Perfect teardown video - short, clear, concise, with just the right amount of additional comments on key elements. I've bookmarked it just in case of future need, but enjoyed watching it to learn more about the guts of my new P7Pro. Thanks PBK.🙂
If I where a beting man, I would put money on this channel blowing up to over a million subs in the not too distance future. You do fantastic job. Stright to the point, no BS. The way it should really be. keep it up.
Do you have extra part? The missing part comes off at the upperT4 screw location at 2:50-2:52. Other than that missing detail, this video is extremely helpful and very well done!
BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN SEPARATING THE SCREEN! THE PLASTIC FRAME MUST STAY WITH THE SCREEN! I was careful, used a heat gun, and gently separated it with a guitar pick, and even still, the pick went in-between the layers of the actual screen and killed it. It only poked into the layers 1mm or less and yet the screen is now non-functional. Make sure to start on the sides, NOT the top/bottom as that's where the screen layers can separate more easily. Also, put the pick/spudger straight down first as far as it will go and only then start angling it inwards to pry. Otherwise there's a good chance your spudger or pick will separate the screen layers and kill it.
but is the display you detach really the original one? because it is very strange that when you pass the pick under the perimeter of the screen it is as if you do not encounter obstacles, then there is a clear detachment of the image, a montage, and when you lift it you see that the frame is attached to the display and that it has some roughness. how come the pick slides smoothly?? the video shows that the frame remains in the frame but it is not like that, right? this leads those who disassemble it to damage the display.
Can you give us the distance of the charging coil's outer diameter from the volume buttons and the top or bottom of the phone? It would be nice to know where to put magsafe adapter stickers since it isn't obvious exactly where the coil is from the outside.
Hey man I know this is a lil old but what would you recommend for me to be able to replace the back glass? I saw another video with someone doing it but to separate the glass from the wireless charger is very tricky. Would have been nice to do this before I replaced the screen lol but I didn't know it was so hard
This video deserves at least one million views... Pixel 7 Pro should have had OIS for the UW, as well as for the front, and a TOF sensor as well for even better low-light performance... It is easily possible for Google to implement it.
There are next to no phones that have OIS on the ultrawide camera, because at these kinds of FOVs slight movements are not really visible on the photo. Also, TOF sensors do not contribute to a better low-light performance.
@@haoleiz5448 So, what is the problem with implementing OIS on a UW camera? Since these companies are charging such a huge amount, I guess there should be no problem in implementing it, and the TOF does make a difference in low-light, like the iPhone lidar sensor, which takes better portraits in low-light. The auto-focus is fast because of the TOF sensor.
@@tanmayfadnis5440 Well I think the main reason for not implementing OIS into the ultrawide camera is that the competition doesn't have it either. Given that neither the IPhone 14 Pro nor the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra have it, you can't really expect Google to use OIS for the ultrawide camera in my opinion, especially considering both Pixels being cheaper phones. I guess OIS on the ultrawide camera is just not an industry standard yet. And in case of the TOF sensor, the IPhone does not make better low-light portraits due to the LIDAR sensor to my knowledge, it merely helps with edge detection. LIDAR can also scan 3d-objects as a bonus, but it doesn't help with image quality. Lastly, Google uses laser autofocus, making a TOF sensor a bit redundant
Important question: I repair my phones myself. Repairability is very important before I purchase a new phone. One question I have and is not clear from the video... Do have to dissemble EVERYTHING in case you have to replace the back panel of the phone. A glass back panel breaks easily. Is there an easy way to replace the back panel. Thanks
I tried to remove the back panel and it wouldn't budge so I didn't want to risk breaking it. It's possible you can still pry it off but its glued on tight. However the wireless charging coil is adhered to it as well, and the flex cable is routed inside the frame and under the main board, so if you are able to pry the back off, you would need to make sure your careful and are able to somehow peel off the wireless charging coil from the glass (if there is even enough work around room) so that you don't tear the cable. If not then you would need to disassemble the phone to remove the board and route the flex cable for the wireless charging/nfc out the back.
