Oye

[@kolargol]

LOL!!!! this screen was removed before videos like these crack me up 😂

[@asherramaly2083]

2:45 is NOT the telephoto. It is the main wide angle sensor. That’s why it’s bigger. This year the wide angle (not ultra wide) sensor is on the bottom on only the max I believe. Also you can confirm this by looking at the Apple keynote.

[@lorep7412]

Yes, I tested this while puting a piece if paper on that lens. Left down is the main camera. The problem is, I could not find out how to put the telephoto camera in action. No matter how much I zoomed, the normal camera was used!

[@techytech1907]

Best tear down on KZbin. The comparisons of the components with the 12 pro version really useful.

[@Raid_Of_Lightning]

TNX, please show us how you put aside the components that you've taken apart. It's vital for a beginner

[@ashclark3769]

Wonder if the mm wave cutout makes the frame weaker ?? I’m in Australia so mine doesn’t have it. Great content 👌👌

[@ARXInfinite]

Nah it doesn’t same here in the Uk we don’t have the cutout too

[@smartphonerepairwi775]

Time to stock up on 5G antenna flex cables. Many amateurs will rip this cable 🤣 Your video is very detailed for USA models. Much thanks!

[@dalebassett6119]

😂 I didn't know why I couldn't remove the connector from the side of the old housing now I know why as most new chassis iphone 12 pro max don't come with the 5g antenna connector in place I do wonder why they don't sell many of those chassis with the 5g connector in place

[@heavensphotography]

I have worked with iPhones for 13 years, and from the 12 models it is so hard to open up the screen without crack it or the colored lines apeared and you need a new screen, do you have any good tips? This screen on the video i can garanteed has been removed before.

[@johartocasidar973]

Yeah me too , it is already opened 😂

[@sparke66]

You missed the Wi-Fi Flex Module which is located on the top left region of the housing, obscured by all the black stuff. 06:54 The 5G Antenna to the right side isn't exactly built in, it's held down by some adhesive. You're able to push it out with some small nudges to the top and bottom of the Antenna. Not trying to be judgmental as this video helped me out a lot in what parts I need to get for my iPhone I bought on eBay, but those two are pretty important to fully tearing down the device if someone needs to replace a broken housing

[@IkerBoulala]

Youre a boss man, just changed mine thanks to your comment.

This is so much better than the ridiculous ifixit channel that treats each video like a a sleepover party.

[@Cmarier2]

I can’t tell if you’re unscrewing clock wise OR counter clock wise. So from the beginning for a beginner I’m frustrated.

[@rancillinmontgomery2480]

What’s the name of that sensor you took out right before the LiDAR? I can’t understand.

[@lojairepair]

and about the dock connector?

[@pidgincarcrew7253]

What are the parts next to the bottom speaker

[@Nothemenice]

Amazing work

[@paulbonifacio901]

Do you think those internal components would break or loosen up/shaken up when the phone is dropped? Thanks for the answer.

[@aliceschulze2651]

You don’t show how to remove the coil for the mag chsrge

Video is great. I have one question bottom of iphone 12 pro max have two speaker holes , 6 holes have speaker what about other 4 holes ? Speaker is there or not ?

[@kadaliumeshchandra]

Probably other 4 holes maybe mic for audio during calls & video recording.. Although I never had an I phone.. I'm just android user

[@Intrus76818]

[@charlesgreco6964]

Amazing technology.

[@luciancasian9463]

Where did you get the kit from?

[@georgelake7923]

do you provide the service to fix the motherboard??

[@FleaMcP]

Best teardown on KZbin by far.

[@technewseveryweek8332]

These phones must be pre dissassembled because they look WAY too easy to remove the glue

[@nirzonofficialbd]

Need 13 pro video. please🙏

[@rancillinmontgomery2480]

Building my own pro max 12. Good to know where everything goes and what I still need to buy. The rear camera and oled screen so expensive. Figuring out which screws go where was a challenge in the 6 plus how’s it compare o. The 12pm?

[@itechcarezhao389]

Though fake since previously opened, good for someone just wanna see how the process is, but don’t open like videos shows, you will crack you screen and spend hundreds repairing other.

[@michwashington]

I subscribed because of this video.

[@huaminhkhanh]

7:44 why doesn't my iphone 12 promax have the light sensor cable ? I saw some teardown 12promax video also don't have this cable

[@raymonmontes4212]

Hi

[@NaClSalt]

I replaced the back glass of my iPhone 12 Pro Max and now the phone won't turn on. I kept turning it on every little while to make sure it's still working. Finally, after I finished removing all the glass, checked it one last time, everything was working perfectly fine. Then I turned it off, stuck the new glass on and now phone won't turn on. Please if anyone has any idea why this would happen? Did I press too hard? Did I touch something I wasn't supposed to? Any help would be appreciated. This phone cost me an arm and a leg.

[@p19shelt]

Did the same thing, but apparently, I burned the logic board. Maybe u did the same thing.

[@niallgibbons1120]

Anyone know where I can buy full housing replacement?

[@ventronix]

Ebay

[@geryajah]

Where is the ear speaker located? My 12 pro max have it ear speaker not working, i want to know is it easily replaceable.

[@Fs_007]

How did that happen

[@geryajah]

@@Fs_007 i took it for a swim 🤣. But it working now after i placed it inside plastic bag with a silica gel for couple night.
