Short version:It's back! This time with all the right footage:)
Long version: I uploaded this video yesterday, but had to remove it and reupload it today, because it was missing a bunch of footage of everything I was doing on my workbench. It's a long story, but I made a mistake when I rendered out the final video, which I didn't catch until some of you guys with sharp eyes noticed I was looking up at an overhead camera but that you weren't seeing any footage from it, and mentioned it in the comments. So thank you for the heads up! It's fixed now, and I watched through the whole thing to make sure this version is what we intended you to see. Thanks for your patience, and sorry if you were in the middle of watching when I took it down yesterday, or got a notification and then couldn't watch it. I just really wanted to make sure you could see the full version we worked so hard on.
Ohh makes sense
Strange Parts thanks for the explanation! Thought youtube had screwed it up!
good i dont have to watch it again. i dont need to see i would never attempt this.
I was wondering the whole time why you where looking up to the over head cam but not show it xD
at least wasn't demonetized

As a chinese, there is 2-brands considered as the best non-original batterys, one is PISEN, other is SCUD.
Also it provides replace services for free in most chinese cities , costing no more than $15.
I agree these 2 brands for normal rechargeable batteries especially PISEN (there is a similar brand name sold out of China, not sure if they are related), but not sure about their phone batteries.
how are u able to use youtube? its blocked
@@Oscar-lf9xc Surely most of chinese can't break the blocked, but there are many software to unblocking, such as VPN/Shadowsocks/V2ray. Government doesn't want you see YT/FB etc but they have no enough capacity to find all you out. SO， as long as you didn't challenge the bottom line，government wouldn't ask your trouble. That's why so many Mainland Chinese use youtube ,besides 3-5 people had went jial for providing VPN that letting bunch of people in China broke the blocked .
OMG! I had no idea China didn’t allow their citizens/residents use YT and FB. That’s just absurd.
Alex Coelho As a Chinese, I would say the block is reasonable in a way.
Needs to check if batteries from the Shenzen markets are trustworthy or not.
*Buys battery tester from Shenzen market.*
My thoughts exactly! 😂
very good point ^^
Matt Rodrigues I saw a tester on Ali Baba which could turn the name of Not original or copy to Original
@@jshaw4757 I believe that the battery tester is made by one of the battery assemblers/manufactures/suppliers. Guess what such a thing would do when it detects a battery that it detects as its own brand. Also note that even at the best of times, the battery tester has to believe the battery monitor on/in the battery. If the battery monitor in the battery is faked/hacked, then it can report any fantasy value and this tester can not disprove it without at least one power cycle.
Beacuse they do this things ...
iFixit is possibly the best sponsor for this channel. Congrats!
I was thinking the same

Proceeds to spend over $200 on batteries and equipment.
This vid is sponsored, so its kinda covered up.
The point for him isn’t to make it cost effective, it’s to show us how to find it.
If he would have spend 49 there would be no video for us;)
Geeks Life...
Give a man a battery he can fix his phone once. Teach a man to replace his battery, he can ifixit for life. Or something like that.
Scotty you are an Electronic hero !!!!! I found you by change over here...and now I don't miss any. As an Electronic Engineer I find very exciting all your projects....I like to repair a lot of things at home, always. When I was a child I wondered how the things worked out always. Now everything flows so quickly that we can't stop learning. Your videos help us to learn a lot....and most of all that we always can do it !!!! So after reparing my HTC ONE 3 times, HTC M9 once, now I ordered to Ifix the batterry to repair my girlfriend Iphone7 so I've a new challenge ahead. Thanks for your videos they are just simply excelents. Regards from Argentina - SouthAmerica!!!!!!
Great seeing you again Scotty. Looks like the Vaca put a spring in your step! Short weekend breaks make burnout less likley. Always take time for YOU! Your the only one you get & there are no extra lives in the game of Life!.
Have a great day. Thanks for another great video!
As you can open iphones at any time, why don't you make a removable back/removable battery mod to it? It would be really cool

Yes please!!!!
this is a great idea actually, mayde apply this to the strange parts iphone?
@@uyhu24 This would be great!
That would be sweet. Throwing another vote in on this. Who knows, it could even inspire the local shops.
I actually used an iFixit kit recently to replace a battery in my MacBook Pro. It's one of those with the glued in battery. Took about an hour to do it, but it wasn't difficult. In the kit iFixit included an adhesive remover (some solvent in a bottle) and it made quick work of the glue. The battery they provided has been great, works just as good as the original Apple one did before it degraded. This was the first time I'd bought any parts from them and I was pleasantly surprised. I'll probably do more stuff myself in future.
Their Pro Tech Toolkit is totally overpriced, as you can find most of the tools at the same or greater quality elsewhere, however I ended up purchasing it anyways, knowing it would definitely be of good quality, plus it was all packaged nicely together, and I have to say, the extra $30 or so was worth it in my opinion. I really like the quality of products iFixit puts out and their work to make everything easy and well documented.
I love how everyone looks at you in the intro!
I don't even own or like apple brand but i do enjoy watching you're videos on the tec aspect on the phones and customisation. Keep it up👌🏼👍🏼
Thanks..

