We’ve Never Fixed a Phone Before!

[@UsernameUser]

I’ve been fixing phones for a couple years now, and seeing one of the most popular tech KZbinrs fix phones just made my day

[@UsernameUser]

If I’m correct my first screen repair only took about an hour Seeing these guys do it with basically no instructions that they could see is pretty impressive

[@singular9]

Most phone fixing places I go to turn away most customers because it's a liability to repair people's products and they'd rather you buy the warranty so they could cover it with insurance and scrap it rather than fix it.

[@UsernameUser]

@@singular9 Most places that fix phones seems pretty sketchy. I just fixed devices from home. Fixing devices with parts that are trustable are a better option.

[@UsernameUser]

@@singular9 pro tip, fix devices on your own and buy the products on your own. It more trustable

[@ellisrovin]

I’ve repaired lots of electronics but never a phone before! Hopefully my years of accidentally breaking things gave Mariah an edge!

[@ur.kenpal]

Love how Ellis is just a chaos gremlin and Andrew is in full tech assist mode. All those years in tech support came through✌️

[@aleks-33]

Omg haha he was in tech support? He was so patient

[@Cabenah]

Well well well we appreciate Zach’s work now more than ever lol doing it so effortlessly

[@RafCole]

Wanna see his reaction to this video 😂

[@robdevlin2111]

Easily one of my favorite videos yet on this channel. “We’ve got Cholula” about murdered me. Likewise “Is the phone off?” “No…” But my favorite line is absolutely “OH! Swag…!” So much fun to watch. Thanks for this one…!

[@breakfast-burrito]

“Oh swag” took me out at the knees ☠️☠️

[@io4439]

"Is the phone off?" "Nooo" 🤣

[@YanookiOfficial]

Not gonna lie, Ellis might actually be a very good addition to your team cause he fulfils a niche of jokes that people like myself and I'm sure others find funny + Marques if your reading this man thank you so much for always bringing out high quality content you really inspire me to always make the best youtube videos possible, keep it up!

[@newyearbetterdays]

That's so true man Ellis really does have a selective sense of humour that is a great addition to the team

[@spreadinglove648]

Bro, Marques has been the King of Tech for years now, also man just checked out your channel keep up the great content man

[@Woodshadow]

I enjoy him. I always wanted to be that funny guy but it always screwed with my relationships trying to always be on and say funny stuff

A good activity as a team and overall a good experiment. Nice work guys!

[@MikeAbili]

Always enjoy seeing Mariah in a video. Definitely showcases that the studio isn't just all men.

[@kateatkins8778]

Pretty surprised that it might be an unpopular opinion (judging by this comments section) but i love Ellis's addition to the team. Don't know why but his jokes and replicas just hit something in me, definitely can relate) Cool guy, and love the overall dynamic inside the teams as always

[@tavasoli]

Yeah, he's awesome

[@ostynhyss]

I’m not seeing any Ellis hate? We love Ellis

[@davidfc7136]

Ellis and Mariah are both really great additions to the team!

[@BrianWithanM]

Oh you were being sarcastic lol

[@TedIsHere2]

Ellis the 🐐

[@ghostlinkmario]

I really loved both teams, but i would kill to see David trying to fix a broken phone too.

[@everythingresearchgabriel2289]

Oh yeah!

[@Jer_Mar]

It’s always fun watching people try this. I did this for a living & taught people to do it too

[@Manganellia1]

New found respect for repair people!

[@UserNameNiemand]

Did the same to my old iPhone 8 plus, replaced battery, screen adhesive and the head speaker that been sounding awful after all of those years. The experience to do it myself is unmatchable! Now I love my old phone even more) not even thinking to buy a new one. The ability to fix things that you own one-ups the value of it to yourself.

[@jacobscharmberg7133]

Wow love seeing you folks getting your hands dirty in the repair movement! Also mad props for those repairs. Those are not easy and pulling them off this well the first time is pretty remarkable.

[@allentastic]

This is fantastic. I’d love to see this kind of content with basically any other piece of tech

[@unlaikable]

Ellis hard carries The Studio channel 😂

[@chimerezeiwuoha8090]

Elis is such a great guy. The guy can literally say anything and have me rolling on the floor in laughter 😂

[@vladibarraza]

The audio of this video was perfect. Levels, EQ, everything!

[@forzaflash]

Both teams were amazing, I think it's a tie tbh. Although I like the chaotic sibling energy of Ellis and Mariah It truly is about the friends made along the way 😂

[@hopecharity6612]

I love the old versus the new. Marques and Andrew are a seasoned team. Mariah and Ellis are the new edition...and they were under the circumstances formidable!

[@NathanZ1555]

I've been fixing phones for some time now and you guys did awesome for the first time!

[@ASiddig]

18:20, I love how the studio channel producer is just chilling in the background 😂

[@chrismalone3091]

Great video- I think that many people are just too intimidated by what seems like a complex process when, in reality, they are perfectly capable. Would have liked to see a quick sidebar on right to repair and the larger sustainability issues around repair vs. buying new.

[@tabraizhassan665]

Such a fun video, loved it! 😍❤️ Need more videos like this in future but with different team members! 👀 Mariah and Ellis definitely aced this one! 💪

[@V_K_A_FHD]

I now officially have great respect for Zach!

