Help - Cracked phone screen replacement

[Dr Murdoch]

Hi, my phone couldn't take the weight of my fat ass and cracked, I need to replace it but it seems a bit of a minefield with conflicting thoughts as to the best way to repair.

Its a Samsung S4, its just the outer screen thats cracked (I can still operate the phone).

Some websites say that both screens need replacing (£120) others will replace the outer screen (£50).

I would obviously prefer the cheaper option, but are there drawbacks? Like loss of sensitivity? more sensitive to sun etc etc?

Cheers chaps.

Has anyone had any experience of the cheaper fixes?

A fix at an approved Samsung shop is £160.

A fix at a non approved shop is £40.

To me its screaming out "you get what you pay for!", so I'm reluctant to go down the cheap route, on the other hand, £160
