What the actual F... I heard bro 🤣 I thought the same thing English isn't my 1st language but I think im pretty good with it never struggled with conversations or watching a movie without translation but those sentences fried my brain
If you want to play games on it, definitely get the fold 5. If you do not care about gaming on a phone, then get the 3. My old fold 3 struggles on Genshin Impact, but I've seen reviews showing the game running smoothly on the Fold 5.
As a fold 3 owner until last week, the fold 5 is noticeably different. The screen is brighter, the phone is slimmer in the hand and it feels smoother to operate.
It's not worth it from 3 to 5 yall are trippen. It'll be worth it when we get flagship camera specs. Yall spent all that money and my 3 literally has the same camera as yalls 5. Lol
@@HumanStateOfEmergency your fold 3 does not have the same camera as the fold 5. The fold 4 and and 5 have the same camera. I've owned the fold 3, 4, and now 5. There is a big diff between the fold 3 and 5, the 3s battery life also is trash, and the inner screen is way less durable, mine broke after the screen protector started bubbling 6 months into its life, and the chip sucks now. Upgrading from a 3 to a 5 is not dumb at all.
Fold4 and Fold5 are almost identical apart from the spacing when closed. I do wish they found space for the pen inside of the phone. I usually don't have protective cases on my phones, but on this one I have to since otherwise I have no place to keep my pen.
Between Zack's durability test, and another channel's live stream of real people opening and closing a Flip 5 more than 400,000 times before the screen failed, I think it is fair to say that Samsung has got this folding thing figured out.
meanwhile i'm on my third z fold 5 because the last two have catastrophically broke in the crease. i beg to differ. they may be stronger but quality assurance and consistency still has a lightyear to go. and their customer service is a whole different level of ridiculousness at how hard they try to fight warranty returns on a clearly defective product saying i'ts my fault when i barely even got to touch the damn things
@GreasePotatoI would assume he bought it once and then got a new one from the warranty.. before that broke too and he got a 3rd from the same warranty.
The Z fold 5 has survived the Jerry's durability test, quite impressive honestly. And that hinge test was insane. I think Samsung has found a way to really improve their craft. Still, a bit disappointed that Samsung decided to follow Apple footstep and move away from expandable memory, that solid grey block could easily be a SD card slot
It was very strange to see such a long SIM card tray in this phone, since the last 2 generations didn't have that, and were shorter. So weird. The only guess I have is that Samsung might have a 2 SIM card versions in some markets, but with eSIM, I didn't think it was still common.
So this video convinced me to get the z fold 5, after waiting years for the perfect folding phone to start with since durability is a major factor in the line of work I am in. Now, after some time with the fold 5, I have noticed many things. 1. The many complaints 2. Everyone discrediting the durability 3. Bashing camera quality, etc. However, if you like, I was wondering if it's worth it, I can definitely put that thought to ease. The answer is absolutely. The z fold is super durable, I am an air field electrician, so my pockest get filled with dirt and grime often, which has affected the phone's henge none. Moister that my phone has been subjected to has had no effect on the inner screen, ports, or speakers. It has been scratched on the metal frame and henge from a poor designed case allowing debris to get caught between the case and phone, which will be replaced with a dbrand case, but other than tiny scratches, no issues so far and my lifestyle is brutal on phones. The complaints about the thin front screen and camera quality aren't an issue either. I bought the phone, not for photo shoots and looking at aliens on the moon. Rather, I bought it for the purpose of multitasking, watching shows, gaming, and videos pretty much wanting the option of having a small tablet and phone together at the same time without the separation of using two seperate devices. The front screen is perfect for quick access or scrolling on social media, while the inner display is for everything else. The camera still takes beautiful pictures with amazing colors, quality, and contrast. The same goes for the video quality. If you want an army swiss knife for a phone, that is durable enough for everyday life, even for the more rugged lifestyle. Get this phone, you won't regret it. My only complaint is the misinformation people have let on about the quantity of this phone in other videos and reviews I have watched. If it wasn't for the Jerryrigeverything channel and the quality of videos you make. I wouldn't have the confidence in the product I end up buying, which has led me to enjoying my decisions rather than regretting them.
It's amazing to me how far samsung has come with regards to durability from the Z Fold 1 to the Z Fold 5. As someone who had the Z Fold 4 (traded it back in because I realized folding phones really weren't for me), I appreciated that the phone always felt just as sturdy open as it did closed. This 5th generation seems to be an incremental upgrade. It's basically a Z Fold 4S. Something to upgrade if you have a Fold 3 or earlier, but an upgrade that you can skip if you have the Fold 4.
When I ejected the sim tray from my Fold 5 as I went to insert my sim, I definitely felt slightly offended that they didn't turn it into an SD card slot. But they gave me 2x as much UFS 4.0 storage so I won't complain too much, I guess....?
When you consider trade in, a ~$500 yearly investment is nothing for the business utility folds provide. They have their use cases for the right people.
As an owner of both the 3 and now the 5, the biggest difference is the battery life. The 5 lasts so much longer than my 3 ever did even when it was brand new.
Yeah same here with my ZF3. I don't mind recharging it 2 times a day when I'm home, but I would definitely make use of a long lasting battery life for sure. Not for that price tag tho
Same, this is exactly why I bought my 5. I couldn't go for 1-2 hours before my 3 started getting low battery where I felt I had to plug it in. I love the 5, also another thing a lot of people don't talk about is the outer screen size. The 3 is practically unusable, the 5 display is like half an cm wider, it's much easier to use
I get more than double the screen on time with the 5 than I did the 3. Background battery drain seems to be a huge improvement too. I didn't realize how bad fold 3 truly was until I got home on day two with the 5 and thought my phone would be almost dead because I hadn't charged it all day. It was at 70%
I really wish Zack would add a drop test to the durability test as there’s no impact testing at all and that’s one of the major things I worry about. Also a mega thumb test in the soft plastic screen just to see if it permanently warps after really digging your fingers in. Otherwise I do love the videos, thanks Zack
Rocking a fold 3 for about a year now. Still works great and no issues. Got mine with a decent trade in and a steep discount for a reasonable price. Given what's been coming out since, I can't see any reason to upgrade at all.
I had my Fold 3 since launch, I only damaged it this year. So yeah before that my Fold been running strong. Never had issue with hinge or display, only thing had to get the screen protector replaced by Samsung that was it. 👍🏼
I am happy that I waited till the 5 because I assumed at some point, Samsung would be able to design the hinge in a way where it closes flat and they finally have

