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!

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 😢

Exactly same problem here. I took great care of it just like you did. Center started peeling off. Then the black line! after 19 months.. Samgsung customer service did not help. I'm going to file a complaint to consumer protection services. DO NOT BUY ANY OF THE SAMSUNG FOLDED PHONES!

How do I take part in the class action lawsuit? I have contacted Samsung twice with no luck on repairing my inner screen. It looks like Samsung would own up to the fact that they created and sold a faulty unworkable device.

Samsung Z Fold 4 is a piece of shit!!!

Just a bullshit product from rog don't buy it's not worth 400$

Bullshit 8gb system mem 8 gb. Vram and sd card doesn't even work such bullshit for 400$ of garbage

I bought fold 4 and all of a sudden the display has gone. Its a waste of money

I have almost the same issue except mine is the two ribbon cables behind the inner sceeen failed effecting wifi/Bluetooth and shutting off when I close the phone Samsung said exact same thing replace screen .it sitting on coun till I do the job myself I guess

No it's not worth it Samsung blamed me saying I dropped it I argued with them and again my inside screen just broke I already paid 500 quid last time it happened I'm sick of it!

I've had the same problem exactly!

I own one,and the crease is getting worse after 14 months, and all my friends trashed theirs and said they were done buying the fold!

Never had a problem with a fold

So u hook up usb hub and just put SSD card in there

I have this problem. I spoke to Samsung UK, and they are going to repair my phone. My phone is just over 12 months old.

I got a same issue here. Samsung is really suck. Never buy any Samsung product. FK it

My phone inner screen shuts down when I watch RUclips

If you want your usb c port to be available you can also buy a micro sd card extension cable... they are very cheap...

I was planning to buy the fold 4 until i saw this..

Im thinking of going to the google pixel fold 9 because of the camera is way better than galaxy fold 5 and 6. Galaxy fold 6 camera no better than the galaxy fold 2

I have had a fold 2 and fold 4, usable life is 18 months - agree with this review, long term reliability is not there - great when new but no longevity

I bought insurance for mine from likewize. Screen failed. Sent for repair, no parts. They then sent me a new one for $169. So to all of you. Insure the puppy, it is worth the cost.

I have a z fold 4 around 2 years its inner screen was perfectly fine until the inner screen protector peels from middle and made a black dot, in my opinion the major cause behind this is screen protector, it cause a tight tension on screen in middle which leads in damage. So please its humble request to all fold users try to avoid using screen protector let it be free from tension. And mark my words it will work flawlessly without any damage or dead screen for long period of time, until you not accidently fall it.

Dont buy this phone...i started using this phone after 4 months i bought..i got the purple lines and inner screen damaged after 9 months of use.. 1 year warranty over.. samsung service centre charge $800 plus to repair this

22 months on my 4 and now same issue...ugh! Will just use the outside screen until......oh, $650 to replace inner screen!!

Same Happened with mine, had to pay 300$ for samsung care phone replacement 🥲

If u upgrade ssd n have old 512gb ssd ,You can get mini 2230 ssd enclosure type c and use ,spare 512gb ssd as a portable ssd drive,

The work around is getting Steam Deck OLED instead 😂

Please ,anyone who has any foldable phone and the screen protector start have bubbles, just peal it off ASAB , it is the problem that cause to break the inner screen !

Happend me twice on fold 3, fold 4. No more fold phone for me. It was fun it worked but wasted $4k on 2 phones

NEVER EVER BUY SAMSUNG FOLDABLE PHONE ...U WILL REGRET....

Want to join as well, faced the same issues as you did.

It’ll still fail. Problem isn’t heat it’s a capacitor that can’t handle the power being fed to it

I have had the same problem twice within one year. They gave me a refurbished phone under warranty the first time. When it happened again 4 months later i wanted a different phone that was not a fold. I still owed $700 on my fold 4 and Verizon wanted me to pay off the balance on a defective product to get a s24 ultra, i didn't pay. After hours of talking to different people on the phone I received a credit that may or may not get approved only after I purchased a new s24 ultra without paying the balance on my old phone, it will come in the mail. Verizon has the worst customer service on the planet because they know your basically trapped so good luck if you have a fold that craps out more than once while your still paying it off. Stay away from any fold product unless you don't care about getting a refurbished fold phone every 4 months.

The same thing has happened to my Z fold 4. A story identical to yours down to the last bit. Didn't use the screen much in the 1 year I have had it, didn't drop it, a black line developed in the screen all of a sudden totally identical to yours and the screen stopped working

Layer, you dropped. I had 3 of them and best ever

I have the same problem with my fold 4 i like almost everything about the phone except for that problem

Got my fold4 as part of the original launch in fall 21. Has worked flawlessly until yesterday, when I found I could no longer open the screen fully. Sometime today I was watching YT full screen but closed the phone to take to another room. When I opened back up, I had a black line down the screen and limited responsiveness. NO CRACK. Now it still displays, but is unresponsive to touch, leaving me with a smaller screen than my old samsung note that was still working when I traded it in - cracked glass and was very close to just folding in half after 6 1/2 years of hard use. So glad to find this and the class action suit. I planned to keep this phone for at least 5 years - it didn't make it 3.

You really really should have removed the screen protector as SOON AS YOU SAW it start to peel. It would have saved the internal screen. I removed mine, as soon as i saw it peel, which was after about 18 months ( i used it as a 2nd phone) and it still like new now. No issues.

You need to remove the inner screen protector the moment it starts peeling in the middle. This will cause a pinch when folding the screen causing it to fail.

Got mine and working fine

Same thing happened to mine after a year, screen protector started bubbling down middle and upon opening it appears screen protector bubble lifted or damaged screen due to suction from screen protector. Just out of warranty, last time i buy a foldable.

The best option is... send it back to Asus and force them to redesign the motherboard and move the sd slot. If not, lawsuit.

I am not sure what happen to your fold phone, but mine been using 2 years of course with a care after i use it i always clean with small clothes i put inside my fold, and i am ex samsung user, the fold i use is Vivo X Fold gen 1, i never trust any samsung because in my country their services is really bad here, i remember last time my note 10+ due to their software update issue mostly people got bluetooth issue after update their software, even i still got 1 year warranty they ask me to buy new spen , they are not like other big company like sony wf-1000xm4 last time also got issue after update but Sony is kind they let me claim new one, thats i can tell you is real story its up to you to believe it or not, samsung nowsadays is terrible, they only care your money.

Индусы не знают, что если пленка слазит, то её надо или снимать или менять, от пыли, что попадает под пленку экран и умирает. Снял бы пленку экран был бы цел.

Same thing just happened to mine; it just broke out of nowhere and for no reason.

Same problem.

That's such a hilarious bodge. I can't believe owners aren't kicking up more of a fuss about this.

Same thing happened to my Galaxy fold 4 right after passed 1 year. very light use on big screen as unfolded . Haven't dropped and it always had case from samsung. suddenly screen gone bubbly in the inner middle and after 3 days gone black and spreaded and unresponsive. repair cost is 6-700 usd and Samsung customer support doesn't care. this should on recall or free replacement for another phone.
