Great Video! At first it seemed complicated but pausing after every step its actually super simple! My phone repair shop was gonna charge me $400 to fix my screen on my Note 10+, but I just ordered a new screen and all the tools I needed plus new Back Glass, a new case, and a new battery (cause we pierced mine lol), all for around $150 and it works perfectly! The hardest part was waiting a week give or take for it all to come in but luckily my dad upgraded and gave me his old one to use for a while, my advice for anyone doing the same is to use yours or someone elses Amazon for free and fast shipping, and make SURE that the battery is the exact right model with lots of good reviews on it lol

[@jonnjon1]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I made it all by myself just by following your instructions, payed 150 USD for the screen but sadly, I was very excited and broke the glass that is on the back of the phone when I was opening the phone but whatever , The front screen is now working! So be very careful and take your time when removing the back of your phone. just go safe and slow. About the screens I got mine for just $150 US from aliexpress and $15 more for the tools and the glue . the screen is around 300 US but you can get the ones with little defects for half the price, mine has just a little black dot and that's it. I don't mind having it when its barely noticeable.

You did a fantastic job with this tutorial. Thank you. This is very useful information for me. I was wondering if you could recommend a reputable distributor for replacement batteries for the Note 10 plus? I see tons of options available on amazon and eBay however I've been made aware that 90% of these are junk, and don't' deliver the advertised mAh rating... any advice would be much appreciated.

[@RainEragon]

I personally has just self-replaced a Deji battery for my Note 10. It's working great with avg use time of 9h~11h (with screen on/off running daily browsing apps) and doesn't give off as much heat. Note that the phone own battery diagnostic will declare your every new battery as weak unless you change them at a SS service center.

[@jd-uo8hc]

If you are still using the CC method for removing batteries and other parts secured the same way as the battery, I recommend cutting a saw tooth pattern into the edge of the actual card with a knife or scissors. It makes cutting the battery tape much quicker.

I know this late, but I want to as a question. My note 10+ screen broke and was replaced but since then, the s-pen is not writing on all the screen. it writes on the side of the screen but not in the middle. I bought the s-pen sensor flex cable to replace it thinking that that is the issue. I cannot change the screen again because it is pretty expensive. Would like your advice on the matter.

Here's a tip: Connect the new display backwards to it's connector after disconnecting the old display. This way you can test if the new display works properly before complete disassembly. Just installed a replacement display, and found that it doesn't work. Only tested it after, reassembling everything but the back cover :/

Excellent video! Question: I just dropped and broke the screen on my Note 10+ last night. I have Asurion insurance from Verizon. I looked up replacement screens on eBay and other sites, but they are very expensive. It will cost me $199 through insurance to replace the whole phone. My fear is that I want to keep my phone exactly as is. Since I don't know if there is a way to clone my broken phone to my replacement phone I may have to go with the new screen. Any suggestions on where to get one? Thank you

[@JaydSW]

Back up to smart switch. You can back up to a microsd card and it'll copy everything back as is.

[@RealWorldReview]

Do at your own discretion. I did that and was never able to restore via memory card

[@JaydSW]

@@RealWorldReview Interesting! I had to replace my Note 10 Plus and everything went straight back. Maybe your SD card was encrypted? I made that mistake initially.

[@scottsoriero9827]

Thanks guys. I could barely see my screen on my broken phone, but when I placed the new phone next to the old phone I was able to make an educated guess based on reference when hitting the buttons on the screen. Anyway, I did use smart switch and back up and restore. Back up and restore did move some things to my new phone, but not texts or apps. Then for the heck of it I used Samsung Smart Switch and I have to say it worked quickly and flawlessly. It basically cloned my old phone to my new phone. Thank you all so much for the help.

[@RealWorldReview]

Perceived value doesn't mean anything when the actual value is a real number lol these parts are expensive because people complain about the parts being expensive

[@TheGreatWall22]

@@RealWorldReview I'm not trying to be a dick, but genuinely how is a part more expensive because people complain? Demand?

[@RealWorldReview]

Well let’s try to visualize this. You’re more likely to spend $20 than $300, right? Well there’s lots of situations that happen to get that part that you’re buying. Let’s say those numbers are cost, so let’s sell them for $40/$340, same profit value. You’re more likely to sell the $40 product, so you can eventually drop the price to $38, then $35, all the way down to $30, which now you’re selling even more. The $340 may drop to $338, but who wants that when for less than that you can buy the entire device used for the same or even less? So now that $338 price never drops. Not to mention if you’re refurbishing, that $338 part has a higher chance of being damaged during refurbishing, which will cause companies to raise that cost even more. So now that $338 part goes to $380 because supply is finite, and you took some away from the supply (honestly similar to how BTC works). So the part isn’t expensive to be expensive. OLED parts cost more money to make than LCDs, while LCDs are SOOOOOO much easier to make aftermarket versions of when compared to OLEDs, especially curved OLEDs. Even now an aftermarket Samsung Note8 (yes a phone from 2017) screen is inferior to the OEM version in quite a few ways, and the price difference is very minimal. Even then those are $100 for aftermarket while an iPhone X is $45. There’s more variables in pricing, but that’s the broad overview of why that seller or store isn’t price gouging you (assuming they’re charging less than $100 over part cost that they can show you). It cost me $210 to buy that screen wholesale, expect maybe a $20 price difference depending on who you buy from, but under $100 for the part will be aftermarket (for the Samsung Note10 Plus)

[@rob6027]

Would you happen to know where I can buy the amoled screen at discount. All I can find is 200 or 300 dollar prices. Anything less than 100 would be phenomenal during these crucial times.

[@RealWorldReview]

No one in the world can. The cheapest would be from Samsung

[@Trey112187]

Can I ask what the downside to ONLY replacing the screen and not the frame?

[@RealWorldReview]

Generally the screens cost just as much as the screen with the frame. If you don't apply it properly, the front camera may be blurry. The screen is extremely fragile, so if the frame isn't cleaned perfectly, your new screen may get damaged. Most companies offer no warranty on the screen, but do with the screen in the frame. Lot more glass to break when doing the repair, as well as a lower chance of getting the best water resistance you can post repair (but assume your phone IS NOT water resistant anymore once you break the phone)

[@Trey112187]

@@RealWorldReview I was told that removing the charge port damages the hydrophobic coating causing it to lose its water resistance

[@Trey112187]

This is why I only wanted to replace the screen

[@RealWorldReview]

It might. But I've changed batteries on phones like the S9, added all the waterproofing back onto the phone, and seen that same phone fail due to liquid damage. Always assume water resistance is gone once you get a crack in any glass components

[@Elizabethhogan56]

I am confused. If it comes with the frame and the frame has all those things on it that i dont understand, will it erase my pictures and videos? Where is all that date located in the phone? I've tried connecting phone to laptop but I'm guessing my phone is asking for permission since it vibrates and i cant do anything because the screen is broken and flashing black and blue
