    13단계에서 14단계로 오는사이에 마더보드의 왼쪽 아래부분 나사 푸는 부분이 누락된것 같습니다. 아래 20단계에서 억늡한 나사 2개 이외에 아래쪽 2개를 더 푸는것을 추가해야 합니다.

    그리고 8단계 2번째 사진의 나사는 풀 필요가 없는 나사인데.. 왜 풀어야 하는지요??

Hello,

If by “isn’t finished” you mean that the instructions do not contain the steps to put the camera back together, this was done in the hope that the user would follow the steps in a reverse order to put the camera back in one piece.

Best.

I hope you never made a plane like this

Hello there,

Thank you for your constructive comment. The criteria we needed to meet for this project was to provide instruction on iFixit guides for how to remove various parts on the device. We were being evaluated on the content pertaining to our writing and not the technical depth of the guide. Furthermore, we did not have a vested interest in replacing the screen nor did we have another screen to replace it with. In your rush to make a rude comment, you might have missed the end of the guide where it states that in order to reassemble you must follow the steps we provided in the reverse order. Reverse means doing something in the opposite direction.

Regards.

Thank you! Appreciated the clear instructions.. I have one question is the new screen price range is around 20 to 30$ ? I find it cheap to be true but at the same time I hope it’s 😄
