January 17, 2026, 12:08 AM EST. A user on Samsung's official forums reports that the Galaxy Z TriFold display fractured after about a month with no external impact. The left-most fold shows a line of white pixels and a panel death on part of the screen. Samsung reportedly offers a one-time 50% discount on display repairs, costing around 1.3 million won (~$900). The post notes no warranty coverage for this model and that the device was replaced after a store visit; translation suggests Samsung took the broken device for 'research.' The episode underscores durability concerns for foldables as insurance or an extended warranty may be prudent until wider availability of the TriFold, and warranty terms firm up.
