I wanted to see if anyone had noticed the back cover being creaky when you lightly pressure it about one inch below the camera on left side? It squeaks pretty noticeably when you squeeze it. Had the phone since 21st but I just noticed after a long phone call. It seems solid elsewhere other than there. Or is it just me being paranoid, since I came from a Droid X and that thing was built like a tank? I really like the phone, so don't want to go exchange if this is expected with polycarbonate builds. Thanks.
Not here. Solid as a rock and no creaking.

Mine is creaking like a mother on the bottom left corner. I just noticed it today! Ugh I hate to exchange for something like this but its so annoying.
One of the first things I did when I got it was press on it all over. Bummer if it creaks for you.

Well, I tried to exchange it today with no luck. At the store in my town the dude said they all do it. I said no way. I said bring out a new one and prove it. They couldn't replicate the creaking so the next excuse was that my phone was a corporate line and I wasn't authorized to change device id. I was like you're kidding me? And he try to sell a case so I could cover the noise. Not making this up!! I'll call our corporate rep on Monday and facilitate the exchange thru them. But it is stupid when you have a corporate store in town and they are utterly useless in costumer service.
When I press on my phone in the exact spot you mention it clicks. This is the first time it's happened. I figured it that if I press on it on a table it doesn't click, only if I hold it in my hand, so it has to do with the flex between my fingers. It sounds like it's the trim around the camera lens. I'm not worried.

Mine sounds like its 100 years old already. It creaks around the bottom corners like crazy. It drives me nuts...

Nope and I am sure others haven't as well that squeak. My first DNA did not, but I got the red employee edition and for the first two days it was fine then squeaked like it was 100 years old. HTC is known for this, there was a big thread on the HTC Incredible on androidforums that talked about the squeaky back, my wife's One X squeaked as well. Also there is a thread on the GS3 about the same problem, it happens with a lot of electronics even if they are taken good care of.
It is really just like any other device, some will have a flawless device others will have some problems. I baby my phone more than most others and unfortunately this time I was one with a squeaky back.

I learned that, then another store in town restored my faith. Long story short I had to return the first exchanged phone due to dust specs in between the glass and lcd. I've never seen something like it so I took to a store in town and they exchanged for another with no apparent defects. Got lucky on this one as it is perfect so far. Needless to say, I like the phone and I'm happy that the store made it right, but I'm disappointed with quality of HTC. To have to go thru three phones is annoying and time consuming. Doubt will get another phone from them in future.
The manager at store was fantastically helpful, and basically said that HTC had this issue with his previous phone. No matter what he did the cover would make noise. I've never opened the DNA but is seems to me that they are not setting the phones correctly on "frame" because even the second one had creaking on the lower right corner. So for the other posters, I do not know of any way of fixing or if it can be fixed at all. I know that it was annoying every time I picked up phone. As with anything else, there are disadvantages of being first adapters
nice nice..yeah a lot of people with nexus 7's had this same squeek problem too.
I'm in school right now and go to pull out my phone from my pocket and my screen wouldn't turn on. I come to see little hairline cracks on my screen but not on my glass which is odd. Now my phone turns on but the screen itself is just dead. I am rooted and running a rom so what should I do? Please help me!

OK, If you're not insured then you need to look at this video by Erica Griffin. Yes, this is for the GS3 but it really shouldn't be any different for the GS4. Her Vid on YouTube shows you how to replace the screen with digitizer and using all of the other parts from your current phone. It's actually a good video to see just so you know how easy this stuff is to do. The screen w/digitizer seems to run around $200 which is way better then $500-600 to buy a new phone outright. Just remember, I'm just giving you a cheaper option to fix it if you don't have insurance.

