Samsung: the Galaxy Fold will last over 200,000 folding cycles

Samsung Galaxy Fold, with its inside-folding 7.3" 1536x2152 foldable Infinity Flex AMOLED display, will start shipping in April 2019, for $2,000.

Consumers will undoubtedly be worried about the durability foldable devices. Samsung released the video above that shows how the Galaxy Fold hinge system withstands multiple folding cycles.

According to Samsung, the Galaxy Fold will last for at least 200,000 folds. If we assume 100 folds per day, this means over 2,000 days - or almost 5 and a half years - more than the usual smartphone lifetime.
