[Help] Broken S7 Edge Screen

[Gunzlinger]

So I broke my Galaxy S7 Edge screen in a bike accident. Thought it would probably take 15k to get it repaired, turns out the guys at Hafeez center are asking 40k for screen replacement.
Bought the phone without warranty so now I'm stuck with a broken screen.

Anyway to repair it on the cheap? Thanks

Absolute cheapest way would be to import a screen yourself and watch a tutorial on how to replace it. Even then, the replacement display unit for an S7 edge is between 250 - 300 dollars.

40k is stretching it a bit, you could probably haggle and have it done for a bit lower than that, but in my opinion it isn't worth it. The resale of the phone would take a huge nosedive and you would be making an even bigger loss.
If you're spending 40k, you could probably get a slightly used S7 edge.

Thanks mate. I think I should get a PS4 Pro and learn to live with a broken S7 Edge screen for 2 years lol. Cos it seems kind of stupid to spend 40k to repair a 60k phone Thanks once again.

yep wait for some months the replacement costs will come down as well.

Hopefully it will come down to something reasonable in the 20k range. Thanks to Note 7 blowing up, the prices remained almost the same.
