It took me 4 hours, much of that was slowness at the beginning and meticulous removal of the old adhesive for the screen. The actual screen removal was so much easier than I was afraid of. I followed along with both their text & video guides and it was all pretty straightforward if a little nerve wracking and time consuming. Very happy with it! If anyone has any questions about the process lmk
I've been tempted to get one. Is the screen work easier than an iphone screen of any generation? Hating those has been my biggest deterrent.
I've never worked on a phone tbh so no point of comparison. It was much easier than I expected, I just followed the directions. Heated the screen for about a minute around the edges with my hair dryer, put the included suction cup on and pulled straight out just enough to get these thin plastic cards wedged in. Had to run those around the edges to cut through / peel up the adhesive then I juat pulled and the screen came off. There was a little residual adhesive so scraping that off took some time since I wanted it to be nice and flush.
