'The wobble is so annoying': one Galaxy Z Fold 8 user has resorted to an extreme fix to ensure their foldable lies perfectly flat
Someone has hacked off the cameras on their Galaxy Z Fold 8 just so the handset lies flat on a surface.
A Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 owner has resorted to an extreme fix to ensure their foldable device lies perfectly flat, according to a post on Reddit. The user decided to cut off the rear camera module, leaving only the selfie camera functional. The hack, performed with a razor blade, resulted in a flat-looking phone, according to the user.
The decision to remove the camera module came from the annoyance of the camera bump on the foldable device, which the user never utilized. The post sparked mixed reactions on Reddit, with some expressing disbelief and others praising the tech hack. The Galaxy Z Fold 8 was launched on July 22, with a starting price of $1,899 / £1,699 / AU$2,699.
