There were so many mixed reviews I was a little scared to buy this.-I work 10 hour shifts kzread.infoUgkxAxiUS5CgVC3j8FwNOHt037zhsquGQpXv and I can watch lectures, jam out, and read articles all day and only use 30-40% of the battery.-The screen is beautiful and the touch is accurate-The camera is on the edge, making this perfect for Zoom calls (I also have the keyboard with the back piece)-It's super thin. The bulk of my iPad kept me from using it often-I never realized how lazy I was until this pencil. The button and flick action (volume up and down, next and back) mean I can kick back without having to lean forward to make changes. I feel like a witch.Only 1 real complaint if it can even be called that, it comes with one background in like 6 colors. It's easy enough to find new ones... but why so stingy?

Samsung tab s8 is better than a8

Hugh, great video as always but I'm not sure why you don't cover shattered screens with some kind of sticky tape before removing them, it would help prevent shards from going everyhwhere.

Wow! This was a very fast repair. Thank you Hugh for your inspiration!

Another perfectly capable device saved from the landfill. Nicely done!

The question is just, is it worth it or would not even better when this crap get recycled to make a really long lasting Produkt like an iPad? This device is just an year old and has hardware which was even 2-3 years ago just something in the midrange for low budget… I think anything beyond the purchase costs are way too much and even the purchase should be way cheaper as the 230$ Samsung want for it, it’s really not a good Tablet and was it never…

That’s a usetime you will not find on android devices at least in the next 5 years when you will find it ever, and then we still don’t talk about the average, we just talk about the best devices which are in the android world a big exception…

Our Marketing Firm (job #2) uses these tablets all the time for in-store sales work. Pretty cool to see how you tackled this one, Hugh!

A quick and easy repair, nice video as always.

You're an absolute boss, sir. Came across your channel a few weeks ago and watched your videos daily. Much love to you 😊✌

Worked on a much older Samsung Tablet and pleased to see they're no harder to repair with this generation.

One tip for removing the broken glass screen. You can tape it up with transparent packing tape to keep it more or less in one piece during removal.

Just recently repaired a Samsung galaxy A30. I thank this channel as it helped me to repair all sorts of tech

The samsung Tab series are probably my favorite repairs. The majority of them are extremely easy, worlds above Apple and their iPads. regarding the LCD glass being as one... I personally don't see this as a bad thing generally. The issue with glass-only such as the iPad Air 1 through iPad 9 (current gen) is that when the glass gets cracked, that exposes tine internals (LCD included) to the environment. This almost guarantees the LCD will get filthy, and no matter how much you try you will never get an LCD as clean as it was as when it came out of the factory. Compared to the tablets with LCD/glass combos where this simply isn't a concern. Yes it costs more, but especially for those aiming to repair devices for resale, it's a lot harder to sell a tablet that has a nice uncleanable dot (or many) from exposure on the LCD due to broken glass, even if everything else is perfect.

This device shows how adhesive should feel in devices these days. Many devices use too much adhesive that it's hard to remove when disassembling, especially in batteries. It should be easy to remove while able to hold on to it even in high temps.

Phoneguru used to tape whole screen with thick layer of transparent office tape to keep the glass flakes together

Hi Jeff, have you seen Samsung XCover6 Pro? It seems like a great phone repair wise, with the replaceable battery and all. Hope you take a closer look, including their software

All you needed to do is replace the screen and fix the frame. No removing parts from the old screen and placing them in the new one to keep the software from saying it's not genuine!

Nice repair job👍 I had a similar experience today, your video shows how difficult a damaged tablet restoration could be. I just finished fixing my indented iPad Pro 12.9 2018 with shattered display One corner was indented for about 2mm, had to file the edge railing down to fit the replacement display. 1. heating display with heating bed of 3D-printer 65C° 10 min 2. use suction cup to seperate the damaged display from body (use packaging tape for damaged parts with no suction) 3. transfer ribbon cables & etc. to new display 4. hammer the corner into shape🤣file down the railing to fit display 5. remove old adhesive and adding new double side adhesive tape 6. reconnect cables and reseal display onto the body 165€ Display + 4 hours of weekend Fixing my own electronics is pretty rewarding and fun😇 Total amateur btw

great repair

I mean this is a budget device so it won't be water resistant or something so it has weaker glue but yeah it's easy to repair, but as an owner of the tab a7, I have it well before the a8 I can say that they are just e-waste, they are pretty awful, I am currently using it and even KZread is a struggle for it, I'm not taking games into consideration, it's too weak to be used, after 1 update it kind of just became useless, I have to say that you are better getting some more money and buying the iPad 9, even where I'm from it's not that big of a difference, in other countries it may be even closer in price and you get a much better device that is actually usable for more than 1 year, and that year only used mostly for KZread and movies

Nice vid

Hey Hugh, welcome back to another Hugh Jeffrey's video.

So hard shut down didnt't work you hold the power button and the volume down for 7 seconds

Thanks!

Nice work as always... what about "fixing" the Display with adhesive tape beforehand and then start opening it? This should make it much more easy and make it possible to adhere a suction cup. Is this something you considered? Tried? I never had a severe case like this broken display, but it would seem like the right thing to do. I'm very interested why it's not part of your routine.

The tablet looks nice

I have the exact same tablet. It's still in the best condition so far!

Huge, have you try the trick of using clear tape over the broken display, then using the suction cup? It was very effective when i fix my phone screen

Very nice!

keep going!

good job

Seeing that it was in setup mode, makes me wonder if that was due to the screen change or whether the previous owner dropped it while trying to set it up. 😂

Hi Hugh I was wondering what’s is the first song you use on this video, it’s been stuck in my mind!

if you plug it in to power and then hold wake button + volume down it should power off :)

When I first started watching your videos, I thought the channel was called Huge Effries.

Simple repair

cool video

I personally fixed once a Samsung tablet which I bought from eBay for personal use and it was definitely easier to fix than one of those crappy iPads which have their screens and batteries paired to the motherboard. I bought the tablet for 35€ and invested 210€ into original screen and battery. It was also a great choice that I got a model from 2020 because the newer models have firmware protections which "prevent" you from installing 3rd party firmware by displaying camera and disabling the selfie camera. That definitely sucks since I love to install CrDroid and EvolutionX GSI firmware on my tablets since they have support for the pressure points of the s-pen and OneUi is just bloatware that wastes the resources that could be used to render a video or render a multi-layer image (Also knows from certain Twitter artists/ those type of images where you can zoom into certain spot of the image and see another one and then in that another image see another image)

I got an espresso coffee machine for free not working, fixed it for free (no need to replace any parts) so now I have a coffee machine for free instead of buying a new one for 250+ EUR

Hugh: You can’t turn off the tablet without a working display Me: there is always a way to force shut it down

It is possible to switch the tablet off, holding the power button down for long enough will always shut it down without any interaction

I liked this video.

Now thats a good deal!

i think its pretty funny, because this is smth apple users might dream of. A display wich comes of easyli, you can just change parts and they re not locked to the device... just love it ;D

Hi hugh can you do a restoration of a dell 2010 pc

i have that exact model

Nice

At 2:05 I just noticed that the tablet has battery pull tabs. Why doesn't Samsung add those on their galaxy phones huh?

Use a USB-C hub with HDMI and USB A. You can then plug in a mouse and monitor and control the device

For anyone without a heat plate, but lots of time on their hands, buying one with a completely smashed screen like that might be the play if they can get past some possible cuts lol. Other than that, this seemed easy in my books.. are things getting BETTER now? 🤔

watching things like this makes me think if i ever get something brand new and break it set the price higher if it looks repairable.
