Like foldables or not, you still have to appreciate the engineering that goes in those hinges
I don’t have to do anything you tell me
My wife had the Fold3 for about 1.5 years or 2, and just moved to an S23 Ultra. We were both heavy note users since the Note 2. But she went back because the line that folds, starting getting a bunch of microscopic cracks. And got anoying on white backgrounds. I got a fold 4 almost a year ago. Mine is starting to do the same. I'm going to the Ultra now that they have the note back and just renamed. But I'm a heavy spen user and spen on my fold is a speed bump on the back. And I find myself using the front screen 99% of the time. The hing is like magic! Lol
@@MikeHarris1984 Yeah I appreciate Samsung for innovating but I haven't heard of a foldable device that doesn't eventually break in a few years. I'll buy regular phones til foldables actually get better quality control
@@MikeHarris1984you should consider the flip 5
it's extremely durable and proven on youtube
very nice in the hand and packs some performance
if you'd like to take a break from giant glass sandwiches
I wish Apple would make a foldable phone.
After working with computers etc for over 4 decades I'd love to travel back in time to the 80's with one of these in my pocket! We seem to take it for granted but not so long ago this tech would be science fiction!!
Even a regular smartphone would be science fiction!
I always marvel when I think about people who are 100 years old today. When they were kids, the landline phone was a relatively new thing, planes had just been around for 10 years and TV was yet not a thing. And during their lifetime we have landed on the moon, can fly wherever we want, have phones with almost the world's whole knowledge base at our fingertips. It's a crazy fast and a huge change!
100% agree
We take it for granted, even back in 2001, this foldables would blow my mind.
I was born in 1988. Video games these days have graphics that I wouldn't conceive...
I am young enough to remember when multiplayer games weren't really a thing unless you brought your controller to your friends house.
I can't even imagine where we will be in 35 more years. Heck I'm streaming games to my phones now
The future is now old man!!!
@@ajbp95Even everyday devices evolved so much. You can buy a car that self drives. Cars can slow down and even prevent a crash. My wife's car isn't that fancy but it still nudges her back in her lane if she drifts out of it.
The battery pull tab is great for reparability, but it's a little odd how Samsung has put them on a model where it seems impossible to remove either screen without destroying them.
That's the surprise present. They say " you've made it this far, well help ya finish"
Samsung can replace the battery without breaking the glass. I am pretty sure it is a normal adhesive.
@@MikeHarris198423 ultra has pull tabs too
Pull tabs are not only for replacing the battery, it also helps when recycling the battery, so it's still much better than using glue.
He wasn't trying to remove it in a repairable way.
"With the screen successfully unsuccessfully removed" 🤣🤣🤣
I have this phone and it hurt my soul to see the inner screen get mangled lol. It's first folding phone and I love it.
Same. I think I might be a little sick after watching this lol.
Same this is my first folding phone and its probably the best phone I've had
This my second... upgraded from the 3. I don't think I can go back.
@@mattgilmore666 how is it goin tho
@@richtheobald4390I did the same. It would be a huge adjustment trying to go back now.
I laughed too hard at “since I’m 70% water” 😂
Love the lil Jon and Eastside boys reference of that is what that was. "from the window to wall" 😂
Definitely what that was 😂 took me by surprise
The engineering of this thing is pretty insane to be fair
Yeah
Drives you insane 😊
Hey Zack. What do you do with the parts/pieces after a tear down? Recycle? Sell them to repair shops? Plant them in the raised beds and hope for a new crop?
Great question, I’d love to hear this as well
He saved them. Has a drawer with all the phones
He plants the fold, lets it grow for 9 months and ends up with a tab s5 :D
@@germantapia9349would be great if he sold or donated them to repairs shops
Who cares what he does with them. The more important question is; why are manufacturers still allowed to produce such non-repairable, disposable devices, and why do fools keep buying them?
It really is interesting to see what's inside a folding phone, thanks jerry!
his name is Zack
Zack, not Jerry.
His name isn't fuking Jerry LMAO
He's literally said he doesn't mind that people think his name is jerry don't worry about it
“Thanks jerry!” Fucking LMAO
I thought shock dispersion made me think of a 3DS lower screen made of soft clear material, but I was wrong though. 😅
My mom bought this Z fold 5 already and we have to be careful not to accidentally break it. It's amazing lil folding gadget Mom enjoys taking calls without huge battery drains. 😊😊 But also taking pictures of her garden and sharing with friends.
