Techy words- "pentalobe"

Question

Anybody know about phone repairs and have the vocab for it in Spanish? I just started a new job, and it would be useful to learn to say this stuff in Spanish. ¿Cómo se dice "pentalobe" como el destornillador? ¿Sería "el destornillador de cinco puntos"? También, phillips head/flat head. For the flat head, es común decir: destornillador plano? Hay muchas palabras y frases que salen en el traductor.

Answer 1

Hey, I also repair iPhones, albeit in my spare time.

Destornillador cruciform/hexagonal/punta tipo Torx/pentalobular = Phillips/Hex/Torx/Pentalobe

Pentalobe could also be "pentalob cinco puntas" or "pentalob estrella cinco puntas" It's not quite clear that it has an official name since it's a proprietary apple screw and nobody quite knows how it fits in to the general screwdriver scheme in any language.

Tornillos = screws

Pantalla táctil = touchscreen

Pegatina de montaje = adhesive strips

Botón de inicio = home button

Adaptador de SIM = sim adapter

herramienta de apertura = plastic spudger/opening tool

Thanks!! This is just what I was hoping someone would share (: - alicia8, Mar 5, 2013
