screen protector for customers during the first year of use.

Despite its limitations, the Galaxy Z Fold7 is establishing itself as a groundbreaking device. Samsung has not only achieved the thinnest design in the foldable phone segment but has also significantly improved durability, a factor that was previously an inherent weakness of this product line.
