A workmate has dropped her Galaxy Note2 on its corner and shattered the front glass.

Is it possible to replace just the glass?

Everything underneath works as it should, even under the shattered pieces of glass but she has been quoted near $500 to repair it which includes a whole new screen/digitiser unit.

Was hoping to be able to help her find a cheaper option.

My understanding is that the screen/digitizer is one unit. The cheaper way to do it is to buy a genuine part from eBay and replace it yourself or find someone who could fit it for her.

People often mistake me for an adult because of my age.

Keep calm, and carry on posting.

YMMV. Doesn't look like this includes the digitiser. Does she use the pen?

This looks like the real one but at that price you might as well pay locally.

Maybe have a look at one of the walk throughs on Youtube as well.
