Samsung Gal Note8 (screen damage)

[Android Central Question]

Can I walk in the store and have them just repair/replace my phone just like that? What do I have to bring other than my ID/phone? What's the process and how long does it take? Does anyone have tips for avoiding more than one visit to the store? Carrier=T-Mobile.

If your area has a tmobile service facility they might fix it, if not you will have to send it in to samsung.

did you sign up for the insurance? they decide how/where it gets fixed in a lot of instances.

Here's an idea since you say you have TMobile. How about calling them for your answers?

Your carrier could take care of it but it's going to cost you around 250. 300

If you don't have insurance it may be a little more.

Sprint it's somewhere around 260.00

Muth blanking right
Nice one

He could look for a Samsung service center depending on what State he's in. Also Bestbuy, will repair phone's now, but only your carrier can give you a stand in but again that depends on your carrier.

Call your carrier bud.

Some coporate Sprint stores and they're vary rare will repair a screen. It's been so long since I had TMobile. I think they send everything out

How much does Best Buy charge to fix a Note 8 screen? Wouldn't it be easier just going to one of those smaller franchise places to get it fixed and likely cheaper too?

The closest BB that repairs screens is all the way in Orlando. If that ever happens to me I'll probably just go to one of those shops.

If you get the phone repaired at other than Samsung is it still the same type of glass and everything?

O my that sucks. You're better off just sending it to Samsung and having them replace or repair the screen. The screen by itself is about 200 so having a small mom and pop shop do it will cost you the same and it wouldn't come with the professional services you would get from Samsung. Only other option your carriers insurance plan. Good luck, I can only imagine the feeling you have. I wouldn't want to be in that situation.
