About Our Device Diagnostics Repair Service
From the moment you hand us your Galaxy A8 Star, our team focuses on accuracy and speed. We perform a thorough diagnosis to identify the root cause and provide a transparent quote before any work begins. Our repairs cover common Samsung issues such as screens, LCDs, digitizers, battery replacements, charging ports, cameras, speakers and water exposure, plus software glitches that freeze or crash apps. For diagnosis, we run Samsung-validated tests and capture clear photos of any damaged components. Every repair uses OEM-compatible parts where available, with strict quality controls and traceable sourcing. Our warranty is stronger than Apple’s 90-day policy, with 12-24 months depending on tier. In short, you’ll get quality, certainty and value, not surprise fees.

We confirm an appointment time that fits your schedule and share a clear, no-surprise plan for diagnosis before any hands-on work begins. We aim to complete booking 2 minutes.
2 minutes
Free Diagnostic
Our Free Diagnostic session is thorough yet no-obligation. A technician visually inspects the device, tests essential functions, and uses Samsung-approved diagnostic software to identify faults. We provide a transparent estimate before any parts are ordered or work starts. You’ll know what’s needed, why it’s needed, and how long it will take, with no surprises. We’ll quote without hidden fees upfront.
5-10 minutes
Professional Repair
Our Professional Repair stage replaces or fixes the defective component using skilled technicians with Samsung experience. We carefully remove damaged parts, install OEM-compatible replacements, and reassemble with precision. Each step is logged for traceability, and you’ll hear a precise ETA. We run functional tests, camera checks, sound, touchscreen and charging port verification to guarantee reliability before handover. You'll be satisfied face-to-face.
30-60 minutes
Quality Testing
Our Quality Testing is exhaustive and repeated. We re-check the device’s core functions after any repair and confirm calibration, display alignment and touch response. We also test data transmission, hotspot tethering, Wi-Fi stability and signal performance. Only when all checks pass do we sign off, issue the warranty, and hand back a fully verified device for your peace mind.
10-15 minutes
Collection & Warranty
Collection & Warranty means you’re fully informed at pickup. We summarise the repair performed, show any replaced components, and provide a written warranty covering parts and labour—typically 12-24 months depending on the tier. You can collect at the Marsh store or arrange delivery, and for mobile repairs we can meet you at work or campus. We’ll arrange pickup at convenience.

What Our Customers Say
I dropped my Galaxy A8 Star near Marsh on Westbourne Rd and feared a long repair. The team gave a fast diagnosis and had it fixed the same afternoon. The quality is excellent and the quote was clear from the start—much better value than the Apple Store queues in Town Centre.
We rely on mobiles at our office by Brighouse and the mobile repair team arrived within hours. Efficient, reliable, and with a business-friendly discount. Diagnosis completed quickly and the device works perfectly on return—far more flexible than visiting an Apple Store in Town Centre.
As a student in Almondbury, I appreciated the affordable diagnosis service. They explained everything, and the Galaxy A8 Star was up and running by lunchtime. Much cheaper than Apple and no hidden extras, plus the team were friendly in Moldgreen.
I mailed my Galaxy A8 Star from Dalton for diagnosis and was impressed with the turnaround. They kept me informed and the repair worked perfectly on delivery—no fuss, and it was more reliable than Apple support.
We needed a same-day diagnosis for a client in Lockwood. The iRepair Guys team came to the office and diagnosed on the spot, saving time and getting the Galaxy A8 Star back to normal fast. Excellent service with less downtime than an Apple Store visit.
We have several Galaxy devices around Birkby and Dalton. They diagnosed and fixed all phones in one visit with a loyalty discount. Great for families and far more convenient than visiting Apple stores in Town Centre.

Diagnosis for a Galaxy A8 Star is provided with no upfront diagnostic fee, as part of our same-day service. We focus on efficient assessment and transparent pricing for the repair work, keeping quotes clear and realistic. Our aim is to get your device back in use quickly without the surprise costs sometimes seen at other shops.
Q:
Why cheaper than Apple?
We operate with a streamlined team and local store network in Huddersfield, including Marsh and Town Centre locations, which reduces overheads. This allows us to offer faster turnaround and direct pricing without the premium often charged at Apple Stores. We also avoid upselling and provide straightforward diagnostic reviews.
Q:
Any hidden costs?
No. We maintain complete transparency: the diagnostic phase has no extra charges, and any repair quote includes the exact parts and labour required. If you approve, the price you see is the price you pay. We do not add unexpected service fees or optional add-ons after the fact.

Quality & Process
Q:
Parts quality?
We source OEM-grade parts where available, with strict QA checks. Our Galaxy A8 Star components are selected for compatibility and durability, and we test every device after repair to ensure features like the camera and fingerprint sensor work as intended.
Q:
How long does repair take?
Most Galaxy A8 Star diagnoses and repairs are completed the same day, often within 30-60 minutes when parts are in stock. In some cases, a part may arrive from our Huddersfield workshop within 24 hours, but we always aim for next-day completion where possible.
Q:
Will features work after? (Face ID, etc.)
Yes. We carefully preserve device functionality such as Face Recognition and biometric features. After replacing screens or batteries, we run full validation tests to ensure sensors, cameras and authentication features remain fully operational.
Q:
Success rate?
We achieve a 98% success rate on diagnostic and repair jobs across our two Huddersfield locations, with a comprehensive post-repair testing protocol to catch any issues before you pick up the device.

Warranty
Q:
What warranty?
We provide a minimum 12-month warranty on diagnosed repairs, with longer coverage on certain parts. This warranty covers workmanship and the components installed during the Galaxy A8 Star diagnosis.
Q:

If you experience issues stemming from the diagnosis within the warranty period, bring the device to any iRepair Guys location in Huddersfield or request a mobile visit. We will diagnose at no extra charge and rectify the problem promptly.
Q:
Affect manufacturer warranty?
Our work is designed to be compliant with manufacturer warranties. Datapoints and diagnostics are performed without bypassing supported features, meaning your Galaxy A8 Star remains eligible for manufacturer warranty protections where applicable.
Technical
Q:
Device-specific technical question
For the Galaxy A8 Star, common diagnostic checks include screen integrity tests, battery health assessment, charging port function, and software health checks. We use specialised diagnostics to identify the root cause and confirm post-repair functionality.
Q:
What causes this issue?
Screen failures and battery degradation are typically caused by heavy usage, heat exposure, and charging habits. Water exposure and firmware issues can also lead to odd behaviours that a full diagnostic will pinpoint.
Q:
Repair or replace device?
Most Galaxy A8 Star diagnose-and-repair jobs are cost-effective alternatives to full replacement. If the screen, battery, or charging port is viable to fix with OEM-grade parts, we proceed with repair rather than recommending a new device.
Q:
Fix multiple issues?
If several issues are detected, we provide a combined repair plan with a single quotation. For multiple necessary repairs, we offer volume discounts and coordinate parts sourcing to complete the work efficiently at a reduced total cost.
