as a previous iphone user , i was afraid to degrade my s24 ultras battery but with a 2100rs battery replacement cost , i might use my phone to its fullest potential

[@actuallydrag]

Its pretty pretty reasonable

[@ICHIBAN722]

@actuallydrag good for you. but Im a budget samsung user usin 15k phone and my battery cost is same. you can afford that batery as u could afford that phone. but i cannot

[@visoriof]

Both of them cost the same for battery replacement

This is one of the biggest reason I’m trying to switch back to android

[@MarcSpctr]

​@@pantsu1265 "Trying to switch" lol brother is talking like he lives in US and is dependent on iMessage and Facetime that it is very hard to switch 😂 I had S21, switched to iPhone and now back to S24U. The whole switching process doesn't take more than half an hour. Whatsapp gets easily switched. iCloud and GDrive both offer to download all your data. And then just back it up onto another service.

[@bruhhh69]

Tbh Xiaomi is the best in powerbanks. They've been making powerbanks since years and they make one of the most reliable powerbanks as well. Don't go for cheap brands like boat or something. Powerbanks can be dangerous if you buy a cheap one. Go for a good brand only.

[@amitdubey132]

Go for anker powerbank it is a 25w fast charging power bank it cost about 1500 rs at salr

your logic for calculating the phone's display price is quite accurate. I got display of my y2 changed at Rs.2200, the actual price of the phone is 10k

[@lonewolf2595]

1+: Greenlines...definetly not our responsibility 1+ : Spare parts...pay your next flagship investment here

[@adityajaiswal5871]

1+ is literally giving free display replacement for greenline affected phones

[@Akshayysk]

I have a useless piece of junk called the Oneplus 9 Pro that has a green line issue. However, the Oneplus service center refused to replace the display, even though I offered to pay for it. They informed me that the replacement would cost 27000rs, but then they couldn’t do it because they didn’t have a display in stock for the past six months. The store’s location is JM Road in Pune.

[@amitmanoranjan851]

Similarly my uncle had a 8 pro which was offered free replacement but one month wait and he had to leave in one week's time so they offered 35k voucher so I told him to buy 12r

[@anubhavgoyal04]

@@Akshayysk Same with my brother-in-law. He has 10pro its display is having a green line issue. He went to the customer care Centre in July and they said the display was not in stock. It's December already but the display is still not in stock. It's very unfortunate that consumers have to deal with such problems despite paying premium prices. 😔

[@Indras25]

What people need to know is that companies are purposely making repairs expansive because they want you to instead buy a new phone. Which is why "rights to repair" should be talked about more.

[@iDeepu]

They just made repair also money minting business.

[@sgirisharao]

worst one is realme parts coming to service center from other planet i think even iphone manufacturer parts available with in the country

OnePlus Nord ki display 13000 ki batayi hai mujhe service centre me

[@thekushagrashrivastava]

I've been following your content for quite a while, and I’d love to see a series on “Technical Words Simplified.” Each video could focus on a specific device-like a phone, laptop, or similar-where you explain what to look for when buying them. The focus would be on reading the specs and understanding which ones matter most for making an informed purchase. I truly believe this kind of education is something we all need to better understand those tricky technical terms.

[@DarkKnight00770]

The content which is needed for all smartphone buyers.

[@inspirationalquotes9469]

I feel that iphones are exobarantly charging it's customers. Even OnePlus has very high cost of repairs. I have the first Nord and wanted to change the screen but it costs 13000.

[@manojgail]

My sister gifted her husband OP 10 Pro 2 years back. After few days phone fell in water. It stopped working. They went to service center. They quoted the approx 80% of the Phone price. Mind you that it was not purchased in sale or anything, rather at almost full price close to launch price.

[@rahulxdhankhar]

I just got my display changed for my Nord. Original display extracted from other nord costs between 5-7k and a good condition 2nd hand nord also costs the same. I only got the 3rd party display for 1200 because I'll be putting it on the shelf now and getting a new one soon.

[@pawannagal3118]

Oneplus charge depend on year of release. Like 4 year old device will cost u less, new device more

[@inspirationalquotes9469]

@pawannagal3118 but the service centre told me 13000 including all charges

[@ForecastPlays]

4:24 These repair costs are not Final by Samsung there are also hidden charges 😮 which add later like addition of GST, No. Of Parts used, labour, Even glue used etc. I know I went thrugh same. There is a different page on repair costs except for non GST added costs of individual parts. Please check those out too. My galaxy F41 had Amoled screens which I hot around 16k and when i went for screen replacement estimate was 12k😮🤯🤯 Samsung 🤌🤌 better provide actual cost on site (with gst, labour, glue etc.)

