Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra Screen Replacement Guide UK 2026

Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra: The Ultimate Android — and Its Screen Replacement

The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, launched January 2024, is one of the most sophisticated Android smartphones ever made. A 6.8-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display at 3088 × 1440 Quad HD+ resolution, 120Hz adaptive refresh, and a built-in S-Pen with just 2.8ms latency — combined with a titanium frame, 200MP main camera, and Galaxy AI features — make the S24 Ultra the definitive power user device of 2024.

In 2026, the S24 Ultra remains Samsung's most repairable high-end Ultra, especially compared to curved-screen predecessors. The flat Corning Gorilla Glass Armor panel and titanium frame construction make it a more accessible teardown than the S22 Ultra. This guide provides everything UK repair professionals need for a successful S24 Ultra screen replacement.

Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra Screen Replacement Cost UK 2026

The S24 Ultra's Quad HD+ OEM AMOLED panel with integrated S-Pen Wacom layer commands premium replacement pricing. The flat display design (versus curved predecessors) makes the repair itself somewhat more accessible than it was for S22 Ultra.

What Makes the S24 Ultra Screen Replacement Unique

• Titanium frame: Provides excellent structural rigidity, making the chassis more resistant to flex during opening. However, titanium bonds adhesive very firmly. Heat adequately and never force the back glass.
• Flat Gorilla Glass Armor: The S24 Ultra is completely flat front and back — both faces have Gorilla Glass Armor. No curved edges means standard picks work throughout and adhesive releases cleanly.
• S-Pen with Wacom digitiser: The built-in S-Pen requires an OEM display with the Wacom EMR digitiser layer. Non-OEM replacements render the S-Pen non-functional in most cases.
• Ultrasonic under-display fingerprint: Upgraded from optical, this requires the specific OEM AMOLED panel layer. Non-OEM screens will not support it.
• 7-year update commitment: Like the S24, the S24 Ultra is supported through 2031 — making it one of the most repair-worthy devices in the entire Android market.

Tools Required

• Heat gun or iOpener (60°C)
• Large suction cup with sturdy handle
• Plastic spudger and thin picks
• Phillips and Torx T5 screwdrivers
• Non-magnetic tweezers
• Anti-static mat and wrist strap
• Samsung Ultra-specific adhesive strips (wider profile)
• Isopropyl alcohol (90%+)

Step-by-Step Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra Screen Replacement

Step 1: Power Off and Remove S-Pen and SIM

Power off completely. Remove the S-Pen from its bottom silo. Remove the SIM tray. Working without the S-Pen reduces the risk of it falling during the repair.

Step 2: Heat the Back Glass

Apply heat evenly across the entire back glass for 90–120 seconds. The titanium frame conducts heat differently to aluminium. Apply heat in multiple passes around all four edges. The large 6.8-inch back glass has more adhesive surface area than smaller models.

Step 3: Remove the Back Glass

Suction cup on the back. Insert a thin pick at the bottom edge and slide carefully around the full perimeter. The Gorilla Glass Armor back is more scratch-resistant but still fragile under lateral stress. Work slowly. Lift the back panel straight up once fully separated.

Step 4: Disconnect the Battery

Torx T5 screws off the battery bracket. Disconnect the battery. Mandatory before any further work.

Step 5: Remove Internal Shields and Disconnect Cables

Remove the motherboard shield screws. Disconnect: wireless charging coil, NFC antenna, fingerprint sensor cable (routed to the display), and any cables obscuring the display connector. Photograph everything before removal.

Step 6: Disconnect the Display Connector

Locate and lift the display flex connector from the ZIF socket. The S24 Ultra's connector is positioned slightly differently to the S23 Ultra — reference an S24 Ultra-specific diagram if needed.

Step 7: Remove the Front Display

Heat the front display from the outside for 60 seconds. Apply suction cup and insert picks to release the front adhesive. The flat form factor makes this step cleaner than on older curved models. Lift the screen straight up.

Step 8: Clean and Fit New Screen

Clean all adhesive residue with isopropyl alcohol. Apply fresh Ultra-width adhesive strips. Lower the new OEM AMOLED display into position. Route the flex cable. Connect firmly. Press around the perimeter.

Step 9: Reconnect and Test

Reconnect battery and all internal cables. Power on. Test: full-screen touch response at 505 ppi, S-Pen input across the entire display, under-display ultrasonic fingerprint registration, front camera, earpiece. Verify Galaxy AI features function normally.

Step 10: Reassemble

Reconnect all cables and refit the motherboard shield. Fit back glass with fresh adhesive. Press firmly and evenly around the large 6.8-inch perimeter. Reinsert S-Pen and SIM tray.

FAQ: Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra Screen Replacement

Does the S24 Ultra have a curved screen?

No — the S24 Ultra moved to a completely flat display. Both the front and back are flat Gorilla Glass Armor. This makes the repair considerably easier and less risky than the S22 Ultra, which had curved edges on both faces.

Is Samsung S24 Ultra screen replacement worth it?

Yes — with seven years of OS updates guaranteed, the S24 Ultra has exceptional remaining value. A quality OEM AMOLED repair restores full S-Pen functionality, Quad HD+ display quality, and under-display fingerprint — preserving the complete flagship experience at a fraction of the device replacement cost.

Why does the S24 Ultra screen replacement cost more than the S24?

The S24 Ultra uses a Quad HD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X at 505 ppi with an integrated Wacom S-Pen digitiser layer — a significantly more complex panel than the FHD+ S24 display. OEM panels also need to support the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, adding further manufacturing complexity and cost.

How long does S24 Ultra screen replacement take?

Experienced technician: 60–80 minutes. First-timer: 2–3 hours. The multiple internal cable disconnections and S-Pen digitiser layer transfer add time to what is otherwise a logical procedure.

Conclusion: The S24 Ultra Screen Repair Worth Every Penny

The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is Samsung's peak — and it's supported through 2031. An OEM AMOLED screen replacement that preserves S-Pen functionality, Quad HD+ display quality, and under-display fingerprint makes complete sense as an investment in 2026.
