I've had my Fold 7 for a few months. Was super solid until today. All of the sudden the hinge feels loose and the Fold 7 doesn't snap shut like it did prior.

Also notice one of the little rubber hinge covers on the inner screen is looking weird like sort of crooked. Phone has been babied never once dropped.

Also have Samsung Care+

My question is this: Do I try and deal with warranty claim for this? Or just try and use Samsung Care+ for a full replacement? I actually don't mind just paying the deductible if it means I get a replacement sent to me quickly. Sending in my phone and waiting around for warranty sounds terrible.

Please let me know what I should do in this situation. Thanks!
