It's the same as mine. A mini black dot appears on the crease. After several months, it has grown bigger. Many users reported the same issue on the Samsung forum. I don't think Samsung will ever honor screen replacement after Warranty Expires.

We got our z fold 4 on Oct 13 2024 for my wife and she has only used it a dozen times and the screen protector is already lifting in the middle. We didn't know to keep the phone in the open position. We will contact Samsung for a warranty claim. This phone is great but the screen protector is junk. My first thought upon seeing the screen up close was; No way will thing last.
@rejjie_DIYАй бұрын
Surprising that the screen protector lifted so quickly. Curious, did you happen to expose your phone to cold temperatures? Was the screen also damaged or just the screen protector? Best of luck on the warranty claim. Cheers

The entire screen inside of my Samsung Galaxy Zfold4 has broken away from the frame and you can actually see the inside of the phone itself!!!! And this fault has happened within a year!!! I now know how a mobile is made and I wish I didn't! The outside screen thankfully is still working. It is going to be collected tomorrow to repair or replace it because of insurance I also bought at the same time. So I am hopeful that the phone will be replaced. I would never buy this phone again, they simply do not have the ability to withstand being folded and the screen is way too narrow to type but seriously heavy to take photos anyway. So I would definitely say avoid buying this (or newer models) of this phone!!

Mine did the same thing literally a month after the 1 year warranty. Both Samsung and Bell Canada wouldn't cover it. I've had to use just the outer screen since then while trying to find solutions with them both. Now my phone plan is up, and Bell Mobility wants to add $1200 to my next bill (or fix the screen myself) because I had the return phone option plan. If there's a Canadian Class Action Lawsuit, I'm in!

@@Matt.Ram23 Sadly it appears the New York class action lawsuit was settled out of court from the best I can tell from the documentation. I have not seen a class action in Canada. I'm in the same boat as you. I ended up using my old Samsung s10 plus. Surprisingly it's performing quite well for me. Hope you're able to have some success. I'll be switching to a newer non foldable soon. Am considering fixing this phone for ~$800 cdn but am fearful of it breaking again.

Shameful companies like like Samsung will go down in history with zero legacy. They think just raking in billions in profit is all that matters.. Just wait. Deeds matter too. You know your shitty phones arnt worth and have the screen problem for sure. Not one owner of these phones has any satisfaction. Bought one for my wife was way over my budget, what a mistake.Atleast have the balls to stand up and repair them or offer the replacement screen cheaper so the customers arnt stuck, wtf has the world become 😢
@rejjie_DIY2 ай бұрын
@Quantdummy I agree with your comments. When we consumers spend upwards of $2K+ of our hard earned money and, in many cases, beyond our budget, it should be reasonable to have an expectation that these phones should last more than 12 to 18 months.

If your crease is getting worse, my advice (take it or leave it) is to replace the screen protector right away. That screen pressure caused by your crease is going to damage the screen. Yeah, I totally agree with your friends, this fold technology is finicky and not mature enough.
