Use this guide to remove or replace the screen on your Samsung Galaxy Note10+ 5G.
Due to the Note10+ 5G’s design, you will have to remove the back panel in order to disconnect the screen cable.
Before you begin this procedure, be sure to have a set of replacement adhesives for both the back panel and the screen.
This guide uses steps written for the non-5G Note10+. Some images in this guide may show minor discontinuities. They shouldn’t affect the overall guide procedure.
