Other Samsung s23ultra screen coming off

arup · Sep 3, 2024

This is happening to my S23 ultra which is 1+ year old (warranty expired). Screen has some light scratches due to usage without screen protector. I actually used UV glue protector for sometime, but fingerprint didn't work well so removed and used bare screen for most of the time.
Is this issue repairable by some method ? Maybe opening and repasting the glass just like BGA reballing

SC estimates 22.5k for screen replacement !!!

Oh shit. I own the same phone and using it without any screen protector from Day 03 (Yes, got a cheap screen protector and discarded it in 2 days) and this looks scary.
This is an excellent phone and would last you years. If I were in your place, I would go ahead with Samsung's screen replacement for that price and have peace of mind. However, I would be vary of the Water Proof properties of the mobile post that.

Did the UV Glue get under the screen? Is there enough space there for the glue to get under the screen?
How did you conclude that the screen is getting separated, it sure looks like that but just asking.

IMO if it is not causing any functioning issue, then it would be best to leave it as it is. If there is some gap under the screen, I would handle the phone carefully around water.
If the screen and touch is working as expected, I don't see much point in spending 22k.

This looks like the kind of damage that might happen on removal of some hard glued screen protector.

Since display/touch working fine, and the screen is not literally coming off, I'm not into spending 22k.
I'm noticing it from last few weeks. It maybe was there from much longer time, but didn't really notice it.
Funny thing is that once you notice it, you notice it everyday and worry about it might get worse and screen would come off.

It seems due to UV Glue which has gone between the digitizer and top glass screen . The hardened glue has now put pressure and lifting up the glass . There is no option but to change it , there might be someone who might heat it up and melt it away

Exactly, once you notice it, game's over.

Try looking for a cover which has extra lip at the bottom which can cover it. Out of sight, out of mind.
