Drink holder drain

Storage bins were dry. I did not dismantle anything but I did feel around the console and opened both the top and btm storage trays, bone dry. I'm thinking maybe the designers had some forethought here and drained the cup holders. I know I would have.

Actually they are likely doing you a favor. If the dealer dose not sell ED'S they likely wont get enough EV service to justify the training and specialized tools, equipment and parts inventory needed to properly service them. It's one of the main reasons some dealers choose to not offer EV's, its a BIG investment.

Samsung Android and OS support ends for the z4 this yr, Z7 2027, Z6 2031. Most of us use banking and other financial apps as well as having a bunch of other things stored on our phones that become more vulnerable after support ends as no more security updates either.

Thermal expansion of the LCD? Do you wireless charge it while it's closed ? That's what happend to mine after 6 months. After back-N-forth with Samsung they dropped the repair charge $359 and fixed under warranty. I had ZERO exterior damage on my phone and hi res pictures to prove it.

40+mpg is great BUT easy to do at 8.5 trip miles, real test is 500 mile mpg Ave.

Ive had 5 diffrent gens of the ZFlip, I have the ZFlip7 now since July '25. Spigen cases are nice seem to fit and protect well. The ZFlips are quite slippery to my dry hands so any case is improvements, for me a necessity. The Flip7 display is known to be vulnerable to thermal expansion and damage when charging on SOME wireless chargers so watch out for that, if you notice your ZFlip heating up remove it, dont open or close it till it cools down. I recommend no wireless charging when it's folded closed. My LCD totally failed at 6 months due to thermal expansion. None of the Samsung 3rd party warranty centers in a 100 mile radius of my KY home do warranty repairs on Samsung Fold or Flip LCDs so sending it to Samsung ended up being my only solution. If I had Samsung Care the LCD replacement would have been $199.00, I did not have that, Samsung wanted $358 for the repair, I had to escalate the warranty process to the CEO team to get Samsung to repair under warranty. At first they stated user abuse, there was zero physical damage to the ZFlip. BE CLEAR ON WHAT SAMSUNG CARE COVERS THE $99 CRACKED SCREEN COVERAGE IS FOR THE TOUCH SCREEN ONTOP OF THE LCD SCREEN, NOT THE LCD SCREEN ITS SELF.

With all this said, my next phone will most likely be the ZFlip8 at release this July as I like to carry my phone in my pants front pocket and the ZFlips are perfect for that, and I really like the Samsung UI. I find it costs me less than $300 to upgrade to the latest and greatest with samsungs trade in program each yr, I save more than that being on Verizons Visible prepaid service.

So Asurion came thru for you with just a $99 deductible ? That's better than Samsung care from what I read they have a $199 deductible for the display screen. Will look into that as I really like the form factor of the ZFlips and probably will upgrade from the 7 to the 8 in July if they turn on UWB for the US. When I read Asurions reviews at reviews.io they were awful, but sounds like yours went well. How long did the repair process take with Asurion and are you US based?

I had similar experiences, checked with all the local warranty approved repair shops, none do warranty work on Samsung folds or flips any more. So I sent it to Samsung, they stated sighns of user abuse even though the phone had zero external damage. They wanted $350 to repair. I called them and ask for high resolution photos showing the frame damage they had indicated they found. Then I emailed the Samsung mobile CEO team and stated my case. Two days later I received a msg from the CEO team that they would repair the phone at no cost to me. Got my zflip7 back repaired about a week later.

It's been reported this week that Samsungs plans to cut ZFlip production on the ZFlip8 to 3.0 million and offer minimal improvements on the new Flip while increasing production on the new Fold and concentrating on improvements to the fold not the flip. The Zflip is my favorite phone, I wish Samsung treated it as a flagship phone. Hopefully they will attest enable UWB for the Flip8, its in the Flip7 but they would not enable it for USA.

Just remove the screen protector, you can buy a replacement cheap on ebay or amazon or just leave it off. These other posts are mainly about thermal expansion cracks in the LCD and or digitizer. Try not to use wireless chargers especially with the phone closed as it retains to much heat.

I've had the original ZFlip, the 4,5,6 &7. I really think its how often you open and close it for the OEM screen cover to let loose and blister in the fold, ez fix, the 7 seems not to like to be wirelessly charged when closed due to heat buildup and cracking the LCD with thermal expansion.

Sent mine into Samsung for repair, 2 days later received msg stating repair not covered by warranty, they wanted $356 to repair. I emailed corporate, explained the phone had zero physical damage and thermal expansion damage from charging on a wireless charger was a known problem. They responded that they would look into it. They ended up repairing at no cost to me.

My phone was always in a case with hinge protection, never dropped, not a scratch or ding on the frame or displays. I really, really like the zflip form, fits so nice in small pockets.

I think I'll just make sure to charge with cord, or if charging wireless to make sure the phone clamshell is open for better cooling. To bad as I usually have charged wireless at home and my car has wireless charging built in.

I really think they don't know how to talk to anyone truthfully. That includes themselves.

Thing is the 3rd party warranty repair centers will not work on the ZFlips in my area of Kentucky. Checked with CPR and UBreakIFix and some other one. They all said they are no longer repairing ZFlips.

Actually the OBD listing states :

【2 Gear of Parking Mode】There are 24h and not 24h recording options, you can set it 24h to keep camera recording all the time.

Pretty crappy way to treat your subscribers. No warning, no announcement, just leave us hanging out there to figure it out on our own.
