    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?

    I'm curious as to what happens if you push the sim key too hard, as I pushed it very hard to the point where there was a small "pop" sensation and the key went a little deeper. The key didn't bend up or anything, but it has me worried that maybe I scraped the seal just enough to break it or something. Like I just want to know if the pop sensation meant anything bad. Plus if the seal is at a 90° angle from the channel why would I even feel that happen? I want to trade this in for a s24 Ultra, but I'm afraid that I won't get the credit if this is actually broken.

Upon putting the backs on both i wanted to see if i could swap the back on the controllers but that didn't work. I put the ribbon cable in and the shell didn't fit so i pulled it out and put the original back in and it didn't work. So the ribbon cables on both suddenly dont wana work anymore. Could it be bending? Could it have been accidentally putting it in the wrong way messing with the pins. Did it just fry the connectors. Please help

    I think they did a nice job on the changes. Lord knows engineering smartphones is not easy work and I thank these people for doing an amazing job. Finally sticking it to the apple snobs 😬😁🤣