If she has battery drains on a regular phone then something is wrong.
thats what i thought also lol@@Emily_Bondevik_Official
The beauty or curse of these phones is that they are genuinely hard to break, but are legitimately easy to fuck up in a permanent way just through regular use.
The lower screen of the 3DS is made from plastic because it's a resistive touch screen, unlike the more modern capacitive touch screens. Nothing to do with "shock dispersion".
@@GareWorkswith how hard I stabbed all my DS's, it was certainly dispersing shocks lol
As a Samsung technician, i'd say the 5th generation of Samsung foldables are quite flimsy to work on. Flip 5 is a bit easier opening up with basic tools, but the fold 5 sub Octa screen (small screen) needs special equipment as it sits flash into the frame and the tape adhesive used on it holds too much. Same case with the Samsung S9 ultra tablet, adhesive design is quite tricky. Technicians stay alert!
Do you work for Samsung
@briannjoroge2053 would u say the fold 5 is more durable than the previous devices.
@@dexter7939 yeah it is durable. Repairability is the main issue. Separating the smaller screen from frame needs special equipment.
@@muzammil292 Not really, where I work we mainly deal with Samsung phones
@@briannjoroge2053 Hi, i have a question about samsung display, on samsung repair services website in my country, i saw that there were 2 options for the display replacement, one was UB display for cheaper price, the other was OCTA, can you explain the different between them, and which display should i choose
I have enormous respect for Samsung for developing the foldable phone and taking the phone tech ahead .. as people are about to get bored on regular " pro" screens; imagine if we had to wait for Apple; it feels like no more lead forward after the original iPhone release. It's all about their profit margin,
Apple you will have to buy a separate screen folding key that is unique to your phone and needs replacing every year...
Apple has made huge leaps forward, but they're doing it across multiple products not just a single model of phone. They've been working on foldable longer than they have been around in their modern format, I guess they're not willing to release a subpar device.
@@CapyryanThey've released subpar items before. They aren't immune to criticism. Also Samsung does the same along multiple products, even in medicine, but since we're looking at a phone, we really should stick with criticism of the phones
That hinge is pretty impressive.
_"From the window...._
_to the wall...._ 😏"
*Well* played, sir. 😅
"From the window, to the wall" Damnit, now that song will be on my mind for the rest of the evening
Casually says " from the window , to the wall " 😂😂😂
Need For Speed Underground vibes :D
Hey Zack, owner of Flip 4 here, the microscopic sand that got into the hinge actually IS an issue. The reason is that once it's there, after you use it for a couple of weeks, the ribbons that connect the halves of the phone get sanded away. So my phone, after some dust got inside and it was working seemingly fine for a while, first had it's microphone disconnected, then the screen, then the screen had magically reconnected, so I used it without a working mic for a while, but after another few weeks, the lower battery started disconnecting, so when I fold the phone, it turns off immediately and shows bad battery. And you know what? To replace those ribbons, that cost 25 centa each, is the same as replacing the entire screen with the phone body, which costs hundreds of dollars, because guess what everything is glued shut and none of those parts any repair services are willing to replace on their own. So please tell about that to your subscribers next time. Thanks for your video :) I'll be trying to fix my flip 4 myself by swapping the working screen into a donor phone soon, we'll see how it goes, hope isopropyl alcohol helps :)
Update: it worked. But the magnet in the new body is too strong and the phone thinks it's closed (as I use the old motherboard calibrated for the old body). So I will need to replace it later. Until that, I carry a magnet in my pocket to place it on the back of the phone so it turns on...
I like the labelling on the ribbon cables, seems to me like a W for repairability
when i worked at a repair store all of the flip fold screen repairs meant taking the innerds of the host phone and putting it in a new phone since taking the screen off isn't worth potential damage. It also helped that all of these repairs were warranty repairs
Got the s23ultra couldn't be happier! I swear the newer ones made later in the year have 0 display issues like earlier. Coming from the s21 ultra my s23 ultra has even more color. No bubbles on the panel either! They definitely listened to the complaints and changed the panels. It's so dang good and crispy!
