First I love my LG G8 purchased in 2020 and the battery was on its last legs with very short usage between charges. Thank you so much for this video Watched it a couple of times today pulled out the battery kit and took a deep breathe lol. Following your instructions step by step gave me a lot of confidence replacement went smoothly and happy to report my phone is working like always! I couldn't be happy... Thanks again!

Thank you so much for letting me know. I always hope these videos are helping someone in some way. Glad to hear your G8 is working well again. I'll be using mine until the wheels fall off as they say.

I recommend using a card and some alcohol to remove it. If you use that spatula that way you can break the cover or in the worst case puncture that battery, causing an explosion, be careful.

Normally, I'm a little nervous about the after marker batteries. This one is holding up well. Most of the videos on this channel are recorded using that same cell phone you see in this video. :) The only thing is that this kit doesn't come with the sealing tape for the back cover. Just something to keep in mind.
