Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra Teardown Disassembly Repair Video Review 

For anyone who is worried about the S24 Ultra speaker mesh filter, you can check my X/Twitter post with pictures of the mesh filter. Some people were worried about the mesh filter looking damaged when holding a flash light into the opening of the bottom speaker in the frame. It's not damaged and its just "domed" or in a dome shape fitted into the speaker opening in the frame of the phone. x.com/PBKreviews/status/1753223290913423458?s=20

Wow. The size of vapor chamber is really big. Awesome.

You seriously don't get the support needed for this kind of high quality videos , keep going ❤🙌

What a small motherboard it is amazing 🤯

I just Pre-ordered mine... coming from a S10 it will be a nice upgrade.. It's incredible how much tech is built into these phones.

Here are some tips from a Samsung certified tech. More even heat is best. Never sit in one spot as that will burn the paint or OLED panel. The frame can take a good amount of heat. If it doesn't come out easy, wait and apply more heat. Patience is an absolute requirement. No point in rushing. We use a heating pad set to 80°C or around 180°F. Never use metal to remove PCB components from the frame, that always poses a risk to damage. Always use a black disassembly stick to remove those components and disconnecting the cables. On some Samsung phones, they have arrows, lines, or squares for places to put the stick for removing the cables to not knock off surface components. The bottom speaker and top speaker have removal points indicated by an arrow. You can use blunt metal tweezers for added support. Removing the front camera can be difficult. Samsung recommends using a SIM tool remover when removing the glue. Just make sure to not bend towards the camera as that can separate the lens and sensor. I use sharp pointed tweezers for grip. Go slow. If you accidentally touch the cameras, no worries. Take a cotton swab with a tiny amount of 99% isopropyl alcohol and gently swirl around the affected area. Removing the display from the frame is near impossible not to break. Out of the 300+ S23 Ultra displays removed, not a single one came clean. Even for in-warranty repairs using their heating/disassembly machine. Under the screen, there are 3 adhesive parts. The outer, inner island, and bottom. The inner island will give the most trouble. As before even heat for long periods for good results. When removing the adhesive from the back glass, get it heated and grab and pull. Ball up the adhesive and dab the residue off. This also works on the frame.

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:15 🔧 *SIM tray removal is the initial step, followed by applying heat to loosen adhesive on the back plate.* 01:28 📸 *Glass camera lens covers are replaceable without disassembling the phone by applying heat.* 03:04 🔩 *Mainboard components include front-facing camera, speaker assembly, and various Flex cables.* 04:32 📷 *Main board features multiple cameras with optical image stabilization and a multi-layer design.* 06:02 🔋 *Battery removal involves using a pull pouch; vapor chamber aids in heat transfer.* 07:56 🎙️ *Subboard houses the primary mic, charger port, Sim reader, and the S Pen.* 08:39 📱 *Removing the screen involves applying heat and using a pry tool, but cracked screens pose higher risks.* 10:48 🔄 *Back of the screen shows the ultrasonic fingerprint scanner and cutouts for the proximity sensor and front-facing camera.* 11:15 🔥 *Design changes in the vapor chamber compared to the Galaxy S23 Ultra.* 12:23 🛠️ *Volume keys and power button replacement involves pulling out a metal bracket and peeling off the flex cable.* 12:44 🎤 *Microphones and filters are positioned safely above the ejector tool hole; repairability score is 9/10.* Made with HARPA AI

As a tech lover who loves repairing my own tech, I am happy Samsung made the S24 ultra the most repairable phone I ever seen. The phone is mostly modular so you can replace the USB-C connector or the sim card reader easily. As someone who knows how hard it is to safely remove iPhone batteries, I am happy the battery on the S24U is very easily to replace. Great job Samsung. Great video PBK.

Wow. Always the first teardown video in the world. Thanks for your videos ❤.

Wow, I really appreciate the author sacrificing his phone to unlock the S24U. This is an incredible thing! I am really touched. Great, thanks again to the author!👍

You definitely deserve more subscribers man! Great job I like your videos somuch!

Thank you. Was looking for this. Here you got a subscription for the high quality videos.

It's amazing having seen the genesis of transistor electronics from the 50's all the way to now. In the 60's as a kid I used to take almost everything apart. (Broke a fair share of stuff). Thank overseas for making things as tiny as possible, and getting smaller and smaller. I always appreciate someone showing how to do these procedures correctly. I miss the days when you could unscrew the back vs. using a heat gun or hairdryer to pry things open.

Good to see that the phone is repairable without major issues, well done sir.

Thanks for the exclusive as always! I hope the next one is the S24+!

You've always been my hero when it comes to phone disassembly and problem solving at my mobile phone repair workshop

Good to see someone is ready to make a teardown video ASAP while everyone else takes their sweet time. Great video!

