Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 X200/X205 Charging Port Board (Pull-A)

Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 X200/X205 Charging Port Board (Pull-A)

Replace a damaged internal charging board in a compatible Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 10.5-inch (2021) with this genuine Samsung Pull-A component. Pull-A means the part was removed from an original donor Samsung device and graded for reuse. It is not a new Samsung Service Pack part.

The sale includes one charging port board as shown for Crazy Parts SKU Pull-Cport-X200 and supplier item ID 64329. The tablet, charging cable, charger, adhesive, tools and installation labour are not included. Compare the connector, board shape, mounting points and port position with the original part before installation.

Compatibility

• Device: Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 10.5-inch (2021).

Confirm the full tablet model before purchase. This part is not intended for the Galaxy Tab A8 8.0-inch, Galaxy Tab A7, Galaxy Tab A9 or another Samsung tablet with a similar name. The model can usually be checked in Settings, on the rear label or on the original internal component. Devices that have been repaired previously can contain mixed parts, so a visual comparison remains important.

What this part may address

This board may be suitable when diagnosis identifies physical wear, contamination, corrosion or connector damage on the original charging-port assembly. Symptoms can include unreliable cable connection, charging that starts and stops when the plug moves, failure to charge with known-good accessories or visible damage inside the USB-C port.

Those symptoms do not prove the charging board is faulty. A damaged cable or charger, debris in the port, battery failure, board-to-board flex damage, motherboard faults, liquid exposure or software behaviour can cause similar problems. Diagnose the tablet before ordering. Replacing this board will not repair unrelated battery, display, touch, audio or motherboard faults.

Pull-A condition

This is a reused genuine Samsung component removed from an original donor device. It is not factory-new and may show light marks from removal, inspection and storage. Cosmetic variation that does not affect fit can occur, and production markings may vary between compatible Samsung revisions.

Inspect the received board before installation and compare it with the original. Do not install a part that differs in connector layout, board outline, mounting points or port position. Keep the original component until the repair has been completed and tested.

Professional installation recommended

Tablet disassembly involves strong adhesive, fragile display connections and lithium-ion battery safety. Professional installation is strongly recommended. Back up important data, switch the tablet off and disconnect the battery as early as the service procedure safely permits.

Use controlled heat and suitable non-conductive tools. Never use metal tools near a connected battery, force a connector into place or apply concentrated heat. A misaligned connector can bend pins or damage the motherboard socket. Stop work if the battery is swollen, punctured, overheating or producing an unusual smell.

General installation outline

1. Confirm the tablet is an SM-X200 or SM-X205 and diagnose the charging fault.
2. Test with known-good charging accessories and inspect the port for removable debris.
3. Compare the replacement board with the original part before fitting.
4. Power down the tablet and follow an appropriate model-specific service procedure.
5. Open the device carefully and disconnect the battery where practical.
6. Release the original board and connected flexes without damaging sockets or nearby components.
7. Position the Pull-A board correctly and seat each connector squarely.
8. Temporarily reconnect the battery and test charging before applying final adhesive.
9. Reassemble only after checking stable charging and any functions disturbed during repair.

This outline is general information and does not replace technician training or a Samsung service procedure. JPC Mobile can assess professional installation separately; the listed price is for the part only.

Inspection and testing

Inspect the USB-C port, board, flex connectors and mounting points under good light. Photograph cable routing and screw positions during disassembly. Before resealing the tablet, use known-good accessories and confirm that charging remains stable without moving or holding the cable at an angle.

Check the battery indicator, USB connection where relevant, display, touch, speakers and buttons after reassembly. Intermittent behaviour can indicate a poorly seated connector, damaged interconnect flex, frame pressure or a fault elsewhere in the tablet. Avoid repeated insertion if the plug does not fit normally.

Availability and price

Shopify recorded two local units during this review. Crazy Parts currently lists the exact Pull-Cport-X200 item as in stock in both Sydney and Melbourne, so supplier-order availability remains enabled. Availability can change before an order is allocated.

The A$24.90 selling price includes GST. Crazy Parts lists A$23.90 plus GST public retail, while Australian part-only comparisons observed during this review were approximately A$20.00, A$24.99 and A$25.29 including GST. Shopify records A$12.55 unit cost excluding GST, giving an estimated 44.6% gross margin on GST-exclusive sales revenue before payment fees, freight, packaging, handling and returns. The current price therefore remains market-aligned and exceeds JPC Mobile's minimum 40% parts margin.

Supplier warranty and Australian Consumer Law

Crazy Parts currently lists a 12-month supplier warranty for this exact SKU. Any voluntary supplier coverage is subject to the supplier's current terms, exclusions, assessment and availability; it is not represented as a separate JPC Mobile manufacturer warranty. Keep the packaging and purchase records and contact JPC Mobile before removing or returning an installed part if a possible defect is identified.

This supplier-warranty information does not exclude, restrict or modify any consumer guarantee, right or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. Installation damage, damaged ports or connectors, liquid exposure, excessive heat, incorrect fitment, misuse and faults elsewhere in the tablet are not by themselves evidence that the supplied part was defective.
