A cracked inner screen on the Z Fold 8 Ultra will run you $639 to fix, according to Samsung's own official repair pricing.

Cracking your Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra screen could cost $639, so handle it carefully

The Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra screen replacement can cost up to $639, making it pricier than initially anticipated. This repair cost applies to the entire Galaxy Z Fold 8 lineup, with the inner screen alone being more expensive than purchasing a new budget phone. The slightly larger inner screen on the Fold 8 Ultra costs $579, while the Fold 7 replacement is $579.

The Flip 8 screen repair costs $359, up from $329 for the Flip 7. Outer screen replacement costs are significantly lower, with the Fold 8 Ultra at $149, regular Fold 8 at $139, and Flip 8 at $129. These out-of-warranty repair prices are roughly a quarter of the inner screen replacement cost. Samsung Care+ plans can lower repair costs to $29 for a one-time claim fee, but accidental damage from drops, pressure, or spills voids the standard warranty.

Samsung may introduce a double-tap-to-sleep feature similar to Google's Pixel devices in a future Android version, while OnePlus is rumored to launch the OnePlus 16 with a power-efficient and long-lasting display.
