$230 Galaxy Z Flip 3 Restoration

Time and time again, I am stunned just how unrepairable modern devices are. It's pretty sickening actually, but nonetheless, great fix!!

[@thetechfromheaven]

But he actually repaired it tho. You might mean they are more fragile and built with planned obsolesence, because Samsungs are very easy to repair, they were the first ones who started offering original replacement parts, and almost all their devices use the same type of screw unlike Apple who used like 10 diferent types and makes repairs a pain.

[@RicoGalassi]

@@thetechfromheaven what I meant is repairs are not user friendly. They require tools and in some cases like this one, they require entirely new chassis that cost a few hundred dollars. 👍🏼

[@thetechfromheaven]

@@RicoGalassi yup, repairs will always scare away the average user. But if you have $1000 burning in a hole, it's a very good idea to invest in repair tools.

@@RicoGalassi That glue hell makes me sad every time I see it. Not Hugh's job with the glue, no the mere need for it. My Z5 Compact too is fully glued shut and I really hate this crappy trend. I came to the video wondering how in heck you separate the screen and reattach it properly, and then he just goes "Nope, DON'T". And... yes, fully understand why.

[@chachaboy2]

@@thetechfromheaven If you have a thousand dollars to burn though, you'd be better off just buying a new phone. Unless you're a repair shop, spending a thousand dollars isn't exactly worth it for a 230 dollar phone.

This proves that company’s can repair folding phones but choose not to. Love the videos Hugh

[@MrREDSTAR20]

I wonder can you scrape off the paint of the phone to make a clear version it looks awesome on the inside

[@TheCoolDave]

This a factor because of cost. Think of a repair shop. This display cost $350, the shop has to mark it up for a profit, so lets say $50, so now the screen costs $400, then their is labor costs. This is not just heat removing a display and replacing (iPhone and most Android devices), your completely disassembling the phone. This could cost $150+ in labor, so now a $1500 phone is going to cost $550-650 to repair. Most people would just buy a new phone.... When display prices come down so a shop could replace it for $300-$400 it might be an option for them to repair...

[@bosenngantor9160]

@@TheCoolDave the thing is...sparepart price tends to stay the same almost forever, the price of secondhand/ preloved smartphone would simply be 1/2 or 1/3 of the display sparepart itself after 2-3 years after its released

[@Windows98R]

Companies don’t really care for IF they can, it’s a matter of SHOULD they. If I was running a business I’d rather take the decision that consumes less time and money for the same general outcome. And a replacement is more viable as a option. Labor (people) aren’t cheap, they are in fact often the most expensive part of a company expense.

[@TheCoolDave]

@@Windows98R Nah, the first fold phones that came out were canceled because of even the display models cracked very quickly. They were very poor design, and they redid it and with a few revisions they felt it was good. Still the tech is not even close to being ready for everyone. I know people who have had problems with them after a few months and by then the warranty was up. I feel the tech is not ready for the consumer pocket but, to each their own... It's devices like this that keep repair places open and making a profit...

[@TheSpotify95]

Nice repair and restoration, and I'm glad to hear it worked out OK for you! Having said that, due to the fragile nature of these phones, I wouldn't be getting one anytime soon. If I want a phone with two screens, I'll get a proper dual screen phone, like the LG G8X.

These are not that fragile. I bought one for my mom. 6 months and several drops later and still no issues. Plus samsung has a policy for the first year. If the display is cracked for any reason, they only charge you ~100dollars for the repair.

I work on Samsung phones on a daily basis, mostly OEM repairs. And my least favorite part of working on them is dealing with adhesive. It really is an art to get it just right. I am lucky that I have access to Samsung's adhesive so I don't have to use the liquid stuff but still it is very annoying!

[@NoName-ik2du]

I like the concept of folding smartphones a lot, but I wish they'd ditch the folding screen and make it two separate displays with a tiny line in between them (like dual monitors for a computer). Then have the software treat those two screens as one. Sure it's not as "cool", but it's a lot more practical, durable, and you get the same utility (plus probably at a _much_ cheaper price point). I've only seen one phone do it this way, and I don't recall it getting a lot of attention.

[@bosunhawk]

I used to repair a lot of phones for family and friends. While I loved owning a Z Fold 2, just like this phone, it requires so much TLC to keep it functioning. I'm moving back to a flat phone that doesn't feel like a brick in my pocket 👍

The restoration is quite satisfying. I wouldn't spend my money on foldables just yet though. The durability still concerns me and I like to keep my phone for years until it no longer receives software and security updates.

