Samsung has announced that Galaxy device owners in the US can now make their own repairs to the Galaxy S20 and Galaxy S21 families, as well as the Galaxy Tab S7+, although the Galaxy S22 is absent for now. 

The new self-repair program is being delivered in collaboration with online repair community iFixit and allows consumers wishing to make their own repairs to purchase genuine device parts and easy-to-use repair tools, at the same price offered to Samsung’s affiliated repair providers.
