I hope with the next iphone apple does the removable glass thing with all models. It's unnecessarily expensive to replace the back glass on present ones.
Repairable spelling is wrong but It's ok
I am using ridge wallet for 3 years now since i saw you using it. But it seems to have caused (probably) damaged to my phone screen (i was using oneplus 3 that time), but i am not too sure. Can you do the test? I'm using same burnt titanium one. Appreciate it thanks.
Omg u didn't even tell me you were gonna feature the screwdriver! Thanks man! :D - LS
hi linus
Hey Linus
Linus sex tips 😳
Gonna *screw* some real shit about Nvidia
Don't you, Linus?
hi linus
This is huge! It’s just kinda odd Apple didn’t advertise this at all. They put in so much work completely redesigning the phone on the interior while it still looks exactly the same from the outside. Guess they didn’t talk about it because they would have had to admit wrongdoing in the past lol
Apple just likes to pretend that iPhones don't have interiors and are powered by magic
i dont see that price here in Australia maybe its because its US only thats why they kept it somehow a secret
Probably because the pro’s don’t have a redesigned internal layout like the regular 14’s have.
Apple pretty much always does this lol. For example the 7 and 8 look identical except for the glass back on the 8, but the internals are completely different.
Don’t use the word exactly when it’s not accurate.
You have no idea how happy this makes me as an Apple authorized service provider.
If anything I think this will make it worse for you as it lowers the barrier to entry.
But will you be allowed to do board repair or will it still be board replacement they want you to do
@@wageslave387 it might make it easier for individuals to do it, but it doesn't change the entry point to become an apple authorized repair shop
I use to be in CSS team for AASP support and I am happy too !
@@wageslave387 I highly doubt enough people will be willing to attempt repairing their phones to impact repair shops business more than the convenience of a more easily repairable phone.
That one snapped pulltab knew it couldnt compete against the first one. It threw the white towel immediatly lmao

I'm here to break the system
The pull tabs sound so satisfying lol
Pick ur towel and get lost bruh
Ur white towel
Hahaha perfect point bro!
"We have to used Alcohol to drown the rest of our problems"
This line got me laughing 🤣 😂
Cringe
Same 😂
It's fun because it's true
I can't drown my problems, they know how to swim 👀🤣
Well, you know, it helps dissolve the stickiness after all
I'm so excited for the Iballs to be implemented to the iPhone 16
iPhone 16 lost its balls, sorry mate
Waiting for 14 pro max tear down
THIS!!
Me too
Idiot you buy it and send to him for teardown
be patient all will come
You're gonna pay for it
I love this new iPhone line up, mainly cuz of this exact reason. The ONLY thing Apple really screwed over with the regular models is the lack of 120hz... If it only had that one singular feature it'd be a MUCH better value.
Theyre too big tho
Once again shoutout to Apple for doing what other phone companies have been doing years.
Watch a Samsung teardown, definitely not all phone companies are doing this.
That’s what we say doing ordinary things in an extraordinary way.
That’s what makes apple products special.
And doing it better.
Still Apple got loyal supporters. FFS
Samsung with under display high res cameras:
Your commentary while taking apart a phone is the greatest! The random humour is perfectly timed.
Agreed with this one. Informative yet humorous. Word play is to good 👍🏻
ok
ok
that tab pull shattered my perception of reality omfg
6:56 - Here starts the most satisfying part of the video.
didnt satisfy me stop spreading misinformation
i need to double tap 3 times to 15 seconds lol
I can see a iPhone 14 transparent being more possible now
Imagine if they make it and donate money to charity along with it
have been thinking of that since Phone Repair Guru's teardown of the 14 and I am waiting to see who will be the first to do it
cool thought
i wish
that's the Nothing Phone 1
"When will it end", is what I am thinking when Jerry started pull the rubber at 6:55 😆.
There’s something so captivating yet unsettling about watching Zach put these phones through the ringer inside and out . I’m glad he does tho , it’s so informative
His name is Zach. Lmao
I hereby nominate you for the best pull tab pull of all time @6:58. One hell of a perfect pull.
Throw some headphones on and you got yourself a nearly indistinguishable noise of a jackhammer.
Always loving the teardowns and durability tests. XD
Listening to Jerry crack subtle sarcastic jokes in such a calm manner is so satisfying
I have just considered of watching his videos before sleep. Man has such a calming voice and his speech delivery is so smooth. Especially without any irritating music.