Literally watching this on my fold 5 (my first folding phone ever) and it made me sooo anxious lol. I'm incredibly impressed with the dust and bending resistance though!!
Mine is supposed to be delivered today so when I get off work today I’ll have mine, saw this video come out and I was terrified after watching the fold 4 and seeing as they are pretty much the same phone it made me nervous
Fold 3 for me broke just after 1 year . Internal screen just went black in the middle and the right side of the screen stopped working . Keyboard on main screen is a pain . So many typos . It will be my first and last folding phone
@@davidhughes2951the Google Pixel Fold has a much wider outer screen, that one will probably be my first foldable because of that, even though Samsung is on their 5th Gen already
it makes me hella paranoid. this is my third folding phone... but only because i've had 2 z fold 5's break in the crease on me within 10 days. i don't get another warranty replacement so im hella anxious
@twinturboray Excuse me? That's extremely out of touch. I could afford the monthly payments and there was no fees or Interest. I needed a new phone cause my iPhone 8 was getting weak in the battery department, and I was bored of iPhones
@@coastaku1954 what I'm trying to tell you is call the company you purchased it from and get a refund or exchange for the Flip 5. Most big companies will be able to refund unless they charge you restocking fee or you're outside of the window of returns. I'm guessing you got a good discount and you're just keeping it haha. But just letting you know in case you didn't
@@twinturboray you're out of touch with reality. That is sadness. If you can't afford an education or life coach, Don't comment on things you know nothing about.
I got the fold 5. So far I am loving it and after watching this realize I should calm down a little. I was so afraid at first I would break it. I still might but at least I feel a little better seeing this durability test. This is my first foldable.
You're gonna love it, just make sure you have insurance on it and you should be fine. I have Fold 3 been using it since launch and it still working strong no broken display just cracked my small outer display because I dropped it in a pool couple months back. My USB C port kinda fried but surprisingly the actual displays still work perfectly no dead pixels. The main big display work perfectly and I reckon if I never dropped it in pool my phone would have lasted easily like 2 or 3 years more. Just sucks my charger port damaged so I'll be upgrading Fold 5 this year. I would get it repaired but Samsung quoted me $650 to repair everything annoyingly so yeah sucks it happened when my insurance ran out lol 😅
samsung care is like $260 for 2 years with a $30 deductible. a fold screen replacement without insurance is probably $500. Definitely worth it on foldables.@@noveliayuki
It's always fun watching these for the Z Folds! I've had Folds 1, 2, and 3 until my Z Fold5 came in on Monday. Between 4 and 5 there's not a whole lot different besides the 5 folding flat, but between 3 and 5 the cover screen being shorter and wider has been amazing and I've been using the cover screen a lot more on average the past two days than I did with my 3. Not to mention I don't have to worry about wallpapers that don't look good narrow as much anymore. So while aesthetically it's a small change, for a user of four years now it's a very welcome one! 😊
I agree, I just got my Fold 5 and was rocking the Fold 3 and they feel like different phones to me. Form factor may be similar but there are definitly incremental upgrades that make the Fold 5 better in every capacity. Fold 3 was a great phone, the Fold 5 is even better and fine-tuned IMO.
I got my Z Fold 3 last year shortly before the Z Fold 4 came out. Probably should have waited, but my old S10 was knocking on heaven's door more than Bob Dylan. Oh well, worse things happen at sea.

