It’s so prone to cracking along the fold, though. You should either get the extended warranty or treat the phone as disposable, because it will likely not last more than a couple of years.
Still have my Fold 3 which I got 2 years ago, it’s definitely more fragile so if you’re prone to dropping your phone maybe don’t get it but it’s not as fragile as people make it seem. It’s not for everyone for sure but damn is it convenient and useful.

Every single person who I’ve known or seen with a foldable Samsung has a prominent fold (enough to lift the top layer of the screen) or crack.
The tech just isn’t there yet.
That’s not a screen layer, that’s the screen protector. You can remove it. It’s just some plastic
Samsung advise not to remove the screen protector, ironically because doing so can damage the screen.
Instead they suggest you have them do it, first one is free
Oh sure, but it’s just a screen protector. I remove them from every phone. And a foldable naturally protects the screen anyway.
All they have to do is say the magic word: “Cosmetic”

My roommate drops his Fold almost daily onto hardwood and tile since he got it a year or two ago. It hasn’t broken once. I’m honestly astonished