شكرا.ً شكرا.ً جزيلاً لك لقد بذلت جهداً كبيراً وعرفنا ما يحتويه الجهاز من الداخل❤❤❤❤❤❤

Excellent teardown!!! thank you so much for this video

Great video as always! looks like Samsung made some minor improvements to the inner component layout and heat distribution.

you actually get it done before Jerry, legend!

Very well done component teardown :) Thank you so much!

You are absolutely crazy ! I love to see the inside of the phone I just ordered. I hope you will be able to put all parts back together.

Наконец-то!!! Я ждал этого видео больше чем презенции Galaxy Unpacked 😅 Спасибо за подробную информацию, но мне не хватило сведений о вибромоторчике.

PBK.. Is a genius person

Thanks so much for great video! Amazing job!👍👍

Great video! saving this for years down the line when i need to change out the charger port or the battery from normal wear

Glad to know I didn't tear the microphone seal with my sim ejector tool. Thanks for considering those little details.

Great video, also thank you for explaining the components.

When you pulled out the multi layered circuit board i was amazed! I never watch teardowns of phones until i got my s24 ultra because its so light and powerful!

Great to know that the battery isn't so difficult to remove and replace. For anyone that still wants to keep their S24 Ultra for up to 10 years, definitely be worth it to replace the battery after 5 years of usage. As long as Samsung keeps making the same battery size for the next S25, S26, S27 and S28, then we won't have to worry about finding the right battery. You would just have to pay $200 usd for someone to professionally replace that battery.

First teardown of s24 ultra n first to watch ❤❤

Man, you just relieved so much stress. I wasn't paying attention, and I pushed the sim tool into the bottom microphone hole. I'm glad to hear that you can't do any damage from doing that. Phew! Thanks

Just discovered your channel - very nice work, PBK! I have an S9 that has bit the dust. Searching, it seems that likely the OLED screen is kaput. It died suddenly. I almost got it working by shining a bright light at the top of the phone, but it didn't last long enough for me to change the screen settings. Spent so much time to see if I could revive it. So, I've decided to order the S24 Ultra and will be arriving in a few hours. Thank you for putting together this video - was interesting to see what's inside.

It looks like samsung actually used titanium for the frame rather than apples £2.00 worth of Ti on the outside edge.

Apparently the thermal headroom for the ultra is lower than last year and s24/s24+ exynos chips, 44c vs 46c. This means performance is being throttled unless samsung increases headroom to 46c. Idk why they did this but in hot countries it may limit chip a lot in performance area.

You deserve a subscribe. Amazing. The good thing is that you show it in real-time, not time-lapse, and of done things. the only thing that moved quickly was screws which is understandable

Thanks for the teardown! I have an S24 ultra in yellow and will arrive next week! 👍

He just killed the screen

Job well done , clear and detailed demonstration. ...you earned my sub ...!!!!

Watching this on a s24 ultra titanium grey🙃

Thanks for this man, got mine today, loving it

I replaced the screen on my note9 last December learning from these guys, now I got my s24 ultra. Thanks again PBK.

Awesome❤❤

Puedes probar si la pantala funciona todavía porfa me quede con la curiosidad por que se despego totalmente 😢

Thank you for making this awesome video!

I just got mine this week and love this teardown video thanks! I was wondering if you have any pics from this teardown that are usable as a wallpaper? Much appreciated!

That's a small motherboard😮

lol, did samsung really use plastic to bind titanium outer frame to the aluminum inner frame?

Amazing guy! I have a S23ULTRA, I've always been curious to know what it's like inside and in this incredible video you show everything, that's an incredible video! Excellent even for sharing! 👏👏💎

Been waiting for this video ❤❤❤

Thanks for this viideo, i've been waiting since presentation

Awesome again thank you ! It's so elegant inside wow....

oooh thank you very much!! I feared having pierced the microphone thanks to your tutorial I am reassured!!!

Great work. Really loving the videos. If I'm gathering correctly, a new screen replacement can be done without special parts (e.g. the S23 Ultra)? I ran into an issue where my US purchased S23 Ultra was unable to be repaired in another country, as the screen also included the antennas and could not be purchased in that country at all. This looks like a significant redesign from previous.

That's amazing! Thanks for this video

Amazing, clear video. Thank you

PBK my favorite teardown channel!

*Thanks for sharing this exclusive content, keep it up bro, best wishes*

Wonder when apple will invent the graphene, Samsung and other manufacturers are using it for few years now, so apple will be last - as always, but when? Probably when they will be out of arguments for raising prices. Great video!

Excellent work , masterful !

