Can I replace my Versa screen?

Is it possible to replace screens - my Versa is out of warranty

Hi @Phil-GL  there isn't anything you can do to replace the screen, as it would lose the water resistance that it once had. You could buy a protective cover band, but it won't be water resistant

Thanks for the reply

Sad that they’re classed as throw away tech - if they were £30 or £40 I
wouldn’t be overly bothered but £150 for a new one is a bit steep for me

Update: 

Thanks for the answer - I’d guessed that that was the case - it’s a shame they’re classed as “throw-away” tech

if they were cheaper I wouldn’t be as bothered 

I guess I’ll get a screen saver and cover it up - I never get it wet so that shouldn’t be an issue

@Phil-GLthe protective cover band is a bit more substantial than a screen saver, which is more like a piece of film. Check Amazon and see what you think. It actually takes the pebble portion and totally encompasses it, so the screen should stay intact if you're able to put it inside of it.

Hi again @Odyssey13 

thanks for that piece of advice, I will definitely act on it
