It is time to Take apart the new Samsung Z Flip 5. Get a 4-week trial, free postage, and a digital scale at www.stamps.com/jerryrig. Thanks to Stamps.com for sponsoring the show! The Z Flip 5 has always been enticing to me. The folding form factor is unique and a fantastic example of futuristic tech. However... My smartphone is a tool - and if a tool cant survive - then it doesn't deserve to be my daily driver. Today we start a multi year durability test of the Samsung Z Flip 5. Might also just be a multi month durability test... We will use it until it breaks.

@skyflakes3623 8 ай бұрын

@aaaaaa-hh8cq Honestly, I had the same thoughts that the flipping won't be useful for me (I mainly bought the phone for the style and to try something new). But after, like, what is now three weeks, I find myself using the cover display a lot. Some days, I use the cover display more than the main display. The use I found for the cover display is by doing essential tasks like messaging, maps, food delivery, weather, and other apps that are useful for the day. Also, I noticed that the cover display holds me back from further diving deep down with phone usage, like suddenly opening TikTok, Instagram, and other time-wasting apps. People say the cover display has limited usage, which they find as a con, but for me, I found it as a pro. Lastly, the "flip" makes the phone easy to stand. So, when taking photos, I never ask for anyone to hold my phone to take a photo of me or us. I just simply flip the phone in an angle, and it stands on its own.

That may have been the absolute best teardown ever. I am still trying to figure out how Zach reassembled that particular phone and it actually worked. Seemingly impossible more than most. On another note, does anyone else get concerned when Zach cuts away the screen (or back of the phone) with a razor blade with his fingers directly in line of an unfortunate slip of the blade? No worries I guess because he could always reconstruct a thumb or other finger and make it work as perfectly as most of the devices he tears down. 😂

@jsutrov 9 ай бұрын

as for cutting towards himself, that's something you get good at over time or cut urself so badly one time u learn to find a workaround. I've never that bad 'one time' and I hope he never does either. I learned watching others make a similar mistake I avoided it and even better hopefully for many merely hearing of possible danger they too can remain intact, smart, and safe.

In India and China where phone manufacturer competition is much tougher at all price ranges, Samsung beefs up the specs to compete. Here in America they lower them because they can get away with it. This is less evident in the premium phones but the low- and mid-range models show it very clearly.

I'm very curious to see how long this phone lasts in your pockets. I had a Fold 4 (RIP), that didn't make it past 9 months (I'm an IT Sys Admin with 3 young boys who get to play with it on occasion). Simply put, the inner screen protector needed replacing, and after 3 attempts of sending it to Samsung directly, they gave me a full refund. I've given them a second chance though, and am now sporting a Fold 5. Can't keep an addict down. Here's hoping we both have great experiences with our devices! (As a side note, I also picked up a 2023 Moto Razr + for one of my sons, so I'll be keeping tabs on it as well). I hope you and Mama and little one are doing well! ❤

Thank you for doing the durability test on the screen without the screen protector 🙌 I haven't seen anyone else do it and I took mine off day 1 on both the 4 and the 5 so I was genuinely interested (though I did anticipate the same as you found). One benefit besides the obvious of being much smoother is the repeated folding: I've seen a lot of Folds/Flips start to bubble and get dust between the screen and screen protector after a few months of folding, even have seen more than one get hairline splinters as a result, but my Flip 4 was flawless and I have the use-time of a 13 year old girl on my phone. Much appreciated, Zach, and nice work on this one

I bought the Flip5 after a few weeks of hemming and hawwing. It doesn't have as good a camera as my old phone, and the battery is smaller, but this time around I was mostly interested in the novelty and a chance to try and new less bulky form factor, and boy am I glad I did. The screen and hinge durability is a concern though, and I kinda expect this phone to not last much longer than two years with regular and a little careless use, as is normal for humans. I hope next year's model isn't just a minor upgrade on the old model. These phones would be perfect with a bigger battery and more competent camera.

Ah, I was hoping you'd commit to the Fairphone due to its environmental positives. Also thanks for peeling off the screen protector to see the level of damage underneath, that is very useful!

i mean he did say if the Flip 5 survived the test, he'd switch to it. he's just committing to the bit.

The fairphone is unusable as a day to day phone lol. He would literally rather go back to the note 10 as it's a better phone even tho it's 4 years old

After the Backstory with his shattered screen from the Doorstep (which leaves him rushing to repair it becaus of Buissness Reasons) he said, he wants a Phone with multipe screens to keep it functional at a minimum if something like that ever happens again. im not a fan of Flip Phones but this is a fair point he makes here.

I've had my s9 plus for almost 5 years and I love it. I'm long overdue for an upgrade. I hope this z flip is a good option. My last flip phone was from Verizon, an LG VX8300. This was a personal favorite of mine

Really looking forward to the Flip experience. Give us updates at different milestones (6 months, 1 year...). Curious to see how the phone holds up against the 'Killer of phones'

Just get the S23 Ultra. Way more durable, has better cameras and longer battery life. That Z Flip will last 1 year tops, 2 years if you're really lucky.

Well, using my flip3 right now, watching this video agree with you. I have owned this phone for just over two years. I think I got some miracles.

My mom almost pulled the trigger on buying this, thankfully my (recently‐deceased) dad left his S23 Ultra behind and she settled for that instead. She is planning on selling her S22 Ultra btw

it's not that fragile, plus the design on the flip is way more beautiful

@stendoff2469 8 ай бұрын

I think s23 ultra is very huge so I dont like it but s23 has comfortable ergonomic design on the other hand cameras of the s23 ultra better than camera of the s23

Very surprised to not see you on the Fairphone considering you also enjoy longevity and this goes towards that.. Even MORE surprised to see you pick any kind of folding display as this goes directly against that.

The Fairphone isn't available in North America, so that's probably why.

I'm a maintenance engineer and I have the fold 4. I regularly get metal filings stuck on the magnets in the corners of the inner screen. Not a massive issue but it does cause indentations on the screen. Just something to consider.

@stephenlouden480 9 ай бұрын

I was going to switch to this too but I can't get over the plastic screen that scratches and dents easily do I opted for the s23 ultra I trade my Note 20 in and it reduced the piece to 500$ so that was the best decision I've made. the integrated s pen the super clear and bright display and amazing camera. plus the battery lasts forever and charged almost fully in 30 min. it prob won't happen any time soon but until they somehow make real glass foldable, I won't be getting any flip phone. still the z flip and cold are amazing in their own right , like you are for doing all these tests for us. Keep it up

I believe the length of software support like the OS and security patches are far more important these days than the replaceablity of battery. As they tend to reach EOL much before the batteries do 😊

@bakatesto1069 9 ай бұрын

I would really like a follow up review if anything happens to the phone or if it needed any kind of replacement. Was also wondering if you were going to stick to the case u had or go for a slimmer form factor.
