I'll be using it in open mode, and it will just go to lock screen. I can't *make it* do it, and it doesn't appear to be connected to any noticable pattern, button touch, app, etc. and I'm not folding it at all. 

It just goes to lock screen. Probably happens 3 times in 15 minutes. I just unlock it with fingerprint and it's fine until it happens again. Its been happening for a few weeks. I've restarted it, cleared cache, etc. 

I have Samsung Care +, but not sure it's a "serious issue" yet. It sure is annoying though!

Any ideas? Software? Hardware? ?? ??

Update: I got a replacement fold 6 from Samsung Care+. It does the same thing. The thing is, everytime it does it, it doesn't just go to the lock screen, but it locks, and then delays the option to unlock for 3-5 seconds. I was giving a presentation using my phone for notes and it did that twice.

Very very frustrating.

It also happens when it's NOT open, and I'm just using the cover screen.

ZFold 6 Randomly goes to Lockscreen.

Update: I'm on the newly rolled out One UI 8 Beta (for 12 hours now) and it SEEMS like the โ˜๐Ÿป "random lock bug" has been fixed. It was happening constantly yesterday with One UI7 and has not happened once since I updated. ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป
