I reckon that very few tablets can break. Unlike mobile phones, the use of tablets (especially large-size tablets) is generally on the desktop, and generally with a protective case and the like, it is difficult to fall directly to the ground. So, when my Xiaomi Mi Tablet 5 Pro fell directly to the ground, and it was a side bezel that touched the ground directly, I still felt very confused: how to fix it?
Before that, I had changed my phone screen, battery, etc., all of which were relatively simple. Before there was no melt gun, the problem of glue could be solved in the hot air mode of the hair dryer, and the screen change and the battery as a whole were relatively simple.
So, what about the screen for the tablet? This difficulty is much greater. If you want to solve it, there are two scenarios to solve it:
Directly to Xiaomi after-sales, the price is transparent, in the Millet Mall, the community can be directly applied, relatively simple;
Search for a treasure, you can buy a third party, the price can be much cheaper (about 1/2 of the original factory); but the quality is difficult to guarantee, especially I often use a stylus.
So, still decided Xiaomi official. I inquired about the price, you can look at the details.
Xiaomi tablet 5 Pro, the price of the whole machine is 2799 yuan, the replacement screen is 760 + 40, the proportion of the whole machine price is not too high, objectively speaking, I think it is very reasonable.
In contrast, the iPad mini 6 64G model, priced at 3799 yuan, if there is no AppleCare + need to pay an out-of-package service fee of 2549 yuan, this is more scary. Of course, there are many pieces of a treasure sub-factory, and the price is different.
Then, let's take a look at what the Xiaomi Mi Tablet 5 Pro, which has been broken, is like (has entered repair mode).
Broken position, in the upper left corner. The tempered film was actually pasted, but the angle of the fall was one side to the ground (tile floor, about 1 meter or so to the ground), so the screen shattered in the upper left corner.
In addition, the metal border has also been deformed, making my pursuit of perfection speechless.
After consultation, it was found that the local Millet after-sales could not guarantee the repair effect. Because unlike mobile phones, the screen of the tablet requires special tools to glue when sticking. Therefore, in the end, the provincial capital was chosen for maintenance.
After applying for a repair, you will receive a text message with a LINK to the URL. After clicking, you can see the progress of the repair in real time, which is very good. Unexpectedly, Xiaomi's after-sales service is so Internet-based, almost a visual maintenance process.
Then, the whole repair process, which lasted for a week. Talk about a few feelings during the maintenance process:
All the process visualization, each process will have engineers to call, and customer communication, Xiaomi's after-sales is indeed in place;
You can go to the phone consultation, will reply quickly;
The preparation of the provincial capital is very sufficient, almost all the accessories are available; the actual maintenance, about 1 day.
So, why do repairs last a week? The first was detection and communication, which lasted two days. I learned through understanding that the screen and the metal border are not one, but separate. This involves, if the border is not replaced, then because the border has been deformed, only replacing the screen will worry about damage to the screen.
The metal frame and the back shell are one, and the price is 270 yuan + 40 yuan for a total of 310 yuan, so I chose to replace the back shell at the same time.
After the replacement is completed, the factory inspection found that the power key fingerprint recognition was damaged and could not pass (it was not when it was broken); the original you did not know. Therefore, the engineer communicates with the after-sales and replaces a fingerprint key after the sale.
Finally, I found that in addition to the screen and back case, there was also a free replacement of the battery (the first user, which has been used for nearly 8 months), the lens lens (slightly worn), and the fingerprint recognition button. The total price is 760+270+40+15, saving a maintenance cost. Overall process, very satisfied.
This is the tablet after receiving, and you can see the large piece of film.
The back shell was replaced, so the foil is also new.
In many unknowns there are separate yellow stickers that should be protective.
The only fly in the ointment is to find that this power button has some crookedness, and the function is normal. Forget it, life will not be too perfect, why pursue this flaw.
The screen is intact, almost a brand new tablet.
All functions are normal and can be used at high frequencies.
The Xiaomi Mi Tablet 5 Pro is a tool for me to code words, read books, listen to songs, and watch videos every day. This week, I am looking forward to returning to my hands quickly, and the final effect is still satisfactory.
Finally thought about it, almost 1000 yuan, bought a brand new 2799 yuan Xiaomi Tablet 5 Pro, or worth it.
