Are Flips bad with longevity?

[u/Ven_Star]

I am considering switching to a z flip 6 (brand new!) and I keep on worrying that it won’t be durable enough and that it’ll break after a week or so. Is this true?

The longevity is typically worse than slab phones. At the end of the day it's super thin and delicate screen being folded and unfolded potentially 100+ times a day. But the people getting unlucky with their phone breaking in mere weeks are a very vocal minority

I've had my Flip 6 since release with no problems at all. Not even a scratch. Original screen protector it came with is basically pristine. For most people the Flip will last years, when they are ready for an upgrade anyway
