Today we are seeing some controversy with the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip and the resistance of its screen, the first to be protected by the flexible glass that had been announced so much. The controversy came as a result of the endurance test conducted by the JerryRigEverything YouTube channel, where we could see that the screen was permanently marked with extremely low hardness levels, as was already the case with the Samsung Galaxy Fold or any other folding phone.
From here, it is when the controversy has arisen for how much marketing on the ultra-thin flexible glass if in the end, it does not offer any real protection to the screen. Moreover, even in the presentation, there was talk of protection against scratches and we have already seen that this is not so. It also seems to improve the resistance of the screen to hundreds of thousands of folds but, in case it breaks, how much does it cost to repair the screen of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip?
Change once the screen of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip will be cheap
First of all, to say that we have tried to contact Samsung’s technical service but we have not been able to indicate the price of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip-screen repair and no details about this appear on its official website, just like the Galaxy Fold. Anyway, Ishan Agarwal has shared the prices that have the repair of this screen for the first time we want to make the replacement of this component.
Yes, you read correctly, it is the price for the first replacement, which will be much cheaper than the second. If our Samsung Galaxy Z Flip is left with the damaged screen and we want to replace it, we will have to pay a price of 9,936 rupees, which in exchange are 128 euros, approximately. It is a slightly lower price than we saw for the Samsung Galaxy Fold, which also appears in the table shared by Ishan. Therefore and based on the price of the normal repair of the Galaxy Fold screen, we can estimate that the following screen repairs of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip will be around 500 euros.
To get an idea, in the official Samsung technical service, changing the screen to the Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ is 275 euros and that is a curved screen. Therefore, this makes it clear to us how expensive it is to change the screen of a foldable phone, probably not only for the price of the component itself but also for the labor force, since they have a much more complex interior than one more phone normal.
