Since I am a Flip user myself, i have some doubts about my phone. So many questions I really wanna ask and I know you are, too! So, why not put it all here and let the Admins and Galaxy Techs/Specialists answer us? 😊
I go first:
How true that it is not advisable to charge your Flip closed? 🤔 It should be wide open whenever you charge the phone to protect it from damaging the screen?
Thank you in advance to our lovely admins and specialist! 😍
This is actually a very good question. As an owner of a Fold4, I also get conflicting advice about charging. I guess the "charge unfolded" suggestion came from the idea that depending on your environment, the phone may get too hot while charging and overtime this would affect the inner screen protector.
What I personally do is whenever I'm in a cold room, I charge folded. If I'm in an area with room temperature or hotter, I charge unfolded.
Thank you for bringing up this topic here about how true it is that it is not advisable to charge the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip while closed, and it should be wide open whenever charging the phone in order to protect it from damaging the screen.
In addition to our dear Samsung members' replies, the proper way to charge your Samsung Galaxy Z Flip is to ensure that it is well placed on a flat surface, charging connectivity is good, away from direct sunlight or a heat source while it is closed or folded.
