you had SAME fold for 5 years without issue?

Anyone else have fold experience?
Had fold 3 for 2 years no issue. Don't listen to losers who whine about fold having issues, they probably can't afford one. Not saying it's the best phone out there but if you want a phone that folds into tablets it's great. Ooo and forgot to mention I had no case and dropped my fold 3 more than a dozen time. Seriously its a solid phone.

I've had my Fold 2 since 2020 and haven't had a single problem. Now I will say I'm a techie and tend to take great care of my tech (not a single scratch on mine) so I'm far from the average user. But I would think that if you're considering the fold series, then mostly likely you aren't the average user as well. I love this phone and can't go back but I will say it isn't for everyone 🤷🏾 ♂️

I had a fold 3 for 14 months. In the 12 month the screen protector where the fold is bubbled a little and I just pushed it down from time to time. On the 14month a 1/4 black dot appeared on the fold. I had very little use on this phone being tht it was my second phone. It sat at home 90% of the time. I took the phone to Samsung store and one of the mangers said the f3 was known to have screen separation issues. They offered me a trade in for a f4 open box for for 865 which I had to take before the dot grew in size. Best buy would not take it as a trade in because of the screen. I took the trade as I didn't want my f3 to be a valueless brick with view less screen months later. The F4 has a much better battery and is still running good. I do take really good care of my phones. My last phone was a note8 which didn't have a single scratch or drop. I did buy the samsung care this time for the f4. For anyone jumping into the Fold world, it takes time getting used to thick and heavier phone but the screen is just a joy to work with as your close to carrying a tablet in your pocket. How is everyone accessing these edu deals. You have to have a .edu email account right?

Quote from SKSolid :
For those trading in the fold 3, do any of you have small micro creases down the vertical.
I was previously trading my phone in every year with Samsung, but on the Fold 4 I just didn't see the point thinking I'd wait another year. Halfway through year 2, the inner screen protector began bubbling up, which I had replaced. Then a few months later, i started noticing small micro creases in the middle. The size, appearance, and location of these creases are such that it's obvious they are not a result of something like dropping or impact to the phone. It's pretty obvious these are a result of normal use or wear from the continuous action of opening and closing the phone continuously. Since then the micro creases have slowly been getting worse.
After the Fold 2, and not having noticed issues with my Fold 3 in the first year, I had thought the big durability issues were a thing of the past. Had I known they were not, I would have reconsidered upgrading with the Fold 4, despite the changes being so iterative, or perhaps back to the main s22 lineup. By the time the Fold 5 came around, I couldn't trade in because I was worried about being rejected.
However, since then I've seen some posts saying they were able to get full trade-in value, and it seems unfair that I would be denied tradein value based on a durability issue resulting from doing the very thing it was designed and advertised to do and nothing else, Fold. I could probably make a strong argument that this is normal wear and tear, but the exact tradein requirements says no damage beyond normal wear, or cracks.
Any thoughts? Should I risk a tradein? Has everyone else with a Fold 3 since launch not had issues? I would say I've probably unfolded the device on the upper side of the average number of times, but I'm not rough with my device, have always had them cased, and have never dropped it.
My entire family of 4 has fold 3, at this point for 2 years. 1 of the phones had inner screen protector replaced, 2 of the phones had inner screen protector removed. 1 phone's inner screen protector is coming up, so will probably need to be either taken off or replaced. The one which the screen protector was replaced developed dead pixel couple of days after replacement and U-break-I-fix place (authorized samsung repair center which replaced the screen protector) replaced the screen for free. So, so far, no issues with the phone.

So, anecdotally, for my experience with 4 Fold 3's, no real issues with screen and I probably unfold my screen like 15-20 times a day and my kids probably does even MORE than me.

I have z fold 4 since aug 2022. Amazing phone but it ridiculously doesn't hold its value! I see z fold 3 for 200 300 everywhere! So why asking 1800 for a phone that depreciates faster than speed of light?

This offer would give me a $200 trade in credit for my Note 8 with a cracked screen (versus $11 through Verizon) on the Flip. Are these types of credits common for Samsung? I am wondering if I should jump on this or can I wait until Black Friday. Thank you for any advice
