Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra Teardown Disassembly Repair Video Review 

You're welcome!

Yup!

Do ppl actually diy and replace the battery themselves?

@@zo9fg welp, I do

@@zo9fg yes, it's not hard

They listened finally 😂

👍

Until you remember, they make foldables that are pretty much e-waste out the gate as soon as it comes to repairing anything screen-related. Foldable repairs are also hugely wasteful since a replacement comes with a screen attached to the chassis and is doubtful that it will ever be truly recycled. Even so, it's a gamble that during switching the internals, the hinge mechanism will be intact - assuming any damage hasn't already hindered functionality to as to make it useful for a future repair progect - again, also assuming anybody wants to go through the ardious, risky process of trying to repair the screen and frankenstein a new one to an old chassis. How people spend nearly 1k on a flip or, in the case of the fold, close to or above 2k on those things for lesser specs than a s22+ or s23U is beyond me, simply because it folds. Sorry about the tangent, but folding isn't an excuse to cheap out on specs comparable to the price range of their galaxy flagships.

​@@insertnamehere8723te cobran la innovacion tengo un s23 ultta pero probe un zfold 2 y quede encantado sobre todo por tener esa pantalla de 7.6" en tus manos y poder llevarla en el bolsillo es excelente , pero le falta madurar mas sobre todo que el pliegue no se note tanto, porque el que no utilice tanto la fotografia este equipo es ideal para multitarea ademas puedes usar las camaras traseras como selfies y no son tan malas cumplen, mejor dicho es un miniphablet y cuamdo el precio se ponga a la par me pasaria sin dudarlo y eso que ahora llegan los enrollables ya motorola saco un prototipo

​@@insertnamehere8723 if you can't afford foldables it's ok. No need to rant about it.

@@DragonOfTheMortalKombat edgy comment. Come back when you realize what value for money is.

Thank you very much!

Where's the storage located

👍

Are you saying it used to be more difficult with Samsung? (never had one)... I'm watching this video and nothing seems easy to me!!

@@HakunaMatata225 I run my own repair company. Samsungs are infinitely easier and better to work on than all other vendors (except a rare 1 or 2 like FairPhone), especially compared to Apple. Apple in particular being the next most popular mobile company, have what I like to call "Surprise traps", proprietary easily strippable screws and extremely fragile flex cables alongside parts-pairing (majority of the parts can't be replaced without losing phone functionality) when opening. The worst part I'd say about opening a Samsung phone is probably just prying the back glass off and for reference, I've done over 50+ Samsungs and never broken the back glass once, so in my own opinion, I find it easy. As for difficulty, if you've never opened a phone before then chances are that it will be really hard to do with the design of modern phones having liquid resistant adhesive seals and whatnot making it easy to break fragile parts like the back glass I mentioned earlier. If your interested in learning, I'd look at picking up a few cheap and broken phones online that have no value to get started.

Are u sure battery bypass is in s23 series?

@@zo9fg yes

What is a battery bypass and why this is important?

@@abs1207you can directly Power the phone with a cable without charging the battery

👍

Thanks!

You're welcome and thanks. I will have it uploaded probably tomorrow.

If I am able to get my hands on another S22 ultra, I will try n swap the parts to see what works or not. I've been considering doing it but will probably get to it after the next few videos on the rest of the series.

Not really sure if it will work. I put a Pixel 6 Pro Screen on a Pixel 7 (turn on you see the Google logo and a few sec nothing happens) When I did the reverse same thing happened. They might have done the minimum to make sure people can't swap things around. Pixel used the same connector for the 6pro 7pro unlike Apple who radically changes everything from on phone to the other 😂 making sure there's no 13 pro with Dynamic Island out in the wild.

@@PBKreviews Yup no worries. Just a thought for more content and experimentation :)

Thanks! :)

​@@PBKreviews also can you do a teardown of the phone "REDMAGIC 8 Pro"?

Thank you :)

Glad you like them, and you're welcome 👍

Probably tomorrow

@@PBKreviews can't want for this video. Thank you.

Yes can’t wait to see it

@@swdw7 you're welcome

@@Proluisram 👍

True, but at least the replacement screens come with a fingerprint scanner which is already attached and will work without it being locked out like apple etc.

You're welcome

they are exactly the same , you can check his S22 Ultra teardown and compare the two

Thank you :)

Thanks!

Thank you! 😃

Thank you, I appreciate it 👍

Thanks lol yeah will have the S23 teardown up tomorrow

Thanks :)

as long as you use the original pre cut adhesive made for the phone and apply it properly, should retain the resistance.

@@PBKreviews that's great! Thanks.🙂

It turned on but after prying off the shattered screen, it was beyond working condition so yep you can hear sounds but it doesn't show anything.

