Replacement panels as monitors

[luison44]

Hi, my name is Luis, I am an engineering student. I have just started using a tablet as my note taking method. I am using the galaxy tab s7, while the experience has been great I need more than one screen most of the time. One for the actual writing and the other one for questions, theory and so on.

 

I was looking for a second display for the tablet. However all had issues, too big, too small, resolution,... I came to the conclusion that the best screen was the one that the tablet uses. This way the screen resolution is the same and more important the size is perfect. It could be just like the LG phone that had two screens, not the wing, the one that opened like a book. The problem is that the replacement panel has no usb-C or any ports. Is there an adapter like the ones used on laptops screens. It has to adapt the flex connection to usb-C.

Yes! Also, no.

 

You will need to get an adapter for that specific display, which may prove difficult for a proprietary (and more than likely rare) display such as that one. You best bet would be to find an HDMI adapter for that model of display then use a USB-C -> HDMI adapter out of the Tab S7 -> display adapter -> panel. You best bet for finding one would be Google: 'Panel Model # + HDMI adapter'.

 

This may prove more difficult than it's worth. 

 

Here's a great video from DYI Perks that does with (albeit with a laptop display, which would be much easier to find an adapter for)

That's what I thought. Well I will try to find the adapter. If I find it I will try to post the progress. Thank you for your reply.