The "Permanent" screen protector CAN be removed, but you need to be careful. Basically once it starts getting peely after a year or so, you can very carefully pull it off and either go without or get a new one. There are aftermarket ones that seem to be decent, but it should be noted that Samsung has made it free or fairly cheap to get a new one, like $20 I think, but walk-in locations are limited and sending your phone in for one is very inconvenient. When in doubt, don't mess with it and have it fixed by someone who knows what they're doing.
I know this is an 8 month old comment but I'm in this boat, considering just peeling the damn thing off now that I have a bubble all the way up the middle
"If you want a Fold 5, just go buy Fold 3" Cheers Zack. I have one and you may have just saved me a small fortune. As brilliant as the Fold series are, it's a shame that there are no significant changes each year. Especially where the folding screen is concerened.
And a very good screen it is too. The tech is still quite new though, and there have been advancements in the way they are built and supported since the Fold1. But, the screen protector on mine has come loose along the seam and for me that's a deal breaker. Not just about the screen though. The camera's could be better, the lack of expandable memory shouldn't be a thing in so flagship and expensive a device, and I hate carrying my S-Pen separately as opposed to internally a la the Note series. Also, it's just my opinion, but I wish it was slightly wider. That would give a more natural aspect ratio on the external screen as well as a slightly bigger internal screen. I've simply not seen enough innovation between the Folds since the 3 to make me want to upgrade. I was hoping for something from the 5, but I'm disappointed. May go back to a glass rectangle at this rate.
@gemazarusgaming1549 I had the pre-installed screen protector on my Fold 3 come loose in about a year or so. Replaced it with a different one off Amazon and good as new. I got one of those thicc cases that holds the S Pen in the hinge guard, so it's better than nothing. From what I can see, nothing major for me to switch up to the Fold 5 like you said. Mine works perfectly for what I need and still runs like I just got it.
Thanks for this! I have a fold 5 and was weirdly nervous sbout the hinge and inner screen and dust, despite having had a flip 4 with no issues. Now I truly understand that as long as I am sensible and avoid immolation, I should be fine.
7:43 That really tells you all you need to know about the latest version. A nicer way to look at it is Samsung is really trying to perfect the hinge before they start messing with the internals.
Hey Jerry, can you do the level 9 scratches on the plastic screen? It would be so cool to see the damage. Maybe the Flip 5? (After it’s been destroyed by all the other tests first though, don’t want to break the phone before you’ve done the durability test)
I think with folding phones you should add a bend test after rotating 90 degrees too, Zack - that would target different pressure points and be similar to the bend test on non-folding phones :)
There are actually quite a bit of visual differences between the Fold 3 and Fold 5, but they're not very easy to spot if you're just glancing at them. The Fold 4 and 5 are very similar though (I have the 4), and apart from the the "zero gap" on the Fold 5, there's no reason to get the 5 instead of the 4.
I'm in the same situation. I fell in love with Fold 4, I don't think I could never use a non flexible phone anymore. But upgrade is definitely not worth it rn, if they upgrade the cameras and the charging speed I'm upgrading instantly in the next generation because I think these are the main flaws compared to flagships.
@johnbennicelli708 dude, why is everyone so pissed about samsung brightness? In my experience, it's excellent. Never had issues with brightness even at summer on the beach. I almost always have turn on reading mode and extra low because it blinds me.
@pablopj broaden your mind. If you can't possibly fathom why someone would want more NITS on a AV media consumption device how unimaginative are you really?
@@johnbennicelli708 Be a bit realistic, who would want to spend 1800 bucks to upgrade from the Fold 4 to the 5 by a few nits if the Fold 4's brightness is more than enough to be able to use the phone in direct summer sunlight?
i really wanted to want the z fold 5. but having already the z fold 4 i really cant just justify this purchase. it really looks exactly like the same phone. hope next year comes with some new improved features, like bigger outter screen and maybe a slot for the pen inside the device.
I'm not yet into folding phones but Galaxy Fold 5 seems like a very durable device. I hope the Flip 5 is as durable as it's bigger sibling. Nice durability test as always! o7
not folding backwards even when considerable strength is applied seems sorcery-ish lmao. I have a fold4 and it feels so "easy" to fold backwards. Never tried though, thanks for trying that for us
I wish they had that for my Fold 3... On another note I think you should add a "freeze test" for folding phones...that's when mine bit the bullet...it was cold out folded my phone and CRACK right down the middle
I'd say go get a fold 4. The upgrades from 3 to 4 were pretty descent with the increased cover screen, decreased hinge, and better processors and underscreen cam.
@@reticentreceptacleI've got the Fold 4, and I work in IT, so I've put my phone through its paces in dusty and hot environments, and apart from being slightly dirty now it performs as good as new. I've got no reason to upgrade to the Fold 5.
I just had my Fold 5 for a couple of weeks now and then watched this vid. The scratching was bad enough already, all the sand and bending it backwards made my heart skip a beat or 2... Nice to know it's not a bad build or anything 😀
I recently realized that you didn't do a durability test on the note 20 (not ultra), and it would've been interesting to see how that one would have held up compared to other phones since it has a plastic back, and people dont seem quite sure on whether the frame was steel or alumimium. Either way, always fun to see you consistently test new phones, and whether they can survive extreme contitions!
From what I've seen of this phone. It really is mostly the same as last year and the year before. There's some minor improvements beyond just the better hinge. Brighter clearer inner display in sunlight and improved battery life seem to be the most notable improvements. If you don't have a foldable (or you have a Z Fold 1 or 2) and have the money to spare go for this one. If you have a Z Fold 3 or 4 and you're happy with it stick with that for now.
