Are there any specific tools recommended for checking screen cracks on the Redmi Watch 5 Active


For checking screen cracks on the Redmi Watch 5 Active, there are no specific tools recommended by the manufacturer. However, you can use general methods to inspect the screen for damage:

1. Visual Inspection: Carefully examine the screen under good lighting conditions to spot any visible cracks or damage. Look for lines, chips, or any other signs of physical impact.

2. Magnifying Glass or Loupe: Using a magnifying glass can help you get a closer look at the screen to identify smaller cracks that might not be immediately visible to the naked eye.

3. Screen Protector Removal: If your watch has a screen protector, remove it to inspect the screen more clearly. Sometimes, cracks can be hidden under the protector.

4. Water Test: Although the Redmi Watch 5 Active is water-resistant (IPX8 rated), water can sometimes seep into the device if there are cracks. Submerge the watch in water (if you're comfortable doing so) and check for any water bubbles forming under the screen, which could indicate a crack.

5. Professional Inspection: If you're unsure or if the damage is not visible, consider taking the watch to a professional repair service for a thorough inspection.

Remember, if you find any cracks, it's advisable to contact Xiaomi support or visit an authorized service center for further assistance or repair options.

Additionally, if your screen is unresponsive due to a crack or other issues, you might need to troubleshoot or reset the device. For unresponsive screens, videos like the one on fixing unresponsive screens on the Redmi Watch 5 Active can provide helpful troubleshooting tips[3].
