Update: just went to a Samsung store and they replaced the screen protector for me. Didn't cost anything other than an hour of my time. Inner screen is back looking brand new. Very satisfied!

My screen protector that the phone came with has starting peeling away at the top of the crease. I first noticed it around 2 weeks ago but it's been slowly peeling more and more since then. I know Samsung offer (at least in the US) 1 free replacement within the first year of purchase but it has been tricky find a store that has the replacement screen protectors in stock. Anyone else have any experience with this?

I removed mine from my Fold 3 after it started peeling after ~ one year of use. I used it for another year without issues; the screen felt more like plastic without a protector. I peeled mine off slowly, starting from a corner and applying as little force as possible. I think most people don't have any issues with removing it, but you never know. I've seen a post or two from people who broke theirs doing it. If I had a valid warranty, I would have replaced it at a Samsung store.