It's worth mentioning that anyone who works outside and gets dirty absolutely cares about dirt/temperature durability tests. I'd love to know how cold or hot a temperature I can still use my phone at. How a phone handles dirt and sand is also super valuable info.
"Just go buy a fold 3" exactly what I've been saying lol. Half the price, same phone I already have :) if it breaks, I'll just buy another 3, it's held up very well these lady 2 years though!
Lol no, fold 4 had better cameras, much better chipset and more ergonomic design along with a properly hidden under display camera. Fold 5 is the only minor improvement.
You guys are absolutely right about the improvements. It's simply not worth the $2k annual or even biannual upgrade even with the half off trade in promotions. To me.. I'll add that it's a personal take and others may feel differently :)
Got this as my first Fold last week from an S22 Ultra. Happy to see this passes. Samsung has definitely come far with these. Looking forward to the teardown to see the new shock dispersion and hinge. I feel like they're very refined with hardware and software against the competition.
You don't have any gripes? I'm coming from a 22U also and I am already missing the Spen functionality on the outer screen. And I also find myself using the phone unfolded more often. That's not a gripe, I don't think 🤔 lol. Naturally as a girl I have small hands. But I seem to find the buttons just fine. It's kinda like a mini version of a PC mini KB. But yeah anyway my gripe is the Spen and of course my fear of the non dust resistance. I'm afraid simple pocket lint is going to damage it one day. Not to mention the fact I like to frequent the beach.
To me, I don't mind. I like the smaller screen cause it's easy to one hand and with large skinny fingers I don't find typing too hard...people are just picky. It is a new form factor, so it isn't for everyone, but if you're spending this much money on a phone, open it and treat yo self 😅 This is my first Foldable so I thought thr 5th gen was a good starting point (as Jerry proves). Also, it stands out and you'll get a lot of people asking questions 🤷♂️
I got the Fold 3 on release, 10 months later screen started cracking in the middle. I though it was annoying scratches, but they were cracks. Took it back, stayed at Samsung repairs for 4 weeks (while using my Note 10+ Star Wars edition) in the meantime, they called me and said they will get it replaced with the Fold 4 (which had just released). Handed the new Fold 4 over to my 13yr old son brand new, i patiently waited for the S23 Ultra. And i am glad i did. My son has had the Fold 4 for a year now, it has been great. The S23 Ultra made me forget about the fold in an instant...
@@galaxygalaxy4429 i used the Note 10 + for 2yrs. Went to Fold. Lucky it broke and i gave the replacement to my son and got the S23 Ultra. I personally find the Note style the most practical, stylus built in, slim, full screen etc. I found the outer screen of the Fold too narrow, hard to write measages etc. And i couldnt walk around with it unfolded all the time. Thats me...
Fold 3 since launch still rocking strong but barely. I cracked outter display by accident when dropped it in a pool. Surprisingly no liquid damage on the screens so they work flawlessly just my USB C port barely works because liquid damage. So I hope it can last me a bit longer till I can afford the Fold 5 or Fold 6. Would have kept this phone wayy longer if never dropped it annoyingly 😪
Hello my friend! I always enjoy your durability videos, keep it up! I've recently bought a Samsung phone which claims to be a rugged phone - it's an X Cover 6 pro. It's a very repairable phone, the back unclips to remove the battery, and for that reason alone I don't believe its IP67 rating for being waterproof. However, it's a fantastic phone, extremely repairable, just needs an expert such as yourself to test it! All the best.
Did the camera "lenses" get scratched? Do you know what material they are made from? Also Gorilla Glass Victus 2? Wondering if one should buy extra protection or if the bezel around the lenses is enough. Is there maybe a magnetic cover for the lenses which one could easily take off for better image quality? Thanks
I just got a Z Fold 5, and it's my first ever folding phone. What exactly is the back panel made of? I've wasted like $40 trying to add different Magsafe rings to it. They'll stick, but removing a Magsafe accessory always pulls the rings off first try! I've also noticed that if you take a Magsafe accessory and put it up against the back panel, the magnets are attracted to the back. It's not as strong as when using a Magsafe ring, and the accessories slide around easily too. I've also noticed that, to my delight, that the back will not pick up fingerprints. I wonder if it has some sort of anti-something-or-rather coating, which is preventing adhesive from sticking strongly?
3:15 Pathetic beyond belief that Samsung would go as far as to add a form where the microSD card could have gone, but then not actually make the proper cutout for the card... 🤦🏾♂ At least the device passed the bend test, though. 😐
0:16 This reminds me of Joey using Thesaurus on EVERY WORD to write the Adoption letter lol! 😅 "They are humid prepossessing Homo Sapiens with full sized aortic pumps" 🤣🤣🤣
Its so hurting to see the fold gets scratched and bended this way, it just hurts 😢 But thanks a lot for the cool video and advices you always tell us...
I'm no folding phone expert but it seems like it would be much easier to make a hinge that folds flat than a screen durable enough to fold flat without cracking?
Recently got the Fold 5. Was confused as to why they didn't include an s pen slot until I took my wife's Note 20 and compared the thickness. There is no way the s pen could fit. They really slimmed down the fold phones which makes it a nice fit in the pocket. I was curious as to how durable that hinge was. Nice to see how well it held up during your test.
Guys DO NOT BUY A SAMSUNG FOLD. My fold4 inner display broke within 1 year and 4 months just out of the warranty date. The inner display is not ready for consumers. Samsung intentionally puts the warranty at 1 year, so they won't be liable for when it breaks. You will have to buy an additional 3-5 year extended warranty. HEED MY WARNING.
Same thing just happened to my fold 4. The insurance did replace it, however, they only offered a refurbished fold 4 or the fold 5. I took the fold 5 but it might be time to switch back to a slab phone after it ultimately dies in a year.
@@vedantpatel08366people use phones differently. problem with current consumer-level flexible displays is that they dont allow as broad of usage patterns compared to traditional harder, more resistant solutions.

