Ubrokeifixit for OnePlus 6T Housing Rear Back Glass Door Cover Replacement for OnePlus 6T A6010 A6013 LTE 6.41" (Mirror Black)

UPDATE, yeah, it turns out it *was* glass, after all, with some kind of convincing matte finish that was really nice. I didn't want glass because a cell phone's exterior should not be made of glass. Unfortunately, like the last 3x I bought, it shattered even beneath a beefy "tough armor" case. I had no idea until many months later because I never take my case off. Bummer. I want to drop stars so bad, but it's a really nice product and it does say glass _now_. When I initially got it, I searched to the ends of the internet to find one that wasn't glass, and ended up getting this one in the hopes that it was plastic, as the matte in the pic seems to be. It flexed a bit without breaking and really fooled me, too. My search continues since I am gifting it to my 11 year old and now have an even stronger imperative to find NON-GLASS. Hey, UBreakIFixit, why have you not made us a plastic rear panel yet? There's a market for it. These engineers are crazy for making cell phones' housings out of glass...we all know how phones can get beat up...I'm probably going to have to commission one from a resin 3D Printer. If you keep breaking glass, do not get this because it will just be more money flushed down the commode. You'd fix your phone more reliably by layering gorilla tape or something, rather than replacing it with this product. ORIGINAL: I *tried* searching for metal, plastic or literally anything other than the fickle OEM glass covers. I almost resorted to 3D printing one or something, but came across some review on this item where someone complained about this being plastic. For me, that's literally a 5-star pro and not at all a con. Though it says it's replacement glass, it is indeed plastic and not glass! This is way better than glass, imo! Granted, it's the most expensive piece of thin plastic I've ever paid for, $18 still isn't too bad. The adhesive isn't the thickest, but I cleaned the back of my phone with alcohol, peeled the transparent covers and stuck it to my phone. It pretty easily lined up and sat into place like it is meant to. Once seated, I carefully hit mine with a heat gun on the low setting and was sure to get the back hot while the rest of the phone was room temp (not even warm). I feel pretty sure I cured the adhesive/glue so that it will stick for the remaining life of my aging 6T. I'd recommend others to use a blow-dryer if they don't have a heat gun. Just sticking the adhesive might work but I wouldn't risk it. Or maybe stick your phone out in the sun on a hot summer day, but be sure it doesn't overheat whatever you do. I'm hoping this plastic will last longer than the OEM glass, which for me never lasted more than a week without shattering. 🤞 The only thing that would be better would be kevlar or carbon nanotubes or something. But plastic should suffice.

First of all, as mentioned in the description, no instructions are included. However, I just googled OnePlus 6T Back Cover Replacement and watched a few videos I got a little nervous heating up my $550 smartphone to loosen the glue that held the broken back to the chassis. Mine had dropped twice, once on coarse gravel which left a fairly deep crushed spot near the camera which spread out over the back and crossed the other cracks from a previous corner crash. I used a hair dryer on high and tried and tried for maybe 30 minutes to get a corner to lift. I didn't want to overheat it so I was really over-cautious. Finally, I was able to get my thumbnail (the tools were too unweildy) to lift the cover slightly. After reheating and lifting and wedging and repeating, I was finally able to lift it off. Because it had a good backing plate, it didn't break in tiny shards, just a few pieces came loose. After carefully removing all glue remnants from the channel around the perimeter, I peeled the cover off the glue strip around the edge of the new cover and firmly pressed it in place. All was well and it feels like a new phone. Highly recommended.

I put these on 2 phones at the same time. One went on great and is still holding up, the other one broke after a couple weeks. Adhesive isn't very good. They fit good and go on pretty easy, but it can be hard to line them up right. They also have a piece of adhesive around the camera that comes off of the glass and stays with its backing.

The glass worked and fit great. Now if only I hadn't destroyed the plastic trim around the frame that this glass adheres to...it would be perfect. Please keep in mind that this replacement does not come with the plastic trim/frame that rests between the glass and the metal. Take extra care not to remove the plastic trim from the phone.

Love the matte black! Overall very high quality, and would recommend! Only wish they had some more creative non OEM color options. I saw some reviews mention the camera cover is a lower quality easily scratched material, possibly plastic. Mine was glass, and didn't seem to scratch easily when I tried, but just to be cautious I used my original camera glass and transferred it from my cracked back that was being replaced. Really easy to do. I also saw a review saying that it doesn't have the interesting "S" shaped reflection in the light. Mine does. You can't usually notice it though, and I don't know how it compares to the original, because my phone was originally the mirror black finish. I was able to get that S reflection in a picture (although it wasn't easy, it has to be in just the right lighting) Another review mentioned there being no laminate to keep this glass together in case it shatters- I think that only applies to the clear back. Mine has material on the inside seemingly identical to the original part. One con: with the new glass installed, it doesn't seem to quite make contact in the middle, over the battery. If I push hard, you can hear a clicking sound as it triesp to adhere to the battery and then detaches as I release the pressure. But I have to push hard to notice that and it is very possible that it is only due to my instal being ever so slightly off center. Not a big deal at all. Tip: it's an easy install but as you place down the new glass, be very careful to lay it down right the first time! It adheres as soon as it makes contact and makes adjustment very difficult, although as long as you set it down lightly you can pull it off and try again.

The back plate for my OP6T shattered so I ordered this new back glass to repair it. I love how it has the OP symbol on the back Installationwsas extremely easy. The glue used to keep it down worked great. The grip with this clear back glass is a little slick so I recommend a case. All and all its a great replacement and a good value for your hard earned dollar.

Ya he comprado tapas traseras anteriormente y al parecer es de este mismo vendedor y como la vez pasada, me sorprendió. La calidad es igual o muy parecida a la parte anterior. La calidad de la tapa es muy buena, viene muy bien protegido, incluye algunas herramientas que ayudan bastante y el adhesivo es muy bueno, se adhiere muy fuerte. LO RECOMIENDO TOTALMENTE

Item is much better than other sellers, although the adhesive isn't great ( had to use b7000 to get good results ), overall all, i recommend,

Fit nice, looked really good once it was all said and done. Unfortunately I dropped my phone while it was in it's case and it shattered into big shards. Great replacement but definitely fragile.

Without oliophobic coating buuut that'd be too much to ask from such a replacement part.. pretty good though.
