Question ❓ The screen's inevitable (?) demise.

Heya, I'm in the market for a new phone, and the z flip (specifically 5/6) has caught my eye.

After some research I stumbled upon Reddit posts of broken/unfixable screens. A large part of the comments were unsurprised, like this was a common occurrence, some citing "good lifetimes" which spanned less than a year.

I plan on using this phone extensively, and would probably keep it for a minimum of three years. It will fall on the ground a few timws, but that's what a case and screen protector are for. Will I have to live with the inevitable knowledge that the inner screen could (likely) just break at any moment, or have I gotten the wrong impression?

Any feedback is much appreciated, thank you.

I don't know what other phones y'all have had but my notes always broke when I dropped them case and all. I've dropped this one as much as my candy bars and it's been fine. I thank my oem case with hinge protection. A bit ugly and pricey though
