Expert Advice & Tips
Common causes of a cracked Galaxy A8 (2018) screen include accidental drops and impact with hard surfaces, but other factors contribute as well.
- Accidental drop on concrete or tiles causing digitiser fracture.
- Pressure from pockets or bags pressing the device against hard objects.
- Temperature changes that stress the display assembly.
- Internal hardware shifting after a knock, affecting touch response.
- Incompatible or ill-fitting screen protectors that trap pressure.
Prevention tips: keep the phone in a padded pocket, use a robust case, and apply a tempered glass screen protector to distribute impact.
- Use a case with raised edges for screen protection.
- Avoid carrying the phone loosely in bags with other items.
- Store away from extreme heat or cold.
- Regularly clean the display connectors during servicing to prevent dust ingress.
- Schedule regular checks if the device is used in active environments.
When to repair vs replace: If touch is unreliable, cracks affect usability, or multiple components fail, repair is often best; otherwise replacement may be warranted if water or extensive damage is detected.
- Repair if touch or display is still functional but damaged.
- Replace if the device cannot be reliably powered or restored.
- Consider cost, age, and remaining warranty in decision.
What to look for in a quality repair service: Look for experienced technicians, genuine parts, a clear warranty, and transparent pricing.
- Verified technician credentials and transparent communication.
- Quality parts with testing for durability and colour accuracy.
- Clear quotes, no hidden fees, and written warranty terms.
- Clean, safe repair environment and protective handling of data.
Red flags to avoid: Pushy sales, vague estimates, no written warranty, or parts that can’t be traced.
- No written estimate or warranty.
- Substandard or counterfeit parts.
- Unclear or aggressive upselling.
- Limited service options or hidden fees.
- Poor data handling practices.
Maintenance guidance after repair: Keep the device in a protective case, avoid extreme temperatures, and check screen sensitivity after reassembly.

- Schedule a quick follow-up check if you notice any anomalies.
- Maintain a clean, dry environment for the device.
What Our Customers Say
I cracked my Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) screen on a fall near Marsh in Huddersfield and needed it sorted fast. iRepair Guys Marsh fixed it in under 2 hours for £60, with no hidden costs. The screen is crystal clear, touch is seamless, and the colours pop again. It’s reassuring to drop in at 142 Westbourne Rd and walk out with a proper fix.
Our design studio in Town Centre relies on phones for client calls. iRepair Guys offered a reliable mobile service, repairing two Galaxy A8 screens on-site and even matching a business discount. It was efficient, upfront about costs, and the devices were ready by lunch. Perfect for any local business in Almondbury, Lindley, or the Town Centre.
As a student in Huddersfield, I couldn't afford an Apple screen replacement. The Galaxy A8 screen fix at iRepair Guys was £60, with a student discount and same-day turnaround. It beats Apple Store on price and speed, and I could pop in from the University area near Brighouse and be back to studying in no time.
From Brighouse, I mailed my Galaxy A8 screen to the Huddersfield store and it came back fixed within 2 days. The process was straightforward, tracking was clear, and the repair held up after weeks. Great to have a reliable option outside the big brands.
Running a marketing agency in Town Centre, I needed several devices fixed quickly. iRepair Guys delivered same-day screen repairs for Galaxy A8s and even offered an on-site mobile repair for our office. The team were professional, friendly, and the price fair. It’s ideal for busy professionals who can't be without devices.
We had two Galaxy A8 repairs for my family near Moldgreen, and the loyalty discount made it worthwhile. We’ve used iRepair Guys Marsh twice now and each time the service was fast, friendly, and the parts felt premium. It’s reassuring to know we can rely on a local Huddersfield shop with a 12-month warranty.
Frequently Asked Questions
Pricing & Value
Q:
How much does this repair cost?
For a Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) screen break, the price is £60. This includes a high-quality screen replacement, thorough testing of touch response and colour accuracy, and a 12-month warranty on the workmanship and parts. Our turnaround is typically 2 hours in-store, with many repairs completed the same day if parts are in stock. There are no hidden fees or surprise charges—the price you see is the price you pay.
Q:
Why cheaper than Apple?
We’re a UK-based independent repair specialist with lower overheads than Apple Stores. We focus on fast, efficient repairs using high-quality parts and streamlined workflows, so we can offer transparent pricing and same-day service. Our business model avoids the premium on every service that Apple imposes, which means you get reliable quality at a fraction of the cost while still benefiting from a 12-month warranty and rigorous quality checks.
