The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7<\/a> has just aced one of the internet\u2019s most famous durability tests. In a new video titled \u201cSamsung Z 7 Durability Test \u2013 The End is Near,\u201d tech YouTuber Zack Nelson of JerryRigEverything put Samsung\u2019s latest ultra-thin foldable through his battery of stress tests, including the dreaded bend test. While no Galaxy Fold device has ever snapped in half during one of Nelson\u2019s durability evaluations, the Z Fold 7\u2019s ultra-thin design had many, including us, expecting a different outcome this time around. What actually happened, however, was nothing short of remarkable.<\/p>\n In a true showcase of Samsung\u2019s engineering prowess, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 not only withstood a forceful bend attempt, it came out with flying colors without the inner display cracking or creasing. Even Samsung\u2019s redesigned hinge remained intact at the end of the torture test.<\/p>\n We genuinely expected the device to fail under physical pressure, but it retained full functionality, proving just how far Samsung has come in foldable phone durability. This is no small feat for a phone as thin and lightweight as the Galaxy Z Fold 7<\/a>. Nelson called it \u201cLiteral black magic\u201d in his video.<\/p>\n Samsung also previously revealed that the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is rated for an impressive 500,000 folds<\/a>. That\u2019s nearly ten years of opening and closing the phone 150 times a day.<\/p>\n So if you are eyeing the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and were worried about the phone snapping in half, this durability test should give you confidence that Samsung has made a pretty strong device.<\/p>\n
