$300 iPhone 8 Restoration - Full of dirt! 

Wow. I just realized that this man gets to restore iPhones, Build a massive collection, and make money by filming what he likes to do. That’s an awesome job.

Apple: We'll make iPhones in such a way that they can't be repaired. Hugh: Hold my beer.

Yes, it's 4am No, I don't have an iPhone Yes, I watched this whole video No, I can't sleep

“Very difficult to do, it took me 10-15 minutes” Wow it will take me 3 years 😂

You got 256GB instead of 64GB? Send it back. It was a scam.

Wow. Dude you should work on a Nintendo Switch. I don’t know how hard those are to repair but man you can do magic

Hugh: It's really hard to remove the back glass. Jerry: Hold my pry tool.

Me: oh shit , the temper glass broke.. it's the end of my phone This man: oKay , this whole phone is ruined BUT...this is not the end..

IOS 10.3.3 for the iPhone 5s just got signed by Apple. UPDATE: The SHSH blobs are empty and therefore don't work!

It is great feeling when you decide to fix your own device by yourself. As you said, most people will see all those screws and just give up, but in general it is not so hard. I have disassembled more than 150-200 laptops so far. I successfully performed all kinds of parts replacements, including cleaning and replacement of thermal past and I never came across some issue that I could not fix. Having required tools for the job is most important which is not expensive to have. Also keeping track of every step is very important so that it does not happen that you assemble the unit and you find out that you forgot to attach a webcam flat cable or fan to the motherboard... I'm using old fashion notepad and I create sketches of every stage during the disassembling and later I follow all steps in reverse

Hey Jeffrey. I repaired my own phone for the first time, thanks to your videos. You’ve saved me 200€! Cheers man.

When he said „its actually not too difficult“ I almost spit my beer.

It’s amazing how people can neglect their devices. Thank you Hugh for restoring such a marvel of technology!

Love how he talking like a tutorial like we are going to do it like come on you lost me at 0:05

Your repair video outcomes are truly magnificent.

Thanks Hugh I used this video when I did this repair the other night took me a few hours but I managed to completely replace everything with only breaking the silent switch on the side. In the end it was a win ended up with a completely restored iPhone 8

okey, a 256gigs iphone 8 for $300? nice

6:17 THANK YOU for showing us how you disassembled the phone! Nobody shows the part of where everything goes once the phone is taken apart

Zacks long lost brother 😂

the way he repairs each and every smartphone he gets his hands on... just magic...

It was really satisfying experience to watch this restore, you have awesome precision and patience bro

If it were me, by the time i finished my repair i would be richer by many extra screws and strange-looking-not-fitting-anywhere parts

Watching your iPhone 12 tear down recently along with your old iPhone tear down videos, seeing you warn your audience from “anti” repair to you finally seeing the anti repair process was interesting because they finally did it, especially given how much they make in services

It’s very impressive! It looks so easy but it’s also is so complicated.

Android user, not a fan of Apple. But love watching your vids, quite interesting to see the mechanics to it.

the red back and black front looks better than the one with the white front. Edit: I know that the red iPhone 7 only came with a white front and the red iPhone 8 only came with a black front. I was referring to the design of the phones. Black on red on any phone looks better than white on red.

And I thought it was hard to unscrew ONE screw DANGET!

why have i binged a bunch of episodes??? i have no idea but im hooked

That's amazing! If you start an iPhone repair company, I'll definitely send my broken phone to you!!!!

Def red and and black display on iPhone 8...I have the iPhone 8 Plus Product Red myself and I love this phone!! Great vid btw and you have a new sub!!!

One of my few favourite RU-vid channels. Great content, great creator.

love the red and black Hugh, works very well

Hey Hugh what a great channel you have so interesting especially for people like myself who can only wish was able to to something with modern gadgets. I love the outcome to smashed apple gadgets. Great 👍🏻 thank you for sharing.

Wow. Great job Hugh. That black on red looks very sharp!!!

Your voice is so calm in this video.

Wow Awesome restoration 👌 Red black looks stunning 👍

yesss ive been looking forward to this video! ;)

Great job! I’m so glad that you put in all this effort not only in the repairs of the device but in the quality of your video too. Keep it up! ✌️ I prefer the aluminium red but it’d be better with a black display.

great job hugh!

I know your not going to see this but you inspired me to start working on phones and yesterday I did my first housing swap with an iphone xr and I have to say I would have never fixed phones or would have thought it was possible without you.

That was so satisfying to watch. Great job. :)

Apple: We will make it so that no one can repair our phones. Hugh: Hold my screwdriver

Why am I so refreshed while fixing that iPhone?😌 the way he explained every parts he connects, it seems very easy.

Red &white looks much better. Really informative videos. Well done HUGH. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK

Welcome to another video of RU-vid recommending me something I like

This is stressful and satisfying

Watching your repairs is so addictive! Great narration as always!