[@InfiGem]

Hate to say this but bro, you got scammed.

@InfiGem you think I was that dumb, Nah I got a good quality lcd instead for Rs.2000 and free screen protector included.

This video is very relevant and useful in current situation where repairs are no longer just post sales service, but has become an active business strategy. Great work team techwiser. 👏🏻

[@shamalsham]

Samsung charge additional charge like labour and gst etc, so the price usually seen in the site are not correct for my s20fe the site it shows 7k around but with including all charge the service center says it will cost around 9.5k.

[@AbhijitBiswasDBZ]

@shamalsham everyone charges those extra things Edit: I replaced screen last year at 8600 approx

[@venkateshkanna9169]

Then also it's cheaper than the compitition

[@Vshashank]

Every brand charges labour and GST, so common for all.

[@harshdeeprangra9378]

You are doing soooo good dude 👏🏻

i agree, purchased a nord 2 at 30k , broke display in 3 months , it costed me 9k (all tax,service charge including)

[@pr1nce9632]

[@soumyasaha8665]

iPhone is pricey, but they replace it, not repair it. But yes, it still should be cheaper.

[@Kamal-rk3mq]

One perspective which I want to share is across these companies you selected - how many phones come for repairs across these categories - that would have been a good perspective to think about- since when we go to a Apple service center we see less people than when you visit a Samsung one

[@Bharatkewatia]

You should have also included Google pixel smartphone's repair cost

[@knoxytranger7147]

You should also ask the repair cost for camera component. Like its also a key thing, a glass crack or the stablization on OIS could break sometimes.

[@anujagrawal9131]

Man, thanks for making this video. This is super important considering that the cost of flagships have reached the sky and quality of materials being used is not improving so for a typical 5yrs utilization of device there would be atleast 1 battery change required and with greenline issue maybe even a display change.. God forbid if motherboard breaks then that is the worst scenario.

[@nidhin916]

I think now we don't need more reviews and stuff, people know what they want, it's these kinds of videos that the public needs, awesome job, I will say we need more such videos for phone of all categories

Really appreciate videos like this. Very consumer friendly and completely changes the perspective of purchase decision from upfront cost to total cost of ownership

[@ForecastPlays]

3:24 Battery replacement are slightly overpriced but wait for EU user replaceable battery laws❤ Government should make rules to extend warranty on motherboards, network receivers and other internals. If Premium devices were as good as the manufacturers advertise then they better give warranties on diffrent parts accordingly like; 4 years for motherboards, 3 years for charging ports, buttons, microphone and speakers. They also should provide defects agaisnt water damaged fir 2 years if the device has Ip68 rating. If in future I somehow become politician these rules will be my priority.😊

[@Happy_gaming-]

Well I found that Samsung makes display for oneplus and Apple so technically your paying both Samsung and your phone brand to replace your display. But this still doesn't explain how their motherboard cost so much. Source: Google

[@anubhavgoyal04]

@@Happy_gaming- the problem with apple is, other companies change single part whereas apple changes whole inside of the phone apart from display and frame. That's why they are very expensive. They even change whole phone in some case. But they should do something about that. Not every one can afford such expensive repairs.

[@Happy_gaming-]

@anubhavgoyal04 well its still there fault not to provide proper repair services

[@anubhavgoyal04]

@@Happy_gaming- indeed. In other countries like usa, canada, eu and more. They have this campaign called self repair program, in which you can order parts and tools and repair your own phone. Which is cheaper. But nothing like that in india 😂. I own full apple eco system and i can confidently say there customer care service is worst 😂. Even though they have outsourced it, but it is still sh*t.

@@Happy_gaming- my brother's macbook pro touchbar got some issue. So we went to centre they said they send the laptop to bangalore for diagnosis which will take 7 days, above that if there is liquid damage the repair will be on customer end with logistics cost of 2500 and if there is manufacturing defect apple will incur the cost. So no liquid damage was found and apple repaired the laptop which cost 45k for tiny part because to replace touchbar they change whole bottom panel. Only motherboard is old, rest everything is new like bottom panel, keyboard, battery and everything that is attached to it 😂😂

[@PushpakBhoge-dx3hc]

What I have noticed over my phones is that does not matter if it's Samsung or sony or pixel as soon as soon as you break a major component like display. just change the phone even if you repaired it, not going to be same as before and it will be defective again. So just skip it overall repair put it to exchange get new one be done with it. This has been my experience with xperiaZR, galaxy J7, realme 2 pro and pixel 7 (pixel repair is also quite reasonable took only 8k)

Because s24 is the latest version so more stocks will be available for repair whereas s21 fe is somewhat old and finding parts for repair is difficult hence expensive