Did just that. At least the scraping metal sounds are at the beginning.
This might be my favorite video from this channel yet! My mind was blown off my body when I found out that this iPhone can have the back glass easily removed. I loved all the jokes in the video, and even the ridge wallet sponsored segment was quite useful! Keep doing what you do!
on iphone 13 and 12, it needs to be shattered
Agree. I work at a small iPhone repair shop and the back glass replacements are the bane of my existence. Just the biggest pain.
I believe the only parts Apple should have to "validate" after a replacement should be parts related to security as in FaceID or TouchID. All other parts should be easy to replace without contacting Apple.
Nah even for that there isn't any reason they should need to validate.
but then stolen iphones can be easily resold for parts, so ...
but but that won't make apple profitable. How could they charge 500 usd for a battery change then 😢
yeah they get around that by claiming that everything is a security risk
why tho? it's still just a dumb sensor and the actual data is encrypted in the motherboard.
7:28 "Alcohol to drown rest of our problems" good point Zack! 😭👍
Shoutout to Ridge wallets! I got the key holder a while back, and after some abuse one of the screws holding the pocket clip came off of it when I took it out of my pocket. The screw is tiny, and was immediately lost. I emailed Ridge looking for a replacement screw (or even just the screw size) and they ended up shipping me a replacement key holder for free.
This replaceable back glass is a bigger deal than you would think. This opens up a very niche world of customization, where you can have different colored rails than your back glass. Maybe I'll try red rails and black back glass.
Now to find somebody to reprogram the parts in that new back glass to work with the phone lol
@@vaultboy1419 China in about a week probably lol
OMG yes, I remember this was pretty common with the iPhone 4 and 4S. Almost every mall had a stand to change the color of your iPhone
It would't be ideal though as you do tend to lose the water resistances after opening it up... that isn't to say that it can't be done properly, but compared to the original flush finish from the factory compared to a adhesive removed, scrapped and then resealed, it just wouldn't be as 'trustworthy'.
You could also do a glowing apple logo mod
7:05 My goodness...that's a long you pull.
Yep really really really long 😂
Hi
I’ve never understood why apple don’t want anyone to see the interiors of their phones where they look this good.
fr the engineering for the inside is beautiful, now that it's more repairable it can finally be beautiful to repair people
What I find funny is that they don't want you inside their products and despite this they have their apple logo everywhere it counts because they know someone will get in there.
Apple doesn’t want you to think of their devices as computers
@@someone7554 enlight me, what do they want people to see a computer as?
@@trenchcoatsftwthey want people to see their devices as mysterious magical objects that can only be obtained from Apple
I gotta say, I don't like iPhones, but I do like the way Apple designs the interior of the phones. Very organized, solid and aesthetically pleasing 👌
i used android for like 10yrs and thought i hated iphones, till i got one.. They are literally just better and theres no two ways about it
Same... Like we can see the effort of making it repairable... (after the mess on the 11/13)... But still they limit you with serial numbers and their sh*tty prices...
At least this one. This one seems like its easier to replace parts. Time will tell if they make those parts actually available for a reasonable price and if they still software lock them.
@@lyianx You're right. We'll see.
Steve Jobs is very particular on the neat organized arrangement...
when he said "its repairin' time" it was truly one of the "jerry" moments of all the times
it's repairin' time
truly one of the jerry of all time
Loved when he threw the phone outta de windoe and screamed „glass it or leave it“ I almost cried
Nah bro, more like.
When he said it's "SCRATCHING AT LEVEL 6, WITH DEEPER GROOVES AT LEVEL 7" it is the jerryiest moment of all time. It made me feel so emotional, took me back years ago when i first watched his videos. It made me tear, so much.
Loved when he threw the phone out of the window and said „glass it or leave it“ I almost cried
@@MavYT69 i don't think you got the reference of the original comment lol
"More Power than the computers who we used to go to the moon" yeah that's a Massive Understatement, It's like at least 10x more powerful than the fastest Room Sized computers In the late 1960s
The part where he says "it opens up like a book" twice for two different countries is so wholesome and witty! Love it!

This is great but I’ve owned almost every iPhone since the first one in 2007 and haven’t broken a screen yet. Maybe I’m just lucky. A glass screen protector does help. Never had an issue with an iPhone, it’s a good product.