To properly test the battery:
1. Do a full discharge test to measyre exact capacity.
2. Do a resistance test by measurig voltage drop with known load.
Only then you can get some real data.
Yeah, voltage drop-off is what determines the useful life of mobile batteries.
I bet that old '85% capacity' battery only delivered a sufficient stable voltage for a short period of time.
That's why I was confused as to why some of these batteries have a 0 cycle count. If it's legit from the factory then there would be at least 1 test cycle. If it's showing 0 then someone is trying to deceive you.
lostunsunghero Or factories don't count their initial test cycle when specifying their warranty at some hundreds of cycles.
i dont wanna act smart(cuz iam not a diehard tech Gaijin ), but when you watch closely again, he knows that, he even talks about multiple discharges and charges to really test those bats.
I don’t know what you said but it sounds smart and I agree with big brain lol no props man I got the concept and I mean my elementary school English served me right I’m getting what I couldn’t in co text of it all just wanted to say thanks for teaching me something new
I love your channel and your're huge inspiration for me, keep up the good work!
14:21 From watching a lot of fixing videos by Hugh Jeffery, he always remove the haptic engine before removing the adhesives.
Ultimate Gamer Makes it easier but for people who don’t know it makes it riskier too
As someone who works in a cellphone repair shop and replaces batteries every single day, I see no reason to remove the taptic engine. It's saves me maybe a minute or 2 and that's only if the pull tabs break. If they don't break, I can have a battery repair done in about 3 minutes flat.
Another pro tip. Keep the phone laying flat on its back on the table while pulling the tabs. If the tabs break douse that phone in isopropyl alcohol, and then just pluck that battery right out. Also these things don't explode. The worst that can happen is that you really stab the crab out of it and it spurts flames for about a second, you say "oh shit!" and throw it on the kitchen floor.
CalamityBaird agreed,

@@Achilleaa and the firmware don’t have the necessary drivers
Unfortunately any information can be written in the control board. Only a charging cycle can tell the real number
Agreed. The battery needs to be entirely discharged and then slowly recharged using a bench power supply or something. Only then will we really know the capacitance of the actual cells.
@@deeeeeds This kind of comment is what I really what to read. Thank you.
So essentially does this mean the NOHON 2265mah battery, or even a 3100mah battery that I found on Aliexpress are fake, although the battery tester showed the NOHON battery is 2265mAh? What will be their real mAh capacity then?

Didn't he give it away?
Maybe he doesnt want to break it and keep it as it is idk
I think it’s his project phone he does all his mods on using it as a daily phone just isn’t practical if you plan on modifying it but don’t know what mod comes next..
I think he doesn't want to damage (Probably) the only iphone 7 with a headphone jack in the world.
Man I'm fond of your vlogs .... Like i get to know many of the unknowns
this is now my favourite channel :)
Hey just a little tip, pull the battery adhesive at an angle side to side and it won’t tear
Sauce Boss 420 best tip is to take out taptic engine which reduces angle you pull it out at and means it won't ever tear
Both of you are wrong, what causes it to tear is if it happens to peel back the wrap on the battery. Using your techniques can help to mitigate that, but neither is foolproof.
Actually no, if you use your fingers to do it and actually stretch it like a normal 3m strip its fine.
@@willgrabham confirmed after me removed tons of them :) additionally - guide white strip to the edge of the iPhone
Alcohol and heat if it has trouble tearing, also you can use a pair of straight tip tweezers to curl and pull the adhesive easier
12:50 The battery level of 50% is to reduce wear on the battery as it wears faster when kept near 100% or 0%
That's correct 😉 and dont let your phone battery to drop below 20% it will last longer
Kind of surprised someone with as much knowledge about these sorts of things as he, didn't already know that. That's information that I've had phone manuals tell me.
The "battery level" is different from how much it's charged. You can see the actual charge percent inside the battery icon on the right of the screen.
@@mongohands Ah ok, I see now. What could battery level indicate though?
@@RandomVideoGuy-qy8fu Not sure the technical terminology but it basically shows battery health. You can find the number in ios settings. Anything below 80% is bad and below 70 is almost useless. Not sure why some batteries had 50%. Prob something to do with off brand batteries not being read correctly.