As a fold 3 owner until last week, the fold 5 is noticeably different. The screen is brighter, the phone is slimmer in the hand and it feels smoother to operate.
Agreed, tons of other upgrades too on the Fold 5 including the Snapdragon Gen 2 chip and beefed up ram similar to the S23 Ultra
Yes definitely worth it from 3 to 5 but maybe not 4 to 5. Even though its only about 20g lighter it feels a lot more being slimmer in the hand.

The Z fold 5 has survived the Jerry's durability test, quite impressive honestly. And that hinge test was insane. I think Samsung has found a way to really improve their craft.

The complaints about the thin front screen and camera quality aren't an issue either. I bought the phone, not for photo shoots and looking at aliens on the moon. Rather, I bought it for the purpose of multitasking, watching shows, gaming, and videos pretty much wanting the option of having a small tablet and phone together at the same time without the separation of using two seperate devices. The front screen is perfect for quick access or scrolling on social media, while the inner display is for everything else. The camera still takes beautiful pictures with amazing colors, quality, and contrast. The same goes for the video quality. If you want an army swiss knife for a phone, that is durable enough for everyday life, even for the more rugged lifestyle. Get this phone, you won't regret it. My only complaint is the misinformation people have let on about the quantity of this phone in other videos and reviews I have watched. If it wasn't for the Jerryrigeverything channel and the quality of videos you make. I wouldn't have the confidence in the product I end up buying, which has led me to enjoying my decisions rather than regretting them.
It's amazing to me how far samsung has come with regards to durability from the Z Fold 1 to the Z Fold 5. As someone who had the Z Fold 4 (traded it back in because I realized folding phones really weren't for me), I appreciated that the phone always felt just as sturdy open as it did closed. This 5th generation seems to be an incremental upgrade. It's basically a Z Fold 4S.
Something to upgrade if you have a Fold 3 or earlier, but an upgrade that you can skip if you have the Fold 4.
Bruh its like Samsung is insulting us with that solid grey chunk where an SD card could've easily been placed. 🙄
When I ejected the sim tray from my Fold 5 as I went to insert my sim, I definitely felt slightly offended that they didn't turn it into an SD card slot. But they gave me 2x as much UFS 4.0 storage so I won't complain too much, I guess....?
Mine has two sim slots...
Probably only on america because mine has the 2nd slot for simcard on that plastic
Nothing like watching this on my note 20 ultra 😂
Average American problem
A foldable survived Jerry's durability test , I can say that Samsung z fold 5 seems a good option if you have that kind of money to flex on
When you consider trade in, a ~$500 yearly investment is nothing for the business utility folds provide. They have their use cases for the right people.
Pretty sure no Samsung Fold or Flip has failed the durability test 😁👍🏼

His name isn't Jerry FUKING LMAO! I always crack up when people refer to him as Jerry.
As an owner of both the 3 and now the 5, the biggest difference is the battery life. The 5 lasts so much longer than my 3 ever did even when it was brand new.
I get about 4 hrs SOT on my ZF3. Not a problem when you work from home, but not great.
Yeah same here with my ZF3. I don't mind recharging it 2 times a day when I'm home, but I would definitely make use of a long lasting battery life for sure. Not for that price tag tho
Same, this is exactly why I bought my 5. I couldn't go for 1-2 hours before my 3 started getting low battery where I felt I had to plug it in. I love the 5, also another thing a lot of people don't talk about is the outer screen size. The 3 is practically unusable, the 5 display is like half an cm wider, it's much easier to use
I get more than double the screen on time with the 5 than I did the 3. Background battery drain seems to be a huge improvement too. I didn't realize how bad fold 3 truly was until I got home on day two with the 5 and thought my phone would be almost dead because I hadn't charged it all day. It was at 70%
How do you compare the battery with an old phone and a new phone? what fools
I really wish Zack would add a drop test to the durability test as there’s no impact testing at all and that’s one of the major things I worry about. Also a mega thumb test in the soft plastic screen just to see if it permanently warps after really digging your fingers in. Otherwise I do love the videos, thanks Zack
This!❤
Rocking a fold 3 for about a year now. Still works great and no issues. Got mine with a decent trade in and a steep discount for a reasonable price. Given what's been coming out since, I can't see any reason to upgrade at all.
You got it for how much?
I had my Fold 3 since launch, I only damaged it this year. So yeah before that my Fold been running strong. Never had issue with hinge or display, only thing had to get the screen protector replaced by Samsung that was it. 👍🏼
I am happy that I waited till the 5 because I assumed at some point, Samsung would be able to design the hinge in a way where it closes flat and they finally have

