Expert Advice & Tips
Common causes of this issue:
- Aging battery capacity: over time, cells hold less charge and voltage becomes unstable, leading to faster drain.
- Heat and heavy use: sustained warmth accelerates wear and reduces long‑term health.
- Software power management: background processes can keep apps awake and drain power.
- Physical damage: drops or swelling can impair battery function.
- Faulty charging gear: low‑quality chargers or cables can prevent proper charging.
Prevention tips:
- Use certified chargers and good quality cables; avoid cheap knock‑offs.
- Keep software up to date and manage background apps.
- Store devices in a cool, dry place and avoid leaving them charging overnight.
- Don’t leave devices in direct sun; remove case if the device overheats while charging.
- Schedule battery replacement before swelling becomes a risk.
When to repair vs replace:
If battery health remains solid and the phone operates well, a repair is usually best.
- Repair when capacity is above ~60% and the device works reliably.
- Replace when capacity is below ~60% or there is swelling or safety risk.
What to look for in a quality repair service:
- Clear diagnostic process and upfront quote.
- Genuine or high‑quality replacement parts with testing.
- Warranty longer than 90 days and visible QA checks.
- Transparent turnaround times and convenient options (walk‑in, mobile).
Red flags to avoid:
- Vague quotes or hidden fees.
- No post‑repair testing or no warranty.
- Unverified technicians or unknown parts sources.
- Delays without explanation or poor communication.
Maintenance guidance after repair:
- Monitor battery health in settings and adjust usage.
- Keep firmware updated and calibrate battery periodically.
- Use power saving features when battery drops significantly.
- Avoid charging to 100% all the time; unplug at around 80%.
What Our Customers Say
I popped into iRepair Guys on Westbourne Road after my Galaxy A42 5G battery suddenly died. They fixed it in under 60 minutes, quoted £30, and the battery quality is excellent. Compare that to the Apple Store queue — this was so much quicker and friendlier.
We run a small design studio near Market Street and needed a quick battery fix for a Galaxy A42 5G. The iRepair Guys mobile service arrived on time, the £30 battery replacement was clear, and the team gave a business discount. Far more efficient than a trip to the Apple Store.
As a student, I needed a budget-friendly Galaxy A42 5G battery swap. The £30 price is transparent, and the staff explained the process clearly. Cheaper than Apple and I could see the savings add up across my device needs.
I mailed my Galaxy A42 5G for a battery replacement and was impressed with the quick turnaround. The mail-in option worked smoothly, with clear tracking and a 12-month warranty. Great alternative if you can't visit Marsh.
As a busy professional, I needed a same-day repair for my Galaxy A42 5G battery. They came through at our office with on-site service, friendly staff, and a £30 fix that’s backed by a 12-month warranty — much better than waiting at the Apple Store.
We had multiple Galaxy devices in need of battery replacements after a family trip to Marsh. iRepair Guys fixed all of them quickly, with a loyalty discount applied. It's handy to have a trusted local option in Marsh instead of a trip to the Apple Store.

Q:
Why cheaper than Apple?
iRepair Guys operates with lower overhead and a streamlined process while using high-quality parts. We provide same-day service, local mobile options, and a straightforward £30 battery replacement, plus a 12-month warranty. Apple Store prices typically include higher labour and consultation fees, so our local, efficient model offers better value with the same or better outcomes.
Q:

No hidden costs. The £30 covers parts, labour, VAT, and a 12-month warranty for the battery replacement. If additional issues are found requiring more work, we’ll quote transparently before proceeding and you’ll have the option to approve the extra cost.

We offer straightforward pricing with occasional discounts for students and businesses. If you’re a business, we can discuss a loyalty or bulk-repair rate. You can pay by card, cash, or digital wallets, and you’ll receive a clear receipt showing the £30 battery replacement as the core service.
Quality & Process

Q:

Q:
Affect manufacturer warranty?
Our work and parts do not automatically void manufacturer warranties. If the device is under Samsung warranty, the impact depends on whether the fault is caused by the repair or by other factors. We can advise on this at the time of service and provide documentation for your records.
Technical
Q:
Device-specific technical question
Galaxy A42 5G battery replacements require careful handling of the back cover and internal connectors. We disconnect power safely, replace the pack with OEM-grade components, calibrate the battery, and run a series of tests to ensure the device powers up correctly and holds charge reliably.
Q:
What causes this issue?
Battery performance declines due to ageing, repeated charging cycles, heat exposure, and background apps. Poor charging habits can accelerate wear, while software updates may occasionally affect how the battery is reported, leading to perceived drain.
Q:
Repair or replace device?
For most Galaxy A42 5G battery issues, replacement is the most cost-effective and quickest option. If other components fail or the device has multiple critical faults, we’ll advise whether repair or replacement is best, with transparent pricing and options.
Q:
Fix multiple issues?
We can handle multiple repairs in a single visit, including battery, charging port, and screen checks. We offer a loyalty discount for multiple repairs on the same device and also provide bulk-device pricing for businesses within our Huddersfield networks.