How many speakers are built into the device? I see 2 openings, 1 on each side of the charging port but I'm only hearing sound out of the right opening. Wanted to see if this is expected.
I just had to open my phone after getting water in it very easily. I later noticed that the screen was seperated from the phone where the power button is. After removing the screen, I noticed the battery is slighty ballooned. I assumed this was from having it on a heating pad before opening. I now realize that it is probably why it was opened like it was, the battery pushing on the screen. I vaccummed out what moisture i could get out, lenses cleared up, may leave it over night to dry further. Do you think the battery should be replaced? Not sure why its like that, I keep it on a wireless charger 90% of the time. Also, should I replace the seal on the screen? Most of it pealed off on opening.
It's best to remove the screen, disconnect the battery cable, dry out any moisture or water inside, brush off any corrosion around chips or connectors (so the phone won't short later on and render your motherboard or parts useless) and then re assemble it. But yeah if your battery is bloated, you definitely should change it since it can cause damage to your screen, or worse, pierce and catch fire later. Also if you want to keep water or dust/debris out, best to apply new adhesive. Here is a link to all the parts you need for it, including the adhesive tape for the screen: www.mobilesentrix.com/replacement-parts/others-brands-parts/google-pixel/pixel/pixel-7-pro
Great video, thank you. I've been trying to work out the exact position of the wireless charging coils for retro fitting a magsafe ring to the back of the phone. If you get a chance would you be able to measure the distance from the top/bottom/sides of the phone to where you think the wireless charging coils start? Huge thanks in advance.
Hi, my Pixel 7 pro was dipped into the water from the camera side (not the usb side). It worked fine for a couple of hours, after which the camera stopped working. Noticed some water seeped into the front cam area. Kept the ohone in rice for 24 hours and restarted the phone (no water visible anymore). My front cam works fine but when using the back camera, screen is completely black. Everything else seems to work fine. How can i fix the back camera issue?
Hi there, small question. While removing my case I heard a "crack" and I then noticed that the the 5G antenna (the small plastic piece shaped like an oval on the top of the phone) is quite loose and I can lift it up a little with my nails. Is that an issue that could cause me to lose any connectivity/that needs fixing?
That would probably just be the outer cover and not the antenna itself. The internal antenna should not be affected by it. However if the cover comes off, or breaks off, you can run into issues of dust or debris or even water getting into your phone.
WOW great video, can you tell us what modem is in there please as if it is the same as last years PRO then the phone will be unusable in low signal areas, thanks for the teardown 🙂
Thanks, and you're welcome. I'm not sure which modem it has since its probably under the covered shields which I did not want to remove and risk damaging the board. :)
Because it's designed to be opened from the back for those phones compared to it being designed to be opened from the front on this phone. The phones which are designed to be opened from the front also generally don't have extremely strong adhesive around the screen that would make it difficult to pry off since there is a risk of damaging the screen if you need to repair anything inside the device.
Thank you very much for detailed video! I had an issue and I tried to resolve it by replacing the chassis, so I removed basically everything. Unfortunately the phone keep rebooting when not under power supply, and it become very hot.7 Keep going :)
Very cool. Question - my phone got wet - I dissembled it and dried it out, butt noticed that the volume down button wasn't working after. I did something stupid and shut the phone down, and now it will only boot into a fastboot menu, but not allow me to boot to the OS. Any ideas on what it could be or how I could either disconnect the volume altogether or boot into the OS?
Check and make sure there is no corrosion on any of the chips on the motherboard or connectors as well as the flex cable for the pwr and volume keys. If there is, use a small brush like a tooth brush to brush it off to prevent it from shorting. Most likely there is some corrosion either on the flex cable (which if I'm not mistaken was underneath the motherboard and the board sits on it making contact/connection) or by where the clickers behind the physical buttons are. So you may need to remove the screws holding the metal cover over the side buttons from the inside to release/remove it and clean out. Removing the flex cable completely wont help you since the power button flex is the same and you wouldn't be able to power it on. Most likely its just some corrosion or liquid left over shorting the cable making it think the volume up or down key are pressed and making it go into fastboot every time you power it on.
