That penny comparison really highlights how crazy the work you do is. It is so impressive you are able to do such clean and successful work on such tiny components.

its not just apple, other manufacturers also use overfill and underfill, but i must admit that pesky charging flex is a dirty move by apple.

Uh no. I like my waterproofing very much. When you ship millions of devices glue and protective coatings result in less damaged PCBs and waste then any amount of fixing could make up for.

Wicked AWESOME job!!! I didn't know much about the soldering of components onto a PCB, but after watching your for a few months (maybe a year... I think I discovered you when I was down with COVID last January) I've learned a LOT. BIG RESPECT for someone with your talent. And SCREW APPLE!!!! That glue and all those pins on the connector are simply to make it as daunting of a repair task as possible.

Never would I buy an Apple device. If I ever win one or am gifted with one, I will sell it. The measures they take to stop you from fixing your own device is insane. They just want you to keep buying multiple devices from them. Don't fix it, just buy it again and again and again.

My brother has an iPhone and a MacBook Air. Once I asked him, why he bought an Apple. The answer was: "All my colleagues at work, have Apple phones and products." He is a doctor. I am a land surveyor. I use my laptop for work. Cad programs and so on. I bought a Legion 5 gaming laptop, with a 2060 RTX for 950€ almost three years ago. At that time he bought that MacBook for 1400€. And essentially it is an overpriced Gucci purse for reading emails. It has a fraction of the processing power and capabilities of the Lenovo. And from all the videos I seen, Apple is made to break after the warranty expires, and to be as difficult to repair as possible...or impossible. Just come and buy a new designer purse from us. We are not scammers. No way.

Hi, very interesting. One question: 5:26 (and at 5:50), you are saying that the melting temperature is about 48 C, but the Low Melt Solder Pack of 6 Sticks (your link) has a melting temperature of about 160-200 C. How does it come?

could you not solder the flex cable on the same way you would a chip? apply solder to the pads, line it up and then use hot air to melt the solder making connection. Wouldn't it provide better contact too given that there is no glue anymore.

FYI, hand sanitizer works great for turning glue goopy enough to scrape off without damage in most cases.

@LabArlyn 5 ай бұрын

But hand sanitizers are sticky, and release some fume.

@Nomad_Wanderer 5 ай бұрын

@djmips 5 ай бұрын

In the video he uses heat plus alcohol and some mechanical scraping - very effective.

@bmxscape 5 ай бұрын

hand sanitizer is made with: water + alchohol(about 60%), and some kind off gel usually glycerin if i remember correctly. you want to use 99% iso to not leave any residue. but the hand sanitizer would evaporate less fast so if you have to avoid mechanical scraping for some reason it could be effective to have long-lasting alcohol(sanitizer) sit on the glue to react with it longer

@lemagreengreen 5 ай бұрын

Hand santiizer is always ethanol based, isn't it? denatured, of course. If it is then it will be little different to isopropanol for that purpose.
