The Galaxy Z Fold 7 came out in 2025, with a 8.0 inch inner, 6.5 inch cover Dynamic AMOLED 2X, both screens display and the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chip. It charges over USB-C and it unlocks with a fingerprint reader in the side button. There is an armour aluminium frame, and it is rated IP48. The thinnest Fold Samsung has made, with a wider cover screen than earlier models and a 200MP main camera. The one sold in Ireland is SM-F966B.

What this fixes
The faults a front camera repair puts right.
- The selfie camera is blackThe rear camera works and the front does not. The module or its connection.
- Face or fingerprint unlock has stopped working tooImportant to mention. The the biometric sensor components share the assembly, and that changes the job.
- The screen stays lit against your ear on a callThe proximity sensor sits in the same assembly and is a common casualty.
- Face unlock has stopped as wellOn phones where the unlock hardware sits beside the front camera, one impact takes both. Say so, because it changes the part.
- A dark ring or vignette around every selfieThe lens cover or the module seating. Both are in the display assembly on most phones.
- It works in one app and not anotherSoftware before hardware. Check permissions before booking anything.
Before you spend anything
Is it definitely the front camera?
The front camera shares its assembly with Face ID and the proximity sensor, so what else is failing tells us a lot.
IfThe camera is black but Face ID still works
That points at the camera module alone, which is the simpler and cheaper of the two jobs.
IfBoth the camera and Face ID have stopped
The whole assembly or its connector. Worth a diagnostic first, because Face ID components are paired to the phone and not every fault is fixable by swapping a part.
IfIt is hazy rather than black
Look for moisture behind the lens. If the phone has been wet this is a liquid damage assessment first.
IfIt stopped right after a screen repair somewhere else
Very likely a connector, because the front camera rides in the display assembly. Worth opening and checking rather than replacing.
IfOnly certain apps see it
That is permissions, not hardware, and it costs nothing to check first.
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.
We will not describe a part as genuine, original or Samsung certified unless that is what is going into your phone. If the honest answer is premium aftermarket, that is what we say at the counter.
What the €120 includes
- The replacement front camera assembly fitted
- Proximity and ambient light sensors checked
- Face ID tested where it is part of the assembly
- 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.
If getting here is the problem, we collect and return across Dublin from Monday to Friday. It costs the same repair price and carries the same 360-day warranty.
Choose the part
Two tiers, named before you agree.
The front camera rides in the display assembly on most phones, so the tier conversation usually happens alongside the screen one.
Value Edition
Premium aftermarket, tested to the same standard
Made to the original specification. On a front camera the difference is small and the saving is real.
Priced at the counterThe €120 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.
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
Before a part is ordered we establish what has really gone wrong. It is free, and it is the reason people do not leave here having paid for the wrong thing.
You approve the price
The price is confirmed to you before anything begins, and it does not move afterwards unless you agree to something else.
The repair is carried out
It stays in the shop. The work is done on our own bench by the technicians who do it every day of the week.
Bench testing
The repaired function and the things around it are checked before we call you.
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.
Photo and video
Both, because a module can pass one and fail the other.
Proximity
Confirmed on a real call with the phone at your ear, which is the only way to know.
Auto brightness
The ambient light sensor sits in the same strip and is easy to disturb.
Face unlock where the device has it
Registered fresh and tested, since the hardware sits alongside the camera.
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.
What about the water resistance?
Treat the device as no longer water resistant after any repair, including this one.
An IP rating is measured on a brand new, factory sealed device in a laboratory. It is a description of how that device left the factory, not a property it keeps. Heat, age and everyday knocks degrade the seal long before anybody opens it, which is why phones that have never been repaired still let water in.
Opening a device means cutting through adhesive. We refit with fresh adhesive, which gives you back a physical seal that keeps rain and splashes out. What we will not do is claim the original rating is restored, because there is no way for us or for any independent shop in Ireland to test that.
If the device lives near water, tell us when you book. It changes what we recommend and it is a two minute conversation rather than a surprise afterwards.
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.

€120, 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.
Yes, when the job is done properly. On most phones the unlock hardware sits in the same assembly and has to be handled with the camera. That handling is what goes wrong in a rushed repair.
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.

Customer reviews
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!
Best place, best people
Caz is a legend gave me a good deal looked after me good fella thanks mate
I had a great experience with the guys, they helped me get started with my new phone, they didn't push me to go for the most expensive items, they respected what I was looking for.
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.