I want S23U
I have never seen the inside of any cell phones, let alone the Z Fold 5. Impressive! I have no idea what most of the guts are, but it sure was fascinating to watch. This was the first video from your channel that I have watched. I am intrigued, and have subscribed 👍
Fabulous teardown Zack! Thank you!
"Now, as an adult, you can go out whenever you want, but here we both are"
Jerry you crack me up, thanks man
Would love to see a side by side video of the fold 3,4,5, hinges, and see what the differences are.
THUMBS UP FOR BATTERY PULL TABS!!!!
THUMBS DOWN FOR ANDROID. IPHONE ALWAYS BETTER

They are forced. So is apple.
EU regulations.
Both companies greedy so discussion is useless.
Useless if you can't open the phone without breaking it.
The way you tear down these expensive phones so mercilessly it really hearts breaking, but still its satisfying and informative.
That was cool to see. Amazing how they come up with that engineering
Xiaomi unveiled their fold phone to have such technology but on the hinge (It flexes when the phone is dropped on the hinge to disperse the impact over a larger surface area). It would be nice to have some slo-mo shots of the phones being dropped and actually seeing how it behaves under stress
ccp=china copy phone🤣
if thats xiaomis claim then take it with a pinch of salt
it's still a phone with 2 screens one being folded, no technology will help that much aside from a bulky case if you drop it.
Xiaomi is rubbish
That sounds ridiculous. For this weight class, flexibility won't make a big difference for dropping it from waist level. I smell marketing BS.
I bought a Z Fold 5 last week. I'm happy with it. Although, it is pretty expensive but my trade in knocked off $800 from the price.
Don't worry... The info you gave away was a lot more than $800
I didn't elaborate much did I? lol@@naturegood515
Wow the engineering behind those hinges are awsome
From the window... To the wall... at 6:30 got me rollin... Bravo sir!
“We should start seeing screws if we enter using the correct direction.” Me overthinking 😂
If a company tells Zack exactly what their phone has, he just can't have their word for granted, he wants to check that himself 🤣
the hinge is incredible simple, very different of what i thought.
I've been a note user since I can remember, but I'm finding myself really wanting this phone lately.
Great video!
This phone is better than the Note & S series in every way. Except for the camera and no S-Pen slot, IMO. That being said, the camera on this Fold5 is still very good, tho. I love my Fold5.
It is the natural progression for a note user. I had the note 2, 4, and 8 and then graduated to the s21 ultra. The fold 5 is my first foldable phone and it is a sweet device. As much as I wanted the aspect ratio on the front to be more like the pixel fold, I now appreciate the ease of holding and using the fold with one hand for quick checks of messages, but as Samsung has stated, the main screen is the interior one and it's glorious to watch youtube videos and to be able to multi-task on. I tend to only use two apps at a time to multi-task with. My favorite pairing is with the youtube andgoogle maps while I am driving. If you make the jump to the fold, you won't be dissapointed. They gave me 800 bucks for my S21 Ultra so that is why I made the leap. Cheers.
@imisskatelyn9517 I've been on the fence about switching phone service so I may be doing it sooner than later. I do wish the camera had the 100x zoom because it is an incredible feature and very useful.
I switched from the Note 10 to the Fold 3 and my only issue is no S-Pen slot. And so far the only work around to have a case with a slot, but then I can't use the wireless charging with the pen inserted. It's rather annoying, but I still love the fold so far.
@@guybuddy I personally didn't use the zoom so much so it was a tradeoff I could handle in order to gain such screen real estate. It would've been nice to have the S23 Ultra camera setup on thos device due to it being a flagship device. I hope you enjoy it in good health.
Literally a table 😂
Samsung Z Table 5
But a small Tablet
Still remember the day I watched your teardown video for the first time and feeling bad for the phone. Not anymore though. Now, it just satisfies my curiosity.
tear downs earlier used to be just disassemble the phone and could put it easily back but with the phones nowdays all sealed shut the tear down leaves no way to revive the device.
"From the window, to the wall, JerryRig it all." (Beat drops and Lil' Jon screams, Yeah!.) Ha ha. Couldn't help myself. "'Yeah!"