They claim that as long as they can't prove that the cracks were from impact there shouldn't be a problem. I'm afraid they might screw me over. But i mean the glass is completely fine and my sides have small nicks from previous small drops. im gonna try to unroot and wipe tomorrpw after school
My screen blacked out a week ago but been too busy to deal with it. Display comes through MHL onto my TV display so wonder do I need all parts mentioned? There's no crack in my display, but to my surprise the "moisture detector" sticker is tainted red (the big visible one, as I understand there are multiple stickers -- can someone confirm this to be correct?).
I may just take a risk and request replacement over the phone. Once or more in the past, I've had a warranty period issue replaced with the warning "...if its determined to be your fault, we will charge you the full retail price" and I've sent them bootloader unlocked, watermarked phones and they let it slide. There truly was no submersion or even open case exposure to water, I'm not sure how sensitive this particular sensor is to humidity or moisture through an enclosed back.
Anybody else surprised to see their "watermark" turn red when they feel it should not have been? From past experience having phones replaced via phone support, I'd wager they take my rooted, broken-display phone and never charge me for it.........................I been with VZW a decade and a half and then Bell Atlantic Mobile and planned in about 220-250 consistently for nearly a decade.........I'm not saying VZW is prone to show courtesy for longevity, but this could be 3-4 such instances in the smartphone era of questionable watermarks of rooted and flashed-to-hell Blackberries including blatant cracks...............

Hey everyone,
Just got back from the Verizon store. I decided to have the rep there put on my screen protector, so that if they did a bad job they would redo it. They did a great job putting the protector on, so i left and put a case on the phone in my car.
When i got home i was taking a closer look at the device and noticed scratches on the bottom half of the laser. Now I cant stop looking at it, although my girlfriend cant even notice them.
What would you guys do? I know its just a scratch, but painful to walk out of a store and already see damage on a device that i didnt cause. That being said, i know it will look ridiculous trying to point the scratch out if i go back in the store.

Call and get a replacement for a known problem, like the auxilary port doesn't work in most cars, etc.
Mine had the same scratches straight out the box from Verizon.
Are you living with it, or trying to get a replacement? there is a chance that maybe he didnt do it and it was that way out of the box in the case as well. Anyone else see this? the bottom 1/4 of the laser has scratches on it

I've been seeing a psychologist for my ocd for years and one of the biggest problems I have is "looking" for things wrong with phones I buy. His advice was to scratch whatever phone I buy in some way right away. He said eventually something like a drop could happen anyways. Nothing is perfect.

I do the same thing. Anything I buy or have has to be minty mint or it bothers me. Especially with phones I freak out when there's a scratch that for some reason only I can see.
Putting a little ding or scratch in helps stop obsessing. You should try it. Maybe it will help you also.

Here’s an important notice for current and future Galaxy Fold owners :angel:
https://www.sammobile.com/2019/04/1...portant-notice/amp/?__twitter_impression=true
SAMSUNG GALAXY FOLD ??????
Having watched an unhealthy amount of review videos, quite a few are mistreating them in my opinion. Slamming it shut really hard, tossing it down on to the desk, holding one side and trying to flip it open or closed. Not how you'd actually treat a device youd spent almost 2 grand of your own money on. And the one with the screen bulge that broke, they admitted to having used clay to hold it up for a photo shoot and that some could have got inside the hinge and caused the damage.
I'm not sure there's actually an issue here for anyone who looks after their devices. And if it turns out that the devices can't cope with real life, then get a refund. You either end up with a fantastic device that you really wanted, or you've gotten to play with one until it breaks and you get your money back. There's not really any downside apart from hassle of setting up a new phone again.
I literally watched a reviewer on YouTube put a pizza and hotdog in the Fold and pretended to eat the food from the device *smh

Yeah there attack articles are really unair whey all say in title galaxy folds are breaking No.... reviewers are breaking the devices a few idiots removed a very hard to remove screen protector that didn't come off easy at all one person got clay in the hinge another device looks like it was sat on and a display cable was likely broken
then at the very bottom, they actually say what happened there click bait caused Samsung Stock to drop sharply losing millions in value i would never send them another unit but im petty

Check yours...
I am not going to defend Samsung etc, however if your unit is broken, got defects, or you are not happy with something - just send it back, ask for replacement or just return it then buy new one.
It's not just his... looks like a lamination issue.
Not something you should see on a flagship display.
Rather than owe up to it Samsung is making excuses saying it's normal. Translation: there must be a lot of them with this defect...

