>A popular tech durability expert has declared Google’s new Pixel 10 Pro Fold the weakest foldable smartphone he has ever tested after the device caught fire during a routine bend test, marking the first battery explosion in his decade-long career of testing smartphones. Zack Nelson, the man behind the JerryRigEverything channel, which has nearly 10 million subscribers on YouTube, posted a video on Tuesday showing the $1,799 device snapping at its antenna lines before its battery began smoking heavily enough to trigger a fire alarm in his workspace. The explosion occurred when Nelson attempted to straighten the phone after it had already fractured during the bend test, causing the battery layers to pinch together and short circuit.
