Compatible Charging Connector for Galaxy S23 Plus

The Galaxy S23 Plus US Version charging connector ensures charging and data transmission through your device's USB-C port. When the connection becomes intermittent, the phone no longer recognizes the cable, or refuses to charge, the connector needs to be replaced. This part is a cost-effective alternative to manufacturer connectors, selected and validated in our workshop to provide sufficient reliability without the expense of an original component.

US Version: verify the region before ordering

This connector is designed exclusively for the American Galaxy S23 Plus (SM-S916U). The connector's circuit board differs between regions: the US version uses a circuit optimized for North American frequency bands, while the European version (SM-S916B) uses a circuit adapted to European standards. Installing a connector from one region on a device from another region risks causing network signal loss or microphone malfunctions. Check your Galaxy S23 Plus region code before ordering: open Settings, go to About Phone, and look for the exact reference (S916U or S916B). This part is compatible with the S916U model only.

Compatible quality and workshop control

Unlike Samsung original connectors, this component comes from carefully selected third-party manufacturers. Each batch undergoes a strict quality control process performed before stocking, with a low return rate validated through multiple testing cycles. This part does not carry the Samsung seal, but it meets the technical requirements needed for reliable and lasting repair. It is intended for repair technicians seeking a balance between performance and repair costs, particularly for intermediate repair offers or devices in rapid rotation.

When to replace the charging connector

Several signs indicate it is time to change the connector. Charging becomes intermittent: the Galaxy S23 Plus only charges if you hold the cable in a precise position, or stops charging as soon as you release it. The device refuses to recognize the cable, even with a replacement cable confirmed to be in good condition. The connector shows visible oxidation, moisture in the port, or damaged pins. In all these cases, replacing the connector solves the problem without further intervention on the rest of the device.

Installation and precautions

Replacing the connector requires micro-electronics equipment: a fine soldering iron, lead-free solder, a suction cup or lifting tool to access the port, and tweezers for handling components. Cut power and discharge the device before working on it. If the connector is soldered to the motherboard (which is the case on the Galaxy S23 Plus), the operation requires desoldering skills and a stable work space. Improper desoldering risks irreversibly damaging the motherboard. If you are not comfortable with micro-soldering, entrust this repair to a specialized workshop.

2-year warranty on this part

This part comes with a 2-year warranty against manufacturing defects. Any premature connector failure during this period entitles you to a replacement. The warranty does not cover damage related to incorrect installation, exposure to water beyond the device's capabilities, or misuse.
