    Heloo everyone.
    My laptop was charging on the bed and unfortunatelly fell down, landing directly on the charger sticking out of the laptop.
    The laptop won't charge now.
    The charger cable looks okay, but the charging port is most probably unrepairable, because it's broken.
    Does anyone know the exact model of the charging port?
    Is it possible to replace it on your own?
    Thank you for your answers :)

    Samsungparts.com has several NP770Z7E jacks and connectors but none are obviously a power jack.

    Unfortunately, I can't find an internal photo to see whether the power socket is mounted on the board or is on the end of a cable. The former is more vulnerable to damage. You need to remove the base and have a look inside (and take some photos).
