Update: August 5, 2025 (10:14 PM ET): The Galaxy Z Fold 7 has now crossed 180,000 manual folds. The YouTuber stopped folding and unfolding the device to report on its condition at 175,000 folds, and it looks like the speaker of the phone is no longer functioning. However, the display, hinge, and everything else remains intact. The YouTuber also shared some noteworthy findings along the way. Between 6,000 and 10,000 folds, the YouTuber reported that the Galaxy Z Fold 7 experienced a reboot error. At around 46,000 folds, a creaking sound began to emerge from the hinge. After 75,000 folds, an unidentified liquid was seen seeping from the hinge area. Despite these issues, the device showed no dead pixels on the inner display or any other problems.
