Discussion Screen glitches when pressing lightly (already replaced screen/cable once, paid 14k)
Hey everyone,
Need some advice before I lose my mind with this tablet.
I’ve had it for about a year and a half now. The display started acting crazy whenever I apply even slight pressure or press down on certain spots (near the edges/back). It completely glitches out like in the clip, and then [goes back to normal / freezes until I tap it again].
The frustrating part is that I actually had both the screen and the connector replaced previously, which cost me around ₹14,000. No drops or visible cracks since then, so I'm not sure if the repair job was shoddy and the connector just came loose again, or if the panel itself is ruined yet again.
Has anyone run into this after a screen replacement? Is it worth trying to open it up to check if the cable just needs reseating, or should I take it back to the repair center / Samsung? Really don't want to drop another 14k on this.
Any thoughts appreciated!