9:32 The entire brains of the phone is about the same size as a finger it's double stacked and has more power than the computer NASA used to go to the moon but all we do nowadays is scroll 15 second of TİKTOK
I haven't heard a sentence has much more logic than this
Sad
I haven't seen the inside of a phone in detail in quite a few years. It's insane, you may as well call it modular, it's damn close.
If only it wasn't software locked and you could just upgrade small parts and keep the phone up te date.
ok
@@DerekSmit iyou your dad is qwee
@@DerekSmit and at this point you can see that they totally could do that if they wanted to. They could design new motherboards to work on older models. Thanks for giving me the idea of future that will never happen
i consider it modular when i can upgrade my cpu and gpu..😁
Thank goodness there are so many kind people who can tell me what an iPhone is and how it works, I’m so grateful as obviously I live in the 19th century and have no idea what technology is.
"The world would be a happy place if every phone had pull tabs" and the one with "Steve Jobs once said screw it........ They left it a memorial" Sound of pull tabs combined with your line made me laugh. Love that man 🤣😂
that pull tab asmr changed me
I like to think that Zach just returns the phones after durability testing them, leaving the manufacturer asking "WHAT DID YOU DO TO THIS PHONE?"
That pull-tabs on the battery scene was hypnotizing af...
"We have to use alcohol to drown the rest of our problem." 😂
I worked at a cell phone repair shop for a while, and I had a ton of charge port repairs, I can't say how many back glass repairs, but we had a lot for sure. It was annoying that I had to pretty much take the entire phone apart to get to the charge port.
I’m always giggling at the thought of how phone companies deal with water resistance.
Like a while ago I assumed there’d be rubber lining across the phone, just like the smaller parts, but all the companies instead went: “let’s just glue the phone together. Let’s REALLY glue them boys down. Oh yeah. Sticky time all around. :)”
Also if apple is kind enough to do something like this easier iPhone repair, I feel like it’s probably because they’re about to screw us over by taking out the charge port or something soon, like the sim.
I would welcome to take out the phone of the iphone. Lets leave the i.
Is it a bad thing that the SIM tray is gone? It is only safer than ever? When your iPhone gets stolen and turned off and the SIM is removed, the chance of tracing and getting it back is 0 to none. All providers in the USA provide E-sim.
@@-bjorn-5465 no. E-sim makes you vulnerable. What if it isn’t supported anymore in your country? For example, in russia, right now is impossible to install an esim.
@@lordium1848 I think there are more major problems in Russia right now than not being able to use an USA iPhone outside of the USA (note that the sim tray is only removed from the USA models)
@@-bjorn-5465 phones retain their IMEI number regardless of SIM, and if you report it stolen, your carrier will add it to the database of phones blocked from activating on most any carrier.

It’s interesting to note though, as long as I’ve been repairing devices, I’ve never come across a faulty lightening port. Usually just filled with dust.
also the reason to not switch to usb c, a female connector with male cable is always more durable and cheaper to replace.
@@NutzerLive breaking is just 1 advantage of lightning compared to usb c which had a lot more advantage.
I don't think anyone would disagree that lightning ports are ridiculously durable. The male end is just a slab of steel. USB micro B and C both have that wafer thin center male contact that's not at all durable.
now hear me out jerry… how about a transparent back glass project on either this phone or the 14 plus? could be super cool since the back glass comes off so easy
Damn, that is going to look sick!
To late, not a new idea. He's done that already in the past
Hey, Apple ASP here. I had an iPhone XR speaker snap in half on me, definitely had balls. Not sure why they'd not include it in the new model.
Yeah. Was gonna say, they’ve been adding speaker dampening for years on other models. My XS Max has them too
6:57 that sound... it's sooo soothing to my audio receptors😊☺️
Outside is the same, but the inside is fully revamped. A huge win for right to repair! Luckily they have coding boards available where you can export and import the OEM part info to a aftermarket one.
But if you swap to the cheaper display it will still be locked by the software?
Every year more than iPhone lauch event I eagerly wait for Zack's teardown of both device and Apple Inc 😅
Screw it moment was the most epic dramatic explaination of situation.
The thing that blows my mind is how a lot of people are finally impressed that the inside is different even though the exterior looks similar to the old phone. Don't people realize that the moment a new/different SoC has to join the circuit that the whole motherboard has to be designed to accommodate the new chip, simply because the final shape looks similar to previous one doesn't mean not work has been done. Or maybe people finally believe their bs when they look at the exterior and say you can hardly spot any difference, that it means there's actually none?
