How much Samsung service centre charge for battery replacement for export set? I am going to buy a40 which is an export set. Do they have this battery for a40? Or all new models?

Was quoted $69 + $53.50 labour cost for replacement of my Note 9 battery.

Any bros can advice where is a reliable and reasonable priced place to do it? Have been using note series for many years, but this is my first one without removable back cover for battery replacement.

Seems Mistermobile has good reviews. Anyone?

iRepair at Pinsep Street... or GW at SLS... definitely cheaper... I also tried those mobile repair shops on 3rd floor SLS and got my Note8 battery replaced - $40 not original Samsung battery... last about 2 years already... still ok...

Thanks, I went to Mister Mobile for my Note 9 and was asked how long my battery took to go from 100% to 0%. I told him cannot last 1 day, and I noticed its much worse compared to last time. But he was an honest guy, he advised me not to change as the battery they would replace is not as good as the original Samsung battery and I might see not much of an improvement. He said to wait until battery cannot last 6 hours, then to change. So I will continue to use until it gets worse.

That's pretty unusual... cannot last 1 day for normal use pattern isn't normal already leh... quite unusual that a new battery cannot last 1 day... my new battery when first replace lasted like the original... now it's still good... I didn't use my phone much today and I always leave the house with 100% charge... I left before 7.00 and came back at 5.00 pm and the phone still had 83% power left... and this is not an original Samsung battery...

IMHO.
I have a Note 9 that the user uses it extensively where it cannot last half a day. The user is ok to plug in the power bank always. After using with the power bank for quite sometime, the LCD starts to act up, becoming green, fading and unresponsive. If the mobile is turn off and rest for a period of time, everything is back to normal.

When a battery cannot last long, usually it will get bloated and the challenge is that without opening the mobile, we can never tell how extensive the battery is bloated and if it will pressed against other components inside the mobile as the space inside is tight.

MisterMobile charges less than 100$ for battery change. Change early may prolong the life of the mobile.

I mean my current 4 year old battery just manages 1 day or slightly less. Think will use a few more months then change.

For a 4 year old battery, that's pretty good leh... I would just change the battery if you're going to keep the phone... small investment to prevent loss of data when the battery suddenly dies... you never know...

Just to share.
Battery "failure" depends on usage. I have two Note 10+. On one mobile which has seen extensive use, 1+ years, the sticky seal that affix the backcover to the front has "ooze" out from the side. The other Note 10+ which is lighter use, around maybe 2 years, slight "oozing". The latter Note10+ still can last more than 1 day.

P.S. I went to MisterMobile and change the battery for a Samsung Tab. Super low usage but I made the mistake of always plugging it in - the back and front delaminated caused by battery super bloat.

How old was your Samsung Tab? Low usage and battery bloat is pretty unusual too...

A bit complicated. 2019 Tab, bought in 2020, did not use it until late 2021.
It got mounted on a massage chair as a controller.
The mistake was that it was always plugged to the USB charging.

But the charging chip will switch off the charging at 100%? But yeah lar... once the battery drop below 100%, then it will charge again I suppose and kill the battery eventually...

My 2 lower cost Galaxy Tab ( although they have LTE/3G ) seems LCD like to detach from the backing probably due to battery bloating. I suspect could be design to be like that. :ROFLMAO:

In comparison, my Samsung J2 Pro with removable battery seems better despite

a) exposing it to sunlight on the car dash
b) high battery temperature over 40 degrees Celsius
c) app shutting down and restarting due to high temperature
d) constantly plugged in charging with battery always at 100%
