A cracked back does more than spoil the look of your Samsung: moisture and dirt get in and the shards cut your hand. At PhonePlus in Amsterdam we replace the back cover for a price you know before we start.

Why a back cover is more work than it looks
From outside it looks like a sheet of glass; inside it is the load-bearing layer of the device. On glass backs the panel is bonded to the frame with strong adhesive and has to be released piece by piece with heat and controlled pressure, without touching the antennas and the wireless charging coil. Those often sit right against it and are carried over to the new back. One thing we say up front: a device that has been opened is never sealed quite as well as it was from the factory.
Why a Galaxy screen comes with its frame
On most Galaxy models the AMOLED panel is laminated to the metal frame at the factory, and at the edges the screen curves into the side of the phone. Separating that panel from the frame rarely survives the attempt, so we fit screen and frame as one assembly. The result is neater than a bare panel, and the water seal around the edge is rebuilt in the same step. If your model has the fingerprint reader under the display, it belongs to the new panel and you will need to register your fingers again after the repair. We do that with you before you leave.
Frequently asked questions about Samsung back cover replacement
Is a cracked back cover really a problem?
It is more than cosmetic. Moisture and dust reach the electronics through the crack, splinters come loose in your hand or your bag, and on glass backs a split tends to run further the next time the device knocks against something. Replacing it early is simpler than replacing it late.
Will wireless charging still work afterwards?
On models that support wireless charging the coil sits behind the back cover and we carry it over. We check that wireless charging still works after the repair before you take the device home.
Can just the glass be replaced, or does the whole housing come out?
That varies by model. On one device the back is a separate panel, on another the glass is part of the frame and in practice you replace the entire housing. The free diagnosis makes clear which category your model falls into, and only then do we agree a price.
How long does it take?
Releasing the panel and cleaning off the old adhesive takes time, so this is usually not a half-hour job like a screen or battery on a phone. Most of the time the device is ready the same day or the next working day; you will hear what it is for your model when you drop it off.
