samsung galaxy s20 ultra lcd screen replacement free sample
Usually a fall is the origin of a broken screen on a smartphone. This sure is annoying at first, but usually the display can be repaired with the right instructions. We at iDoc will show you how to replace the broken display of your SAMSUNG GALAXY S20 by yourself.
The Samsung GALAXY S20 is opened via the heavily glued glass back cover. All components of the device are located in the display unit, so all components such as the battery, main board, speaker etc. must be removed and inserted into the new display.
The Samsung Galaxy S20 offers a 6.2" OLED, making it the smallest of the S20-series devices. Like its siblings, the S20 is equipped for 5G connectivity, offers impressive AI-based zoom and shoots 8K/24p video. The S20 is equipped with triple rear-facing cameras: 12MP ultra-wide and standard cameras, plus a 64MP telephoto module. The device offers 3x hybrid optical/digital zoom as well as "Super Resolution Zoom" up to 30x.
A cracked Samsung phone screen can be devastating, especially if you rely on your phone for business, school and your social life. Screen replacement options include cell phone repair services, insurance claims and DIY repair. Here’s a breakdown of each plus associated costs to help you decide which option is best – plus whether it’s worth fixing your phone or if you’re better off selling it broken.
Option 1: Cell phone repair services – $199 to $329 Local repair shops can often replace your Samsung screen in under an hour, so you can get your phone fixed over your lunch break. Online mail-in repair services take longer, but they can be good options if you do not have a qualified local repair shop.
Expect to pay between $199 and $329 for Samsung screen replacement, depending on your model. Some repair shops offer warranties that offer free or discounted parts and labor if your screen fails within the warranty period.
If you have it, phone insurance might be your cheapest option. You can even get same-day screen replacement if an authorized or mobile repair center is nearby. Otherwise, you’ll need to mail your phone in for repair.
Some carrier plans allow you to request a replacement device instead of getting your phone repaired, but that option typically costs more. For example, Verizon insurance charges $29 for screen repairs but up to $249 for replacement.
Option 3: Do-it-yourself (DIY) cracked Samsung phone screen replacement – $92 to $240 You can purchase a replacement screen for your Samsung phone from several phone parts suppliers, including Repairs Universe, Injured Gadgets and FixEZ. Some stores sell screen replacement kits that come complete with tools; otherwise, you’ll need to buy tools separately. Toolkits start at $5.
Expect to pay between $92 and $240 for a replacement screen, depending on your Samsung model, whether your buy new or refurbished and whether you buy the screen with or without the frame (the frame adds around $20 and can make installation easier). Keep in mind that quality varies, and you’ll typically spend more for a high-quality screen. Pricing can also vary by color.
Note that some parts suppliers sell OEM (original equipment manufacturer) parts while other sell aftermarket parts. Some offer both. Here are some example replacement Samsung screen prices (with the frame).Galaxy S20New: $240
How to replace your Samsung screen WARNING: Screen replacement can be a difficult repair, especially if you aren’t experienced. Before you attempt to replace your own Samsung screen, be aware that you risk causing additional damage and you could void any warranties and insurance policies.
You can find detailed step-by-step instructions on sites like iFixit and YouTube. Here are screen replacement videos for the Samsung Galaxy S20, S10 and S9.
Should you fix your Galaxy screen or sell it broken? You might want to base your decision on how much your phone is worth broken versus repaired, especially if you plan to upgrade soon.
For example, at the time of this writing, a Samsung Galaxy S10 128GB on the Verizon network was worth $155 in good condition. Here’s a breakdown of its net value after different repair options.
Galaxy S10 Value – Cost of Repair = Net Value After RepairRepair MethodValue (good condition)– Repair/Deductible Cost= Net Value After Repair
Next, compare the net value after repair to what your Samsung phone is worth in broken condition. At the time of this writing, a broken Samsung Galaxy S10 128GB on the Verizon network was worth $40.
As you can see, our example Galaxy phone will have the highest value if you file an insurance claim, though the SquareTrade deductible leaves a net value of just $6.
