Seems like the Galaxy S8 screen & digitizers are more like $150 - $175

Quoted from vid1900:You knew deep down when you bought it that you were going to get raped with any exotic nonsense like curved screens & curved glass backs.
The phone repair stores put liquid nitrogen ($1.50 a gallon at the welding shop) on the cracked front glass, and that makes it separate from the glue (like removing Mylar). It literally pops right off.
Then they glue on new $20 curved glass with UV cure glue.
If your wife won't let you have liquid nitrogen (tell her you are making ice cream with the leftovers), some mom & pop phone repair stores will pop your glass for $40 - then you can do the rest.
Vid, now you are contradicting your original post. Are you saying with the S8 just replace the glass and not the digitizer? If that's the case, then yes, just a glass is cheap. Otherwise what is your address? I am sending you my phone and a crisp Ben Franklin and you can fix the damn thing!
