Repairing your broken Galaxy S22 just got a whole lot easier

Add as a preferred source on Google

Samsung has just announced an expansion to Samsung Care, its self-repair program, that includes five more devices. With this latest expansion, you can now purchase repair parts and tools to fix up the Galaxy S22, S22+, and S22 Ultra. The program is also available for the Galaxy Book Pro 15-inch and Galaxy Book Pro 360 15-inch PCs.

Previously, the Samsung Care program launched with support for only the Galaxy S20 and S21 series of phones, as well as the Tab S7 Plus. With this expansion to the S22 lineup, it is hopefully a good sign that Samsung will also add support for the upcoming Galaxy S23 series in the near future.

With this expanded program, Galaxy S22 owners will be able to replace displays, back glass, and charging ports themselves by purchasing self-repair kits, just as they could with the Tab S7+, Galaxy S20, and S21 series devices. The self-repair kits for both the S22 series and Galaxy Book Pros are available for purchase starting today.

“The Self-Repair program has exceeded our expectations, and we hear one resounding message: people want more models. Enterprise customers in particular told us they need solutions for PCs,” said Mark Williams, vice president of Customer Care at Samsung Electronics America. “People want to get more out of their devices and need durable products that last. Samsung is committed to offering Care options that meet their needs.”

This move to expand the program is just another step in Samsung’s commitment to delivering the best experience for consumers who are looking for a convenient choice when seeking service for their devices. Instead of having to discard these models when something goes wrong, the self-repair program allows people to extend the life of a device, which leads to greater sustainability.

If the idea of self-repairing your device sounds a bit daunting, Samsung Care also provides full access to online repair guides that have complete step-by-step instructions for fixing issues. But if you still don’t think you can do the repair yourself, the program can also be used to connect you to professionals in a few different ways. These can include in-store repairs, “We Come to You” services, and mail-in repairs, as well as access to other certified Samsung service providers. There are plenty of options available for getting even more out of your Samsung device with the Samsung Care program, which is more affordable than buying a new smartphone.

Samsung may give the Galaxy S27 Ultra a major eye comfort upgrade
A new leak suggests Samsung could add DC dimming to reduce OLED flicker on its next flagship phones.

Samsung’s Galaxy S27 Pro and Galaxy S27 Ultra are shaping up to look quite different from the current generation, but the changes underneath may not be nearly as dramatic. Camera processing is reportedly being tweaked for warmer, more natural-looking photos, while certification filings point to a much-needed battery bump.

A fresh leak, however, points to an upgrade that could matter a lot more to people with sensitive eyes. Tipster WalleGalaxy claims Samsung will introduce DC dimming support on the Galaxy S27 Pro and Ultra, potentially moving away from the PWM-only approach it has relied on for years. The current Galaxy S26 series still uses PWM at around 480Hz and offers no DC-like flicker reduction option.

Apple is preparing an unusually large retail push for the iPhone Duo, its first foldable iPhone, with flagship stores expected to feature dozens of hands-on demo units and dedicated displays. The aim is to give customers a proper look at the foldable device before deciding whether it is worth the premium price.

According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple is planning more than 150 demo units at its Fifth Avenue flagship in New York City. The Apple Park Visitor Center is expected to have nearly 100, while stores on Michigan Avenue in Chicago, the Grove in Los Angeles, and Manhattan’s Upper West Side could each receive around 30 to 40 units. Smaller stores are expected to have roughly 20 demo devices.

Apple could add a personal touch to its upcoming iPhone Duo launch, letting buyers see their names on the screen the first time they turn on their new phones. According to Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman, Apple retail stores in the US will have a system to customise the device’s initial greeting, so it displays a message such as “Hello, Mark” instead of the usual generic welcome.
