I Bought 10 Broken iPhone X's - But Are They Fixable?

I Bought 10 Broken iPhone X's - But Are They Fixable? These 10 very broken iPhones were in a salvage lot I bought for $1,670. There was no way to know if most or all of them were iCloud locked so I didn't buy them to make money - I bought them to get better at repair. For these phones I diagnosed dock issues, replaced screens and back cases, found logic board issues, programed True Tone, and tried to figure out why the touch screen didn't work. Fortunately, even with my limited experience, I was able to fix a couple of them.

About This Video: In this video I'm trying to fix 10 iPhone X's which I don't have much experience with. I've found that's one of the best ways to learn repair though - just to buy some broken stuff and try to figure it out. Some stuff I know I won't be able to fix, like logic board issues and phones that are iCloud locked. But some stuff I can fix, like replacing screens, back cases, and batteries.

Should I make more videos trying to fix broken iPhones? (ALSO: All phones were tested with multiple screens to verify whether the touch function was working or not)

"The screens had scratched at level 6 with deeper grooves at level 7"

This guy is the most satisfying repairman I've ever watched, from now on this is where I'll be getting my fix, pardon the pun

[stefanodomeni]

Also TronicsFix: Fixes them with ease

I'm surprised how much the overall cost of the lot. Seeing as how bad the damages are, it should've been at least $700 and $900 at most.

I'm still baffled at people that buy a GLASS phone and refuse to put them in a case.

"Bent and twisted and totally broken inside"

I get that...

[hackedthegate]

I know nothing of fixing tech, but I find myself addicted to your videos 👌🏻

After watching this channel for a few months I decided to get a solder station and some parts. I asked my friends and family for broken stuff. I got an iPad and an iPod Touch. I was able to fix both broken screens, but it was a nightmare. Next up was a Google Pixel 3. Finding the correct parts (nfc mounted on the back glass, screen with digitizer, ect) was a huge pain and eventually I was just digging myself a hole on the project. Apparently modern phones are a nightmare to fix, and I'm not going to try that again.

I'm still waiting for a friend to turn up with a broken console, I've watched enough of your videos that I think I can manage one of those repairs if I can find the parts. Thanks!

Still cant understand how people can damage an expensive item, what did they do to number 7 use it for target practice.

Me: Hmmm 29 minutes, this video is too long!
Me 29 minutes later: Damn, this video was short!

Hey man! I’ve done roughly 100+ iPhone repairs and I’d say great start! The one tip I’d have is to twist those battery adhesive strips around your needle noses, a lot easier than pulling. If you twist your needle nose tweezers and keep it as close as possible to the battery, moving closer as more is twisted on the tweezers, you’ll get them almost every time

[Noonespecial]

The “tape” pull sound was glorious in its agony to hold on....

[heyitsrichie]

“Time to order some parts, now everyone’s favorite part, time to take them apart.” Wow that’s a lot of parts.

[AHumanIAmNot]

I wonder if he bought this lot from EverythingApplePro

You: “I know very little about iPhones”
Reality: You know more than 99% of people that purchase them.

Edit by end of video: Make that 99.999%
