14:33 The battery can be used as a small heat sink. It has a lot of copper inside. Some surface tablets do the same, where one heatpipe from the CPU is connected to a fan and the other one to a big piece of copper on top of the battery. But most likely the metal tape is used for shielding or grounding.

It's not impossible at all! I took a 4 day course a few months ago and already I have repaired probably more than 20 devices and am planning on turning my side business into my full time job. It will take practice and there will still be moments when you mess up, but as long as you are organized and can follow instructions, it's absolutely doable, as long as you get the proper tools. The great thing these days is that most of the time whatever gadget you wish to repair there's already a KZbin video like this one explaining how to open it, so you minimize situations like breaking flex cables like this one which is so short. I say find yourself a cheap old iPhone on eBay (a 6 is probably a good place to start) and start practicing. Once you learn one you can do them all (though you do have to stay updated with the changes between iPhone models).

I feel like google making the fingerprint calibration software publicly available is a great example of what right to repair is really about - we don’t want manufacturers to be forced to build clunky, oversized devices that run at half the speed and can be taken apart entirely by hand, we just want the tools and parts that already exist to be available, and for manufacturers to stop going out of their way to make repair more difficult. If a device happens to be physically difficult to repair as a natural consequence of its design, that’s our problem to solve. But when the manufacturer of any product spends extra time and money for the sole purpose of making repair more difficult, like apple and samsung, that becomes a problem with them.

Actually, in Google's official Pixel repair manual (the one that leaked not long ago), it's written that you should just lift the tab after placing the phone on a heat plate. That's what you're supposed to do, so Hugh did follow the correct instructions. But Google used a stronger adhesive than needed and that tab is garbage. They should've used the classic stretch/pull tabs

@@lui2292 Last Pixel that opened from the rear was the Pixel 4. Since then the 4a, 4a 5G, 5 and 5a have been released and they all open from the front. Google has gained much experience with this manufacturing method and truth be told a easier process for screen replacement is (in my opinion) preferable. The screen is the main part of a smartphone, means a screen less smartphone is near unuseable, while also being easy to break.

@antonliakhovitch8306 2 жыл бұрын
@@syber-space A hopefully more understandable explanation - The fingerprint reader chip stores and authenticates the fingerprints on its own, and then simply gives the main processor the "OK to unlock" signal. This makes it impossible to steal the user's fingerprints by hacking the main processor, since the processor doesn't have access to them. However, now we have this issue where - for example - a hacker could swap in a reader with their own fingerprints stored on it and then unlock your device. In order to prevent this, they need to make it so that only the one specific reader works with your specific CPU, using some fancy cryptography to let the reader prove its identity. Because of this, you HAVE TO run some sort of pairing process when you replace the reader. In theory it should be secure enough to just have the user enter their passcode for this, but I guess it's better to be safe than sorry. Historically, other big changes in the security domain (eg, unlocking the bootloader) have also required memory wipes on Android.

Glad to see Google provide (at least a little bit of) transparency towards repairability of their devices, and skilled people like you who support the Right-to-Repair movement with such dedication.

Awesome. So happy to see that Google has provided the ability to recalibrate the fingerprint sensor. I just got one of these phones as the recommendation from AT&T after telling then that Samsung and Apple were out of the question. I am very impressed with the performance of it and can't complain at all. This allays one of my fears I had.

Not bad, but I wished the battery would have been a little more easier to replace when the time comes. Besides the display, it's basically the only thing the majority of users need to repair in phone's lifetime.

With the plastic piece around the battery for removal, I think you're supposed to hold an end in each hand and work it back & forth like a saw through the adhesive.

Awesome video again as always. I’ve always had confidence in Google Pixels over iPhones which is why I fobbed Apple off years ago with their phones, although I do use iPads. It’s nice to know that Google think of their customers so much that they actually want you to own your phone and be able to fix them yourself. Apple could definitely learn a few things from them.

Very nice that google are that repairable. The thing with the fingerprint is not a soft lock, as it won't work right after a screen replacement, so a recalibration is required to make it work right again.
