Samsung Fold 8 Hinge Struggles Exposed | Tech News
Description
Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold8 just got a brutal repairability score of 4/10 from iFixit — and the hinge is to blame. With an IP48 rating, it’s not fully dustproof, letting grit sneak into the hinge and cause crunching noises and opening issues. Worse, Samsung treats the hinge and inner screen as one replaceable unit, making repairs complex and costly. This isn’t new for Samsung foldables, but rivals like Google and Honor now offer full IP6X dust resistance — leaving Samsung behind in protecting its premium folding tech from everyday dirt.
