JacobsParts Nylon Plastic Opening Repair Tool for iPhone, Smart Phone, Tablet and Laptop, Non-Marring (5 Pack)

Absolute junk. The hooks break easily. After breaking a few I realized there’s a reason why you get five tools in the package when all you need is one good one. The reason is they will all break. This item is useless.If whoever makes or sells this is reading: People need one tool to open their iPhone, not five. How about you concentrate on making one quality tool instead of putting five useless ones into a package and taking our money!

I bought this pry tool because I was taking apart my PS4 controller so I could change the shell on it. Worked great, but the edges were worn and bent out of shape after the first use. It's not really durable and you end up being unable to re-use it a second time. Rated 3 star on durability for that same reason.

I bought this to be able to open my tablet to replace a battery. They worked very well and efficiently without making any kind of marks in the seam around the unit or gashes in the screen. I did find watching youtube videos how to open my tablet, however it looks like they opening their tablet from the front and mine actually opened from the back. Just keep that in mind if you order these and it feels like they are not working, it could just be a different point of entry needed because they do work.

I'm sure it's suppose to do what it says, but I am still having no luck in removing the cover off my Tab, sure there are a lot of video's out there but I can't seem to get the cover off mine. Other than that it does not mar or scratch the covering on the back of the Tab. which is great if I can get it opened.5/28 Update - I was finally able to get the cover of the Tab open, I broke another tool, but finally got it open. Still a great tool to use on these operations.

My acoustic bass guitar has an extremely challenging battery compartment door. I was marring the plastic edge of the door with a precision screw driver every time I had to change the battery. This tool is perfect in size and tip angle. Now I just depress the locking clip and slip this under the lip of the door and it opens.

Sh*t does not work. I've used a friend's similar tool on my phone without a problem, but this one does not sufficiently wedge into the gap between the two pieces of the phone cover for it to open up. Rather, it just leaves plastic (nylon?) "dust"...some of which, in all likelihood, will settle into the gap. A sturdier tool does not get eaten away by a single use like that. Not to mention that it does.not.work.(!)It's apparently worked for other people according to reviews, so I'm open to the possibility that it's a quality control issue. Due to the nonnegligible amount of "dust", I'm really not inclined to experiment with all 5 (as opposed to 3 already) pieces that came in the pack.

A must have if you plan on changing a tablet battery for the first time. Plan on breaking a few during the process. But will eventually be able to get cover open. Most batteries come with 1. Order additional with battery order. You will need them.

This repair tool is not strong enough to be useful for prying open a well sealed phone or tablet. It breaks after only a few prying attempts. The corner of an old credit card is more durable and works better.
