Samsung Mocks Apple’s Cracking iPhone Duo With Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ads

Summary
Samsung’s official accounts in Canada, Malaysia, Australia and Saudi Arabia posted Galaxy Z Fold 8 ads that directly taunt Apple’s iPhone Duo over reports of inner-screen cracking.
Apple said within days of the iPhone Duo’s global launch that a “small number” of units are affected by cracks along the hinge line and offered replacements through AppleCare, even without AppleCare+.
Samsung tailored the jabs by market: Canada said “folding is nothing new to us,” Australia mocked opening a phone without the screen breaking, and Saudi Arabia used a fake crack that turned out to be wallpaper.
The campaign extends Samsung’s long-running habit of ridiculing iPhone missteps, even though Samsung’s own original Galaxy Fold suffered display problems that delayed its 2019 launch.
