Quite likely, I'd say.

Agreed. It would be an unusual one that *wasn€˜t* PCB mounted.

Yup - sounds good but a PITA when dropped.

Looks like in this case the connector is on a daughter board assembly,
which makes replacement much easier. (see the photos on the iFixit page)

Thanks.

One feature of the tablet is that it is water resistant (which is always a

Nothing is said about what adhesive (if any) to use when reassembling.

I may gently try a long reach connector first.

Battling with t'Internet to locate a replacement part which looks
identical to the iFixit one.