First: If you were read article you will knew that Samsung said it is manufacturing side effect so maybe it is not so obvious to return the unit. The defect is in the same place on all reported phones... Could be hard to get one without it as guy in twitter try 2 times and both have the same issue.
Second: If you were look inside the twitter comments you will see that it is not only uk but also in usa and other regions that are affected.
Third: 23u is my primary phone, so not so easy to just return it and stay without the phone as i also use esim. And more over i can get another unit with the same defect or even they will not accept it as they mention as it is side effect of manufacturing.
Right now it is not disturbing the use of the phone, but as i know it is there it is quite not comfy...
It's really irritating that people look for this nonsense that doesn't affect the functioning of the phone one iota and then share it around and ruin everyone else's enjoyment of their devices.
I can confirm that my US Ultra has this. Never would have seen it if it wasn't pointed out.

First - I read it, if you are not happy with the product, don't use it, simple. You still have 14 days to send it back if you are not happy, vote with your wallet.
Second - And? Not sure how big % of phones got that issue, but same as above applies, if people are not happy they should send units back. Maybe then samsung would acknowledge issue.
Third - No one force you to stay without phone, if you sold etc. your previous one or sent it back for trade in, then make a complain to Samsung.
And fourth, if you read my post with understanding you would get that I do not defend them. Sending back bad/wrong/broken etc product is our right, Samsung and S23 is not the only phone on the market, if you have issues with them, than feel free to buy something else.
I was angry with oneplus few years ago and guess what, I am on samsung now.

The problem is it's not supposed to be there at all. Not on my N10+'s. On a display that's not acceptable. It's a manufacturing defect and right where it's always in your face.
Worse, pretty sure Samsung was aware of this defect but they shipped them anyway. Like a brat they do what they want then make lame bs excuses for their actions. This isn't a injection molding tab Sammy, it's a screw up.
At this point there's no telling if over time it will get worse and/or spread. I'd return it for a cash refund especially at this price point, where the defect is and Samsung's condescending attitude.
but this is only visible with a strong light source, with certain angle of light with screen off. it has no impact on usability. i have seen it in the past on other curved displays

I upgraded to s23u with EE and i got it on 13th , 512gb ,green. Everything fine,until 3 days later when i installed a Samsung screen protector on,using a flashlight i was eyeballing for dust particles using a sticker. Right bottom corner i noticed a smudge, wiped off,still there, anyway upon close look ,in certain angle using the flashlight, i noticed this crease/bubble/dent around 4mm in width and 2mm height . To me it looks like a dent inwards rather than a bubble. Checked my pixel 7pro,nothing, checked my missus s21plus(flat screen),nothing, then i remembered i have stashed a galaxy s8(still works a take faster photos than s23u though) anything like this,screen was perfect.
Don't get me wrong, only in bright light ,shining directly on the screen you can see it. The touch screen works perfectly.
I contacted EE, the tech support said it looks like delamination or sort and could spread in time, right ,i said i do like the phone and i would like an exchange. EE delivered next day the replacement, as you guessed, same issue, this time half in size,almost not visible, but because i knew where and how to look ,i spotted it right away. Also very fine crease on the right,but almost not visible(unless you know what to look for).
Can i live with this ,yes i can,do i want to take a risk,thinking that potentially, ot could spread over thetime,hmm ,i don't. Opened a second return.
For ppl who said that this is not a big deal,remember, th ise damn phone is expensive and it should be perfect,like my previous s22ultra amd my 5 years old S8
I attached some photos 1,the first phone and 2
glad i am not that inquisitive otherwise i would still use nokia 3110

I think the issue is that most people wouldn't even notice if someone didn't point it out to them in special lighting. I think you should be able to discuss and point out anything you deem flawed. But on the other end you should also expect pushback from people who think you are just being spoiled when you have the option to return it. I have noticed it on my Galaxy S23 Ultra US version but only by looking at it in lighting. I think the device is fantastic and even with that little flaw I will keep my device since I can't really notice it since I have a case on it.

It's probably present on certain batches; some will have it, others not. A major QC screw up. If the defect was minor you wouldn't be able to see it at all.
This is a defect that could effect the survivability of the glass. Glass is subject to some of the laws of hydrodynamics. This deformity causes new stress points. It may not crack there but in another area of the display, hydrodynamics. Glass is a peculiar substance with bizarre properties. Of course if it breaks Samsung will say it's your fault for dropping it.
DON'T SAY YOU WEREN'T WARNED
