When Samsung went on its apology tour for the Galaxy Fold, it claimed the device could outlast 200,000 folds, meant to estimate about five years of use. It was supposed to helpe assure its re-released Fold would be able to stand the test of time. But the company probably didn’t think anyone would go through the trouble of actually testing the device for that many folds.
Luckily for us, that’s exactly what CNET and SquareTrade did, the latter which built a machine to fold the phone in rapid succession.
