Samsung foldable display first to get military-grade certificate
In the test, the foldable panel operated normally even after the exterior of the panel was frozen into 6mm-thick ice by spraying water in an environment of minus 10 degrees, and that state was maintained for 4 hours. There were no performance problems in a test in which the device endured an environment of -32 degrees Celsius and +63 degrees Celsius for two hours in a row, and repeated such sudden temperature changes three times over 12 hours.
After dropping devices equipped with Samsung’s foldable panel 26 times from waist height at various angles, the organization that Samsung Display engaged for the testing found “no problems with the product during external activities by rotating the product at a speed that would apply up to 10.5 times the force of gravity,” or the acceleration tests that the military does on components for planes and choppers.
