The crease doesn’t matter. Had a fold 3 for almost 3 years, and the crease has never bothered me. You dont see it when using the devices. you do from other angles, but even then, it’s dependant on external light. I have never found a situation where the crease being there has ever been a problem. And I challenge you to give me a good example.

This is the one thing people say that I feel is mostly rooted in a form of propaganda, or like a rumour if that makes sense. You have been told about the crease and it was made to sound bad you personally believe the crease would be bad and it all joins up to form a strange, baseless bias that the crease is bad. You have admitted yourself that you dont own one, so I can safely assume you haven’t held one for long enough to realise that the crease wouldn’t bother you if you had one of these phones.

Also, like I said, I’ve had mine for almost 3 years and it’s still going strong. I replaced the screen protector once because I accidentally scratched it but I did that myself with a £15 kit I got on amazon. So the lifespan is fine. Your bias is unfounded. You should use one as a daily driver for a bit and than review your opinion.

Edit. Inb4 “you’re butthurt”. Idc. I dont think I am, because I’m just arguing the side of someone who has one, but I dont mind if you wanna think im just angry cause you insulted my choice to buy one. I know from personal experience the only real downside to this phone is the narrow outer screen and that only really bothers me when I’m watching video, but then why would I use the outer screen for that? For general use that screen is fine.
