The description does say its a rough design.

Samsung are releasing one soon so that should be much better.

 

Samsung’s foldable phone is real, and it launches next year

 

Samsung is calling this hardware the "Infinity Flex Display," and it will come as part of the company's first foldable smartphone. As you would expect from Samsung, the display is still OLED. The cover is no longer glass, of course, because glass isn't flexible. Samsung says it developed "an advanced composite polymer"—plastic—to cover the display instead. That plus a new flexible adhesive that bonds the display cover together allows the display to be folded "hundreds of thousands of times" without degrading, according to Samsung. The company even said it was developing "rollable" and "stretchable" displays for the future.
