[Update: Resolved] Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 cover display is faulty and showing green lines
Samsung has started to deliver pre-ordered Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 flagships starting today. Consumers are so happy as the devices are now reaching their doorsteps, while, we just spotted that there are two green lines that appeared on the Galaxy Z Fold 4 cover display, raising questions on the manufacturing process of Samsung.
Concept creator HoiINDI shared his concern through a Twitter post, posting the faulty cover display of the Galaxy Z Fold 4, which is showing two green parallel lines. He spotted the issue while setting up the device as the posted video showcases the first impression of the initial setup interface.
As per his claim, Samsung has refused the replacement of the recently delivered Galaxy Z Fold 4, therefore, he managed to warn users for a recheck of the cover display issue. At the time of writing, Samsung remained silent on the matter, while the thread is now getting more user reports for the same issue as no one wants an issue-packed flagship that costs $1799.
You can check the video and screenshots in HoiINDI’s Twitter post below:

As the screenshots are clearly hinting at a manufacturing defect on the Galaxy Z Fold 4’s cover display, Samsung should hear the concern of the consumer and proceed with a replacement as soon as possible.
As of now, the fault is spotted by just one buyer, but the graph might increase seeing the Twitter post, and will surely make a bad impact on the sales.
Green lines on Galaxy, are not a new thing:
Several Samsung phones reported having green tint or green line issues on display. While the Galaxy S20 models are affected with a green tint, the S10 FE had ghost touches. The company claimed that it had fixed defects like green tints or lines through software updates, but, the reality isn’t the same.
Well, Samsung won’t leave its consumers for providing after-sales support. Possibly, the company may have been facing supply issues due to massive numbers of pre-orders. The support is recommending buyers visit nearby service centers, making consumers angry about the service.
Update:
HoiINDI confirmed that Samsung has resolved the issue and promised for refund after some necessary procedures.

AirPods Max features a breathable knit mesh canopy, distributing weight to reduce on-head pressure. The noise control button easily switches between Active Noise Cancellation and Transparency mode.
Pushing its own ecosystem, Apple says AirPods Max users will support all features if connected with an iPhone. Similar to Wear OS exclusivity to Android, Apple is continuing its approach of accentuating feature limitations.
Apple’s decision to unveil new colors of AirPods Max is a strategic move. The company doesn’t require a dedicated launch event to announce the color refresh of products. However, it’s great to utilize a stage to introduce multiple products.
There’s no heavy outrage over the lack of innovation of lazy design movements. Other vendors like Samsung and Google face immense criticism across the internet. Anyways, consumers should be aware and get the best service for the money they are spending.