0:46 And me since I am 70% water 😂😂😂
5:13 I'll pull out the NFC coil which works. Not confused with NFTs, which doesn't work 😅
From personal experience as a former repair tech, the fold 4 required alcohol and heat to soften the adhesive to safely remove the front screen. I assume the 5 is the same way
*Love your videos. Keep up the good work 👍*
I like the surgical precision that was applied in this video.
Just warranty replaced my Fold 4 for a second time in a year. The first time, it just shut off and stopped working, would not power on. In my research many of the first ones had a problem with the lego connector of one of the ribbons not being set well at manufacturing and they were poping loose fairly early on. I think that was a manufacturing flaw that was fixed relatively quickly. The second one I just replaced today had the dreaded won't open all the way problem.
I think as his video shows, fine dirt will get into the hinge area and gum up the works. So kept using with just the slight bend 175° when open, annoying but everything still worked. Problem though after a few months using like this the built in screen protector started to peal up down the middle to the point 1 inch strip hovering over the screen. Many said once you get to that happening repair/replacement or the internal screen will crack and they will say it was your fault. Verizon Extended warranty is covering this one.
I think the next innovation the Fold 6 should have is the screws that hold the rear hinge center section, or spine, should be on the outside. So a technician without removing any displays or back glass could remove that spine of the fold while closed, and could vacuum/compressed air clean out the hinge of fine dirt and dust, completely, then graphite lubricate the now clean hinges and the phone would lay flat again. Simply have 6 or 8 tiny security torx screws come in from the outside, make reparability of the hinges much better for the fact they are NOT Dust proof in this area.
My inner display just died. Samsung folds are not worth it.
"With the screen successfully unsuccessfully removed" this made me laugh so hard idek why 😂😂
I'm 70% water 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣. Zach is hilarious sometimes. Yet still so monotone. I love it!
That hinge is really amazing engineering creation
It's really sturdy. I like it.
Apple is going to have a tough time keeping up when and if they make a foldable.
Nah here's an iPad mini!
Keyword “if”. Personally I don’t think apple is interested in them. Take the mini series for example. They were the worst selling iPhones but yet had the strongest community. Everyone who got one loved it and swore by it. But since they didn’t sell like the standards of the pro series, they quit production after releasing just two models. A foldable phone could follow a similar path. But knowing apples reputation, a different path it could take is to be priced extremely high and become the “ultimate phone”. Aka jewerly for rich people. The same path their vr headset is heading.
apple doesnt care about competition so its very likely they wont
however, samsung will have a tough time keeping up with other foldables if they continue this trend of not changing anything on their folds
@@addedpoleThe only advantage they have over other foldables is the software and global availability . Huawei ,honor, xiaomi , vivo, oppo have issues here and there and most of these aren't really global phones.
My Mini 6 overheats in hot and humid weather, then shuts down. Many apps are not optimized for it, the keyboard is too small in portrait and too large in landscape and it has a poor display.
Watching these videos never gets easier
Just ordered one of your jerryrigeverything knives can’t wait to get it
5:53 - 10 out of 10 is too generous. If it had a removable battery like my Note 4, then it would be worthy of a 10.
One of the batteries is literally placed between 2 oled panels. Removable? How so?
It's always nice to see the teardown of a phone you own. (Watching on a Z Fold 5)

thumbs up for the 70% water joke, made my Friday! 😂
Hey Jerry, I bought your razer knife in green, and I just wanted to let you know that I absolutely love it and I will definitely be buying another one!
Wow! Keep it up. I love that there enthusiasts are actually showing the insides and physical strengths of products
I just realized i'm the first one
This makes me wonder about the new EU regulations going in effect in a few years where every phone needs to have a removable battery. Seeing this teardown, all the things you have to do, to just get to the battery is insane. It's not like it used to be, like with a Samsung S5, pop the back open and take the battery out. Those were the days.
They just won't sell it here. Foldables are useless anyway.
@@DarkOfGold nah they will EU is definitely one of their bigger market areas
Having a removable battery does not mean you need to provide a simple or relatively non-destructive method of opening the device is also required.
@@kopus7565- They won't. Technology wise it's not practical. They'll just make an ugly version to sell for EU and a more sleek and more hi-tech version to other countries.