Mine is supposed to be delivered today so when I get off work today I’ll have mine, saw this video come out and I was terrified after watching the fold 4 and seeing as they are pretty much the same phone it made me nervous
I will receive mine tomorrow
I'm nervous 😬
Fold 3 for me broke just after 1 year . Internal screen just went black in the middle and the right side of the screen stopped working . Keyboard on main screen is a pain . So many typos . It will be my first and last folding phone

I got the fold 5. So far I am loving it and after watching this realize I should calm down a little. I was so afraid at first I would break it. I still might but at least I feel a little better seeing this durability test. This is my first foldable.
You're gonna love it, just make sure you have insurance on it and you should be fine. I have Fold 3 been using it since launch and it still working strong no broken display just cracked my small outer display because I dropped it in a pool couple months back. My USB C port kinda fried but surprisingly the actual displays still work perfectly no dead pixels.
The main big display work perfectly and I reckon if I never dropped it in pool my phone would have lasted easily like 2 or 3 years more. Just sucks my charger port damaged so I'll be upgrading Fold 5 this year. I would get it repaired but Samsung quoted me $650 to repair everything annoyingly so yeah sucks it happened when my insurance ran out lol 😅

I've had my fold 5 for 6 months, it has held up great. Would definitely recommend to any gamer.
I am seriously impressed. Especially the dust test...wow!
It's always fun watching these for the Z Folds! I've had Folds 1, 2, and 3 until my Z Fold5 came in on Monday. Between 4 and 5 there's not a whole lot different besides the 5 folding flat, but between 3 and 5 the cover screen being shorter and wider has been amazing and I've been using the cover screen a lot more on average the past two days than I did with my 3. Not to mention I don't have to worry about wallpapers that don't look good narrow as much anymore. So while aesthetically it's a small change, for a user of four years now it's a very welcome one! 😊
I agree, I just got my Fold 5 and was rocking the Fold 3 and they feel like different phones to me. Form factor may be similar but there are definitly incremental upgrades that make the Fold 5 better in every capacity. Fold 3 was a great phone, the Fold 5 is even better and fine-tuned IMO.
"If you want a Fold5, get the Fold3"

nice to hear tech youtubers fight against the whole mentality of upgrading for minor changes. Vote with your dollars, samsung can do better

The "Permanent" screen protector CAN be removed, but you need to be careful. Basically once it starts getting peely after a year or so, you can very carefully pull it off and either go without or get a new one. There are aftermarket ones that seem to be decent, but it should be noted that Samsung has made it free or fairly cheap to get a new one, like $20 I think, but walk-in locations are limited and sending your phone in for one is very inconvenient. When in doubt, don't mess with it and have it fixed by someone who knows what they're doing.
I know this is an 8 month old comment but I'm in this boat, considering just peeling the damn thing off now that I have a bubble all the way up the middle
"If you want a Fold 5, just go buy Fold 3" Cheers Zack. I have one and you may have just saved me a small fortune. As brilliant as the Fold series are, it's a shame that there are no significant changes each year. Especially where the folding screen is concerened.
What bif advance would you like to see? It's a screen...
And a very good screen it is too. The tech is still quite new though, and there have been advancements in the way they are built and supported since the Fold1. But, the screen protector on mine has come loose along the seam and for me that's a deal breaker. Not just about the screen though. The camera's could be better, the lack of expandable memory shouldn't be a thing in so flagship and expensive a device, and I hate carrying my S-Pen separately as opposed to internally a la the Note series.
Also, it's just my opinion, but I wish it was slightly wider. That would give a more natural aspect ratio on the external screen as well as a slightly bigger internal screen.
I've simply not seen enough innovation between the Folds since the 3 to make me want to upgrade. I was hoping for something from the 5, but I'm disappointed. May go back to a glass rectangle at this rate.
@gemazarusgaming1549 I had the pre-installed screen protector on my Fold 3 come loose in about a year or so. Replaced it with a different one off Amazon and good as new. I got one of those thicc cases that holds the S Pen in the hinge guard, so it's better than nothing. From what I can see, nothing major for me to switch up to the Fold 5 like you said. Mine works perfectly for what I need and still runs like I just got it.
@@REPURDYJcompanies overseas are using 2k 144hz screens. It's a reasonable request. The China market has been making better folding phones for years.

7:43
That really tells you all you need to know about the latest version.
A nicer way to look at it is Samsung is really trying to perfect the hinge before they start messing with the internals.
Hey Jerry, can you do the level 9 scratches on the plastic screen? It would be so cool to see the damage. Maybe the Flip 5?
(After it’s been destroyed by all the other tests first though, don’t want to break the phone before you’ve done the durability test)
Would love to see if it makes through the soft screen or if the uth is able to stop it
For future reference his name is Zack lol
@@DragonOfTheMortalKombat Not even Gorilla Glass Victus would be able to stop a level 9 scratch, let alone the UTG

