Samsung is about to launch the Galaxy Fold in the US, and we’ve already warned you multiple times that it’s a not a great idea to spend $2,000 on the first-gen foldable. Sure, Samsung fixed some of the flaws that affected the review units, but the handset is far from close to being as durable as a traditional smartphone.
As we learned from a recent durability test, the Fold has two issues you should be aware of. First of all, dust, sand, and any other tiny particles can get into the phone and remain stuck inside the hinge. But the more important issue concerns the delicate screen, which is easy to scratch and pierce. Once the screen is destroyed, you’ll have to replace it, and now we know just how much these replacements will cost consumers.
