    Newsflash: An S9+ is better and closer to an S10 than an S9



  2. Megadead _ on July 25, 2021 at 9:06 pm

    wow



  3. Goat Meal on July 25, 2021 at 9:06 pm

    Amazing! I’ve thought of doing the same thing but with Verizon Ellipsis 7 parts (I know, it’s an old device.)



  4. Mojaveli jr Bassim on July 25, 2021 at 9:08 pm

    Wow



  5. Ernest Adu on July 25, 2021 at 9:09 pm

    How much did you spend to get all the parts



  6. Techno Smart on July 25, 2021 at 9:11 pm

    Just opened it to dislike



  7. Eashan Padyal on July 25, 2021 at 9:11 pm

    This is way better than shredding all the parts and buying new phone but I don’t think God jiants would love this method even though it’s good for planet



  8. Alto Arbol on July 25, 2021 at 9:14 pm

    how much money did it take ?? to build ?



  14. Nil Desperandum on July 25, 2021 at 9:19 pm

    It was strange that you couldn’t find parts in China! By the way you could prefer Oneplus too. Much better than Samsung!



  15. SU FUN on July 25, 2021 at 9:19 pm

    Make your own phone and modify it do not use other names make your own phone and give it a good name



  16. ambread allan on July 25, 2021 at 9:20 pm

    You can factory reset it in the recovery menu



  28. Alessandro De Mitri on July 25, 2021 at 9:39 pm

    Hi Strange Parts, I am always fascinated to see these videos of yours to buy a piece here one there and then assemble it all! I ask out of simple curiosity, are all these components also purchasable via the internet ?, because they have really low prices



  29. imran tahir on July 25, 2021 at 9:40 pm

  31. Robin Wong on July 25, 2021 at 9:41 pm

  34. 1000k on July 25, 2021 at 9:43 pm

    how much cost that phone build?



  35. Darkskies Vincor on July 25, 2021 at 9:46 pm

    I’ve actually wanted iFixit screw sets.. Unfortunately , this is only available in US. Shipping rates are expensive to get it out of US.
    To get it to Malaysia, it’ll have to pay almost 50USD plus on top of 69USD to get it here. That cost is equivalent to almost getting another set of IFixit screw sets.



  36. tsensk M on July 25, 2021 at 9:47 pm

  43. Prasanna Ganesh on July 25, 2021 at 9:54 pm

    When will you build a iPad



  44. Luca Dario Bützberger on July 25, 2021 at 9:55 pm

    If you have a locked phone, you can factory reset it. However, all android phjones have a factory reset protection (frp), that is automaticcally active if android 5 or above is installed. If the google account wasn’t deleted from the device, you will not be able to setup the phone since it requires you to log in using the owners acccount after the factory reset.
    There are ways to bypass this however but it requires a bit of knowledge and isn’t that easy, especially if you have no clue about the tech. But if you know how, it can be done within 10 minutes. In such a case, the easiest method is to contact the owner of the device and ask if they can remove the device in their google account. This is obviously only possible if the device has a known owner and if you have the contacts to that person.

    @8:27 when he starts speaking mandarin with the local accent… 🔥🔥



  46. Spicy Chicken on July 25, 2021 at 9:57 pm

    I think there’s a reason why he moved in Hong Kong. Not just experience but also maybe cuz Hong Kong is top 1 YouTube payed country in the world by about 48$ per 1000 views I guess.
