Samsung now offers Apple-style same-day repairs on the best buy

Starting in early November, more than 100 Best Buy stores will begin offering Same-Day Repairs on Samsung Galaxy phones, creating a more apple-like experience. With these many stores offering the service, chances are it's close to you.

The most important thing about that new deal with the best buy is the same day repairs. Being without your phone is never a good thing, so having the option to take it to your local store and have you walk out with a landline device quickly is fantastic.

Unfortunately, Foldable Devices you will not be eligible for same day repairs. Samsung said the Galaxy Flip and Fold devices are excluded, likely because they are more complicated to correct than traditional smartphone screens.

Repairs will be performed by what the company calls "Samsung Certified Geek Squad Agents." That should mean they've been fully trained in dealing with the specifics of working with a Samsung phone. Samsung also says, "Samsung-certified agents only use Samsung parts, so you can rest assured that your phone will be restored back to the way it was meant to be."

Another great convenience that adds to the Apple-like experience is the ability to schedule your repair appointment online, which means you won't have to walk into the best buy and wait for someone to be available.

As mentioned, Best Buy's new partnership kicks off in early November, so you'll have to wait a bit before you can take your phone in for repairs.
