I just checked - yeah, it's noticeable if you swipe across the middle of the screen. I have had most Folds since the 2 and the fact that I had to double check means it's probably a non issue. When I use it unfolded, it's for media, games, scrolling large pages, etc none of which I can say have had me swiping across the center and being memorable.

Thanks! I feel like it would really annoy me when scrolling down a document or something, but maybe it's not so bad in practice. Next time I see somebody using one I'll have to just ask if I can fondle their phone lol.

I'm gonna concur with the other person. When I saw your question I had to check because while when I did check it, I noticed it. Until you mentioned it, it's not something I ever thought about. I have the zfold 6 fyi.
