[@seanvinsick5271]

Some improvements, use a hub to attach usb ports. The switch for power, sliding it back and forth is going to wear the ports out, so it would be better to switch +5v on the USB line. Modern laptops use an antenna in the screen, not a bad idea by removing the circuit board from the phone and directly mounting it. Also, instead of aluminum, just just pvc. If you want to go all out, put a USBc dock inside.

I love this build! No 3D-printers involved, and that mechanical switch design is genius.

[@oakmen4604]

3d printers can be extremely handy. There's even simple and free CAD software to use. Like tinkercad and sketchup. You can even combine traditional methods and 3d parts to be more efficient and effective. Today, I was replacing a custom fan led with traditional bulbs. Needed an 8mm spacer that took less than a half hour to model and print. I highly suggest learning the 3 steps, Model, Slice, and Print. Depending how inclined you are, it can take a week to a month to learn everything.

Well, the best option (at least for those who have a 3D printer) is to make the housing parts with plastic of the filaments/resins instead of using aluminum because it is cheaper and more practical and obviously you have the artistic freedom to customize whatever you want, resulting in a unique and aesthetically beautiful laptop... or maybe not

Brilliant! You are a true genius. One thing I'd like to add is that you could have placed the phone a little bit higher on the back of the screen.

To be honest, they already are internet devices for the less fortunate of our world, if they even have internet. Where you do think all those used phones people sell or throw away or recycle go? A lot of the electronics recycling companies make a profit by selling the electronic waste to other countries for a profit. And considering they get electronics for cheaper than new, which they can repair and sell in their country, why would they refuse?

[@MrWirelesscaller]

It depends on how old the phone was because it could be considered a security risk for some of the more security required apps (like banking) due to not being able to update android enough to plug security leaks. I like the fact that phones can be unlocked but they really also need to be able to be rooted remove the crapware from the mfg and would allow other options to keep many of these devices to become ewaste (not everyone recycles or sells off their old devices, they simply throw them away) by allowing enthusiastic people to come together as a community to develop an OS that can run on them. Many of these flagship android phones hardware are much better than some of the basic arm chromebooks, it's a shame that they can't be recycled into a diy laptop or chromebook instead.

[@SapioiT]

@@MrWirelesscaller Especially since there could be a kit similar to this one which can be bought ready-made, which one could buy and stick the old phone into, after replacing the operating system with one like LineageOS and Replicant, or after updating to a newer Android version. And depending on the capabilities of the hardware (most important part being the screen, in terms of price), we could get nice smartphone-to-laptop conversion kits, maybe even adding custom cooling for the phone, with the aid of either a thermal pad or lots of thermal paste, or even removing the case and battery from the phone (or replacing the battery with a smaller one, to leave more room for cooling but not shut down if power is cut for a few seconds), and directly cool the other components, especially since there are lots of small and tiny stick-on cooling fins, and funneling the air from a fan into the right places is not difficult nor expensive.

"My car broke, lets make a house"

[@djbare9]

Thank you, I took a tumble and smashed my s20 screen first onto cobblestone, the phone still works but the glass is a mess, I didn't want to throw it out but it was sitting around being unused, until now, great idea!

[@tromzinck]

Really awesome. I would make another solution for the phone. I like the option to mount different phones, but I would make a place to slide it into, so its not that visible. A webcam with microphone would be a must too 🙂 I might also prefer build in speakers, just to enable sound. I know that most people including myself would often use a headset or other bluetooth device... But all in all awesome 😊

[@abhilashvpillai]

Great build , but small improvements would have made it even better : 1. Sticking the phone little higher with the sugru , he can even use the front camera for video calls ! 2. All black design

[@ducc6612]

For the point no. 1 , I was thinking the same.

Hi, I have recently found your channel and I really enjoy your content. I particularly enjoyed watching the wooden case that you made for PS5, and the invisible PC, and monitor. I would like to request that you redo this video but with a wooden case with rounded corners

Although it’s not the most practical thing in the world, it absolutely amazes me how you manage to do these things.

[@HarshalSarnobat]

if you have made those stand thingy at back of screen little upwards side you might have able to use front camera too for the skype and zoom calls and other than that its really nice to see old phone working like that..

"...This phone, with all its cracks, would be difficult to repair.." Me and my phone where you can't touch a single inch of the phone without scratching yourself in a crack: *"yes, continue"*

The phone would have been actually quite easy to repair and would have cost around 30 bucks. But that would ruin a perfectly good video :)=

I love how a DIY laptop made out of a busted smartphone looks far better than a laptop from just a decade ago.

[@noperception5073]

My god this is clever, and you made the case seem surprisingly "easy" for diy-ers to make.

[@mrdetective974]

for the on and off button you can just connect an power button to the power cable and it will cut out the poer instead of slidind the control broad and gluein the power cabe to a spot

[@GeraltOfRivia69]

Why didn't you use a type c port to charge the whole thing,why use a barrel type connector

[@matiakd]

I was thinking the same thing. He hyped up usb c in the begging only to use connector people probably don't have

[@ducttaperulestheworl]

my exact thoughts too since it's a powerbank

[@andrive]

True

[@aniruddhkashyap467]

barrel connectors are easy to mount on this type of frame, and are less prone to breakage, while mounting a micro or type-C USB port on it will be much more complicated and easy to break.

[@NanoMine]

@@aniruddhkashyap467 there are usb type c ports available that are made just for projects like this to be mounted easily on anything.

First i must say, you have the neatest builds on youtube (you ARE awesome), im a massive fan of all your videos and rewatch your videos regularly for inspiration!!!! i love your videos!!! watching this video made me think could you make a old phone into a studio? it has 4 cameras(plus wifi=gopro), with different lenses on and can switch between them, 4 audio ins,internal mic,bluetooth and audio over usb for laverer mics, if any one can do it , its you, because you ARE awesome. thank you for the inspiration!

Make sure you sand down the primer with p400 or p500 so it gives it a smoother surface and add grip for paint so I can't pick or peel off.

Why not make the charging port usb-c? This just seems like adding extra steps for no reason

[@kerodfresenbetgebremedhin1881]

The power bank may not be able to charge that way

[@jingarjay8754]

@@kerodfresenbetgebremedhin1881 Why wouldn't it charge? It's just as simple as changing the barrel jack to a USB C board, the data pins aren't used so those can be left out.

[@user-dp5fq4vc8m]

This is just a way of showing the basic idea, several features can be changed to your liking. He probably didn't have an usb-c charging port on hand. That's also why he often says you "can" and not "you have to".