The teardown was an awesome job...but the monolog are always what shines in your videos...Oscar winning to be true...keep talking like you always do 😀
in other tear downs the metal plate behind the front glass is silver... but yours is black, is this to differ between iPhones with a sim tray and without?
thats depend on the frame color of every iphone as the frame and plate is a single piece of sheet.
it matches the color of the phone, with some of the bright lighting for the others it appears silveish at first
@@owenoreilly_20 Ohhhhhhh
0:20. Apple gave me a quote to fix my watch 4, for about $80. When I tapped on the options to actually send it in, it came out to $400. That’s MORE than the actual cost of the watch at this point.
Yes Apple improved repairability, but also added software lockouts after the repair
I’m super happy about the display and back glass being easily replaced, but that charging port is insane lol. It’s a worthy compromise though IMO.
easy replaced yes, but it's still software paired, so you can still expect loss of some functionality even when doing a proper replacement
This guy has a really chilled out voice, i was listening to him as i fell asleep so relaxing 🎶👂❤️😴😍
The problem with the screen replacement is that you should always disconnect the battery first before doing anything to your phone. This means to change the screen you need to open the back aswell to disconnect the battery first
That's interesting
… or you shouldn’t because messing with the screen will not wreck the battery and if the battery is out you cannot tell it you’ve knicked something important or not
@@struckkk1999 if you start touching around the internals with the battery connected you will short circuit it and f the whole thing up
9:07 The speaker does have balls! They're hidden way inside the module, Apple has been doing balls inside speakers ever since the iphone 6s I believe.
💀
Wow! Just like my-
Your tone makes your humor even better. Never thought I'd see a repair video as entertaining as your as with so many followers.
9:26 iBalls 🤣
Hey Jerry, great vid ! also the clear unbox nice is still cool that i bought !
When is the pro tear down and durability coming. Been a while waiting for it.
Apple finally deciding to make the back glass repairable is like me finally doing the chores. Still got a lot left tho..
12:43 Does Zack have OCD? 😆
I am joking... I love this guy!
Possibly there will be no PRO versions tested/reviewed? Since already everybody can get 14pro models. But no test from Jerry.
6:55 That pull tab tho😩😩
I hope Samsung learns from other companies by using Pull Tabs for their batteries instead of Strong annoying adhesives!
No lol watch all of the other teardown video you'll see that samsung just need few drops of isoprophy alcohol and the glue will just removed. While pulltabs sometimes broke and thats it
@@mehshutup3041 “that’s it” what? He used alcohol to remove the broken one
They really as still terrified about exploding batteries now. Surprised they aren't also bolted down with a steel cage.
apple needs to learn from samsungs repairability
@@mehshutup3041 And if the pull tabs break, guess what? A few drops of alcohol. It's also easier to clean off a pull tab than to clean up set glue. Every mm counts and are you going to put your new Samsung battery back in with bits of balled up glue in the tray?
Thats screaching on the metal plate,its like running a car,with worn out brake pads,on the disk. 😂
If only the charge port was more accessible, still nice to see that it's getting better. Just gotta worry about software locks that server no legitimate purpose.
Fairly impressed with apple this year although tech wise its not a major jump it's so nice they finally did a good job on making the phones repairable again after like 6 years, also impressed with the Apple Watch ultra considering its actually durable.
I work for authorized apple repair location and we have a machine specifically used to remove the screen on the iPhone 12/13/14 and also the back glass on the regular iPhone 14.
Nice video, yes make a teardown and durability test for 14 pro too.
Also comparey the flash lights 😊
Hugh Jeffries did a review and tear down of this and the Pro model… and Apple is still sticking to serial number matching to parts in the phone.. so if they are swapped out, the phone restricts functionality. Seems different IOS version though act differently in this regard.
while i do agree with the non genuine part warnings and messages, they shouldn’t brick or remove functionality from the replacement parts.
@@sys-administrator it restrict, some functions are not avaible.
@@sys-administrator what are you talkin about it does restrict some functionality lmao watch again the whole video from hugh jeffries
@@sys-administrator it does restrict functionality, and a lot of features that aren't necessary to be locked as well.
@@sys-administrator I don’t have True Tone anymore after getting a 3rd party screen replacement.
