Use this guide to replace the screen in your Samsung Galaxy S23.
This guide shows how to replace the screen on its own. If your replacement part is a screen that's pre-installed on a frame, follow this guide.
This process will destroy your old screen. Don't use this guide if you're trying to harvest a screen.
Note: Retaining water resistance after the repair will depend on how well you reapply the adhesive, but your device will lose its IP (Ingress Protection) rating.
