Yes that's why I sold my Galaxy Fold already :s12:


Nice phone but dislike the "thickness" (not cool at all).


Wanting to buy Mate X but Carousell selling at 7K :eek:


So have to wait for Fold 2.

Anybody got this problem?

Been using fold since oct 2019 but recently the screen seem to appear 2 grease mark, looks like the battery heating up the screen? (Refer to attachment) it's not scratch or any damage as I don't press the screen to fold it.
I can use a microfiber cloth to wipe them off but when the battery warm up abit they reappear.
It's not serious but more like irritating just wondering anybody facing this problem.
Will samsung replace the screen foc as it's under warranty? Or do I need to pay for $200 screen replacement.

Already wipe clean a few times but it reappear at the same particular place when the battery start to warm up, even when I don’t touch the screen at all.
Hopefully it’s not a permanent design fault but just I’m unlucky.

I've been using my Fold since Sept at first launch, no such issue. I think if it gets worse, go to Samsung and have them look at it. You're the first here with this issue, so possibly yours a faulty set.

Go to SSC and demand free replacement of screen.


If they don't allow then quickly sell away quietly :s13:

It’s perfectly fine when I first got it no problem at all till last week I start to notice them appearing.
At first I tot is some oil mark and just wipe away with micro fibre cloth but it just came back after a while.
I don’t game much on this phone just daily normal usage like msging, Facebook, surf net and YouTube etc.

Now the problem is finding a spare phone to temporary use when going to service centre, not sure if I can go back to normal candy bar phone after using fold as daily driver.

Samsung may provide a spare phone to use temporarily when you send it to SSC.

The UAG case damage my front screen protector and back screen protector.

The behind one not so bad but the front one very bad. Visible at the camera one.
Once this corona virus die off I’m going to re paste the front one.

Glad I returned my UAG case and used the spigen for good.

The UAG inner case sharp sharp one I notice that’s why will scratch