I think with folding phones you should add a bend test after rotating 90 degrees too, Zack - that would target different pressure points and be similar to the bend test on non-folding phones :)
Like trying to tear the phone like a paper?
should be even stronger because the hinge is essentially a solid block of metal
Subscribed because of your intro. Fan for Life 🎉
My first ever JerryRigEverything video and this hurt so much to watch. Well done.
There are actually quite a bit of visual differences between the Fold 3 and Fold 5, but they're not very easy to spot if you're just glancing at them. The Fold 4 and 5 are very similar though (I have the 4), and apart from the the "zero gap" on the Fold 5, there's no reason to get the 5 instead of the 4.
I'm in the same situation. I fell in love with Fold 4, I don't think I could never use a non flexible phone anymore. But upgrade is definitely not worth it rn, if they upgrade the cameras and the charging speed I'm upgrading instantly in the next generation because I think these are the main flaws compared to flagships.
This isn't true (IYO) The extended brightness feature is worth the upgrade alone.
@johnbennicelli708 dude, why is everyone so pissed about samsung brightness? In my experience, it's excellent. Never had issues with brightness even at summer on the beach. I almost always have turn on reading mode and extra low because it blinds me.
@pablopj broaden your mind. If you can't possibly fathom why someone would want more NITS on a AV media consumption device how unimaginative are you really?
@@johnbennicelli708 Be a bit realistic, who would want to spend 1800 bucks to upgrade from the Fold 4 to the 5 by a few nits if the Fold 4's brightness is more than enough to be able to use the phone in direct summer sunlight?
i really wanted to want the z fold 5. but having already the z fold 4 i really cant just justify this purchase. it really looks exactly like the same phone. hope next year comes with some new improved features, like bigger outter screen and maybe a slot for the pen inside the device.
Finally cometh the video we were waiting for
How come you dont do drop tests? With or without a case.
Nice work Samsung. It passed the test that google disappointed us earlier. Samsung is the king 👑 always
I'm not yet into folding phones but Galaxy Fold 5 seems like a very durable device. I hope the Flip 5 is as durable as it's bigger sibling. Nice durability test as always! o7
Check out the great folding test for the Flip 5 by MrKeyBrd!
not folding backwards even when considerable strength is applied seems sorcery-ish lmao. I have a fold4 and it feels so "easy" to fold backwards. Never tried though, thanks for trying that for us
But I tried it a little, it felt like bending solid metal plate

That intro script was a work of art. Amazing articulation.
"If you want a Fold 5, just go buy a Fold 3 - it's the same phone."😂
I wish they had that for my Fold 3...
On another note I think you should add a "freeze test" for folding phones...that's when mine bit the bullet...it was cold out folded my phone and CRACK right down the middle
I'd say go get a fold 4. The upgrades from 3 to 4 were pretty descent with the increased cover screen, decreased hinge, and better processors and underscreen cam.
I want the dust resistance of the 5, but until it's IP certified it's a no from me.
@@reticentreceptacleI've got the Fold 4, and I work in IT, so I've put my phone through its paces in dusty and hot environments, and apart from being slightly dirty now it performs as good as new. I've got no reason to upgrade to the Fold 5.

