This is the screen for your Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro. Attention, it is not the same as the Xiaomi Note 8, this is the Pro version.
The screen is complete and includes the LCD, touch panel, flex cable connection to the motherboard, backlight, and image and brightness controller. All of this is integrated into a single replacement part for easy installation and operation.
This is the best option when it comes to fixing a Xiaomi, due to the ease of replacing just one part without the need for complete machinery.
Additionally, we include with each screen a repair kit that will help you fix your phone without any further assistance.
How to change the Redmi Note 8 Pro Screen
To fix your screen, we recommend that you follow these basic tips:
- Make sure the phone is turned off before starting.
- Remember: If possible, you should remove the battery before connecting the new screen.
- Discharge any static electricity you may have in your body.
- Then, with a heat gun or hair dryer, apply heat to the screen of your mobile and use the plastic levers we give you to pry it off. When you pry off one area, place one of the picks we give you.
- Important: Do not spend more than 2 seconds on the same area, keep moving. You could damage the internal components.
- Once you have the entire screen detached, remove it.
- Remove any excess glue or adhesive that may be on the phone.
- Connect the new screen to the same connector you removed from the broken screen.
- Stick the new screen and press down.
- Turn on the phone.
Keep in mind that you are handling an electronic piece that was already faulty (the mobile) and is being repaired. Therefore, you must be very careful and treat all these materials delicately.
Is my Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro broken?
If any of these symptoms occur on your phone, it is very likely that you need to completely change your screen:
Firstly, it is highly recommended that you apply a screen protector to your device. These protectors, generally between 0.3 to 0.5 mm thick, act as an effective barrier against scratches and scrapes. They are particularly useful in situations of falls from moderate heights. Although they vary in quality and price, they are an economical investment that you can easily install yourself in case of scratches or wear, thus protecting your device's screen from potential damage.
Additionally, we advise you to use a silicone case. These cases absorb and reduce the impact in case of falls, minimizing the risk of more serious damage. They also protect the edges of your device, which is especially useful in situations of lateral impact. Cases with slightly raised edges, protruding above the screen, are an excellent choice, as they prevent the screen from touching the ground in case of a fall.
Another popular recommendation is to opt for a case that includes a strap or strip. This not only adds a touch of style to your device but also prevents it from slipping out of your hands and suffering an accidental fall.
By following these tips, you can effectively protect your Xiaomi device and extend its lifespan, reducing the possibility of damage to the screen and chassis.
