Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 Sets New Durability Benchmark with 500,000 Folds Certification

Samsung has officially raised the bar for foldable phone durability with the launch of the Galaxy Z Fold7—its thinnest and most durable foldable yet.

According to a certification from Bureau Veritas, the Galaxy Z Fold7's foldable display has been tested to withstand over 500,000 folds, a significant leap from the 200,000 folds achieved by its predecessor. That’s an 85% improvement, simulating over 10 years of use at 100 folds per day, or 6+ years of heavy use at 200 folds daily.

What makes the Fold7 so durable?

Samsung's engineering upgrades include:

A 50% thicker Ultra Thin Glass layer on the inner display

A new high-elastic adhesive that improves screen recovery by 4x

A flattening structure to evenly distribute shock

A high-strength titanium plate reinforcing the display layer

Despite these improvements, the Galaxy Z Fold7 is thinner and lighter than its predecessor, showing that durability doesn’t have to come at the cost of portability.

Galaxy Z Fold7 Pricing:

12GB RAM + 256GB storage – $1,999.99

12GB RAM + 512GB storage – $1,999.99

Samsung continues to lead the foldable phone market by proving that thinner devices can also be built to last.
