I've had this phone for a couple of years now and the battery is bulging. Is this covered by the manufacturer or am I **bleep**?

Unfortunately, it is not covered. You would have to get the battery replaced at a Samsung authorized repair center.

I sent it in once for repairs because bestbuy broke it frying to put on a screen protector, and amongst other things it needs the bluetooth repaired as well. Smdh

Oh wow! I would have been very angry if Best Buy broke my phone! I honestly don't know the exact price for a Z Fold 3 battery replacement. You can find a location and schedule a repair by following the links below:

I still recommend reaching out to a repair center to see what went wrong. There may have been other issues stemming from the battery expansion. Diagnostics evaluations are typically free. Getting it fixed might be worth the potential trade-in value if it's cheap enough.
