Review on Toshiba Satellite L755D S5204 Laptop Replacement by William Rothstein

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect fit, as bright and sharp as a broken Samsung

Great replacement, satellite LCDs are easier to take apart than ThinkPads and Vaios, and YouTube is full of how-to videos, tips and tricks for end users. An LG display (LG Korea) which appears to be one of Toshiba's supply partners alongside Samsung and a few others. Replacing the panel is cheaper than buying the whole cover, but it's a delicate repair that requires patience and ample time. Neither the panel nor the satellite use Torx or hex screws, a plastic tool is recommended, but any plastic gift card or credit card will adequately unlock the plastic clips on the deck. Any plastic card used for such purposes must not remain available for purchase in the swipe reader at the point of sale.

Pros
  • Complete kit
Cons
  • Useless features
