The Samsung Galaxy break after 24 hours due to an apparent defect in the hinge

All the reviews of the Samsung Galaxy Fold report that the terminal in less than 24 hours breaks because the hinge and Samsung shuts up for an answer.

The insistence on developing folding smartphones by Samsung seems to be not going quite well. The company has invested a lot of money in promoting the Galaxy Fold with promotional videos on large YouTube channels. This terminal costs a whopping 2.000 euros and has a major problem: its durability. Galaxy Fold just after a day of use it already begins to deteriorate and break.

Galaxy Fold begin to break after one day of use

The specialized medium The Verge shows an image of the Galaxy Fold that they have for review with the broken OLED screen. Just one day of use and testing of this terminal and it is already broken. The media indicates that this could be due to a manufacturing defect in the terminal's central hinge. It is seen that this when closing it presses the screen and causes it to break.

The Verge says they have treated it with great care and that it has made normal use. The editor stands out that they have placed the terminal on a piece of clay where it usually supports the terminals for photo and video sessions. As he explains, a small piece of clay could have been cast in the area of ​​the hinge, although he cannot confirm it. In case some small clay residue has been cast, it would make it clear that the terminal is a chestnut. Clearly this terminal will not support the day to day, as dust and dirt sneak into the terminals regularly. We don't even want to imagine taking it to the beach and having a 2.000 euro smartphone break for a grain of sand.

All Galaxy Folds are broken by looking at them

Subsequently, other editors from other media have also reported defects in their terminals. A Bloomberg editor has also uploaded images of the broken Fold. Hours later he highlighted that the screen had been completely broken and no image could be seen.

CNBC's Steve Kovach has been considerably tougher and has said that it is implausible that a 2.000 euro terminal is worse than an 'early adopter' device. Samsung would not have carried out the quality tests necessary to put the terminal on the market. The real world is far from a watertight laboratory with particle filtering.

The screen on my Galaxy Fold review unit is completely broken and unusable just two days in. Hard to know if this is widespread or not. pic.twitter.com/G0OHj3DQHw

Marques Brownlee, a well-known YouTuber with over 8 million subs, has also shown the broken fold. The terminal has not lasted 24 hours. JerryRigEverything, another YouTuber with 3.5 million subs, complained that Samsung did not send him the terminal. In a sarcastic tone he has said that he understands the reason.

Samsung has not given the slightest reason why the Galaxy Folds are breaking. The media have even asked them and shut up for an answer. It is pathetic that the company launches a 2.000 euro terminal that does not last 24 hours. What a scam.

PSA: There's a layer that appears to be a screen protector on the Galaxy Fold's display. It's NOT a screen protector. Do NOT remove it.

I got this far peeling it off before the display brushed and blacked out. Started over with a replacement. pic.twitter.com/ZhEG2Bqulr