7:37 best quote so far. Made me laugh. 😂
This video is painful to watch....but it does actually show how much better they are getting. Durability was always my fear.
I recently realized that you didn't do a durability test on the note 20 (not ultra), and it would've been interesting to see how that one would have held up compared to other phones since it has a plastic back, and people dont seem quite sure on whether the frame was steel or alumimium.
Either way, always fun to see you consistently test new phones, and whether they can survive extreme contitions!
No one cares about the note 20 even when it was new that’s why
"If you want a fold 5 - just buy a fold 3"
The main take away from all this. Thanks for the video! Very informative.
Im always been amazed by he's voice over. A Lullaby. ❤
From what I've seen of this phone. It really is mostly the same as last year and the year before. There's some minor improvements beyond just the better hinge. Brighter clearer inner display in sunlight and improved battery life seem to be the most notable improvements. If you don't have a foldable (or you have a Z Fold 1 or 2) and have the money to spare go for this one. If you have a Z Fold 3 or 4 and you're happy with it stick with that for now.
For the next gen, you can just reupload the fold 3 durability test and do a new voiceover to call it fold 6
I bet people wouldn’t even notice
Isn't next gen getting a redesign though? Pretty sure it was confirmed a while back. (I know leaks aren't 100% accurate but c'mon)
It's worth mentioning that anyone who works outside and gets dirty absolutely cares about dirt/temperature durability tests.
I'd love to know how cold or hot a temperature I can still use my phone at. How a phone handles dirt and sand is also super valuable info.
The company's engineers must hold their breath when watching these durability tests
0:38 oh Jerry and his alliteration 😂😂
"Just go buy a fold 3" exactly what I've been saying lol. Half the price, same phone I already have :) if it breaks, I'll just buy another 3, it's held up very well these lady 2 years though!
IMO the fold 4 front-screen format is more ergonomic, those extra 4-5MM on the side change the experience.
Lol no, fold 4 had better cameras, much better chipset and more ergonomic design along with a properly hidden under display camera.
Fold 5 is the only minor improvement.
You guys are absolutely right about the improvements. It's simply not worth the $2k annual or even biannual upgrade even with the half off trade in promotions.
To me.. I'll add that it's a personal take and others may feel differently :)
Got this as my first Fold last week from an S22 Ultra. Happy to see this passes. Samsung has definitely come far with these. Looking forward to the teardown to see the new shock dispersion and hinge. I feel like they're very refined with hardware and software against the competition.
You don't have any gripes? I'm coming from a 22U also and I am already missing the Spen functionality on the outer screen. And I also find myself using the phone unfolded more often. That's not a gripe, I don't think 🤔 lol. Naturally as a girl I have small hands. But I seem to find the buttons just fine. It's kinda like a mini version of a PC mini KB. But yeah anyway my gripe is the Spen and of course my fear of the non dust resistance. I'm afraid simple pocket lint is going to damage it one day. Not to mention the fact I like to frequent the beach.
To me, I don't mind. I like the smaller screen cause it's easy to one hand and with large skinny fingers I don't find typing too hard...people are just picky. It is a new form factor, so it isn't for everyone, but if you're spending this much money on a phone, open it and treat yo self 😅 This is my first Foldable so I thought thr 5th gen was a good starting point (as Jerry proves). Also, it stands out and you'll get a lot of people asking questions 🤷♂️
As an owner of Fold 3 I approve this video 😂😂
I got the Fold 3 on release, 10 months later screen started cracking in the middle. I though it was annoying scratches, but they were cracks. Took it back, stayed at Samsung repairs for 4 weeks (while using my Note 10+ Star Wars edition) in the meantime, they called me and said they will get it replaced with the Fold 4 (which had just released). Handed the new Fold 4 over to my 13yr old son brand new, i patiently waited for the S23 Ultra. And i am glad i did. My son has had the Fold 4 for a year now, it has been great. The S23 Ultra made me forget about the fold in an instant...
@@najdoS23 ultra is the best, but it's too big.
@@galaxygalaxy4429 i used the Note 10 + for 2yrs. Went to Fold. Lucky it broke and i gave the replacement to my son and got the S23 Ultra. I personally find the Note style the most practical, stylus built in, slim, full screen etc.
I found the outer screen of the Fold too narrow, hard to write measages etc. And i couldnt walk around with it unfolded all the time.
Thats me...
Fold 3 since launch still rocking strong but barely. I cracked outter display by accident when dropped it in a pool.
Surprisingly no liquid damage on the screens so they work flawlessly just my USB C port barely works because liquid damage.
So I hope it can last me a bit longer till I can afford the Fold 5 or Fold 6.
Would have kept this phone wayy longer if never dropped it annoyingly 😪
Hello my friend! I always enjoy your durability videos, keep it up! I've recently bought a Samsung phone which claims to be a rugged phone - it's an X Cover 6 pro. It's a very repairable phone, the back unclips to remove the battery, and for that reason alone I don't believe its IP67 rating for being waterproof. However, it's a fantastic phone, extremely repairable, just needs an expert such as yourself to test it! All the best.

Did the camera "lenses" get scratched? Do you know what material they are made from? Also Gorilla Glass Victus 2? Wondering if one should buy extra protection or if the bezel around the lenses is enough. Is there maybe a magnetic cover for the lenses which one could easily take off for better image quality? Thanks
I just got a Z Fold 5, and it's my first ever folding phone. What exactly is the back panel made of? I've wasted like $40 trying to add different Magsafe rings to it. They'll stick, but removing a Magsafe accessory always pulls the rings off first try! I've also noticed that if you take a Magsafe accessory and put it up against the back panel, the magnets are attracted to the back. It's not as strong as when using a Magsafe ring, and the accessories slide around easily too.
I've also noticed that, to my delight, that the back will not pick up fingerprints. I wonder if it has some sort of anti-something-or-rather coating, which is preventing adhesive from sticking strongly?

I'm no folding phone expert but it seems like it would be much easier to make a hinge that folds flat than a screen durable enough to fold flat without cracking?
Best video for internet good luck brother 😊😊😊😊😊😄
Recently got the Fold 5. Was confused as to why they didn't include an s pen slot until I took my wife's Note 20 and compared the thickness. There is no way the s pen could fit. They really slimmed down the fold phones which makes it a nice fit in the pocket.
I was curious as to how durable that hinge was. Nice to see how well it held up during your test.
That's bullshit.
Samsung can adopt a wedge-shaped body like the Huawei Mate X2 to accommodate a built-in S-pen.
The new Fold 5 slim S-Pen could DEFINITELY fit

If you want a Fold 5, go buy a Phantom Fold. Every fold is classic.

A wise man once said, "If you want a Fold 5, go get a Fold 3! They're the same!"❤
Guys DO NOT BUY A SAMSUNG FOLD. My fold4 inner display broke within 1 year and 4 months just out of the warranty date. The inner display is not ready for consumers. Samsung intentionally puts the warranty at 1 year, so they won't be liable for when it breaks. You will have to buy an additional 3-5 year extended warranty. HEED MY WARNING.
My Fold 3 broke after 1 1/2 years , black line in the screen. I´m getting the s24 Ultra now.
Same thing just happened to my fold 4. The insurance did replace it, however, they only offered a refurbished fold 4 or the fold 5. I took the fold 5 but it might be time to switch back to a slab phone after it ultimately dies in a year.
I don't believe you because I am using z fold 2 from 2020 and then also it is working smoothly and no scratches in mid of phone