I bet Iphone will be designing a dumb down version for EU market if the government there are stupid enough to implement such stupid regulations.
The EU needs to focus on things that actually matter, and keep their hands out of my phone and my pockets.
Jerry never disappoint to rig everything
Crazy how Zack has desensitized us, we watch expensive phones get destroyed like it's nothing. All for the sake of educating us to be more electronics savvy
Glad to see the foldable phones improving a little with each generation
Love your content. Keep up the great work!

Rise and shine, it's "taking apart the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 to reveal all its guts" time! Have fun!!
My fold 2's battery is expanding, it already opened up the rear cover on its own so that battery is easily replaceable, but seeing how hard it is to remove the front display in one piece even with a lot of heat I don't know if i want to remove the screen now 😮
don't burn your house down. that battery is giving you warning signals.

Recap by Tammy AI
Hey Zack you mention in all you're teardowns about the speaker foam balls. Next time you teear down a phone, could you empty both speakers of there foamballs before puting the phone back and test how the sound changes when the speakers has balls and no balls :)
It kills me that the sim card tray still gets you lol. I really enjoy your videos, good work bro. 👍🏻
Loving the humour in this video. Well done
6:21 - Get low (to the windows, and the walls, to the walls, till sweat drops down ma b----)
Just when I think phones can't possibly get more unrepairable, I see a video like this.
That's sortof just the tradeoff with trying to cram as much technology into a compact device. Phones back then were only "easier" to repair because a lot of it was mostly plastic. And even back then people didn't bother repairing them. If your flip phone broke you just buy a new one.
@@0xD1CE True, but flip phones were $300-400 on the high end and free with a contract. Glass backs have nothing to do with technology. Wireless charging and NFC existed before them just fine. Plus glass is an insulator so it traps heat inside of your phone better than plastic or aluminum which is an excellent heat conductor. Apple realized they could get away with such an anti-consumer move because they said it was their new style and everyone else followed suit.
"from the window, to the wall" 😂
God were getting old..
Nothing on the Flip 5 yet? Looking forward to that!
Usually when buying replacement parts original Samsung you get the display mounted in the housing already so you just switch the insides over. We never repair the foldables though since they are so damn sensitive and too much work sadly. We need to count in the time in the repair and it is not economical with these models i'm afraid.
When I tried to get my Fold 3 repaired under warranty none of the local ifixit places would touch it, despite being official warranty servicers. They made me mail it in to Samsung directly for repair.
@@BloodyLlama759 oh I am so sorry to hear this! :( You are not the first one I've heard this from i'm afraid. Many other places that repairs smartphones won't touch any of the foldable phones. It is real shame really but they aren't made to be repaired easily sadly. The new fold v5 that just dropped is even IP rated so they have gaskets and even more adhesives on to protect it but it makes it even more unrepairable. Just to buy the screen original part is excrutionally expensive. I am guessing you had to pay a high sum for the repair itself?
It's interesting to see how the interconnect ribbon cable folds. It divides the 180° into 3 sections.
Ensuring that the cable does not bend more than 60° which should translate to greater durability and more folds before metal fatigue sets in.
The pen digitizer feels like a wasted effort. Last I checked with a buddy of mine who owns a f4, he keeps it at home, doesn't find much use of it and wanted to give his away.
"Not to be confused with nft which dont work" made me smile 😂 5:15
Nice phone. Nice teardown.
Would have been cool from Samsung to have a message for Zack in that device, maybe on the silkscreen of a pcb. Something like: "Zack we have heard you, pull tabs for everyone." And then him discovering that. That would be priceless.
Wonderful teardown. This is such an amazing phone. Congratulations to Zach on reaching 7.8 million subscribers.
The sass levels in this one are too high 🙌🔥🔥 and i love it
Omg, taking parts from you to these phones would be awesome :P
Now that's what we call can claim as a "tear"down.
Wait, if those 2 separate golden panels were digitizers, does that mean the spen doesn't work in the space between the 2 sides of the inner screen? 🤔

If it makes you feel better this phone is awsome for daily use!
Honestly, the Honor you shown recently looked a LOT better. Better reparability and looks better too in my opinion.
Still... This was an interesting teardown. Sad to see them overlook a few things for a flagship phone that a lot of people would buy to last a few years.
