iMEND Premium
Original or manufacturer-grade part
The manufacturer's own cell. On an iPhone it keeps the battery health readout working without a service notice, which is the practical difference most people notice.

The Galaxy A35 came out in 2024, with a 6.6 inch Super AMOLED display. Charging is over USB-C and it unlocks with an optical fingerprint reader under the display. There is 50MP main, 8MP ultra wide and 5MP macro on the back, and it is rated IP67. Three separate lenses on a glass back with a plastic frame. Very close to the A55 externally, and it does not share the A55's parts. The one sold in Ireland is SM-A356B.

What this fixes
The faults a battery replacement puts right.
- Shuts down with charge still showingThe battery cannot deliver the current the device asks for under load, so it shuts down rather than corrupting anything. It often happens at 20 or 30 percent.
- Dies in the coldChemistry, not a fault in itself. A healthy battery slows in the cold and recovers; a worn one drops off a cliff and does not come back until it is charged.
- Hot while charging, or hot doing nothingWorth looking at rather than living with. Heat is what ages a battery fastest, so a hot battery gets worse quicker.
- The percentage jumps aroundThe gauge has lost track of a cell whose capacity has changed. It is the battery rather than a software bug.
- It only lasts in warm roomsCold makes a worn cell fail sooner. A healthy battery does not care much about an Irish winter.
- The phone is hot on the back doing very littleA cell working harder than it should. Heat and short life travel together.
Before you spend anything
Is it definitely the battery?
A battery is the right answer most of the time, and it is worth ruling out the two things that imitate it.
IfIt drains fast and Battery Health still reads above 85 percent
Worth a diagnostic. A board fault or something staying awake in the background looks identical from the outside, and a battery would not fix either.
IfThe phone is dead and will not power on at all
Start with a diagnostic rather than a battery. A dead phone can be the battery, the port or the board, and we would rather find out before you pay for a part.
IfBattery health reads above eighty percent and it still dies
Look at what is running before replacing the cell. A background process empties a healthy battery just as effectively as a worn one does.
IfIt got much worse right after a software update
Give it a few days. Reindexing after an update genuinely does flatten a phone, and it settles.
IfCharging is slow as well as short
Check the port before the battery. A dirty port charges slowly and a worn cell empties quickly, and they are two different repairs.
If you are not sure which of these you have, that is what the free diagnostic is for. It costs nothing and it is the step that stops people paying for the wrong repair.
What parts do we fit?
Genuine Samsung service parts where they exist for the component, and premium aftermarket where they do not. You are told which one your repair uses before you agree to it, and the 360-day warranty is the same either way.
The words genuine and Samsung certified mean something specific and we only use them when they are true of the part in front of us. Anything else is described as premium aftermarket, plainly.
- A Galaxy battery comes out through the back, not the front. The rear glass is glued on and has to be heated off first, then replaced with fresh adhesive, which is why it takes longer than an iPhone battery.
- Samsung uses strong adhesive under the cell itself. Getting it out without deforming it is the part of the job that takes the care.
What the €70 includes
- A new battery, fitted and cycled
- The old cell removed and recycled properly
- Charging, current draw and health checked after fitting
- 360-day warranty on the part and the workmanship
You will not find work on the bill you did not agree to. If something else shows up while the phone is open, we stop and ask rather than deciding for you.
A collection and return across Dublin can be added when you book. The repair price and the warranty are the same either way.
Choose the part
Two tiers, named before you agree.
On a battery the tier is not about how it looks. It is about whether the cell holds the capacity printed on it.
Value Edition
Premium aftermarket, tested to the same standard
A cell made to the original specification with cycle data behind it. We will fit this happily; what we will not fit is a cell nobody can tell us how it was stored or what it tested at.
Priced at the counterThe €70 on this page is our standard quote for this repair. Which tier suits your device is a conversation at the counter, and the price for each is on the table before you decide. The 360-day warranty is the same on both, because we would not offer a tier we did not think would last.
A cell sold as 3,300mAh that actually holds 2,900 shows full health on day one and falls off a cliff at eight months. That is the entire reason we are not the cheapest battery in Dublin.
How we do it
From the counter to back in your hand.
Tell us what it is doing
Walk in during opening hours or book ahead, whichever suits. Tell us what the device is actually doing rather than what you think the fix is.
Free diagnostic
We confirm what has actually failed before anything is ordered or opened. It costs nothing and it is the step that stops people paying for the wrong repair.
You approve the price
You get the exact figure before any work starts. Nothing else happens without asking you first.
The repair is carried out
Done at our Drumcondra bench by the technicians who do this every day.
Bench testing
We test what we replaced and everything that sits beside it, because that is where a rushed repair shows up.
Back in your hands
Yours again, from the counter or by courier, with 360 days of cover on the part and the work.
Before it goes back
What we test every time.
A repair is not finished when the part is fitted. It is finished when the things around it have been checked.
Health reporting
What the device reports about the new cell, so you know before you leave rather than a week later.
Charge rate under load
Measured with the phone working rather than idle, because that is where a weak cell shows itself.
Temperature during charge
A new cell that runs warm is a new cell we do not send out.
Seal and adhesive
Refitted with fresh adhesive so the phone closes the way it did before it was opened.
Will my data be safe?
Nothing about this repair requires reading what is on the device, and nobody here does.
Testing is a different matter. To prove a repair works we have to turn the device on and use it, which sometimes means asking for your passcode. Say no if you prefer and we will show you exactly which checks we cannot complete without it. Where you do give it, it is written on the paper docket and the docket is shredded. There is deliberately no field for a passcode in our system.
Take a backup before you come in. It is free, it takes two minutes on a device that still works, and it is the one thing nobody regrets having done.
Is it still water resistant afterwards?
Treat the phone as no longer water resistant after any repair, including ours.
Apple's IP68 rating is measured on a brand new, factory sealed phone under controlled laboratory conditions. It is not a permanent property of the device. The seal degrades with age, heat and everyday knocks long before anybody opens it.
Opening a phone means cutting through that seal. We refit the display with fresh adhesive, which restores a physical seal and keeps ordinary splashes and rain out. What we will not do is tell you it is back to IP68, because we have no way to test that and neither does any independent shop in Ireland.
If your phone lives near water, say so when you book and we will talk you through what the adhesive does and does not cover.
The 360-day warranty
Every completed repair is covered for 360 days on the part and the workmanship. If the display we fitted fails, or the fitting was at fault, we put it right at no charge.
What it does not cover is a new accident. A phone dropped again after the repair, fresh physical damage, liquid damage, or a fault in a part we did not touch, all sit outside it. That is the same limit any honest repair warranty has.
No fix, no fee. The diagnostic is free, and if the repair does not happen you pay nothing.
Three ways to get it to us
- Walk in to Drumcondra4 Richmond Road, Dublin 3. No appointment. Mon to Sat 10:00 to 18:00, closed Sunday. Most phone screens and batteries done in 15 to 45 minutes while you wait.
- We collect and returnDoor to door across Dublin, Monday to Friday, usually 2 to 4 working days. The repair takes the same time; the courier is the difference.
- Send it in yourselfPost it to the shop with a tracked, insured service and a note with your number. We cannot cover a parcel in transit, and that is the honest trade-off for the route existing.
Same repair price and the same 360-day warranty on all three. The only thing that changes is how the device travels.

