In a way, yes. But in another way, no.

It is a first gen device, but the screen came from samsung and has been developed for a long time. Galaxy folds don't break like this one does.

Apple made some bad choices in the design instead of building upon samsungs tried and tested design.

    Tell that to my buddy who has gone through 5 of them in as many years. I don’t understand why the phone insurance company hasn’t dropped him, he’s definitely getting the upside of that transaction.

    As i have said previously, broken folding phones cannot be blamed on bad hardware if the user is careless.

    And to be clear, i am not saying its impossible for them to break on their own. Of course they can, and do, but i am am saying if your friend has gone through five of them then you have to look at the lowest common denominator.

    You friend needs to take better care of their £2000 information rectangle.