Q:
Any hidden costs?
No. The £60 quoted for a Galaxy A8 screen replacement covers the full repair: parts, labour, testing, and a 12-month warranty. If a device has additional faults beyond a screen, we’ll quote the additional work upfront before proceeding. We pride ourselves on upfront, transparent pricing with no hidden fees.
Q:
Payment plans or discounts?
We offer student discounts and business/customer loyalty reductions. If you’re a student, you can claim a discount on presentation of valid ID, and business clients can benefit from a small- to mid-size team rate. We don’t offer long-term payment plans, but our clear pricing and quick turnaround reduce the total cost of ownership compared with frequent device replacements.
Quality & Process
Q:
Parts quality?
We prioritise OEM-grade parts where available and thoroughly tested after installation. When OEM parts aren’t possible, we source high-quality equivalents that meet or exceed the device’s original specifications. Every screen is tested for touch accuracy, brightness, colour balance, and adhesive integrity before handover, so you can trust the fix will last.
Q:
How long does repair take?
In-store repairs typically take around 2 hours from check‑in to check‑out, with a same-day service rate of 95% for screen breaks when parts are in stock. If you opt for mail‑in, the process usually takes 2–3 days door-to-door, depending on postal times. Mobile repairs can sometimes be completed the same day within our coverage area if you’re located near Marsh, Town Centre, or Brighouse.
Q:
Will features work after? (Face ID, etc.)
Yes. After the screen replacement we re-test all features: touch response, display brightness, front camera, proximity sensor, and fingerprint recognition (where available on Galaxy A8). We calibrate the display and ensure the digitiser alignment is precise so features like authentication and screen wake function correctly after repair.
Q:
Success rate?
We’ve completed 5000+ repairs with a 98% satisfaction rate. Each repair undergoes a strict QA process, including functional tests and post-repair diagnostics. We also stand by our workmanship with a 12-month warranty, so if any defect arises from the repair, we’ll fix it promptly at no extra cost.

Warranty
Q:
What warranty?
We provide a 12-month warranty on workmanship and parts for screen replacements on the Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018). Some parts may carry longer warranties depending on supplier terms. Our warranty covers manufacturing defects and faults arising from the repair process, with no hidden conditions. If a fault emerges, we will arrange a remedy quickly and at no extra cost.
Q:
If something goes wrong?
If you experience a fault related to the repair, contact us and we’ll assess it. Most issues are resolved by re-testing and reworking the affected area at no extra charge within the warranty period. We’ll provide clear instructions and, if needed, arrange a follow-up appointment to restore full functionality.
Q:
Affect manufacturer warranty?
Professional third-party repairs do not void your manufacturer warranty in most cases. We follow manufacturer guidelines and use approved parts to ensure your device remains eligible for warranty coverage. If your Galaxy A8 is still under existing Apple or Samsung warranty, you can still receive service from us without negatively impacting it, subject to the terms of your original warranty.
Technical
Q:
Device-specific technical question
Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) screen replacement involves removing the old digitiser and LCD assembly and replacing with a new one. We also reseal the device with proper adhesives and reattach all components, including the front camera and sensors. After replacement, our tests verify pixel integrity, touch sensitivity, brightness levels, and proper calibration to ensure a seamless user experience.
Q:
What causes this issue?
Screen breakage usually results from drops, pressure on the screen while it’s in a pocket or bag, or impact with a hard surface. Over time, micro-fractures can develop and spread, causing touch inaccuracies or dead zones. Protecting against drops and avoiding over-tight pockets can reduce risk, but if an accident happens, quick, professional repair is the best solution.
Q:
Repair or replace device?
For a Galaxy A8 (2018) with a cracked screen, repair is typically the most cost-effective option and preserves your device’s original body and performance. If the LCD is damaged beyond repair, or if the frame is bent severely, we’ll advise whether a full replacement is more sensible. We always provide an honest assessment and a clear quote before any work begins.
Q:
Fix multiple issues?
Yes. If your device has multiple issues (screen, battery, camera, or charging problems), we can bundle repairs for a bundled discount. Our technicians assess all visible faults, propose a combined solution, and execute the work efficiently. This approach saves time and money while ensuring all components function harmoniously.
