Learn how to replace the GPD WIN 4 (all models) display with this step-by-step video guide. The essential tools required are a spudger and a heat source, such as a hot air gun or hairdryer, which is needed to loosen the screen’s adhesive. A hot air gun is preferable, but a hairdryer is a suitable alternative if you allow for extra time to soften the glue.
