Partners Galaxy S3 screen cracked in 2 or 3 places after some clown barged into her at a bus stop last night.

Where's the best place to get it fixed - send it direct to Samsung? Mainstream mobile shop? Other?

Also, what would FM's say is the going rate to get it fixed?

Independent repairer, you'll be paying £120-£150 at a Samsung repairer or CPW.

The LCD is around £50-£65 at its cheapest, and then there's the labour to fit (£10-£30).

You might find a repairer with a second hand screen if you're lucky and the job should cost around £40-£60 depending on condition of the screen.

The S3 is only worth about £90 now so don't pay to much for the repair. You could buy another and sell the broken one as a cheaper option. With everything backed up to Google and an app like Helium y?it would be a pretty painless experience.
