Huge props to the engineers who decided to use the same size screws on all of the inside. It's a nightmare when you have a lot of different sizes while repairing.

Great video, as always. Love the precision and care you have towards devices. I have a question related to 9:08. Say I was trying to deep clean my phone,what would happen if you stuck a pair of tweezers into the speaker grill to get the grime out, but accidentally push too hard into the speaker hole? Similarly, what would happen if I stuck the corner of a sheet of paper into the top earpiece speaker to try to get the dust out? Would both of these be harmful to the waterproofing gaskets? If yes, what would you recommend to get those two places cleaned properly, as they're very hard to do so?
