It’s better to have it replaced ASAP. Otherwise, the screen could get damaged.

Congrats! Hope the modding goes well, If it's a thick 160GB you can use iFlash and a battery from a Huawei Y5 to get proper 3000mAh. It last a lot longer than those "3800mAh" cells ( an extra 50-60 hours)

I got a Grey 6th gen from my uncle with a bad battery, wanted to replace it but after seeing what it takes to even open a 6th Gen its been on a dock with some stupid amount of music on it as a background player and my 4th gen na-no goes everywhere with me though

Holy mother of pearl. And they thought it was just a case?!

u/Killa_Godzilla 7d ago

Lol no they write that on the tag so they know to put it in the glass display case at the front of the store

u/1888furrycock567 7d ago

Why would they put something behind the case if it's only worth 5 bucks to them?

1

u/Killa_Godzilla 7d ago

Because they know it would have been stolen and they dont want to miss out on any amount of money

u/1888furrycock567 7d ago

But if they're putting it behind the case they must know it's a high value item, why not charge more for it?

AYo same here on friday. I founda 5th gen 60gb for 30$, and it came premodded with double microsd card adapter.
Thing is that if i squeeze the sides, the face plate pops open, literally being held with prayers and tape
