Mishaal Rahman and FragmentedChicken are in South Korea for Samsung Unpacked!

It’s weird with time zones but they’ll be on for the next hour or so. They’re juggling on-the-ground stuff at the press conference so post any questions here and they’ll respond once they can!

Edit: We’ve left the hands-on area, but feel free to continue posting your questions. We’ll continue to answer them if we can, and might have another opportunity with some of the devices.

    Yes and yes for the Flip5 and Fold5 inner displays. The outer displays for both didn’t have a screen protector, but that may not be indicative of what you’ll get with a retail unit. Also, IIRC, the Fold4 did away with the screen protector on the outer display.

      Thx! Did you notice any difference in the texture of the display surface in the area covered by the screen protector? Does it feel like you could leave an indentation if pressing with your fingernail?

        The screen protector feels like glass. It’s been improved ever since the Fold4. I used the Fold3 and Fold4 for around 6 months, and managed to keep the screen protector pristine. You can probably indent it if you try hard enough, but something like fingernail scrolling is fine.
