They tested the first attempt for 200,000 folds also
That shows the difference between having a robot fold/unfold a device in the exact same way every time in a temperature and humidity controlled dust free lab, and humans who apply torque, use too much force, crush it in tight pockets on jeans (or back pockets for women who will inevitably sit on it eventually) and expose it to dust, smoke, humidity, temperature swings, children, pets, sticky surfaces and on and on.
Those plastic screens are gonna scratch far more easily than the glass we're used to - it is like a return to the bad old days of pre 2005 phones with plastic displays that slowly became cloudy from exposure to lint/dirt/sand in pockets and putting it in a pocket with keys or coins was right out.
Still v2.0 ought to last more than a few days before they recall it. I'll be surprised that even if initial reviews are positive that they haven't turned scathing by Christmas, after a few months of us non-robotic humans getting their paws on it.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
