2:45 is NOT the telephoto. It is the main wide angle sensor. That’s why it’s bigger. This year the wide angle (not ultra wide) sensor is on the bottom on only the max I believe. Also you can confirm this by looking at the Apple keynote.

TNX, please show us how you put aside the components that you've taken apart. It's vital for a beginner

You missed the Wi-Fi Flex Module which is located on the top left region of the housing, obscured by all the black stuff.
06:54 The 5G Antenna to the right side isn't exactly built in, it's held down by some adhesive. You're able to push it out with some small nudges to the top and bottom of the Antenna.
Not trying to be judgmental as this video helped me out a lot in what parts I need to get for my iPhone I bought on eBay, but those two are pretty important to fully tearing down the device if someone needs to replace a broken housing

LOL!!!! this screen was removed before videos like these crack me up 😂

[techytech]

Best tear down on YouTube. The comparisons of the components with the 12 pro version really useful.

[smartphonerepairwi]

Time to stock up on 5G antenna flex cables. Many amateurs will rip this cable 🤣 Your video is very detailed for USA models. Much thanks!

[Cmarier]

I can’t tell if you’re unscrewing clock wise OR counter clock wise. So from the beginning for a beginner I’m frustrated.

[heavensphotography]

I have worked with iPhones for 13 years, and from the 12 models it is so hard to open up the screen without crack it or the colored lines apeared and you need a new screen, do you have any good tips? This screen on the video i can garanteed has been removed before.

Wonder if the mm wave cutout makes the frame weaker ?? I’m in Australia so mine doesn’t have it. Great content 👌👌

[techytech]

This is so much better than the ridiculous ifixit channel that treats each video like a a sleepover party.

Hi where i purchase a iphone 12 pro lay out mat to orginise the don parts?

[rancillinmontgomery]

What’s the name of that sensor you took out right before the LiDAR? I can’t understand.

[aliceschulze]

You don’t show how to remove the coil for the mag chsrge

[paulbonifacio]

Do you think those internal components would break or loosen up/shaken up when the phone is dropped? Thanks for the answer.

[LeonZaneFigueira]

you make jerry rigs everything look like an amateur lol

[ikuyejutaiwo]

Good everyone 🙏 plz i have iphone 12 pro max that do restarting in every 30sec what can i do?

[rancillinmontgomery]

Building my own pro max 12. Good to know where everything goes and what I still need to buy. The rear camera and oled screen so expensive. Figuring out which screws go where was a challenge in the 6 plus how’s it compare o. The 12pm?

[huaminhkhanh]

7:44 why doesn't my iphone 12 promax have the light sensor cable ? I saw some teardown 12promax video also don't have this cable

[shaheensa]

Video is great. I have one question bottom of iphone 12 pro max have two speaker holes, 6 holes have speaker what about other 4 holes ? Speaker is there or not ?
