Galaxy S24+, from 2024, with a Dynamic AMOLED 2X display. Charging is over USB-C and it unlocks with an ultrasonic fingerprint reader under the display. It is rated IP68. The S24 in a larger body, three rear cameras, flat screen. SM-S926B is the model sold here.
The front camera shares its assembly with Face ID and the proximity sensor, so what else is failing tells us a lot.
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.
Two tiers, and you choose knowing which is which: a genuine Samsung service part where one is made for this component, or premium aftermarket where none is. The warranty is 360 days on either.
Nobody here will call a part original when it is not. If what fits your phone is premium aftermarket, you hear that word at the counter rather than reading it on a docket afterwards.
No additional paid work happens without your approval. If the diagnostic finds something behind the part we are replacing, we stop, explain it and confirm the cost first.
Dublin collection and return is available on weekdays if you cannot make it in. Nothing about the price or the cover changes because the courier brought it.
The front camera rides in the display assembly on most phones, so the tier conversation usually happens alongside the screen one.
Original or manufacturer-grade part

€120Premium aftermarket, tested to the same standard
Made to the original specification. On a front camera the difference is small and the saving is real.
€40The €40 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.
Tell us if face unlock stopped at the same time. On several phones that is a different and more involved part than the camera on its own, and it changes what we order.
Two minutes online, or straight in the door at 4 Richmond Road. The more you can say about when it started, the faster we get to the cause.
Nothing is opened or ordered until we know what failed. There is no charge for this and no obligation to go ahead afterwards.
You get the exact figure before any work starts. Nothing else happens without asking you first.
Done at our Drumcondra bench by the technicians who do this every day.
The repaired function and the things around it are checked before we call you.
Collected from Drumcondra, or returned to your door if we picked it up. Covered for 360 days.
A repair is not finished when the part is fitted. It is finished when the things around it have been checked.
Where it shares the assembly, tested before the phone goes back.
Both, because a module can pass one and fail the other.
Registered fresh and tested, since the hardware sits alongside the camera.
Where the phone has them, since they depend on more than the one lens.
We are replacing a part, not reading a phone. Your photos, messages and accounts are not something this job touches.
The one place it comes up is testing. A repair is not finished until it has been used, and using a locked device means a passcode. You are welcome to withhold it, and we will tell you which checks that leaves undone rather than quietly skipping them. A passcode you do give us lives on a paper docket that gets shredded, never in a database.
Back it up first if you can. A device that has taken a knock has had its storage shaken whether or not anything looks wrong, and a backup is free insurance against the day that matters.
After any repair, ours included, work on the assumption that the device is no longer water resistant.
The rating on the box was measured once, on a sealed unit, in controlled conditions. It was never a promise about the device three years later. Adhesive hardens, seals compress and a single drop can break the seal without leaving a mark you would notice.
We reseal with fresh adhesive and it does a real job: rain, splashes and a wet counter are all fine. A submerged phone is not, and we would rather say that plainly than let you find out.
If yours goes near water regularly, say so at the counter and we will tell you what the adhesive covers and what it does not.
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.
Same repair price and the same 360-day warranty on all three. The only thing that changes is how the device travels.
€40, 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.
Usually same day. If the diagnostic turns up something else, or a part has to be ordered, we tell you before you commit rather than after.
On most models the front camera and the Face ID components are separate parts in one assembly, so the camera can be replaced without touching Face ID. We check yours before we start and tell you if that is not true of your model.
Sometimes, and not always. The dot projector is paired to your phone at the factory, so if that specific component has failed it often cannot be replaced with a working one. We will tell you straight rather than charging you to find out.
On most phones it is mounted in the display assembly rather than the body, so it comes out with the screen. That is also why it sometimes stops working after a screen repair done badly.
Usually yes. The camera is its own module inside the assembly and it can be swapped on its own.
A front camera module is one of the cheaper parts in a phone, so on most models yes. We will say where it is not.

Every device is tested before we quote, so you are not paying for a part that was never the problem.
Genuine or OEM-grade components chosen for your model. We tell you which is going in before we start.
Hardware-only repairs. We never read, copy or move anything on your device.
If we cannot repair it, there is nothing to pay. No diagnostic fee, no handling charge.
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!
Bought a phone at imend, Drumcondra, near DCU. What could have been a difficult experience for an untechical minded person like myself was made so easy by the very helpful staff member who ensured my phone was up and running smoothly with everything working well before I left the shop.
Very good customer service very good products I recommend
Went in to get my phone fixed last week, great service, friendly staff
Excellent service pleasure to deal with this is my 3rd time purchasing a phone from them.
Walk in to Drumcondra without an appointment, or book online and we will have the part ready.
