HP Hinge

godtabh · 2024-06-06 20:24:50

I have a HP X360 convertible. The hinge is gone. Looking around appears to be a common issue with HP. I can buy the hinge and replacement backplate for the screen. The fix looks straight forward but a lot of warnings over the screen and how easy it would be to break. Any one done it? Is breaking the screen a big risk?

screens are risky . the convertable laptops are prone as are hp . screen repairs can kill laptops alltogether at times if things go wrong