€70, including the part, the fitting, the testing and the 360-day warranty. VAT is included. You get that figure confirmed before anything is opened, and if we cannot repair the phone you pay nothing.
15 to 45 minutes for most phones. If the diagnostic turns up something else, or a part has to be ordered, we tell you before you commit rather than after.
Most phone batteries are rated to hold about 80 percent of their original capacity after 400 to 500 full charge cycles, which for most people is two to three years. Heat shortens it, and so does leaving it on charge at high temperature.
Rarely, for a battery. A battery is the cheapest repair that makes an old phone feel new, and on most models it costs a fraction of a replacement handset. If we think you would be throwing good money after bad we will say so.
Treat it as urgent. Stop charging it, stop using it, and do not press on the back or try to lever the phone open. Bring it in and we will deal with it properly.
Some manufacturers pair the cell to the board and show a notice after any replacement, genuine or not. Everything works; it is a parts message. We tell you in advance if your model does it.
Yes, until it starts shutting down unexpectedly or the case stops sitting flat. Either of those is the point where it stops being a convenience question.

Excellent customer service bought my samsung A54 best price in dublin.
As I'm a lawyer, I need a reliable phone. For me, it's an office extension in my pocket. I decided to buy a Samsung S23 Ultra. I live in Drumcondra so being aware of their excellent reputation locally, I visited iMend last week. The manager and assistant could not have been more helpful. I bought the phone and it exceeds my expectations. On checking, the price was the lowest in Dublin. Anyone who needs a phone or a small electronic product will be well looked after by iMend. Great people to deal with!
