Isn’t this the same controlled environment that Apple tested theirs? What happened when folding it open and closed after putting in and out of pockets, bags, purses, you know- actual use. It appears that through standard use and not controlled settings that the screen cracks, so….

The fact that it hasn’t cracked yet and hasn’t broke, just tells me that not all of them are faulty and with some time and some polishing this phone could be great. I believe the next version of this phone it’s gonna be good

5.5 folds per hour over the course of 3 years. Definitely passable

Well, it makes a noticeable crease barely, but then again, that is over 100 thousand open and close events. I don’t know how long that represents in the real world, but I could see a crease but it looks very faint, which seems to me like it’s doing pretty darn good. I can’t really think of anything else you could fold that many times and not have something show up other than maybe a cotton sheet or something like that, and on that I am just guessing or assuming; it could also create some kind of physical issue.
