Sony Xperia Z3 Compact Repair - Pop-up Screen (Battery)
(1) Had bought an Z3 Tablet Compact 4 years back about S$600.
Last week (Oct 21,2019) found the plastic screen protector and the display pop up/out from the right side of the tablet yet the tablet is functioning properly.
Clearly the cause of this is because the glue holding the plastic protector with the frame had dried out.
Called up Sony Customer Care for a repairing quote.
Had just received the quote from them and it is a whopping S$1,157+ which is double the original purchasing cost.
Since repairing cost is HIGH, staff had suggested to use the tablet until it is not functioning.
What a joke!
Guess I will drop Sony from my prefer vendor list.
(2) Brought the tablet to a repair shop next to the escalator at SLS L2 (Nov 2, 2019). The technician took a look of the tablet for a few seconds and has determined that the problem is caused by the (bloated) battery. Cost to replace this Z3TC battery is S$70.00 and will take only half an hour. Happily took the offer and the Z3TC is now functioning 100% as before....
