usable tablet with broken glass/screen?

[paparazzo79]

Hi guys.
I wonder if this tablet is usable in near future?
I wonder how come I don't see yet artifacts of a broken screen (vertical lines)?
It's a Tab S4.

I's just the glass digitizer that is broken, the screen is fine.

So perfectly usable?

Yes, usable. If the impact of the hit that has cracked the glass digitizer was with more force, then the LCD would also have been killed to show the lines you are mentioning or worse. Search for replacement Tab S4 digitizers on Aliexpress or Amazon to repair this unit. You will need a heating table (recommended) to remove the front side glued digitizer. Best to watch a few videos on the repair process on youtube.

I wish I could repair it by myself.
i bought it from a guy.
Aliexpress sucks with Bosnia.
99% of shipments are overpriced and shipping cost is way more then what I ordered.
If I would go with Samsung retail store they would rip me off so I will use the tablet as it is...probably will get case if I'd find one here.
but thx guys for answers,I thought I paid for nothing.

Check your local cell / mobile phone repair shops. They will have the tools to perform this repair which is a hot air gun that will be required to remove the glued on digitizer. Have to be careful on the heat so that the LCD is not burnt from the process and will cause permanent discoloration of the nice LCD display. Then they swap out the digitizer which is not a major job and glue it back on. Ask around as it is a common point of failure. Your local malls should have someone who does this type of repair.