[@benshearin8514]

I just got my first ifixit kit last night and I love it! Super high quality! Also, first like ;)

[@NunoSalvaterra]

[@777VIV]

This is so refreshing to watch loll great chemistry between everyone too

[@TMinusRecords]

Really great video! Maybe if you do something like this again it would be more fun if both teams were doing it in the same room. Feels more competitive and although there would be "cheating", that would also be more fun to watch

[@jimmyadaro]

Mariah is grrrreat, love her energy! ❤🎉

[@nikitagm5015]

A few months ago I fixed my Huawei Mate 20 Pro simply because I didn't want just to throw it away and had spent nearly £1000 when I bought it around the release date here in the UK. Changed the funny bottom speaker, which was integrated into the charging port, the back panel and the battery. I also fitted a new display which I got cheap from AliExpress, 3 times cheaper than the original display, unfortunately it came without the underscreen fingerprint reader so I managed to transfer the reader from the old display onto the new one successfully. I didn't use iFixit repair kit and still managed to get it fixed like new. I'm surprised that you tech guys have never fixed any phones yourselves 😂 The video is fun to watch and well done to all of you, the whole team. Keep up the good work and I as a massive fan to all your channels would be happy to see more competitive and fun videos like this one. Greetings from London, UK. 👏🏻

[@VictorLubega]

Well, great work to both of the teams you guys did well in repairing those phones

[@Mor_timer]

Ellis is such a vibe... he has a Gen-Z kind of energy that I totally resonate with😂😂😂❤

[@KidMonkii]

Idk how to spell her name but she’s awesome. Mariah and Ellis had me laughing. He’s right, it’s about the journey but she has a point… boy we trynna fix a phone 😂

[@StenHassler]

as someone who worked at the genius bar and repair iPhone for the past 6 years this was super entertaining! The 13 Pro adhesive really is a pain for sure!

[@the_ehiane]

This was a very helpful ad! Was able to get my tool kit even though the discount code didn’t work. Thanks guys !!

[@georgeraividian]

It was really nice seeing more of the team having a good time! They all seems like cool and fun people.

[@franzalex]

I have been using Sony Xperia phones exclusively for the last twelve or so years. Since we don't have authorised fix shops here in Ghana, I've been pretty much fixing my phones myself for just about that long. Cracked glass back panels (I hate them glass backs! Plastic FTW), screens, charge connectors, batteries, I have done all that. I must admit that with all these years of 'experience', I know my way around the internals of phones to get many replacement jobs done in an hour tops without first reading the instructions, and about 20 to 30 mins if I read the instructions beforehand.

[@douglasalves201]

To be fair I'm a little dessapointed nobody mentioned "like a little Lego" when popping out the ribbon cables connections hahahaha

[@theleftperson]

18:25 is that coffin for the old broken screens?

[@ktomcruz]

This is honestly a good team building activity.

[@CrispPapa]

Elis and his chaotic good was awesome! Super fun video

[@olivermcintosh8281]

This is so much fun. I’ve done this on older models and it’s cool

[@TylerFernandes94]

I've fixed a couple of my own devices and computers a few times using iFixit and their website, and they literally deserve so much praise. Awesome awesome awesome business.

[@thecheesegod7]

Mariah and Eilis are the perfect comedy pair!!!!

[@JetBlackRJT]

Great job with the outro. It's like I was watching the man himself. That was a really fun video too, something different to spice things up. 10/10

[@Bharat_Maru]

[@Franco-yo6vn]

I'm a Civil Engineer, with no experience with tech hardware, but I have fixed many phones since the iphone4, replaced many iPad screens and batteries since the iPad 2, and a couple of Macbooks thanks to Ifixit. Their Guides are perfect.

[@marvellousakomire2432]

I expected Macques to be soooo good at this, it's reassuring to see he's a newbie like everyone else. Good one guys

[@everythingresearchgabriel2289]

Fun clip, i think i would love fixing my own phone now! 19:10 about what Mariah said, is true. When i used to repair my phones i've had in the past, they used to be lagy and slow for some reason. YES, it was third party repair. So today for instance, i have a iPhone 12 and the back glas is broken (yes, i rock without a case, why in the would would you make your phone bulky) but i'll stick with it till it probobly dies🏎Ride or Die

[@everythingresearchgabriel2289]

No guys, i don't have 2 phones or more. Just one haha but speaking about all others i had in the past! 😅

[@LaloRuelas05]

This was a really good video. It was not what I expected, which is probably why I like it so much.

[@Manganellia1]

@@Manganellia1 Yeah! Just your tone of voice combined with gestures made it very nice to watch. Reminded me a lot of how Marques does it.

[@eager_ly]

"do we have any isopropyl?" "We've got cholula" 😂😂

[@justinbergmans36]

Asurion next to me are superb at fixing phones. And they are certified. They made my fold like new. So, it’s probably the rare case of bad fixes getting into the press. But, I think majority results will be great.

[@ztechrepairs]

It's kind of tough when I hear people say oh I've heard horror stories about repair shops this coming from a reputable repair shop. And that's the key you have two read reviews before you take it to any repair shop. Too often people will take their phone to the most local guy who says they can fix phones and then they get screwed over. Read reviews people please

[@Diablo22967]

Yeah but sometimes it's the "Reputed ones that also screw you over." A great repair shop opened in my area and wanted to replace my entire charging port, but when I took it to a guy who does it for cheap, he literally said all it needed was a cleaning, 2 hours and I hand my phone back, fully capable of charging at high speeds

[@vesves_4]
