Use this guide to replace the front case on your Galaxy Book Pro 360 15" laptop with a genuine Samsung part.
The front case consists of the keyboard and touchpad pre-installed into the frame. Make sure you have the right part before you begin the repair.
Before you begin, refer to the Samsung PC Repair Guide for safety information.
For your safety, discharge the battery below 25% before disassembling your device. This reduces the risk of a thermal event if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair. If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.
Note: Some photos show the heat sink and primary SSD removed. This is optional, as you don't need to remove the heat sink or the primary SSD to remove the motherboard.
