    Best deal i ever got was buying an Iphone X 256GB back in 2019 for only $60. Owner said phone didnt power on but just needed a new screen and battery to function. Still have it to this day!

      To all 3 of you - I said this to someone else’s comment but I don’t blame you for not seeing it. I ordered a waterproof seal and it didn’t arrive in time for the video. The seal hasn’t shown up yet but when it does it will be put on the phone.

    You aren't gonna believe me but my best find is a tmobile carrier locked MINT FMI OFF 15 pro max, that I actually found like 5 days before christmas. It was originally icloud locked but I guessed the passcode and turned off fmi.

    getting the display paired without the matching proximity sensor was actually surprising to me! i thought these two were paired thru every single model of iPhone

    • @AppleManiacYT
      @AppleManiacYT  13 днів тому +3

      I was going to mention this in the video but forgot, but with the new parts pairing system, it’s actually the opposite. Instead of the sensor being paired to the phone, it’s paired to the screen. Doesn’t really make any sense tbh.
