Samsung’s revised Galaxy Fold smartphone is out in the US. One day in and well, things aren’t looking so good.
Brian Heater with TechCrunch received a review unit directly from Samsung. After roughly 27 hours with the device, however, he noticed a “brightly colored, amorphous blob” in the center of the screen. That’s right, after just over one day with the new Galaxy Fold, the screen was already broken.
The damage to the review unit is minimal compared to what happened to the first wave of samples months ago, but it is damage nevertheless.
Heater surmises that pressing the display to close the device caused the damage. In its defense, Samsung warns against applying pressure to the screen. “Just use a light touch,” the company notes in its “Caring for your Galaxy Fold” video.

I will hope to get my Samsung Galaxy fold review done over the weekend.
