• There will be a Samsung self-repair service launching this year in collaboration with iFixit.
• You’ll be able to order genuine Samsung parts for phones/tablets and then make the repairs yourself.
• There is no name for the service yet, nor is there a planned launch date.

If your smartphone stops working correctly, your repair options are usually limited. You can take it to a third-party service center, but that will usually take a long time, cost a lot of money, or both. You can get a genuine repair through the OEM, but that usually involves mailing your phone somewhere, which leaves you without one for the time being.

For a long time, right-to-repair enthusiasts have clamored for an alternative solution: fixing it yourself. Now, through a new Samsung self-repair service, Samsung fans will be able to do just that.
