With all the breaks some people are doing besides removing that screen layer. Has anyone panicked and canceled their order yet?
I cancelled. The other stuff didn't bother me, but tI didn't like the reports of dimpling on the screen. Those will build up over time and I have to think it would eventually harm the touchscreen capability.
Samsung needs to step up if the dimpling is a thing. That’s unacceptable to me and will cause me to cancel as well.
They may come up with a new plastic that is as hard as glass, but right now, plastic is just too soft a material to use for a touchscreen. Because right now, even if you do everything right, the screen looks like it will takea beating over time.
I think we need to distinguish between plastic and plastic film. Plastic has been used before for touchscreens but not plastic film. If the plastic is a hard as glass then it's too rigid to fold.
Not Canceling, I have had plenty of devices with plastic screens and had no issues. That said, I will likely invest in some form of protection policy. I will also be looking for the best ways I can protect the fold from FOD damage..
cheers,

Any advice on best protection? Square trade?
Samsung has already said they are moving along with production, didn't mention anything about changes. They are saying the problems are because of the film removal, so there's no reason for them to make changes. IMOJust to let you know. Before you guys get your's Samsung will probably have the screen problem all cleared up.
