iPhone 15 Pro Exposed - This Will Harm The Environment - Teardown And Repair Assessment

Sir. Jerry rig was the first to disassemble the iphone 15.

I hope the EU regulates the shit out of these predatory tech companies. USB-C is a win for the people but more needs to be done

How many chinese babies died from toxicity in the waters from Apple making these?

When I went to an Apple store to arrange a repair, I found the “genius” so patronising that I didn’t leave the item with them. If there’s no third party repair possible, buying Apple seems like a very bad bargain indeed.

You exaggerate! Somehow you used low quality screw replacement and the phone continued to worked well. What’s this fuss all about?!?

Given the development lifecycle of these things (Which is probably longer than the year we conned-sumers see between iPhone releases) it'll be interesting to see how repairable the 15S (Or 16, or 15,2 or whatever they call it) will be to verify the quality of Apples greenwashing. Part of me wonders if the „Repairability“ aspect might take a while to filter down to design and production? 😇

Love that you are self taught, much respect, new subscriber and will be back for more.

Question: Are there any features lost when swapping the back glass? Is 3rd party repair companies able to purchase the rear housings either first or after market when they become available and swap them without swapping the NFC, Charging Coil, Magnets and rear flash to keep the serials paired?v

error: unauthorized adhesive used.

I was informed that back glass, because of charge coil is matched also.

Typical apple bs.

The need to have apple remotely allow hardware indicates a backdoor for law enforcement and other white supremacist organizations.

Apple have always veen Icrap. And are living on old tec in nice packed. And the only one that chanced a standard so them self earn more money, and the costumer is always the loser.

We’re “environmentally friendly”. Biggest scam ever

Now break it in half.

what if you install a different color back glass!

Apple... Rotten to the core!

Still rather have an iPhone than anything android.

This is weird. I've seen teardowns of multiple of these, And some of the boards have a 5g antenna wire Soddered to the board.

They will make it modular looking to make look like it's repairable but will keep those software locks and serialization of parts to prevent anyone but them from repairing them. It's all a visual stunt to make them look environment friendly but it's all a smokescreen. Just like their support for that bill.

There just isn't anything left of what drew me to Apple in the first place.

Tim Cook’s billion dollar salary must be protected at all costs

This is beyond corrupt

Welp. They lied. Again. And they're going to get away with it unless ten thousand news centers call them out and urge them to fix it.

And you’re surprised it’s just like last year. It’s the same every year yet. You still upload a video for likes and views.

Fuck Apple

Did The wireless charger work after board swap?

are you seriously giving yourself a pat on the back because you can take apart a phone?

It takes over an hour and a half to fully charge, crazy.

Environment? How does it hurt the environment?

So if the back panel is replaced by either genuine or 3rd party part will the wireless charging work and the flash or are they also software programmed

How much memory is available?

Somebody already made a video doing this

"You are using an NON-GENUINE SCREW! phone will explode if dropped"

Poor Apple being bullied for trying to make honest money! Don't you see giving people the right to repair means they can't afford a second pool in their mansion!? How can you be so cruel?

If this happens, then why does Apple care so much because of the environmental?

Awe man, no discount on ifixit for us in the EU?

Thanks Hugh!

16 screws to hold the charging harness? Really apple?
And on top of that you still need those two dumbass pentalobe ones.

"All same except the frame" is plain wrong! USB-C is not faster per se.
Swapping causing errors is not a problem, it's a feature! I wonder when you will learn this? To explain the feature: I don't want my iPhone to be stolen to then be used as replacement parts by anyone.

Just stop and think how pathetic the higher up people are in a lot of companies, just imagine if they put a quarter of this effort into actually making a quality product but unfortunately there are too many idiots that will buy it

I prefer my 14 plus their is no need to upgrade

I will never believe Apple is pro Right to Repair until they fully remove ALL the serial number based software locks on ALL of their devices.

Did I miss the part that harms the environment? Was it the whole thing? The lack of repairability in general? Can someone point me to a timestamp where he specifically states what he means in his video title???

the entire iphone is wrecked, its a no go for repairs, just make sure you dont break your iphone this time around

Apple is only a little less rotten now.

Our long awaited dream will come true when EU battery policy applied in next few years.

Need to fix the back glass on my iPhone 14 pro but it’s so expensive
