The excellent one is $1376, it's better to buy it new for $1599 with activation from Verizon (and cancellation) or $1614 unlocked without any activation from Samsung EDU/EPP
why is it better, if you can get it unlocked and even better if you are a total member, you get free warranty for 2 years?
The Samsung fold 1 and 2 required a built-in screen protector to reinforce the plastic folding screen. Since the Fold 3, and since most manufacturer's first versions of the folding phone, you no longer need the inbuilt screen protector at all. It's still recommended because folding screens are not as hardy or scratch-resistant as normal sapphire/gorilla glass screens, but a failing screen protector is not what's going to cause issues with your phone.

I'm months late but I'm here to say that's not how 'modern' folding phones work. And by 'modern', I mean made within the past 5+ years.<br />

That's not correct. On my fold phone dirt got into the area that was separating and ruined the screen.
Anyone using a Fold 3/4 or newer should replace or remove the screen protector as soon as you see it peeling in the middle. If you can keep the inner screen clean, the screen protector isn't necessary.
