Large screen.

Perspective — Tue, 03 Mar 2026 18:13:28 GMT

I've got the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6, it's not that old, I got it right when the Fold 7 was released so not older than 6 months. I've got a screen protector on my large screen that has started blacking my screen out. It first started right at the Fold, & now it's spreading at the top, how do I get this fixed?

If i understand correctly, you added a screen protector to the inner screen? I don't think that is a good idea because of the small clearances involved when the device is folded.

Regardless you will need to contact Samsung support to get the device evaluated. Most likely the inner screen will need to be replaced.

Okay thank you so much for quick response. So the Inner screens don't need protecting?

@Perspective The Fold 6 comes from the factory with an inner screen protector installed. Adding another one can cause impact to the screen when the device is closed.

Gotcha, it doesn't look like mine has any screen protector on it though. I'll take it in & get a new screen, & make sure they have the screen protector that it comes with added. Thank you
