So many people treat their phone like shit and complain it broke
To be fair this may not apply to everyone, since some really do get defective phones.
But there are so many people who uses flip/fold phones so wrong and only thing they think that will damage their phone is dropping.
- Literally slamming their phones shut
- Opening and closing by holding the screen as lever
- Smashing screen with their fingers as if the screen is flat hard glass when playing games/texting
- and so many other reasons
and they say "I never dropped my phone!"
I used Flip 1, 3, 4, 5 (still going since launch) and Fold 3, 4, 5 (still going since launch as well) - used 2 of them 1 for work 1 for personal.
Never has any of my flips and folds have failed on me and they are all purchased from resellers - never had any "new" purchase from Samsung. Amazing thing is, Flip 3 had bleeding LCD and pixel damage but never grew or made the screen fail so for me, myth of bleeding LCD growing doesn't apply.
SO for those who are asking "Should I get flip or fold? I'm scared it'll break", I say go for it. Unless you treat it like shit, the chances of it breaking is very very minimal.
