Hi all, hope this questions hasn't been asked before.
I accidentally dropped my galaxy s5, and now I have alot scratched on mid frame/bezel ( hope that is what you call it , its the silver metal feel around it).
Just wondering if that can be replaced and if its expensive
Thx

If someone could reply with additional information about this I would appreciate it too. I did the same thing to my T-Mobile Galaxy S5 and would like to replace it to it wouldn't look all scratched up anymore, the rest of the phone is perfect still.

No, you can't replace just this one piece. It looks to be part of the front cover/frame. You'll likely have to disassemble the device, including the front panel, and install a replacement. This may result in additional issues, such as damage to the hardware. I would suggest using a case to "cover" the damage rather than risking further damage that is not repairable.
