$150 BROKEN Xbox Series X - Long Version

$150 BROKEN Xbox Series X - Long Version - This poor Xbox is quite beat up and broken, with dents everywhere and even the fan completely broken out of place. Will we have to replace all the parts or can we salvage some? Also, what do YOU think might've happened to this Xbox?

Steve, Would really love to see a tour of your shop/repair area and your storage/organization for all your parts and components, someday. So many saved consoles and electronics, and you usually have something to fix each one.

[@JimNichols]

I am crushed as there was no angelic singing and starshine as the 'perfect amount of thermal paste' was applied.

[@user-xy1ze2jn8s]

Yes! I knew something was missing!

[@jeffcyr2182]

I’m thinking there was an angry spouse and a hammer involved here .

[@abhishekroy7722]

Just hammer? I think something more powerful was used

[@alexruiz1264]

Someone messed around and found out

[@KAPTKipper]

I like to think there's a big screen TV somewhere that got it from this Xbox.

[@Foreversystemofadown]

Myman

[@RollingRoadEFI]

@@abhishekroy7722 How weak are you that you can't do that damage with a hammer? lol

[@notesysnook]

Steve, I just now realized that you have a channel that is 'TronicsFix Longs'... I was going to your original channel looking for all the long versions but to no avail! Glad my pea sized brain figured it out!! Keep up the good work and hope your treatments are going well... can't wait to see you in a 100% clean bill of health!

[@TronicsFixLongs]

Lol, glad you figured this out. Treatments are going well. One more to go!

[@matheusgaldino6657]

Regards from Brazil. Glad you're doing fine and almost cured!

[@Olavo__14]

brazil mentioned!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@TronicsFixLongs]

Thank you!

[@madmikegaming88]

Love your videos Steve!!

[@mightygoodgaming2219]

Great video steve. Glad your doing better man. Keeping you in our prayers for a speedy recovery

[@Sapien356]

Nice fix. Great stuff. As always.

[@todormiroleskov8663]

Niiiice. Initially I thought this can't be saved. Good thing you have replacement parts laying around. Amazing repair. :)

[@TronicsFixLongs]

Yeah, it's nice to have a bunch of spare parts for these.

[@Spartangaming2526]

Good repair video as always ❤

[@TronicsFixLongs]

Thanks!

[@Bufferoverload.]

Great Job Steve.

[@user-hk3es9tq8d]

i do enjoy these long videos good work on repairing that xbox

[@TronicsFixLongs]

Thanks! Glad you enjoy them

[@Muppy2k]

Looks like what I used to see at Cash Generators. Crackheads would break into a house, throw a mattress out first and then throw valuables onto mattress. Sometimes they would bounce off and smash on concrete

[@RollingRoadEFI]

Diversity is your strength lol

[@Craider79]

I've fixed heatsinks which have looked worse than that one. It's actually possible to get back to "close to original" - as long as nothing is "punctured".

[@TattooDallas]

I watch your videos when I go to sleep so I can wake up with all the fixing knowledge

[@seanmacdude]

Great to see you giving these consoles a second life

[@derBurakTTV]

Love yaaa! Hope you’re doing fine!

[@robindickinson5376]

Another great video. Really enjoying this longer format. Cheers and I'm praying for you.

[@TronicsFixLongs]

Much appreciated!

[@danielpowers5891]

Is the chemo over with? I don't keep up to date on it but I keep hoping you get through it asap.

[@Larissa-le7dk]

I got happy when i saw he had hair

[@AJComputerServicesUK]

I suspect that the design of the XBOX Series X will have protected the Main Boards to some extent except for some of the Ports of course, That definitely seems like one Angry Significant other or someone seriously lost their rag while playing a Game! Cool Video though Steve! 🙂🇬🇧

[@davewatson2018]

I'd really would love to hear the love story behind that Xbox 😅

[@yak-machining]

What?

[@matthijsvandeweerd1415]

20:30 no sound effect, so obviously it shouldn't work!

