Review on TOMSIN LCD Touch Screen Glass Digitizer Replacement Repair Part for Wii U GamePad by Ronnie Cole

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great Screen even comes with hardware!

I didn't expect it to be perfect because I always read reviews and watch a lot of YouTube videos before traveling to fix something like this. Anyway, I recently got hold of a Wii U on Ebay, I'm looking ๐Ÿคฃ. Anyway, the last kid who owned it furiously stabbed the screen on the bottom right, so I figured someone must have spare parts, as I've seen several YouTubers fixing game consoles before doing a quick search and found people to fix them left and right. So I went to Revain and found this screen. I was very hesitant to buy a screen that I was looking at, it seemed like they all either came from the manufacturer with a tiny touchscreen cable, were too short, or in some cases needed filing to fit. In short, this thing was a very good fit given the number of ribbon cables and connectors. As a WARNING be very careful when connecting the blue ribbon cables as I nearly ripped one with the tweezers I had, of course I was excited but you really need almost surgical precision to insert these cables properly. There's also a connector in the lower-right corner when looking at the back of the controller, which is difficult to plug in since it's the smallest connector. I had to use tweezers to hold the small wires while a flat head screwdriver pressed on the plastic to get it in place. While this screen was a perfect match for all the parts listed, screwdrivers were included and luckily I didn't have to change my new screen at all. Good luck and be careful.

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • A few little things
