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
Why people book a water damage treatment.
- It went in water and still worksThe most deceptive one. Corrosion starts immediately and keeps going, so a phone that survived the swim often fails days later.
- The screen is discoloured, patchy or flickeringLiquid under the display. The panel may be the least of it.
- The speaker is muffled or cracklingWater in the speaker mesh. Sometimes it clears, often it has already taken the driver.
- It behaved fine and then started restartingClassic delayed corrosion, usually one to three weeks after the event.
- It works now and it went in last weekThe most deceptive outcome there is. Corrosion started the moment it got wet and it does not stop on its own.
- It charges intermittently since the soakingCorrosion in the port, and every charge attempt makes it worse.
Before you spend anything
Is it definitely the liquid?
Liquid damage is the one repair where what you do in the first hour matters more than what we do afterwards.
IfIt went in salt water or anything sugary
Treat it as urgent. Salt and sugar are far more aggressive than clean water and the window before permanent damage is much shorter.
IfOnly one thing is wrong, like the speaker
Still assess the whole phone. One symptom after a soaking rarely means only one thing is affected.
IfIt went in salt water or anything sugary
Treat it as urgent. Both are far more aggressive than clean water and the window before permanent damage is much shorter.
IfOnly one thing is wrong, like the speaker
Have the whole device assessed anyway. One symptom after a soaking rarely means only one thing is affected.
IfThe data matters more than the phone
Say that first. Recovering the data and recovering the phone are sometimes different routes, and starting the wrong way round can cost you both.
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?
Where Samsung supplies a service part for this component, that is what goes in. Where it does not, we fit premium aftermarket and say so. Which of the two you are getting is settled before you agree to anything, and the 360-day warranty does not change between them.
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.
What the €35 includes
- Full disassembly and inspection of the board
- Ultrasonic cleaning of affected components
- A written assessment of what is recoverable before anything is charged for
- The cost of the assessment taken off the repair if you go ahead
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.
A collection and return across Dublin can be added when you book. The repair price and the warranty are the same either way.
How we do it
From the counter to back in your hand.
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 hear the number first. If it is not worth it to you, that is a perfectly good answer and it costs you nothing.
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
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.
Board inspection under magnification
Corrosion is visible long before it is fatal, and that is what decides whether the phone is worth repairing.
Power draw
Checked on the bench before the phone is ever switched on, because a short will do more damage the moment it gets power.
Charge and discharge under load
A board that behaves at rest can fail the moment it is asked to do something.
Cameras, speakers and microphones
All of them are moisture-sensitive and all of them are checked before it goes back.
What happens to what is on it?
This is hardware work. We do not need to go into your photos, messages or accounts to do it, and we do not.
We do need to switch the device on and use it to test the repair, so we may ask for your passcode. If you would rather not hand it over, tell us and we will show you what we cannot verify without it. Any passcode you give us goes on the paper docket and the docket gets shredded. It is never stored in our system.
Back the device up before any repair. Not because we expect to lose anything, but because a device that has already been dropped is one whose storage has already been shaken, and a backup costs nothing.
What about the water resistance?
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.
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.

No. It is the most persistent myth in phone repair. Rice does not draw moisture out of a sealed device, it holds the phone in a humid pocket and buys corrosion more time. Turn the phone off and bring it in.
Often, yes, and it is worth saying that is the priority before we start rather than after.

Often yes. Devices arrive here working weeks after a soaking and are still recoverable. The assessment tells you where it stands and it costs nothing to find out.

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!
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.
