I just finished watching the video and it’s impressive that you wanted to do this with a 1k dollar phone. I get nervous taking apart my old 2011 MacBook Air. Epic video as always :D
I've had the fold 3 for nearly a year now and have had no issues with screen damage, as long as you don't dig your nail into the screen (not something anyone would typically do with any screen really) you shouldn't have any problems. The only thing I've needed to do is get the screen protector replaced as it started to bubble after 7 months, Samsung had it replaced with 20 minutes of me walking into the store and said they aren't charging for repeat replacements anymore which is nice
Yeah plus he didn't even damage the screen, like you said there's a screen protector applied UNDER the edges of the phone, to prevent the screen itself to be damaged. What do you mean they aren't charging for repeat replacements?
@@kirakira9906 so originally the first screen protector replacement was free and after that is would be about $10 for each replacement you wanted after that but the guy in the store told me they aren't charging people for them even if it's their second, third, so on.
@@kirakira9906 No. With the screen protector on or not, it scratches. It isn’t glass remember. They will always scratch because that’s how that material works in order to bend.
@@callsai What case did you buy? I had an Otterbox case at first, it was super tight on the phone, but it cracked eventually. The one I have now is a durable semi-rigid rubber.
I have a case on my Z Flip 3 that works quite well. It's just like any normal case. One piece for the top, one for the bottom. There are also cases with a cloth/flexible piece connecting the two halves to cover the hinge.
Hey, anyone reading this.Keep grinding ,stay positive, Life is a nonstop journey. Be proud of how far you've come and get excited for how much further you'll go. 🤞🏽🙏🏽!
Honestly i have to give you creds for showing little accidents like breaking the front camera cable. not many phone repairers do that and i think it just shows that youre a human too =)
Yes the hydrophobic coating is pretty, but I still wish Samsung included it in this Z Flip because while I appreciate their confidence in the phone, water can fine its way inside regardless of how water resistant the device is.
This channel is not just the epitome of tech youtube, but youtube in general. The information shared, endless creativity and top notch dedication really makes me feel guilty for watching this for free. Every video is fantastic, thank you
@@PhoneRepairGuru your the one who make fantastic video so I have to say thank you 😀😃 can I get a shout out in a video please? Because I want subscribers and be a good TH-camr like you please please
The improvements are relative. Most people just use the phone while they get the updates, and since on of those phones have doubled amount of time in support, they also can bring less improvements with that (actually it's the same in long term, they just don't need to sell the same thing multiple times, like 120Hz v1 and 120Hz copied v2 etc). Just check the current active amount of phone and the yearly sales for each. Apple covering 6 years of sales with the active users, but Android only covering 2,5 years. Isn't this close to the max support time? This is the time period when they are need to bring enough upgrades.
A tip with dealing with the magnets in the flips and folds is to put a finger over the magnet, also if you didn't know on most Samsungs the front camera is super glued in, I always take a dental pick and scrape out the glue then try to remove the camera
LOL! At first I bursted laughing when u were struggling to unscrew the Z Flip due to the Magnets getting in your way, and then 2nd, u just said that's one of the cutest battery you've seen in your life and u never thought u would be calling a battery cute and then started playing a goofy good music XD Great video as always, and I rarely comment on your contents, I'm just a silent subscriber viewer.
I just realised after a day of watching this that of course the screen is more prone to damage when it's BENDABLE. Normal gorrila glass cannot be applied or it'll just crack when folded.
Personally as a reply to your story, I havent watched the video yet but ur contents great long or short, Dont question it every one is different at the end of the day, Like i know i unsubscribe when certain people have big egos, So what makes me wonder is maybe people unsub from those who dont have one too
i actually have one and it is durable i have mine fall down from table or out of pocket like 40 times atleast and still looks like new, has a bit of side scratches
Yeah it sucks your nails make dents in the screen but it's like self-healing it will go away in a day that's the nice thing about soft OLED displays with a plastic cover they're actually harder to scratch but they are easier to puncture
I've never understood people saying the fingernails damage the screen because I've just mine for over a year and there's no 'finger nail' marks or anything. I simply don't intend to dig my fingernail hard into the screen nor do I with a regular phone.
Can you try repairing the "nail prints" with heat? Perhaps it gets repaired, such as it happens with hidrogel protectors Heat it, and it's supposed to "repair"
couldn't wait for jerryrig to open up this phone but i wanted to see that hinge. i get it, this phone's TOO expensive. guess I'll be waiting a little more to see that. anyways, fun video as always.
I hope at some point they make a fan edition of the z flip. I like the design but would be willing to give up a lot of frivolous features for a better price point
I know we’ve all been hyped for this concept, but it’s time to admit that it STINKS. Every other smartphone company has basically washed their hands, whereas Samsung keeps chucking out a flip phone every year without solving any of the issues. It’s impossible to repair, the screen is still extremely frail, it collects dust in between the hinge and it still costs as much as if not even more than a standard flagship. There’s no practical use for this kind of technology other than showing it off to your friends only for you to go back to your S22 Ultra/iPhone/whatever. Appreciate the effort, but it’s not gonna work
The only reason your nail can damage it is because it is a flip phone, it uses a flexible screen so it's much easier to damage. Using harder glass won't work for flexibility ig
When you create glass that is strong enough to literally fold in half and not break or shatter and doesn't get scratches easily, patten it and shell it out for millions, possibly billions and allow other companies to use that innovative technology......
If you do get this phone, I really recommend getting Samsung Care +... Repairing these are extremely pricey. Hope you guys enjoyed this one!

Hello @@PhoneRepairGuru
Doing the hard work for all the consumers. Cheers mate!
I question how much protection a case that is actually 2 parts could provide for this… great vid as always tho, waiting for the iPhone 14 teardown
I have the flip 3 and I feel like my case has pretty decent protection.
It's better than nothing.
I have a flip 3 and the case i bought completely scratched up the phone and it looks horrible and has these streak marks too

I love sitting down and enjoying these vids, keep up the good work!
Thank you! :)
Thank you Chris. I really appreciate it and that was exactly what I was trying to do. No fuss and helping people get on with what they need
Looking forward to the iPhone 14 teardown and testing any new anti repair methods within the phones.
I learned my lesson when I bought the flip3, SUCH A FRAGILE SCREEN

6:15 "These minor improvements just aren't enough"
This will never not seem a bit hypocritical coming from Apple users
I criticize apple more than anyone tho
The fact he owns an iphone doesnt make his statement hypocritical. He would have had to compliment an iphones minor improvements.
The improvements are relative. Most people just use the phone while they get the updates, and since on of those phones have doubled amount of time in support, they also can bring less improvements with that (actually it's the same in long term, they just don't need to sell the same thing multiple times, like 120Hz v1 and 120Hz copied v2 etc).

Awesome video thanks
Dude it's sick. I wish I could have this phone.

I wouldn't ever want a folding phone but if i had to i would have this one
Huawei made one and its better
i havent even warched the full video but i know its nice
remember that samsung allied with ifixit and now has its own repair service, they probably already have the front camera there
Oh well, that front camera part is RIP.
Hopefully you'll get the replacement soon ;)