Hi Hugh thank you so much for your great video

It’s 1 am I can’t fall asleep Came to watch Hugh Jeffreys videos😭

You make it look too easy. And I gotta give you a lot of kudos for calling Apple out for making products that by and large cannot be repaired at home, usually resulting in more e-waste and yet another inevitable Apple purchase for some hapless civilian. There is so much talk of waste, and Apple positions themselves as sort of an eco-conscious, liberal company. Yet, look at how much they contribute to waste!

Im exactly 23 mins from Frankston! Im knew to the channel and Im enjoying it.

Your videos are very soothing.. keep it up brother!

My mum got a Project Red iPhone 8 & managed to drop it. Luckily, it only dinged a corner. And I’m glad I’m not the only one who applies rear protectors to their phones.

Where do you put all the repaired phones? What if you start a website and sale them ;-)

NICE WORK MAN KEEP GOING

God I love your Repaire videos. Perfect thing to watch before bed. Knowing technology is looked after. So many broken stuff out there and left aside 😭

That guy you got this iPhone is mad 256 gb iPhone writes 64gb

I’ve been waiting this at 5 o clock and it it wasn’t uploaded. But I still love you hugh :)

Great job again like always

Best tech channel ever seen😻

Watching this actually gives me more of an appreciation for the price these new phones sell for. Thats a lot of fiddly work and tech.

Love your video bro and your very smart likewise 💯

I love ur vids 😍😍 keep it up!!

The Red and White option is really nice 👍 wow awesome video

Amazing video - the skill level to make the phone new again is insane. And the production quality deserves a mention. Also insane are the prices of Apple products. I can pick up a brand new Pocophone F1 128GB for approx AUD 400 where I live.

Hey Hugh I got a iPhone 8 plus for 110! It needs a new screen, rear end and a home button! Wish me luck!

Your content is very entertaining and educational💆🏾‍♂️💯

He is a genius. He buys a ip8 for 300$, fixes it for under 100$ totaling 400$. The he uploads this video and gets almost 2 million views. Makes the money back, and keeps the iphone.

You should start a iPhone repair company

That thing looks brand new when you finished repairing it. I cant even tell that the phone was broken before. Good job! And I have a question. What do you do with the iPhones when you finish repairing them? Display them on a shelf?

OMG red and black is sooo fancy!😍

2:07 Has Fucked Up. The Third Party Who Repaired This Has Fucked Up So Hard.

customers: oh it sure is great that my current iPhone doesn't have glass on both the front and back and has an amazing headphone jack! apple:its free real estate

I wish you lived next to me so you could repair my phone 😂😂😂😭😭😭😭

I really love your work sir

i really like the red and black design!!

Hugh: *Repairs Iphone 8* Apple: Call FBI please Apple worker: k *Calls FBI* Hugh: Oh ow

THIS is very very Nice work Is beautiful iPhone Black and Red ♥️ White and Red is scary 😖

If it wasn’t for this channel my iPad would be dead rn lol 😂 I had to replace the glue on screen 2 times and also bend the housing back into place thank u so much I love these videos so much

I love your channel m8 ❤❤❤

Why is there 4,272 notifications on youtube lol 12:50 look closely

I really love your videos tbh!! Well explained and good angle of the camera.. P.S. i love fixingthings what course should i get??

Dude you got mad talent

Red and black looks so clean

How did you manage to get that charging port bracket to glue in to the chassis? Currently restoring my iP8+ and honestly the quality of these chassis is underwhelming.. terrible screw threads, missing brackets pretty much all throughout... Actually was so fun watching this video as I was going through the literal same issues as you where; infinite amounts of screws, super strong battery adhesive, intricate button brackets, extremely annoying hidden screws... Great video, the quality of these has improved so much throughout the last few months!

Hi buddy.. as always you refurbished this iPhone very well keep it up.👌👌👍 This iphone was very dirty, you removed lot of dirt from it. Still i saw some dirt on the motherboard near those metal shields. Next time just use isopropyl alcohol 99% you will find. This alcohol will not damage your board but will clean it thoroughly. If this dirt and dust remains inside it will again in future create corrosion there.

These videos taught me how to fix my own iPhones, it’s awesome what he does.

Hugh: restores phone JRE: gimme those screwdrivers.

Can't wait for the winner of the green 6S tomorrow.

Red and black looks awesome..

you are the real Apple Genius

You should sell these phones if not already cause you do an amazing job

In the us a lot of bubble wrap is enclosed in an envelope. Its one piece basically a padded envelope. Interesting how its weird to you lol

You are my hero!

Thanks Huge Ffreys

Hey Hugh! Could u do a iPhone screen buying guide? :)

This is Crazy , if i opened all that i wouldn’t have remembered what goes where it would only go in bin , you have really good brain

Nice to see another person called Hugh

Red & Black... It looks dope...
