Can I fix my cracked Galaxy Note 20 myself?
You may be able to fix the cracked screen on your Galaxy Note 20, but there is a slightly different version of this question you should be asking — whether you should. The answer here is a firm NO.
You should not attempt to repair your Galaxy Note 20 yourself because you may end up doing more damage, which could lead to your phone being completely unusable. The techs in trusted repair shops have the necessary experience and the proper tools. These shops also use quality replacement parts, which in some cases, means OEM replacement parts that you may not be able to get on your own.
Is Samsung Galaxy Note 20 screen repair worth it?
Yes, it is worth replacing a damaged screen on a Galaxy Note 20. Typically, you have three options when it comes to a damaged smartphone — repair, replace, or upgrade. In the case of a newer model smartphone like the Galaxy Note 20, it would be more expensive to replace it with a gently used model. In addition, given the Galaxy Note 20 is the newest model in the Note lineup, upgrading to a newer model Galaxy Note just isn’t possible.
One exception we can see with the ‘upgrade’ plan is if you broke the screen on your Galaxy Note 20 and plan to use this as an excuse to upgrade to the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra.