[@Sapient_Pearwood]

Man, I was with you until I got to go hands-on with a Z Flip 4, I ended up upgrading from my Note 20 Ultra 5G to the Z Flip 4 on the spot and haven't regretted it a bit. I was really concerned with durability as well but it seems like they've worked a lot of the kinks out and from my experience thus.fsr it isn't really much different than having Amy other phone except I don't use the inner display in places that might damage it like anywhere that there are large amounts of particles in the air or stuff flying through the air. I've also been pleasantly surprised by the cover screen. I was concerned about it being too small/narrow for my fat fingers but surprisingly I make fewer spelling errors/mistypes with it than I did with my Note 20 Ultra 5G. It sits in my hand more comfortably than the Note as well, even when unfolded thanks to the way Samsung balanced both halves, and both screens look fantastic! If you have a phone store near you where you can play with one in person I eould highly encourage you to do so. I've been shocked by how different thr phone is in person compared to the idea I had in my head.

Also got a Flip3. Mine is now about 10 month old and shows deep scratches along the folding display part. It seems like the top layer plastic(display foil came off after 6 month of use) broke open. Rly sad because otherwise my Flip 3 proved to be pretty solid. Can't report a worn out hinge or any other signs of wear and tear. So i definitely consider to repair mine. Samsung typically gives you a new screen for 1/2 the typical repair cost(450€) if it breaks within the first year of purchase. 225€ still cheap compared to a whole display assemble

[@desyrachmawati1963]

Same with me, mine is shows scratches, and I dont know why it was happened. I just flip and put it on my pocket, and when I opened it, I was shocked looking the scratches along the screen. Is that human error or defect from the product?

Recently got myself one of these in perfect "like new" condition for only £400 (I'm becoming obsessed with buying tech the moment the next gen model comes out, just got a 2021 legion 7 for £700 less than the 22 model despite only a 10% performance difference, imo it's the best way to find bargains). I absolutely love the phone, it's the perfect replacement for my old note 8 as I get that note sized screen but it can still fit in women's jeans pockets (crucial as I don't carry a handbag). my biggest worry tho is reparability, I know the screen protector on the front has a tendency to crack over time and replacing it is not an easy process (thankfully the person I bought from had Samsung replace the original before sending it to me but still it's a worry). I suppose I just have to accept that this is not the type of phone I can keep using for 3+ years like my previous ones, tbh if it makes it 2 I'll be doing well. still for the price I paid I don't really mind, top of the line specs and a cool factor that'll impress more than the latest iPhone is pretty good for only £400, hopefully by the time it breathes it's last I'll be able to get a flip 5 for a good price and fingers crossed it'll be out of the early adopters phase by then.

[@rvlyssup]

Pre-ordered this phone along with a couple of the Fold 3s direct from Samsung. After 3 months of use, the hinge had lost about 30% of its tension. Wasn't as floppy as the older Z2s that i had seen but nevertheless unacceptable for a new phone. Never dropped the phone or abused it and was encased in a Spigen Tough Armor case. Samsung stated they couldn't guarantee a flawless repair and would carrier lock it. They flat out refused to exchange it stating it was past that point. I ended up losing money on it and just traded it in for an S22 Ultra...got $400 for it. Yeah probably could have sold it privately but unfortunately nowadays, there are just too many shady people out there. I didn't want to deal with that mess as well.

[@christophersack1406]

That's interesting as I had sent mine in with multiple obvious dents, scratches and dirt for a screen that was tearing from the folds. They still swapped it out and sent me a brand new phone 9 months into owning the Z Fold 3. Which country are you in? Manufacturer warranty lasts for 1 year in Canada.

[@rvlyssup]

@@christophersack1406, USA...SoCal. Samsung warranty is 1 year...been that way since owing my first Samsung mobile device. I just sent back a G3 watch for warranty exchange no questions asked.

[@slicey80]

Honestly as a tech, my way forward for my fold 3 down the track will be diy, and considering currently in Australia, $750 gets you a replacement housing like this for the flip 3, it still beats buying a new $2500 phone

[@SpookySkeletonGang]

A phone like the Z-Flip 3 is basically my dream phone, but I simply don't trust the tech yet. FAR too many times have I seen displays crack at random, and while I'm sure that's not likely, I'd rather not risk it until we've seen folding displays mature a bit more.

Mine is still like new and i have it since launch day. The warranty also covers the foldable screen if it dies without being your fault (in my country at least).

Yea, if you drop a bar phone in a case, unless you have bad luck, your fairly good and a cracked display on any other Samsung, is like $100-150, and can be swapped out with a heat. Drop this and your down $1500. I don't trust the tech YET...
