Galaxy S6 and S6 edge battery replacement to cost $45

Samsung has revealed that the battery replacement for the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge will set you back $45 (shipping not included). This is, of course, after the one-year warranty period expires, during which the company replaces the battery for free (again, excluding shipping charges).

This compares to the $29.99 price which Samsung charges for a Galaxy S5 battery, and the $79 price which Apple charges for a new iPhone 6 battery. In addition, the South Korean company also revealed that screen replacement for the devices will cost $199.

As for the turnaround time, Samsung says both screen and battery replacements can be done in one business day in the US.
