Samsung Electronics Expands the Self-Repair Programme to the United Kingdom

Customers in the UK can make a self-repair on their Samsung Galaxy devices

LONDON, United Kingdom – June 19th, 2023 – Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. today announced that its Self-Repair programme is now available in the UK. This move builds on the company’s recent Korean launch of the programme.

Now, even more Galaxy customers who wish to make their own device repairs can access the tools they need, including repair kits and genuine Samsung parts, which can help prolong the lifecycle of their devices, if properly repaired^[1]. The programme supports repairs to the Galaxy S20, S21 and S22 series of products as well as the Galaxy Book Pro and Galaxy Book Pro 360^[2].

“Samsung is working to extend the lifecycle of our devices to encourage users to experience the optimised performance of their Galaxy device for as long as possible,” said TM Roh, President and Head of Mobile eXperience Business at Samsung Electronics. “We are committed to scaling access to our Self-Repair programme around the world while improving the repairability of our products.”

Samsung first launched its Self-Repair programme in the United States in 2022. To take the programme to European customers, Samsung is openly collaborating with leading parts distributors such as ASWO, a Germany-based after-sales service and electronics specialist for Europe and authorised Samsung distributor ^[3].

Providing Self-Repair Solutions Today

Starting today, Samsung Galaxy S20, 21, and S22 series users in Europe can replace the phone screen, back glass and charging ports^[4]. Galaxy Book Pro series owners will have access to seven genuine parts to take repair into their own hands. This includes the case front, case rear, display, battery, touchpad, power key with fingerprint reader, and rubber feet. Customers will also be able to keep all repair tools so they can use them whenever they need, providing a convenient, no-hassle experience to fix their Galaxy devices at any time.

Samsung is committed to expanding its Self-Repair programme in the near future to include more devices, repair tools, manuals and markets. These efforts seek to broaden access to repair capabilities, empowering Galaxy customers with more choices to repair their technology.

From the end of June customers will be able to visit https://www.samsung.com/uk/ to learn more about the Self-Repair programme.
