    Every time I look at the demo devices in a shop like media market or Saturn selling foldables, the screens of most devices are damaged. There are always cracks, discolorations or some kind of screen damage to these devices. If brand new demo pieces can’t last a few weeks, why would I bother to buy one, knowing it won’t last the usual 3 years of smartphone use?

      For sure those screens are more brittle, but also I can’t help but think that a lot of people abuse them on purpose, to see how easily they break, thus their condition doesn’t represent real-life wear and tear.