[@danielhulan3058]

@TronicsFix Longs Steve we really need to start coordinating the release of your videos to coincide with my lunch. That way I'm not getting in trouble for watching your videos when I'm supposed to be working lol😂. Really though, I hope things are going well. We're behind ya man!

[@TronicsFixLongs]

Lol, I'll try to do better at uploading at a time that's more convenient for you.

[@thiago4santos]

I hope the owner of this console is alright.

[@sharpie6136]

I'm going with a bad report card and the Mother went crazy on the XBox lol . . .I had my doubt you would fix this one but the master proved me wrong congrats on the fix

[@fatalerror---]

The intro for the damage & continued laughter says everything before you start. You rock & thank you for attempting to fix what most toss away unfortunately. 🕵️🥰 One of three channels I get notifications for. 🙃🤑🫶😂

[@sherosheer497]

You are legend 💪

[@chrislewandoski3383]

Admirable attempt to fix this, but the spare parts are gonna cost more than a whole new unit. Personally, with all that effort, it would be a good candidate for putting in a crazy case or doing something off the wall with it.

[@williamharris8367]

Are new spare parts readily available? Not everyone has a collection of non-working hardware to salvage.

[@samanthagriffinv2.08]

0:40 usually you can press the eject button and that’ll power it up like you pressed the normal power button (if it’s a working functional Xbox)

[@angelusuk909]

Did you forget to put the black band around the inners of the xbox when you put it back together in the new case?

[@TronicsFixLongs]

Originally, yes, but I did go back an put it on

[@leonhantz6383]

Looks like one owned by Tango Gameworks employee...

[@ike-2357]

definitely a result from some unfortunate gamer who came under the ire of their spouse's rage. i have seen worse but damn, that is painful to the EYES. i hope you recover soon!

[@blizzardjesus]

Mine occasionally crashes, but only while playing Halo Infinite or Apex online on big maps. Re did thermal paste, but it still happens on occasion. Almost curious if a ram chip is flakey.

[@lopesco]

What happened to the “perfect amount of thermal paste” special effects?!?!? I miss that!!

[@ajaks7636]

Awesome! 😁

[@cosmos8569]

That machine took a beating from Mike Tyson 😂😂😂

[@SithLordAnakin]

Or Robin Givens

[@kwikdrop00]

With all the bad news on xbox sides no wonder someone threw his console

[@brucepreston3927]

It took some force to do that kind of damage! It looked like someone dropped it down a couple flights of stairs or something...

[@willfultrain6779]

I've never thought about asking, but are those just giant slabs of aluminum they smash between the pcb's?

[@TronicsFixLongs]

Pretty much

[@myplaystation5]

Congratulations

[@mark4d148]

These new shaped footballs eh? So if you replace all the parts, is it the same console? The ship of Theseus conundrum, mmmmmm!

[@98ek9]

Bruce (Phoenix), your consoles fixed!

[@joseph0808]

“Its me or the ps5” xbox remix

[@luisparedez5867]

u´r the best

[@obi-wan-cod-obi6692]

you should get hold of some retro micro computers like a zx spectrum or comador 64

[@thetribble]

Nice job Steve. I hope you are doing well. One question; why do Americans say "sarder" when it is pronounced "solder" as in sole der?

[@joseph0808]

The bent heat sink isnt going to have an effect

[@Chewligan1]

I think dad bounced this X box off his son's head.

[@SithLordAnakin]

Console abuse should be a felony.

[@FixationwithCarnage]

holy shit. lol someones crazy ass S.O definitely took a few whacks at that one.

[@Joreg_Catapang]

Definitely some parents got angry and use the hammer Or Gamer rage

It seems like that XBox got the angry girlfriend/spouse treatment!!

Is Xbox in Iran allowed?

@@yak-machining it's allowed but very expensive....

That user must have been sick-minded to get deeply involved in a game just to realize he lost it and started smashing the poor console!

[@retromario6130]

I have issues with my PS3 slim. It won’t load GTA 5; the HDD just shuts down. Every other game loads perfectly, even large games. I also replaced the HDD and the console still shuts down the HD. I don’t know what else it could be

[@chickenfreak1206]

Is it a Orginal downloaded game or a copie ?

