The famous YouTuber (Zach Nelson) Zach Nelson, Owner of the channel JerryRigEverything On YouTube, durability tests on a phone Samsung Galaxy Z Flip Previously released, like a scratch and bending test, it seems that the phone’s durability is not amazing, and that the Samsung Ultra Thin Glass screen does not provide a better durability advantage compared to the plastic screen, although it changes the shape and appearance of the screen.
The phone screen scratch test revealed that there were visible scratches by just choosing Level 2, while Level 3 managed to scratch the screen significantly, while Level 4 created a physical hole in the screen, and Nelson says: This screen is not scratch resistant in any way, and criticized Samsung for The device may be misleadingly marketed.
These results are similar to the results one will get when testing a plastic screen, such as those found in the Galaxy Fold and Motorola Razr, and this means that the screen can be scratched using a nail, which is not expected for a device marketed as equipped with a glass screen.
Customers looking to purchase the Galaxy Z Flip and hear the term ‘glass screen’ will likely expect similar durability to that of a regular smartphone with a glass screen, such as the Galaxy S20 lineup.
A Samsung spokesperson said: The Galaxy Z Flip features the Infinity Flex screen with Samsung’s Ultra Thin Glass to give it a stylish and distinctive look, and provide an immersive viewing experience, and Ultra Thin Glass technology differs from other leading Galaxy devices, as the screen must be handled with caution while folding it, as it has Galaxy Z Flip with a protective layer Ultra Thin Glass similar to Galaxy Fold.

Samsung plans to offer a screen replacement service for the Galaxy Z Flip as it did with the Galaxy Fold, and buyers can get a one-time replacement screen for $ 119, and it is also possible to get a dedicated screen protector for free once, which is not an option available for the Galaxy Fold phone.
It is reported that Samsung had previously announced the Galaxy Z Flip as the first clamshell foldable smartphone from Samsung, and unlike Motorola Razr, there was no delay in reaching the phone to consumers.
Although it is not a direct successor to the Galaxy Fold, the early impressions of the phone were positive, as many praised Samsung for providing high-end specifications and manufacturing quality, at a lower price than the Motorola Razr phone.
One of the reasons for praise was the use of the Samsung Ultra Thin Glass screen, which users assumed would make the phone more durable than the old foldable phones.
