While purchasing a foldable smartphone, one of the main concerns among users is the cost of repair. Everyone knows that even non-folding smartphones could be expensive to repair, but what about foldable phones? Till last year, Samsung charged a whopping $249 to repair a broken screen of the Galaxy Z Flip or the Galaxy Z Fold, with the Samsung Care Plus subscription. However, to encourage users to upgrade to the latest folding device, Samsung has lowered the cost of repair to a significant margin.   

According to a report by The Verge, the South-Korean company will now charge only $29 to replace the screen on the latest Galaxy Z Flip 4 or the Galaxy Z Fold 4, along with the Samsung Care Plus fees. This not only reduces the amount users have to pay for getting their foldable's screen repaired, but matches it with the fees that it to be paid for getting non-foldable phones repaired. Overall, the reduced repair cost should encourage users to adopt folding smartphones and choose them over conventional slab-style models.
