What we repair on the Samsung Galaxy Book Pro 13-inch
Screen replacement
The 13.3-inch OLED panel is replaced like-for-like, matched by the part number on the original so that resolution, brightness and colour are the same as before.
Price confirmed before work starts
Charging port and power repair
Charging is over USB-C. A loose or dead port is replaced where it is a separate part, or repaired on the motherboard where it is soldered.
SSD and storage upgrade
The Samsung Galaxy Book Pro 13-inch takes an M.2 SSD. We clone the existing drive to a larger one so Windows, programs and files carry over unchanged.

Memory
Memory in the Samsung Galaxy Book Pro 13-inch is soldered and cannot be upgraded. It is worth knowing this before paying anyone for a memory upgrade.
Windows repair and reinstall
The Samsung Galaxy Book Pro 13-inch meets Microsoft’s Windows 11 requirements in most configurations. We upgrade from Windows 10, which reached end of support in October 2025, or reinstall Windows 11 cleanly with your files kept.
Battery replacement
The battery is internal and held by screws. We fit a new one, then calibrate and test it under load. At this age, short runtime and sudden shutdowns usually point to a worn battery and not a board fault.
Price confirmed before work starts
We also carry out keyboard and trackpad repair, motherboard repair, liquid damage repair, overheating and fan repair, hinge and casing repair, virus removal on the Samsung Galaxy Book Pro 13-inch, along with USB, HDMI and audio port repair, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth card replacement, webcam and speaker faults, BIOS password removal with proof of ownership and data transfer to a new machine.
Notes from the workshop
- The AMOLED panels are thin and are replaced like-for-like by part number.
- The model code beginning NP on the base label identifies the exact version.
- Galaxy Book memory is soldered; most models have a replaceable M.2 SSD.
Data recovery from the Samsung Galaxy Book Pro 13-inch
The SSD in the Samsung Galaxy Book Pro 13-inch can be removed and imaged on our own equipment, so files can usually be recovered even when the machine will not start. Recent Windows machines often have device encryption or BitLocker switched on. If so we will need the recovery key, which is normally saved in your Microsoft account.