I thought you would check before connecting a new battery, whether resetting the amount of charging cycles will help to extend the time of work on an old battery. That would be interesting.
I wish we could’ve seen resetting the original battery to 0 cycles and seeing what the iPhone battery health reads. That would’ve been really neat. Maybe a future video!
IFIXIT is probably the most appropriate sponsor for this channel, glad the two of you are working together!

21:58 the best part of the video... I'm dying !!!
An ad are you kidding 😂
it's not just about strange gadgets, it's about artistic. every time i watch this guy's shenzhen videos, i feel like watching some kind of backdoor market scene in sci-fi movies.
Thank you for the video, it was really interesting. Something I would have liked to know would have been how the tester reported your phone's battery when compared with what the Battery Health item of the settings app of the phone before removing it (i.e. the percentage 'maximum capacity'). Conversely, I'd like to know if the new battery was reporting as 100%. Just small points, but I'd have been interested.
Love the videos man!
The part doesn't need to be genuine, just high quality. Sometimes genuine parts are cheaper sometimes the high-quality knock-off is cheaper. Just so that it works.
50% is the ”storage charge” for lithium batteries.
I prefer a "store brand battery" anytime over an "original battery" with dubious origin. Apple does not sell loose batteries, so at best, you got a stolen good. At worst, it is counter fit and no one knows where they cut corners.
@@sarowie If the price is right, who cares if a phone battery is stolen? Get out of here lol
@@aw9389 what he's saying is getting a stolen completely legitimate battery is the best case, but the worst case you get a really shit made replica the ends up exploding in your phone, and you wont know which it is unless you buy one of these battery testers.

Love the process being shown to understand the battery’s life cycle a lot better!
I would highly recommend that if you’re taking off the battery from the devices that you pull the strips to the left and right side, respectively. You’ll notice the bottom black bar of the battery is what causes tension for the strips to break. When you pull to the sides and use that same spaghetti method to pull, then you won’t need to cause any unintended damage to parts, PSA, or cowlings!
Love learning from your channel!
Thanks for the Share Scotty! PROPS!✌
As someone who replaces a lot of battarys I always remove the taptec engine this helps the pulling on those tabs much better and almost always come out in one go.