Yeah, I took a poll and most people didn't like it so I stopped using them from videos after this one. Thanks for the input.

👍

Thanks!

👍

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks 👍. That would be the main mic, but it won't be damaged. both mic and filter are seated above the hole itself.

@@PBKreviews ok, appreciate the response. I feel much better now

@@nutzthomas You're not alone, seems lots of people did the same mistake, including myself...at least now I can sleep better ;-)

@@PBKreviews Is there any risk of breaking any waterproof seal by such accidental poking the mic hole? Or the needle just stops at the plastic frame?

👍

going to do a video on it soon

@@PBKreviews thx really want to know if i cant just swap motherboards or cameras

:) 👍

You're welcome!

hmm not sure, you may be right but that's what I have been told and led to believe by others who are more experienced with the speakers than I am.

@@PBKreviews I am sure after over 25 years of experience. I have corrected others on this too. It is litteraly called sound dampening and not "sound largering" etc for a reason... It dampens resonance👍

Thanks for the support!

👍

You're welcome 👍

You're welcome

👍 yup me too

Thank you and you're welcome 👍

I haven't tried it but it might be possible.

No, that is not an UWB antenna. You can see the UWB antenna on the S22 Ultra disassembly video I did at 7:19 in the video. This S23 Ultra was not a US version so it did not come with mmWave UWB antenna. You can also verify this information by going to ifixit's website and looking at step 20. www.ifixit.com/Guide/Samsung+Galaxy+S22+Ultra+Screen+and+Battery+Assembly+Replacement/155140

@@PBKreviews UWB has nothing to do with mmWave. UWB is for digital keys, mmWave antennas are for 5G. I'm telling you the upper antenna is UWB antenna, ifixit is wrong too.

Oh by UWB I thought you meant the wide band for mmWave antennas. Hmm seems you are correct. So the S23 then does not have UWB from the looks of it, since connecting the S23 wireless charging coil flex to the S23+, it leaves the UWB in settings under NFC grayed out. S23+ and ultra have that additional UWB antenna where as the S23 doesn't. Thanks for clearing it up for me. Wish RU-vid had the option to add new clips to videos to edit instead of just cutting out.

In the case of water damage, you want to disconnect the battery cable as soon as possible and not attempt to use the phone so it won't short the board. You need to basically take it apart, disconnect the battery cable and dry out any liquid or moisture inside. And then brush off any corrosion on chips or connectors with a small brush like a tooth brush, and plug the battery back in to see if you're able to get it to power on. Send me an email to pbkreviews@gmail.com

Yeah people didn't like the transitions so I stopped using them after this video :)

You're welcome :)

yeah, as long as you use the original pre cut adhesive which is sold for the phone or replace it with a new back battery door cover which comes with the adhesive pre installed, then you should retain the water resistance.

It's not hard at all, but if you have no experience, the first time might be. In terms of this phone vs many other ones, this by far is easier :)

You're welcome. Yeah I tend to speak fast and try to slow it down.

Thank you and you're welcome :)

You're welcome!

Thank you!

Thanks, yeah it was the same size no change but forgot to mention it.

Should be able to be pulled out from the frame. Similar to this video at 4:32 in the video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ej0TZ-7RAdA.html&ab_channel=PBKreviews

Not too sure, internally it leads to nothing/no opening from the inside. It might be a channel which is ran through the inside of the frame and to the speaker as an extra tweeter opening but not sure.

Individual cameras can be replaced

They are definitely welcomed. They might not be as good as the Xiaomi pouches but they work and help.

👍

@@PBKreviews 👍🏽. Very minimal changes from the S22 Ultra...looks like we are entering Samsung boring years 🤣

Hi, there is a filter over the speaker itself. As long as it doesn't clog the entire filter, you should be fine.

@PBKreviews the speakers works perfectly fine.no issues at all.

@PBKreviews if I put water on the speakers,will it remove dried up glue or should it be fine since there is a filter?

👍

Thank you :)

👍

👍

😃👍

You could, but would cost you more doing that. Plus not sure if every single part would be available. Some parts like graphite film or pads and filters are difficult to find.

They aren't too difficult from what I remember. If I'm not mistaken, they are pull out ones which can be pulled out of the frame.

👍 :)

You're welcome 👍

International

I haven't done it to this phone, but usually better thermal paste does offer better heat transfer. But also ones which are really good have high conductivity, meaning if they leak or get in contact with other components around it, it can cause a short.

@@PBKreviews Thermal conductivity doesn't mean that paste is electrically conductive, almost all today thermal paste's are not electrically conductive. Liquid metal is.

You're welcome