"You need to add a good amount of flux or soldering is not going to work". Never used any flux in my life.

[@KngKurd]

Guaranteed to work way better with flux then without, it’s going to be a cold solder joint without the flux

[@Hollander040]

I never did too, but when I start using it, I thought to myself I had to start earlier doing so..

[@dodgydruid]

Hehe I was thinking someone chucked it into Trump's mouth whilst he was ranting on about something, bit like a breeze block inside a washing machine and it got tore all up... :P Now I could have been really risque and said that thundercloud bird he is fighting against sat on it and same thing happened but thought to keep the banter above the equator...

[@Smokie_666]

The first theory makes sense, since the system seemed to hit or be hit by something very dense.

[@kopono]

Bro you basically had to replace 80% of the whole thing 😂😂😂, poor Xbox

[@juliovindell264]

no I think some one actually punched this with there fist when he lost at at COD on line

[@Foreversystemofadown]

So where's the concrete xbox video

[@alfwaibel4773]

Looks like rage quit on steroids.

[@evilborg]

someone had a bad day.........

6:46 dude you tried to put in a COD game *of course it's not gonna work*

This makes me sad poor xbox somebody really got angry. lol 😂

This Xbox may have not been destroyed by a significant other so much as Phil Spencer over the latest sales figures. AMIRITE?!?!

[@wiwingmargahayu6831]

wow

[@hapticgaming]

I Feel that you've paid too much for that console in that condition

[@nickblack2006]

Yeaaa im with you braghhh a working mother board $150 and his spare parts from his shop shakabraghhhh

[@killshock360]

wasnt this the xbox that got returned for a bad hdmi and didnt have an x calmp.... pretty sure i see that x clamp.

[@michaels8237]

Is it just me, or did it seem like he was unusually sloppy with his soldering. Dont mean this with any hate. He is better than me at it.

Wait this is old

[@jumper55ful]

might as as well recycle it and buy a new one lol

[@alanholt6535]

Someone rage quit?

[@fraggit]

With all this recycling you do, you put Greta Thunberg to shame. Love and prayers from the Isle of Man, me old china.

[@vegan939]

I wish fixing the electronics was actually fixing, rather than just replacing with other parts. It would have been neat to see you fix the power supply, or the disc drive, or the heatsink.

[@Samdecker23]

Do you know the tolerances of the metal of a heatsink and the disc drive was bent as, maybe veganism has made your brain wet.

[@Hollander040]

He fixes plenty of motherboards with hdmi or power issues.. what more do you want? The diskdrives are boards are married, not much to fix on.. especially when these are bent.. check out his other videos :)

[@NathanielD05]

Often times when repairing things its actually just replacing. I get what you mean, but that’s just how it is unfortunately

[@ventrue6516]

Unfunny KZbinr who tried to get fame by breaking the Xbox, like 99% of them does that. That's my theory.

[@Portuguese-linguica]

Why does this seem as a rip off channel ? I swear ive already seen this on his other channel.

[@DarrensToychannel]

This is the longer version of the video

[@nickblack2006]

Durrp

[@TronicsFixLongs]

Yeah, all the videos here are on my other channel but on this channel we leave a lot more of the footage in for those that want to see more of it.

[@Paul-ik8fm]

RAGE QUIT

[@AP101083]

Why pay 150 dollars lol... this is worth 50 dollars... you really overpaid for this one... i understand that you do it for the video... but normally 150 is way to much for that condition!

[@Samuel-eo1pj]

Nobody is selling a Xbox series x for 50 bucks even if it's broken

[@gower1973]

So basically you paid $150 for a motherboard and had to replace everything else, the replacement parts probably cost more.

[@nickblack2006]

All thoese parts are spares as he has a repair shop, would you prefer he throw it in the bin ?

[@Samdecker23]

How the surgery to fix to your Habsburg jaw ?

[@instahawk8422]

He doesn’t know the story more like he doesn’t want to talk about it and what led to the console ending up how it did
