With the phone empty we turn to the screen... and it puts up a real fight!
-
After an initial round of heating, we didn't get very far with our Opening Picks before we heard that dreaded noise...
-
Crack!
-
Like all Samsung phones, the A51's screen is strongly glued to the frame. There's a reason that Samsung sells screen replacements pre-adhered to brand new frames, and this is it!
-
The good news is once you crack it, you can't go back! The rest of our removal procedure is infinitely less stressful. We use a Plastic Card to carve away the rest of the screen.
-
Once we finally break it free, we find the culprits: two thick adhesive strips that cover a large area of the screen.
