HOW TO GET YOUR SAMSUNG S21 SCREEN REPAIRED

Since the earpiece speaker and sensors are located on the back of the screen, they must be transferred carefully during the repair process. These components are critical for features like biometric facial recognition, so extra care must be taken to avoid damage. If any of these components are compromised, they may only be repairable by certified Samsung technicians.

CAN YOU REPAIR THE SCREEN IF YOUR SAMSUNG S21 FALLS INTO WATER?

The Samsung S21 comes with an IP68 water resistance rating, meaning it can withstand submersion in up to 1.5 meters of water for up to 30 minutes. However, over time, this water resistance may degrade. Samsung does not cover water damage under its warranty, so if your phone gets damaged by liquid, screen replacement may be needed.
