Are there still pre-applied screen protectors on the foldables and can you still see the edge of the protector?
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.
Hmm didn't check for that on the demo units but I'll check the unit I'll get and will ask about the other device as well.
I don't see a screen protector on the outer display but there is one on the inner display (Fold 5)
