According to the news of The Elec, Samsung is in the process of performing the durability test of the hinge to be used in the Galaxy Z Fold 5. The company will reportedly determine whether it can withstand the test by folding the new hinge 200,000 times. This is a remarkable increase over the Galaxy Z Fold 4’s limit.

The new hinge design is expected to offer several benefits, including better protection of the device’s screen against wear from constant folding. The Z Fold 5’s screens will line up when folded, and both screens will lean against each other, offering a smooth fold.
