Frequently asked questions regarding the Galaxy Z Flip5 and Fold5 hinge technology

Although the new hinge technology is complex and includes many parts, it is meticulously engineered to have adequate space for motion and shock absorption to ensure product durability. As a result, there may be minor deviations or movement that create a difference in frame height and alignment.

The Galaxy Z Flip5 may feel less rigid when opened or partially folded in comparison to previous Z-series devices. This is due to the new Flex hinge technology’s ability to create a seamless motion when opening and closing the foldable device.

As the device is folded, the synchronised movement of the metal hinge components might produce a sensation of snagging or clicking due to friction. Additionally, the flexible nature of certain components, like the flexible displays, can introduce slight resistance during movement. Rest assured, these sensations are natural and not indicative of a defect.
