iFixit Pulls Galaxy Fold Teardown at Samsung's Request

iFixit has pulled its Galaxy Fold teardown following a request from Samsung that it be removed.

We were provided our Galaxy Fold unit by a trusted partner. Samsung has requested, through that partner, that iFixit remove its teardown. We are under no obligation to remove our analysis, legal or otherwise. But out of respect for this partner, whom we consider an ally in making devices more repairable, we are choosing to withdraw our story until we can purchase a Galaxy Fold at retail.

Samsung recently delayed the release of its foldable smartphone after numerous reviewers suffered issues with the display after just a few days of use. iFixit's teardown found that the device provided insufficient protection from debris damaging the screen.