Thats how easy and cheap a battery replacment could be! But it would be even better if we could just hot swap them as we used to!
EDIT Yes you could & still can *hot* swap them even if "cold swapping" was more common; that said i would take both over a 1mm thinner phone!
no because battery are dangerous,its was meant for expert to handle it not user...thats why they make it harder to change,also for safety factor...modern battery has bigger capacity thus more dangerous
You are supposed to keep lithium batteries away from heat so I don't think a hot swap would work, maybe a moderate or cold swap would be better.
Hot swapping is impossible on a phone. You can't replace it whilst keeping the phone online. You're using that term wrong.
@@kennyj7627 you could have some kind of secondary small battery inside that just powers it for a minute or so, so you could hotswap the full size battery.
@@justalilbitnerdy that's not what hot swapping means......
Never seen any of your videos but have to say I really enjoyed this. Well done
Bruhhhh I died when she scrubbed the Apple logo off 😆 that's such a big brain move
I’ve been rewatching your videos lately, so entertaining, you should redo these things with the new technology we have today haha, think you can?
I installed a Nohon battery (with bigger capacity) in my iPhone 5S a couple months ago, so far it is working perfectly. It also lasts more than when the phone was new. It would be nice if you did a review of the battery you installed in half a year or so.
how many months ago to be exact? in the philippines we have a counterpart of nohon, which is called "Remax" and im skeptic of the side effects of the higher capacity to the phone itself, will it short some components or break some power related components in the motherboard?
No. It's a higher capacity not a higher voltage. The amount of power drawn doesn't increase, the amount of time that power can be drawn does. The only danger is if it expands leaks or explodes lol
@@Champagnepipa Like 2 months, the first thing I noticed is that it lasts a lot more at 0% and 100%. The other percentages behave similar like with the old one.
I would have liked to hear how the Nohon battery actually performed IN the phone over the first week in terms of both standby and screen on time?
@@markbennett6658 Yes, that would be nice also, I could do a test when I have time. The cycle count of my battery is still only 15 and coconutbattery says it still has more than 100% of its designed capacity (1707mAh/1700mAh). I doubt the difference would be very big.
Scotty if you can, could you make a video on how to choose a safe third party/no-name USB type-C cable that won’t fry your devices? Great video by the way!
We know videos like this is not possible during this pandemic, but actually we are missing "this" Strange Parts😢😢.....Expecting to come back soon☺
Thank you brother it's really helpful
Your video always satisfying, hope next year i can visit you in Shenzhen :p
Your battery tests are flawed, as you depend on whatever is flashed onto the battery management IC inside the battery.
You probably just purchased a scammer's tool of choice which allows you to reset the battery count or write whatever you want, when you connect it to the PC I would guess you can even write whatever capacity you want which won't be corrected by that IC until you will take measurements during full charge/discharge cycle.
So to do it correctly you probably have to let it fully charge and then discharge few times and then see what the discharge capacity is.
You can do that pretty much with a much cheaper tools like some of the universal Li-xx chargers for RC models(imax b6) or those 18650 cell liitokala chargers but then you need to make some kind of adapter.
"scammer's choice of tool"
Yes please, do a proper capacity testing by charging/discharging each battery multiple times!
yea we need to see charge/discharge cycle results
i agree with you,and monitore the temperature during the charge, to see the resistence
He mentioned that you could overwrite IC values on the battery in the video when he first plugged a battery in the tester around the 8:30 mark. So he was kind of letting the viewers know buying batteries like this was at their own risk since you could make an aging battery seem brand new. It would be nice to get an update on actual tested capacity, but I'm not holding my breath.
What I've learned from pulling on the battery tabs if you don't want to stretch them, you want to roll them. They don't like to be pulled super far, so if you keep them closer to the battery and you roll them around your tweezers they won't break.
I don't have any iPhones (or plans to buy one), but I really enjoy these informative videos.
Hey Scotty I’m curious as to what Apple says your battery health is in settings after installing the Max battery?
Timmy Martinez it says „Service“ and shows nothing. The only bad point of this Nohon Batterys are if your Batter Percentage drops to 1% the iPhone get laggy till its drawn to 0% but having more Capacity is really good…
It probably shows the same I think the iOS updates determine battery health
You dont know how to test the battery test them with a proper load constant current load on different ranges of current and monitor them.
plot a graph over time and then calculate the actual energy in the battery.
IC in the flex of batteries can lie.
why don't you do it?
One year and a half ago I changed the battery on my Xiaomi mi9 with a battery from ifixit. After one year it was completely dead, so in august I bought and installed a nohon battery with higher capacity and at the moment is working great!
Thanks for the video some fantastic information.
Gotta love, how Scotty started speaking Chinese. Respect.
This was fun to watch! I worked in phone repair for about 4 years and batteries were always a big struggle to source. In this ex-repair tech's opinion after replacing thousands of batteries, here's my rule of thumb: Only get the absolute best you can find. Everything else is a waste of your time and money.
Aftermarket batteries have two main points of failure: aftermarket gas gauges and aftermarket cells. The cells can be of varying quality when not original and so their performance may be inconsistent. But the gas gauges is where it really falls apart. The OEM batteries Apple uses have electronics made by Texas instruments and they are very high quality. They manage all sorts of stuff from how fast is the battery allowed to charge based on its cells temperature, to what its current charge state is, and even relaying to the phones SOC what it's health is to know how much power can be drawn reliably at any given time. Aftermarket electronics likely do not do this or "fake" various statistics and as such you see things like inflated batteries or short life prematurely. If you want, it can be a fun experiment to remove the tape covering the electronics on the battery and examine them under a microscope to see who's truly original and who's a copy.
I cannot emphasize how important those electronics are for longevity and consistent performance of batteries. Lastly, what I saw time and time again from all sorts of vendors (domestic and international) was that on phones more than one generation old a sizeable amount of batteries were pulled from old phones, had their manufacture dates scrubbed, and their gas gauge smart stats reset.
Thanks for the good information.

I've been watching a couple of videos which they say that in the newest iPhones you can replace the batteries but you still getting a message about health battery issues
Taptic Engine should be removed first
Why
Gamer Buddy it’s a joke about Ifixit
Yup - it has a sharp edge and forces you to pull the strip up at an angle which makes tearing more likely. Worth removing the Taptic Engine.
Especially on iphone 6 and 6s where you only need to remove two screws and lift it. It takes 15 seconds and you save 2 minutes trying to pry the battery.
Great video on my birthday!
Im a huge fan of yours
Bad birthday!BAD
Руслан thank you!
the adhesive is easier to get out if you carefully use a plastic ifixit spudger to wrap the adhesive around it once before pulling at a low angle. also try removing the taptic engine first. if all else fails, disconnect the battery from the board and soak around the battery with isopropyl, then scoop under it with a plastic card, no heat needed.
Wow. I'm actually impressed with your Chinese speaking skills. It's actually understandable, even with the strong accent.
Don't know about fake/original batteries for iPhone, I'm an Android guy myself but first I'd like to thank you for a very informative video. I can see a lot of hard work going into it.
Second could you please post a link to the battery tester you bought? It seems like a gadget I would like to have in my tool box.
Thank you again, you have a new subscriber here

awesome video! I was wondering where in Shenzhen you were to purchase the battery? Thank you
I really enjoy your shows you are one bright person who knows his way around China. You bought a laptop from a store that looked like a Apple store. May I ask what was the store name and how good are there computers etc.
