While it's not hard to repair per se, the screen replacement prices are where most find an issue. Thanks for watching guys, hope you enjoyed this one.

I'm currently a MDM admin so seeing not only the software but also the hardware of the devices is awesome! Thanks for your informative and interesting videos!

I think we gotta remember that ifixit rates the iphone as the most repairable phone after the fairphone, am starting to think that they base their repairbility scores on which phone is easier to open up, not repair assesment or part serialization.

I have to say, i enjoyed the sponsor

It didn't felt annoying and yes it's true that so much info is by default available to various sites

It might be my speculation, but once i downloaded an app to get info on cpu, without granting any permission whatsoever to the app, it already told me most of the specifications of the phone that would likely be not even present on the box or in the spec sheet of shopping sites, that alone shows how we're walking in a forest with our backs turned towards the danger

Maybe you recorded the s23 ultra video in 4k 60Fps, which means it can not change the camera module while you are Zooming in. It seems like you started recording with the ultra wide camera. Before you start recording, you need to change the camera, or you can change the settings to 4k 30fps so it can change the camera while recording

The foam balls in the speaker cavity is not to make it sound louder but to reduce distortion from micro speakers.

How did you start repairing phones and how did tou learn how to fix phones ?

[fgzkj]

at 5:17 did you just damage the shield already below the front camera connector?

[wtf]

Really sad to hear that people now say this is a "removable battery".
When I heard you say that I thought the battery was just laying in there and could be taken out like in old phones where you just had to lift one side and there were some spring pins that made contact to the battery.

But this is just like any other battery in modern smartphones, maybe a better mechanism to get it out than the pull tabs, but nothing special.
