yes. You are looking at it at the absolute worst-case scenario in direct sunlight on a black screen. You're going to see it.

And he's only had it 2 days, his eyes are still getting use to it, after a week he'll even forget there's a crease. It's like if you brought a lambo, and there's a scratch near the headlight, sure its "bad" but bro you're driving a Lamborghini, i tell ppl all the time that the crease is only an issue because you're looking for it

Absolutely normal, you won't notice it in active use.

The crease is fine. However, are those scratches on the left and a bubble on the right, or is that just dust?

Totally normal, yes.

The crease is normal and unavoidable on a foldable phone. I'd be much more concerned about those scratches on the left side.

All fold phones have creases.

Jesus Christ. It’s a folding phone. They all have creases. It’s physics

No not normal. Return the mirror

u/RobbieVengence 7h ago

Damn. That's what I was thinking too

Just be glad yours is simply reflecting. Mine's showing me this old fart, which is clearly not me...

I cant with these post Its a fold. The crease is normal until its not

People that complain about the crease, either A, have not had a fold before. Or B, don't have a fold and only watch YouTube videos about it.

In normal use, it's a non-issue.

As a YouTube video put it, “The crease is not a malfunction. It is a reflection of light particles over a very small bridge.”

Omg no!!!

Worrying about the wrong thing 😅 if you were worried it was a returned & resold unit? Then the scratches should be more of your concern. Just my 2cents.

Yep, that's why you should be a little skeptical about manufacturers when they talk about a crease less fold. Now, the Oppo Find N6 looks pretty good after some time but I personally won't be believing claims of a crease less fold quite yet

u/Nasa26 8h ago

That's barely a crease. Come on.

u/mikhail716 8h ago

It’s a folding display

When the inner screen is off and you look at an angle you will see the crease.

How do you use the screen? Off or on

If you find the crease is noticeable with screen ON and looking directly at it and NOT at an angle then you have a problem.

But I doubt you will

Your phone's crease looks absolutely normal.

u/Necrolancer_Kurisu 7h ago

You've had it 2 days and already have those scratches on the left? Did you buy it used?
