A Samsung Galaxy A05 or A05s screen replacement costs from around £13.00 as a complete display assembly — among the cheapest Samsung screens you can buy, and all in UK stock. The A05 series is one of the biggest-selling budget lines in the UK, so cracked A05 and A05s screens are an extremely common repair. This guide shows you exactly which part to order, how to tell the two models apart, and how to fit it, so you don't waste money on the wrong screen.
A05 or A05s? Identify your model first
They share a name but use different screens, so confirm which you have before buying:
- Galaxy A05 — model SM-A055F
- Galaxy A05s — model SM-A057F
Check Settings > About phone, the box, or under the SIM tray. The A05 and A05s look similar but the display assemblies differ, so the model number is the only safe way to order the correct part.
Samsung Galaxy A05 / A05s screen prices (UK)
| Model | Model number | Replacement screen from |
|---|---|---|
| Galaxy A05 | SM-A055F | LCD assembly £13.00 |
| Galaxy A05s | SM-A057F | LCD assembly £14.01 (or with frame £15.68) |
Each is a full assembly with the touch digitiser bonded in, so one part restores both the display and the touch.
What kind of screen and which to buy
The A05 and A05s ship with LCD displays, so there's no OLED-versus-LCD decision to make — the LCD replacement is the like-for-like part. The main choice is simply with frame or without: a framed assembly lets you transfer your parts straight into a ready-mounted screen (easier), while a bare panel is a little cheaper but needs heat and fresh adhesive to bond into your old frame.
The A05 series uses a side-mounted fingerprint sensor in the power button (where fitted), so any replacement screen keeps fingerprint unlock working — there's no in-display sensor to worry about.
Repair vs replace
At £13–£16 for the part, replacing an A05 or A05s screen is far cheaper than a new phone whenever the screen is the only fault. Fitting it yourself is free; even paying a technician a small fitting fee usually beats an all-in shop quote.
Signs you need a new A05 / A05s screen
- Cracked or shattered glass, even if touch still works
- Dead or unresponsive touch
- Lines, coloured patches or a distorted image
- Black screen while the phone still rings, vibrates or charges
No vibration or charge light at all points to the battery or board, not the screen.

Frequently asked questions
How much is a Samsung Galaxy A05 screen replacement in the UK?
From £13.00 for the A05 and £14.01 for the A05s (or £15.68 with frame). Fitting it yourself is free; a repair shop adds labour.
Is the A05 screen the same as the A05s?
No — the A05 (SM-A055F) and A05s (SM-A057F) use different screens. Confirm your model number before ordering.
Does the A05 have OLED or LCD?
Both the A05 and A05s use LCD, so the LCD replacement is the like-for-like part.
Will a new screen affect the fingerprint sensor?
No — the A05 series uses a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, so a screen swap doesn't affect it.
