About Our Speaker Repair Repair Service

We repair Galaxy A8 (2018) Speaker Issues by first pinpointing whether the problem is the main speaker, the earpiece, or a faulty flex cable. The process starts with a FREE DIAGNOSIS to confirm the fault, followed by a precise replacement that typically takes 30-60 minutes. We use OEM-grade parts or better, sourced from trusted suppliers and tested before fitting. After replacement, we conduct rigorous audio tests at multiple volume levels, ensure balanced output, and verify no distortion. You’ll receive a simple playback check before you leave.
- Our repairs use high-quality parts that meet or exceed original specifications, with full traceability and supplier warranties.
- We offer a 12-month warranty on standard repairs and a 24-month option on Premium, with no hidden fees and a free diagnostic if you change your mind after the test.
- Our technicians complete a comprehensive post-repair test to confirm loudness, clarity, and the absence of crackling or distortion, so you can trust the sound on every call and playlist.

Areas we cover locally include Marsh, Town Centre, Brighouse, Almondbury, Lindley, Moldgreen, Lockwood, Birkby, Dalton, and surrounding areas. Transport is easy: Huddersfield train station is a 10-minute walk away, with several bus routes (363, 364, 353) stopping nearby.

Expert Advice & Tips

Common causes of this issue:
- Water damage from spills, rain, or sweat can corrode speaker contacts and blow the diaphragm, leading to crackling, buzzing, or silence.
- Dust, lint, or pocket debris can block sound pathways and muffle audio output.
- Loose connections or a damaged flex cable can disconnect the speaker from the main board, causing intermittent sound or no sound at all.
- A degraded amplifier or PCB fault can manifest as distorted or quiet audio even after a physical repair.
- Normal wear over time can reduce speaker efficiency, especially on older models like the Galaxy A8 (2018).

Prevention tips:
- Use a protective case and screen protector to reduce shocks and moisture exposure.
- Avoid exposing your device to liquids; wipe and dry immediately if splashed.
- Keep the device clean; use compressed air to remove dust from speaker grills monthly.
- Don’t turn the volume past the device’s safe limit; frequent loud playback can shorten speaker life.
- Schedule regular checks if the device is used for music or calls all day.

When to repair vs replace:
- Repair if the device powers normally and the issue is isolated to the speaker area with no other hardware faults.
- Repair if the repair cost is substantially lower than replacement, and the mainboard shows no broader damage.
- Replace if multiple components fail or the speaker cannot be restored to full quality after a diagnostic test.
- Replace if water damage is extensive and corrosion affects core circuits or the main speaker driver.
- Replace if the device cannot hold a charge or maintains critical software instability after multiple repairs.

What to look for in a quality repair service:
- Clear, upfront diagnostic process with a written quote and no hidden fees.
- Transparent use of parts (OEM-grade preferred) with supplier warranties.
- Demonstrated testing procedures that verify audio quality under real-world conditions.
- A warranty longer than the core Apple standard (we offer 12-24 months depending on tier).
- Local knowledge of Huddersfield and convenient service options (walk-in, mobile, mail-in).
Red flags to avoid:
- No written estimate or vague pricing; pressure to proceed without a quote.
- Unclear warranty terms or a very short coverage period.
- Pushy upsells or replacements not backed by diagnostics.
- Poor reviews or inconsistent workmanship.
- Delays without clear communication about timing.

Maintenance guidance after repair:
- Test audio immediately after repair and again after 24 hours of normal use.
- Keep the device dry and free from moisture exposure.
- Use a case that protects the top and bottom speaker grills from impact.
- Schedule periodic checks if you rely on your phone for daily calls or music.

What Our Customers Say

A
Alex from Huddersfield
Huddersfield

I live on Marsh Lane in Marsh and the Galaxy A8 speaker issue was fixed in under an hour at iRepair Guys Marsh. The price was fair, the sound is crystal clear again, and the team took time to test mic and earpiece so nothing was left messing up after the repair. Great service right here in Huddersfield.

Priya Patel - Business owner
Huddersfield

As a small business with staff in Town Centre and Brighouse, we rely on mobile devices daily. iRepair Guys fixed a Galaxy A8 speaker issue across multiple phones during a lunch break. They were reliable, offered a fair discount for multiple devices, and the work held up—our team could make calls clearly again the same day.

Jamie - Student
Huddersfield

Living near Almondbury, I needed a quick fix on a student budget. The speaker sounded muffled, but after the repair at iRepair Guys, the Galaxy A8 is loud and clear. Student discounts helped a lot, and Apple Store would have charged much more for the same result.

D
Daniel from Lindley
Near Huddersfield

I sent my Galaxy A8 to be repaired via their mail-in option after a busy week in Moldgreen. Turnaround was fast, pricing transparent, and the speaker is working perfectly again. It felt like a local service with the convenience of post, right from Lindley to your door.

Nina - Professional
Huddersfield

As a professional who needs devices up and running, same-day service was a lifesaver. The tech visited our office near Lockwood and repaired two Galaxy A8 devices with zero downtime. High-quality parts, friendly service, and a price that beats Apple for the same fix.

The Patel Family
Huddersfield

We had multiple Galaxy A8 phones across our family in Dalton and Almondbury, and iRepair Guys handled them all in one visit. The loyalty discount was a nice touch, and the repairs were solid—no issues with calls or music since. Very convenient and trustworthy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Pricing & Value

Q:

How much does this repair cost?

