The cost of repairing expensive phones is also high, but Samsung has given great relief to customers of its high-end smartphones. We’re talking about Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 customers. The company launched these two new foldable phones to the world at the Unpacked event this week. To encourage customers to purchase the new foldable phone, the company is significantly reducing repair costs under the Samsung Care+ subscription plan this year. The Samsung Care+ plan includes coverage for drops, spills, and cracked screens. Eligible customers can replace the damaged screen of the new foldable phone by paying $29 (around Rs 2,300).
Samsung’s foldable phones come with one year of Samsung Care+ accidental damage protection. As mentioned, it covers devices against accidental damage, including screen replacement, water damage, and back cover replacement. However, after the warranty period, users will need to pay the full price for the folding screen replacement.