Thank you for your work❤

Oh jeje, tanks I was worry about to pinch the microphone, thanks for the info =)

Bro left no crumbs with this teardown, end to end too. 🔥

Periscope camera: Samsung has put the first lens element in front of the prism, which can increase the size of the front element, which in turn should (in theory) increase (smaller f-number) the maximum aperture of the lens. (Even though this camera has a smaller aperture than Google Pixel 8 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max). Huawei also uses this trick with the P60 Pro / Art periscope camera, but Huawei has a second prism for a larger camera sensor.

Just got mine. Thanks for the video

Educational and detailed video, thank you PBKreviews. I'm watching this because the Sinjimoru Grip accessory i have for the S24 U failed and it caused my new phone to drop 5 feet on to asphalt (with rubber case and screen protector on) and it made me wonder if i could've damaged any parts inside. Do you think this kind of drop could damage any parts? Luckily there's no noticeable screen damage. i heard the most easily damaged part is the screen/camera lens, so if i can't see the damage, there is no "underlying" damages from these kind of drops if i'm correct.

Excellent video really needed to see all doubts are cleared thanks a lot and is the display finished now 😅?

Thank you, i was looking the video because i was wondering if i damaged the microphone due to putting the sim ejector tool on the mic, i'm glad to know that it's fine. Thank you very much.

12:21 omg omg you a life saver!!! I accidentally punched the mic instead of the sim card hole... i was so worried! You are a cyber angel!

Truly amazing engineering to make all those little parts fit together so compactly! But replacing the battery looks harder than I think it should be, or I could just buy a new phone every 2 years. Oh, I see . . . brilliant of you Samsung!

hello@PBKreviews could you confirm after taking apart the phone that without the sim tray inserted, or fully inserted that the phone is still IP68 capable? Or would you conclude the sim tray is absolutely needs to be inserted properly to be IP68 qualifed

Thank you bro good information thank you one again 👍👌

Amazing tear down. You are a professional. It's amazing to see how technology has evolved. Micro world in our hands. Now we know why phones are so expensive. Thank you Samsung!

thank you for the video, I see that they changed the place for the microphone, if we mess up when we insert the sim card we won't damage the microphone? Sincerely

Quick question: There are reports from Korea by people who used a flashlight to look through the speaker hole, claiming that the speaker mesh deep inside that hole looks to be damaged, uneven, or using low quality materials. When you completely took the phone apart, were you able to see any abnormalities with the bottom speaker unit pertaining to what once was a clearly visible metal mesh from the outside? Once again, thank you for the detailed assembly. Always a joy to come here whenever a new phone gets released.

Which looks like a gray magnesium structural frame is all one piece of titanium or just the outer edge is titanium?

Wow, what a technology. What is all this and together it works. Insane times for people.. and little scary too.

This video is awesome. More please

Thank you! What is the name of the main camera sensor?

Most wanted! I loved it...at least now I know something on my phone better.

After you open the phone, how do you glue it back so the waterproofing remains the same as factory? I need to take my s24 ultra to service to warranty replace one of the cameras or maybe the whole setup of cameras because I have rattle even when I record a video and I can hear the rattle in the background and some buzzing when turning the phone to the upper right . Thank you

It's master work putting it together

Thanks a lot for such a detailed video in a very short span of time. Is the bottom speaker module really improved when compared to S23 Ultra?

Hi!Thank you! 🌞

A great video. Samsung has great build quality.

Glad to see, it all... Wish you more views

Nice video! Did you heat the screen before taking the glass?

Waaw, greate Video Pro, I have Question please hope you have answer for it, sine I bought S24 ultra 2weeks ago, I have been experiencing signal strength low reading even I in area where cellular coverage is very good, the it ranges for - 80dbm till - 90dBm, comparing with older phone but with better readings - 50dBm. Does this cause from bad antenna from Samsung, or my phone ANTENNA is bad defacto issue, what are Samsung signal strength stander reading. Please accept my request and thanks allot for your amazing videos Sir

Well done. Great Video. It seems like the Oled Panel is not well glued to the glass like on previous Ultras. Some Users complain about the Colours being not so vibrant compared to S23 Ultra. Do you recognise this too?

Great to see! Why not disassembling the pen?

Keep, it up freind .. thank you❤🙏

What material is the internal chassis made of?

Please reply. Is ultra wide band really affect internet connection, s24 vs plus or ultra If it is then how just little explain that makes purchasing point thanks .

Thanks for the video

The camera module on the S24U is in a slightly different location than it is on the S23U, thus making reuse of old phone covers difficult to impossible.

Incredible piece of technology!!

Keep it up freind thank you❤🙏

I wish you showed more of that new highly glare resistant front glass

12:25 I pushed the pin quite hard because SIM tray wasn't coming out and will this still not damage my Mic seal?
