The Thinnest Folding Phone has a Titanium Problem...

This time around Oppo decided to 3D print their hinge out of some Titanium. Which left a weak point in the phones frame. The Oppo Find N5 does not survive the bend test.

JerryRig: Can I borrow your phone?

Me: No

"Scratches at a level 2, with deeper groves at a level 3" feels so wrong 😭

Fun fact: This phone is thinner than the camera frame of the Nothing 3a Pro

You can see that the horizontal line of dead pixels appears with the black dot in the middle of the screen - indicating that there was probably small stone or dust left in that spot, which was forced into the screen on the bend test.

Still a very cool review!

Nice review. The phone is beautiful... er, was.

1:38 yes you should do the drop tests as well. We all drop our phones 😁

[awhite]

Drop tests are a much better test of a real world experience than burning the screen with a lighter, for sure.

[alsethend]

Yes, if a phone survives the bend test it should be subject to a *scientific* 4ft drop test

I drop my phone all the time, so drop tests would be very helpful. I was actually surprised when I thought about and realize you don’t do drop tests already, it seems so obvious. As others have said, dropping your phone is much more realistic a test than holding a lighter up to it and pouring sand into it

I'm sorry for your Jerry. Machines won't forget you when judgement day comes

I'm not sure if I speak for everyone, but I can say with certainty that you have fulfilled my desire to see what's inside smartphones and see what makes them work, how they work. Your work is atypical (in a good way) and interesting. I'm looking forward to seeing what else you test. Big hug from Brazil.

milling the spine out of titanium would not even be considered in this case. The feasibility of milling a thin long part out of titanium like that would not be fun for manufacturing. 3d printing it would most likely be 100x faster and 20x cheaper

1:45 I don’t believe in ghosts, but every time Jerry drags that blade across a phone’s edges, I swear I can hear my soul screaming in the distance🙃🙃

[EdenOfTheGarden]

I think a drop test would be cool to see, definitely the way my phone takes the most of a beating over the years

[puzzak]

You definitely should calculate how much % of the thickness of the phone your deeper grooves are getting, with how thin these things are getting

[bobbyyliight]

I always get goosebumps when he scratches the metals 😂 nails on a chalk board!!! Lol. Nice vid Jerryyyy

[AsherBehrns]

I would love it if you did drop tests in your videos, as dropping your phone is probably the most common way people break their phones.

Am I the only one who thinks that the only reason the screen died on the unfolded bend test was because he had filled the hinge with dust and rocks first and they pushed against the folding screen from the inside upon bending?

There's a black dot right in the middle and the vertical and horizontal dead lines run directly from it. Any large debris that gets in the hinge can very easily be felt under the screen when reopened and a small rock there is going to push right into the folding screen when bent in that way.

I wouldn't mind seeing this redone BEFORE the dust test is done to see if it's repeated.

10:10 4.55v battery, it may have a lot of capacity for it's size, but if you charge it to 100% everyday, it will wear fast with that voltage.

3:21 "protection is always a good thing" bro knows what he is doing here 😭
