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.

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...

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.

I’ve had one of those in the same color. Promptly sold it to a friend after a few weeks (it had complimentary Care+), especially after reports of the screen spontaneously cracking at the crease and getting scruffs at the hinge from normal use. Repairing the screen is expensive if you didn’t get Care+. If you pre-ordered one, you’re one of the lucky ones that get complementary Care+ protection for 1 year and a 25W charger. Right now, they’re selling even slightly used ones for less than half of the retail price because of the cost of repair (especially if you don't have Care+).

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.

I've also seen a lot of people on reddit who had their screens replaced and they noticed that the crease on the replaced screen is smaller, the hinge is stiffer (since you get a whole new housing when you get a screen replacement) and things like that. I really believe these foldables have bad batches, that's why although I love this phone, I don't recommend it to anyone.

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

The reason there was silicone around the front facing camera is to help keep dust out i think.

My Flip is still working as it should after 9 months. The only thing that needed replacing was the included screen protector.

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.

AH-HA! GREAT VIDEO!!! Thanks! I love your commentary, too. I own one of these little monster puzzles. I use to work at computer repair store. What an ugly, thankless job that was. I use to repair desktops, laptops and expensive media walkman cassette reorders. Talk about mechanical cr4p, you need to lay everything out in an orderly fashion. This is so repairing it's easier to do monkey see, monkey do repairs. You've got good fundamental practices. Give yourself a pat on the back!

It will be interesting to see how this tech progresses over the next few years or so. We have a few of the Fold3 and 1 Flip (silicon case to keep from making much thicker). So far we have been quite happy with them, but did get coverage for damage. So far so good, all 4 devices are still working great even under heavy use. It will be hard to go back of course as I have integrated it with home, gaming, and work.

The worst part about the Flip 3 & Fold 3 is you are unable to purchase the North American version display assembly from any retailer even Samsung authorized resellers . The 5g antenna cut outs are different from the international version.

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.

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...

I’m surprised the screen looked fairly genuine but didn’t come with a battery pre installed, didn’t think service packs ever came without the battery, unless you simply bought it off someone who took out the battery to sell elsewhere.

Genuinely curious how this person treated their phone. I've had my Flip 3 for 10 months and the most I have is a small divot in my screen from be dropping something on it when it was open. Screen works fine, just a pixel small part of the glass is broken. These phones are pretty durable so it's a shame to see it in this condition...
