    I work for a samsung repair partner. The reason the black screens are more expensive is because they've been on limited stock for around 2 years. it was the most popular model phone i repaired in 2021 by far.

      Black is generally the most common option on phones, so I'm not surprised here that this was on back order parts wise. Lots of people prefer not to having their device look flashy as with the other colors.

    I’ve been watching your videos for nearly 2 years now, I’m only 14 but have started my buy, repair, and resell business on eBay. I love repairing devices and there’s a satisfying feeling about a repair on those devices. I only work on iPhones though, but am planning to spread to other devices or even other brands. This all is only possible due to what you taught me, all my experience came from your videos. It all started when my iPhone 6 had touch disease, I watched one of your videos on a screen replacement for this device, and it only grew from there. By now I’ve probably repaired over 100 iPhones. Thanks Hugh Jeffrey’s, I love your videos!

      Good Luck! I suggest starting with popular, yet not too expensive Android devices (well, I don't know which Android models are popular in your country so I can not suggest any of them) You will see, that some of them have way easier repairability, than iPhones.
      In any case, keep upwhat you're duing!

      For sure. I miss that. And the colors of the note 10 plus. The grey on the s20 ultra looked good too but someyhing about that glow is awesome. Though the fact that my s22 ultra is green may e helps me keep it in a case, where the former two I constantly kept out of the cases. I still have the note 10 plus and the back glass is shattered. Though it was in the strongest case I ever owned wjen it happened so idk if cases even really matter or not these days.

Yeah, I get the urge to be at the bleeding edge of technology but when you sit back and realize that companies are holding back advancements because planned obsolescence is a real thing having the latest and greatest doesn't mean as much any more.

      I have a Google Pixel 4 Xl,
      My brother recently purchased a Pixel 7 Pro, I played with the phone for a bit and realized that the huge improvement I'd thought I'd get, just wasn't there.
      Especially in photo taking, though video was a huge improvement with 4k 60fps video on all cameras.
      All in all, it's pretty much the end of upgrading every 2-3 years now.
      Phones have peaked.
      With that said, I'm excited about the Pixel 8 Pro!

      Samsung no longer has headphone jacks from S21 and newer models, so my S10+ will be with me for a few more years. And it is a refurbished phone from Musicmagpie.

    Could you have used ODIN to flash international firmware to get the new antenna to work?
