The Repair Plus proximity and ambient light sensor flex for Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus is a brand new, OEM standard replacement sensor flex for the Galaxy S8 (G950F) and Galaxy S8 Plus (G955F). It fixes a screen that stays on during calls, auto-brightness that no longer adjusts and a dead proximity sensor. Tested before dispatch and shipped the same day from Manchester when you order before 4pm, Monday to Friday.

- Tested before dispatch: checked before it leaves our Manchester stock.

How to tell the sensor is faulty
Make a call and cover the top of the phone near the earpiece. If the screen does not switch off, the proximity sensor is not working. A cracked screen protector or dirt over the sensor can cause the same problem, so check those first.

Frequently asked questions
Does this fit both the Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus?
Yes. The same sensor flex is used in both models, so this part fits either phone.
Why does my screen stay on during calls?
That usually means the proximity sensor is not detecting your face. If cleaning the area does not help, replacing this Samsung S8 sensor flex normally fixes it.
Do I need to remove the screen?
The sensor flex sits near the top of the phone under the display area, so the phone needs to be opened. Heat, opening picks and new adhesive are needed.
How fast will it arrive?
Orders placed before 4pm, Monday to Friday, are dispatched the same day from Manchester.
