At 3:49 there's no need to remove the flex cables to remove the battery. Simply warm up the screen side on low 80C setting on a heat plate for about 3 minutes, bend the flex cables over to the screen side and apply a bit of tape to hold it, pull or pry the battery, and it comes out nice and easy. And for heaven's sake, please don't inject any rubbing alcohol under the battery, while it evaporates, it can damage the sensitive AMOLED if it seeps under the screen. I do this every day at my repair shop, saves a lot of time and aggravation. ;)

@@TheMaychalPl Had that on a Fujitsu Lifebook U904, it's just 19mm thin, so similar to a MacBook Air, but the U904 and also the newer U938 are really modular: they have a soldered CPU (the U series were never made socketed), but RAM slot (some RAM is soldered on but they have a SODIMM slot for expansion), M.2 SSD (7mm 2.5" in the U904) and WiFi and mobile Broadband "WWAN" modules, all these parts are socketed. They also have a very fancy Ethernet port that you pull out and then it unfolds, IMHO it shows that Apple took the easy, lazy way to simply ditch the ethernet port since the Retina MacBook Pros instead of developing such a thing. And the battery isn't glued in with a ton of that but held by a plastic "carrier" with a few screws.

I think the strong adhesive on the battery softens out with the time. You have to remember you are removing a brand new phone, with a brand new battery. With the vapor chamber being attached to the battery too, it will transfer head along the adhesive, so I think it so minimize battery movement on the near future, and also minimize battery incidents (aka note 7) Edit: Well, to everyone, thats why I started with "I think", thanks for the explanations and personal experiences

@klopferator 5 ай бұрын

I don't know about that. I can't say anything about Samsung or Apple, but when I replaced the battery on my over 10 year old Kindle, the adhesive in the device was still extremely strong. I don't believe they are accounting for softening of adhesives over time when they design these things.

They are a bit slippery to hold though without case. (and tech wise pretty much outdated, although they have USB-C, Qi charging, a good oled screen, reasonable memory, wifi 5, NFC, gyro sensor etc. Pretty good for a phone that is now almost 7 years old (the S8 that is)

For adhesive like that it's important to apply rapid hard forces than an even ramping pulling force. Otherwise you'll end up pulling a lot harder than you need to. Think of it like loosening a rusty nut, a few taps with a reasonably light hammer requires a lot less force to break it than a breaker bar and body weight.

Also, my main phone, Samsung Galaxy S9+, is rocking Android 10, which although reasonably modern, is the last supported OS for many apps nowadays, and the critical apps are now Android 7.0+. So it seems that I might be getting a phone upgrade after all soon. Might also buy that folding Motorola as a secondary device - never had the chance to use a folding phone before ;)

I have an S23 Ultra and am perfectly happy with it. If the trade in made it less, I might have considered it but I would have still had to pay more than $400 plus the cost for a new case. No thanks, maybe next year..

The S23 vs the S24 is a negligible upgrade. It's essentially the same phone, with just a few really minor tweaks. I would've gone for the S23 if Samsung had not made it completely unavailable in the time between the S24 being announced and released

@bradhaines3142 4 ай бұрын

i have an s22 with no complaints about it, but if my s9+ didnt drown id probably still be using that too. the whole 'my phone ive had less than a year is still fine' is such a dumb comment. of course it is, if it wasnt you bought the wrong phone to begin with. and getting a top of the line phone it better be good enough because there's no way up from the top. you may as well be saying 'my lambo from last year is still fast' well no shit sherlock.

On the Samsung trying to be Apple thing, I recently went to the Highpoint Apple store to have them do something about the broken rear mic on my 15 Pro Max (which they covered under warranty and had replaced the rear-glass assembly within 2 hours), and I noticed across from Apple and one floor down was a dedicated Samsung store, and it looked just like the Apple store but 1/4 the size and with less people inside. It was actually kind of funny.

@Kalvinjj 5 ай бұрын

I think the Note 7s issue with lack of space was inside the battery itself tho, it was literally a design defect with the battery itself, where the layers could end up shorting if I'm remembering it correctly. I don't think any phone in past 10 years has any room for the battery to freely expand a bit here and there.

@QuackZack 4 ай бұрын

I think Samsung 'soft cementing' their batteries in place with adhesive comes from paranoia from the Note 7 days. Even though it was more of a manufacturing defect combined with giving zero breathing room for the battery. At least a pull tab is better than zero so combined with alcohol and some heat it's safer to pull out than prying it out and risk puncturing.

My oldish tablet's android version is 5.1.1 lol. Good enough to some light browsing and watching videos along with a lil bit of gaming but nothing fancy. Camera lens is missing for some unknown reason but I've used the camera only a few times ever. Battery is bigger than I remember it to be, 4000 mAh capacity.

@Kalvinjj 5 ай бұрын

sounds an awful lot like an LG G Pad 7, I've got one of those (don't know if it's 5.1 tho or just 5.0 but not much of a difference). Removed the camera lens myself since the stupid thing is the thickest point so it got super scratched and couldn't read QR codes anymore (it's only real use). Works well when you disable ALL the google stuff that just ain't helping with anything after all. It's quite incredible what de-googling the device did to it, runs like new other than some random reboots (I think it might be reaching storage write limits on some blocks and plain corrupting some system areas).

@@Kalvinjj Samsung Galaxy Tab A6 lite. I had to factory reset it one time cause I couldn't use the playstore on it but only thing I used it for was KZfaq, light gaming, and that radio app. I may just pick it up again, uninstall KZfaq & disable it, and install some games on it at some point. Most google stuff is already disabled so minimal work on my end. Love the tablet even if it is outdated lol.
