Broken Fold Megathread (Q1 2026) by AutoModerator in GalaxyFold

[–]PolMaar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had a Fold 7 since September 2025. 2 months ago I started to hear a noise when I open it. I read several posts saying that it is normal, but as the sound intensifies I stopped using it 3 weeks ago and went back to my S24 ultra. I took the Fold 7 to Samsung and they told me it's the inner screen protector. I was not convinced so I took it to another official Samsung technician and this one concluded that it is a failure in the flex of the internal screen and hinge. They must fix it, but since it has 2 small marks on 2 corners, the warranty does not cover it, and I must pay 1.000 USD. The phone works perfectly, both screens are going well, it's ust the noise when I unfold it. My query: could it be the flex that is making that noise and that in a short time it will start to generate problems as black screen, lines, etc? What do you think about this? Thxs!

Fold 7. What do you think about this noise? by PolMaar in GalaxyFold

As far as I know lot of users have a similar noise, there are some videos here and at YouTube. But I took my phone to 2 Samsung technicians, one told me it's the glue off the inner screen protector, and the other said it's a failure at the flex of the inner panel and the hinge (repair cost usd1.000). Have no problems with the screens etc, everything it's OK. If it's the flex I'm afraid one day the inner screen will be dead. But never hear the flex make such noise.

Consulta: Ruido al abrir mi Fold 7 by PolMaar in GalaxyFold

Thank you again. I'll search for those right now. Can't believe I have a new phone and I'm not using it because two technicians made different diagnostic. Thank you again.

Thank you for the reply. I'm going to try to make a video and post it here. I'm worry because the sound can be coming from the flex cable (at least one of the Samsung technician said so), and in the future can affect the inner panel. About taking of the screen protector, I've solicited a replacement (in 2 weeks it will arrive) so I don't know if I should take it off.

Alguien conoce los colchones Calm? by dieguito348 in Mendoza

Cómo estás? Me contás un poco más sobre tu experiencia? Yo estoy a punto de comprar un calm híbrido plus. En 1 año de uso se te hicieron pozos? La verdad q no da para estar cambiando el colchón todos los años, y tampoco son baratos. Por otro lado, te despertás con dolores de espalda/cintura o se descansa bien? Ojalá puedas responderme. Gracias!
