Symptoms
What Usually Goes Wrong With the Galaxy A5 (2017)?
The Galaxy A5 from 2017 was Samsung's mid-range phone that borrowed the flagship's glass sandwich body and water resistance, at roughly half the price. Its screen is expensive to replace for a mid-range handset, because Samsung used the same bonded OLED construction as its flagships.
- Cracked front glass on the bonded OLED
- Cracked rear glass, unusual on a mid-range phone of this era
- Battery degraded, and a replacement is one of the smaller repairs on this handset
- USB-C port worn, this being an early mid-range Samsung to adopt it
- Home button with fingerprint reader failing
What Every Repair Includes
- The part itself, whatever this device needs.
- The labour to fit it. No separate bench fee on a phone repair.
- Testing before we hand it back: touch across the whole screen, cameras, speakers and charging.
- A 60-day warranty on the part and the workmanship. See what that covers.
Straight Answer
Is the Galaxy A5 (2017) Still Worth Repairing in 2026?
No for the screen, yes for the battery. The A5 stopped at Android 8, so it receives no security updates. A screen on a mid-range handset of this age costs far more than the phone justifies now. A battery or a back glass on a phone still doing a job is a reasonable spend, and we will tell you which category yours falls into.

Worth Knowing
What Is Different About Repairing This Model?
The 2017 A5 uses flagship-style bonded OLED construction rather than the cheaper separate-layer panels found in most mid-range phones of its year, which is why its screen price sits closer to a Galaxy S than to a budget handset.