A:

Pricing for the Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) speaker issue is quoted after assessment. Our current pricing framework reflects our standard service price of £0.00, which covers diagnostic assessment and initial evaluation. Once the technician identifies what’s needed, you’ll receive a fixed quote for any replacement parts and labour. This approach keeps you in control and avoids surprise costs. For every device fixed at iRepair Guys, you benefit from the same transparent process, with a clear, itemised quote before any work begins.

Q:

Why cheaper than Apple?

A:

We operate with lean processes, local presence, and a focus on rapid, expert repairs. Our technicians work with Samsung devices daily, sourcing compatible parts quickly and testing thoroughly before returning the device to you. The result is faster turnaround, direct control over parts, and fewer overheads than Apple Stores. That combination delivers real savings while maintaining high quality and reliability for Galaxy A8 speaker issues.

Q:

Any hidden costs?

A:

No. We promote complete transparency: the diagnostic is part of the quoted price, and there are no hidden fees for labour or core components. You’ll see a clear breakdown in your quote before we start. If a more economical repair path exists, we’ll explain it and compare it to a full replacement so you can choose the best option for your needs.

Q:

Payment plans or discounts?

A:

We offer straightforward pricing with discounts for multi-device repairs. Students, businesses, and loyalty customers can access special rates. Payment is accepted on-site via the usual methods, and quotes are honoured in full with no hidden add-ons. Our aim is to make Galaxy A8 speaker fixes affordable across Marsh, Town Centre, and surrounding areas, with the confidence of a reliable local partner.

Quality & Process

Q:

Parts quality?

A:

We prioritise OEM-grade or equivalent quality parts for Samsung Galaxy devices. Every replacement speaker component is tested for compatibility, audio clarity, and durability before installation. Our quality checks also include microphone tests, earpiece performance, and speaker functionality to ensure the device operates as intended after the repair. Parts are sourced from reputable suppliers to maintain device integrity and preserve overall performance.

Q:

How long does repair take?

A:

Most Galaxy A8 speaker repairs are completed in 30 to 60 minutes on-site, with same-day options available in Huddersfield. If you’re visiting from Marsh, Town Centre, or nearby areas, you can expect a quick turnaround while you wait. For mail-in or drop-off, we provide clear estimates of turnaround once we’ve assessed the device, ensuring you know exactly when to expect your repaired phone back.

Q:

Will features work after? (Face ID, etc.)

A:

When we repair the speaker, it doesn’t impact other features like Face ID or camera functions, provided the device’s core components aren’t affected. We handle the assembly with care, reassemble connectors securely, and run extensive post-repair testing to confirm all features operate as expected. If an issue arises, our warranty covers the necessary follow-up inspections to ensure full functionality.

Q:

Success rate?

A:

We’ve repaired 5000+ devices with an average rating of 4.9 and a 95% same-day service success rate.

Warranty

Q:

What warranty?

A:

All Galaxy A8 speaker repairs include a 12-month warranty on parts and workmanship. This covers any defect arising from the repair work under normal use. If a fault reappears due to the repair, contact us and we’ll arrange a follow-up without additional labour charges. We stand behind our repairs with a robust warranty to ensure you have peace of mind after leaving our Huddersfield workshop.

Q:

If something goes wrong?

A:

If you experience issues after a repair, bring the device back or contact us. We’ll inspect the device and identify whether the fault relates to the original issue or a new fault. Our team will repair or replace components as required under warranty, with a straightforward claim process. Your satisfaction is our priority, and we’ll make it right promptly.

Q:

Affect manufacturer warranty?

A:

Our repairs are carried out to maintain compatibility with manufacturer specifications. In most circumstances, having our authorised repair work performed does not void your manufacturer warranty, especially when original parts are used and the repair follows official guidelines. If you’re in doubt, we can provide a detailed assessment to help you understand any potential impact and how we mitigate it.

Technical

Q:

Device-specific technical question

A:

Galaxy A8 speaker issues often stem from worn-out speaker diaphragms, loose connectors, or degraded microphone paths. Our technicians perform a targeted diagnostic: checking the front and bottom speaker paths, verifying the earpiece, testing the mic, and ensuring the device’s software isn’t muting or rerouting audio. We then replace the faulty component with a tested part and re-test using structured audio tests to verify full functionality.

Q:

What causes this issue?

A:

Common causes include water exposure, dust ingress, or wear from daily use leading to degraded contacts or speaker membrane failure. Over time, vibrations and heat can loosen connectors. We also check for software-related audio routing problems that can mimic hardware faults. Regular maintenance and protective cases help reduce the risk, but wear and tear on a Galaxy A8 speaker is a frequent reason for a repair like this.

Q:

Repair or replace device?

A:

For speaker issues, repair is typically the most cost-effective option with faster turnaround and preserved device integrity. If the speaker assembly or internal connectors are damaged beyond practical repair, replacement parts restore full audio quality. We provide honest recommendations after diagnostic checks, outlining the benefits of repair versus replacement based on the device’s overall condition and your budget.

Q:

Fix multiple issues?

A:

If your Galaxy A8 has multiple issues (speaker, microphone, battery, or charging), we can consolidate repairs into a single visit to save time and cost. Our multi-repair discount applies when more than one fault is addressed in one session. This approach minimizes downtime and ensures the device leaves in optimal condition, backed by our warranty and post-repair testing.