This Change in interior and repairability on apple devices is called RigEverything and exposed !Thanks man
You and Linus are the only people I can watch break expensive electronics, everybody else is bad at it
$169 is still freakin insane for just a back glass replacement, but still way more sensible than before, so it's a step in the right direction haha
When I used to do back glass repairs I would only charge $60. I felt that reasonable. Most of that cost was due to my time. But I wouldn't just change out the broken glass I would replace the entire housing plus the back glass because it was easier. You can buy an entirely new housing with the glass attached to already for around $7-$11.
@@kylefrye4451 great
9:30 Jerry at his best 🤣🤣🤣
8:02 such a hughe box just for one little motor?
Weird how the most exciting part of the 14 for me is the easily replaceable back glass. After spending hours and cutting myself up in the process of replacing the iPhone X glass, this is a welcome change.
@6:55 Yay! I love the magic pulltabs!!!
Imagine your car locking you out for changing the windshield wipers 💀💀
Don't give BMW new ideas 💀
6:55
*pull tab asmr*
Comparing lockout of the components in a computer to the windshield wipers of a car is quite a bit off base. Windshield wipers are wear items, like brake pads, and are made to be replaced by the consumer. Nothing inside an iPhone, or any other pocket computer, is a wear item and made to be consumer replaced every so often. Just not comparable, completely different issues at stake.
Yo Jerry, use double-sided suction cups that grab the front and back. Also, put the phone on a hot plate at 85 degrees celsius to disperse heat evenly. If you must pry, you can use two iSesamos next to each other at the bottom of the phone with 99% isopropyl alcohol or denatured ethanol for more spread-out surface tension so as to not break the screen.
7:17 i repair phones for living and actually... F*ck the pull taps. They tear all the time and it is almost impossible to remove all of them in one piece. Especially on older iPhones. And i didnt even mentioned that you have to (in some models) remove taptic engine and loudspeaker to even make space for the pull taps to pull(otherwise it would just straight tear off)
I like the way Samsung is gluing their batteries. You just need to heat the phone ti around 70°C, use few drops of alcohol and it basically pop out by itself (well almost). Or Huawei have great way to remove battery without damaging it too. And there is even prepared new glue for New battery under the foil.
hear me out: no fucking glue or adhesives
Hey Jerry! I fix phones for a living and could show you how to take those wonderful iPhone Screens off without breaking them without the expensive tools and even suction tools.
We want to do some live tear downs for engineers in our company. What kind of camera and lighting do you use that gives you such a large depth of field in focus and let’s you see small components clearly?
Camera is a gh5 with a speedbooster adapter to fit a sigma 18-35. Lights are from Amazon. Watch my "Nintendo switch joycon drift fix" for a studio tour. Email me with any questions.
You seem to be smiling more in this video, always do smile☺️
Aren’t you supposed to disconnect the battery before pulling any screen off? So to change a screen to be safe you’d still first have to pry the back first? 🤔
otally agree, it's good to see that Apple actually did something to make repairability more easy, thanks for this teardown Zack!

Remember that Iphone 14 has issues whenever you replace any part of the phone it will shown warning signs or malfunction, which makes it hard to repair except official Apple shop.🤔
But the iWorSHEEPers can't accept the truth about their pet mega corporation lmao
I am feeling so calm listening to your voice
I'm actually impressed with Apple this time around. Would it prompt me to get one, nope, but at least I can stop hating on them as much as I do as it seems like some things may be changing for the good. Kudos to them for the pull tabs on the battery tho, just wish Samsung would do the same.
Apple has been using pull tabs for ages. Since the iPhone 5.
You should hate Samsung more than Apple. After knowing how Samsung tries to scam their customers, you should. At least Apple admits wrongdoings while Samsung completely sweeps them under the carpet.
it would definitely prompt me to get one if i had the money right now lol
"Easy to fix" yeah.. psychically perhaps. But as you said, they have a history of preventing user repairs with software lockouts and parts availability (ie not making them available).
Yes! The ios 16 update just "broke" the usability of a LOT of 3rd party screens with a software update - including my own!
If you have an aftermarket screen on an XR or newer and upgrade to iOS16, you're in for a world of hurt with all the ghosting and LCD flashing that starts up
Imma put this out there, I don’t listen to ASMR but I could listen to Jerry for hours on end, he’s got such a soothing voice
I don't think they are going to call it iBall,they might call it dynamic balls😂
