Does your Samsung tablet die by lunchtime? Does it shut off at 30 percent, take all night to charge, or refuse to turn on at all? The battery is worn out, and here is the good news: a samsung tablet battery replacement fixes it, even though the battery is sealed inside. We replace batteries in Galaxy Tab A, Tab S, Tab E, and every other Samsung tablet, with a free check first and most jobs done the same day. Your apps, photos, and files stay right where they are. If your tablet has other problems too, see our full Samsung Galaxy Tab repair service.
Yes, you can, and we do it every week. But it is not like the old phones with a pop-off back. Samsung seals the tablet shut, and the battery is glued inside. Replacing it takes the right tools and a careful hand, which is exactly what this service is.
Tablet batteries age with every charge. After a few years, the battery fades while the rest of the tablet still works fine. That is why a new battery is the single best fix for an aging Samsung tablet. We also do Samsung phone battery replacement if your phone needs the same help.
A worn battery gives clear signals. If your tablet does any of these, the battery is the likely cause, and our free check confirms it before you spend anything.
A charge that used to last days now barely lasts hours. The battery has lost its capacity, which is how much power it can hold.
The tablet shows 30 or 40 percent and suddenly powers off. The worn battery can no longer deliver steady power, so the tablet gives up early.
The battery reading leaps from 80 to 50, or sits at 100 then crashes. The tablet can no longer read the worn battery correctly.
It takes all night to charge, or the tablet will not wake up at all. A dead battery is often the cause of a tablet that seems completely dead, and a new battery brings many "dead" tablets right back to life. If the charging port might be the problem instead, we check that too. See our charging port repair page for how we test and fix ports on any device.
If the screen is rising out of the frame, or the back is bulging, stop and read this part. The battery inside has swollen, and that is a safety issue that needs attention now, not later.
Tablets spend months plugged in on counters and nightstands, and constant charging ages the battery faster. As an old battery breaks down inside, it makes gas and puffs up. It is common on tablets, and the fix is simply a new battery fitted safely.
People are often surprised that a lightly used tablet has a dead battery. Here is the simple reason: batteries age from charging and from time, not just from use.
Many tablets stay plugged in around the clock. Sitting at full charge for months is hard on a battery and wears it down even when the tablet is barely touched.
Every full charge and drain is one cycle, and a battery only has so many cycles in it. Add a few years of age, and even a babied tablet ends up with a tired battery. It is normal wear, and it is exactly what a battery replacement fixes.
We handle the full Galaxy Tab family. Bring in any Samsung tablet, and we will match the exact battery it needs. For repairs beyond the battery, our Samsung Galaxy Tab repair page covers screens, charging ports, and more.
The most common Samsung tablet in homes and schools. Tab A batteries are affordable to replace, and a new one makes these tablets feel new again.
Samsung's premium tablets. A Tab S is well worth a new battery, since the tablet itself stays fast and useful for years.
We replace batteries in older Tab E and earlier Galaxy tablets too. If the tablet still does what you need, a new battery is the cheapest way to keep it going.
Look for the small model number on the back, it starts with SM, like SM-T580. Or just bring the tablet in, and we will identify it and match the exact battery. We also replace batteries in other tablet brands. See our tablet repair page for iPad, Surface, and all other tablets we service.
The price depends on your model, since each Galaxy Tab uses its own battery and some are easier to open than others. The check is free, and you approve the exact price before any work. Here is what we charge.

Almost always worth it. A new battery runs $69 to $159, while a new Samsung tablet costs several times that. Tablets age well, since most are used for browsing, video, and reading, so a tablet with a fresh battery often serves for years more. If your tablet is too old or damaged to be worth it, we say so at the free check.
No. A battery replacement does not touch your storage. Your apps, photos, accounts, and settings stay exactly as they are. We only replace the battery, and the tablet wakes up just the way you left it, only with much better battery life. If you ever need files pulled from a dead device, see our data recovery page.
We will give you the honest picture. Kits are sold online, but a Samsung tablet is one of the harder devices to open, and we see the results of tries that went wrong.
The screen or back is a thin glued panel that cracks easily when pried cold or unevenly. Under it, the glued battery must be lifted without bending it, since a bent battery is a fire risk. A cracked screen costs more than the battery job would have. If you are set on trying, work slowly with proper heat and tools. If you would rather skip the risk, our service is affordable, fast, and warrantied. And if a DIY try goes wrong and the screen cracks, we do cracked screen repair too.
Most Samsung tablet battery jobs are done the same day. Swollen batteries jump the line for safety.
Can you replace the battery in a Samsung tablet?
Yes. The battery is sealed and glued inside, so it is not a pop-off swap, but with the right tools it is a routine job. We warm the glued panel, lift it safely, release the battery adhesive, and fit a new matched battery. Most are done the same day. This is part of our full Samsung Galaxy Tab repair service.
How much does a Samsung tablet battery replacement cost?
Galaxy Tab A and Tab E batteries run $69 to $119 installed. Galaxy Tab S batteries run $89 to $149. Safe removal of a swollen battery plus a new one runs $79 to $159. The check is free, and you approve the exact price for your model before any work. Get a free quote or call (703) 594-9339.
My tablet screen is lifting up. What is happening?
The battery has swollen and is pushing the screen out of the frame. Stop charging, power it off, and do not press on it. A swollen battery is a safety issue, but an easy fix for us: we remove it safely and fit a new battery, usually the same day.
Will I lose my photos and apps when the battery is replaced?
No. The battery and your storage are separate parts. Your photos, apps, and settings stay exactly as they are. The tablet comes back just as you left it, with fresh battery life. If you ever need files recovered from a dead device, see our data recovery service.
My Samsung tablet won't turn on at all. Is it dead?
Often it is just the battery. A fully worn battery can make a tablet seem completely dead. Our free check tells you quickly, and a new battery brings many "dead" tablets right back to life.
Which Samsung tablets do you replace batteries in?
All of them: Galaxy Tab A, Tab S, Tab E, and older Galaxy tablets. Check the model number on the back, it starts with SM, or just bring it in and we will identify it. We also replace batteries in other tablet brands. Browse our tablet repair page for all the brands we cover.
Is it worth replacing the battery on an older tablet?
Usually yes. Tablets are used lightly, so the rest of the device ages slowly. A $69 to $159 battery beats spending several hundred on a new tablet. If yours is too old to be worth it, we tell you honestly at the free check.
Can I replace a Samsung tablet battery myself?
It is one of the riskier DIY repairs. The glued glass panel cracks easily without proper heat and tools, and a glued battery must not be bent during removal. A cracked screen costs more than the battery job. If you want it done safely with a warranty, that is exactly what our service is for. If a DIY try already cracked the screen, see our cracked screen repair page.
