Dissection of Galaxy Z Fold revealed 5 layers of shock absorption + video

Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Z Fold 5 about a month ago, and this product did not change much from last year. However, this new phone now has a new hinge that eliminates the gap between the displays when closed, and uses a shock-absorbing layer on the inner folding screen itself. A famous YouTuber has looked for this layer in the autopsy of this device.

Previously, we have seen the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 in a test video. Now the famous YouTube channel JerryRigEverything He went to the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and dissected the phone to find the shock-absorbing layer on its internal display.

As you can see in the video below, the owner of this YouTube channel, whose name is “Zack”, faces many challenges in dissecting the new Samsung phone. Early in the video, he destroys the pixels and destroys the screen by applying pressure to the screen.

Shock dispersion layer under the Galaxy Z Fold 5 display

When the display panel is removed, underneath we can see a layer of foam in the form of small circles. Although at first it doesn’t appear that this layer is the same as the shock absorption layer announced by Samsung, when the different layers of the screen are separated and no different layer is visible than the Galaxy Z Fold 4, it can only be concluded that the same foams are used for shock dispersion are considered.

The JerryRigEverything channel continues to open up other parts of the phone, and it’s nice to see that changing the battery on the Galaxy Z Fold 5 can be done easily. Zack finally reaches the hinge of this product, which this year with its optimizations allows there to be no gaps between the two sides of the internal display of this phone in the closed state.