@@PBKreviews thank you. I have tried loosening the screws on the buttons (seems the volume up/down and the power are on the same rail. I will go further and remove the motherboard and look to disconnect the volume altogether or at least clean any corrosion off. Thanks so much. I appreciate your response.
Great vid. Does the front speaker of the regular pixel 7 work the same as the 7 pro in terms of attachment position? I hated that the pixel 5 front speaker was attached to the screen and made it very hard to replace.
My Pixel 7 Pro was damaged but still I was able to use it for a month until it suddenly died. I did everything I could but it just doesn't start. Can you help me figure out the problem?
Unfortunate I can't get the replacement battery here in thailand. Lots of options are available for pixel 6 pro battery though, and they look extremely similar. idk.
Great video. Thankyou. Went rafting with mine and this morning all the cameras are fogged. If they don't clear in about a week it will be tear down time to clean the lenses on the inside. Doubt very much that warranty will cover from what I've read. Pixel 7 Pro should not come with a water rating IP68. It was a refurb unit, so that will have something to do with it.
Curious, is the black USB-c port shell plastic? Google has been one of the only phone companies to use plastic usb-c ports that routinely fail early in phone ownership. I'm curious if they finally adopted metal usb-c ports like the rest of the industry. Thanks.
If that truly is the case, wow. The pixel series is the only phone series where 3rd party USBC boards and flex are of superior quality than OEM. Good job google!
Great video Yeh, scammers like google should link this video to their under performing phones since they don't resist water one bit. Never touching another google product as long as i live.
Very nice video, My phone was dropped into a pool while on vacation. It was removed and set out to dry but about 2 hours into drying it got very very hot to where the top screen was easily removed so I opened that up to finish drying. Of curse it does not work now. I would like my pictures so can buy an identiacl phone to swap parts and try recovering them but what part stores the pictures locally ? I will put that into a working phone and see if I can get the pics thanks
Thanks. Always keep in mind, if your phone gets water damage (even if ip rated and water makes its way in), you need to take it apart as soon as possible and disconnect the battery cable as well as dry out any water inside and brush off corrosion on chips and connectors. Because if the battery stays plugged in, the parts will short and become unusable. You can try taking apart completely and brushing off any corrosion on the motherboard and connectors with a small brush like a tooth brush, and then place the board in a working screen assembly with a new battery to see if it will power up. This way you rule out the screen and battery being defective. But if you still have no luck then you probably are out of options. The data is stored on the ROM chip on the motherboard and that's soldered to the board and isn't user replaceable.
You would need to backup your data and do a factory reset (which would erase all you data) and if still no luck, then you can try running the fingerprint calibrations tool (pixelrepair.withgoogle.com/carrier_selection )
Hi! I have my pixel 6a and I am worried that it can stop working and it can not be changed :c never damaged one in my life but I do not want this one to be the first.
Based off general manufacturer parts availability like last years pixel 6 pro etc. Usually with pixel devices, ifixit has a self repair program for getting parts, but not all parts are available and not right away also.
@@rjosef1983 because they just said that they improved the tensor chip but didn't make any significant improvements. It was all implied. If they have made significant improvements then they would've announced it
Not too sure, I would think its better for fast charging to charge each cell separately at the same time but aside from that I don't see what other benefit it would have.
It's a bit sad that the charging port is soldered to the board, you'll need a heatgun to replace the thing, apart from that it's looks good, well, apart from the battery, you'll have to remove the display before removing the battery, wich could cause damage to the board if not done correctly
@@PBKreviews Thanks for replying Yeah I got it It's exactly in 5:32 but my bad didn't see it first time. Also I agree with you that this phone doesn't deserve more 5.5 cuz charging port mounted to the motherboard is very bad decision.
If you ever want to see the phone first before anyone, this guy has it.

Sorry not sure. Can't seem to find one online
I'd like to know why you don't open the S22+/Ultra from your previous videos starting from the display like with this teardown?
Because it's designed to be opened from the back for those phones compared to it being designed to be opened from the front on this phone. The phones which are designed to be opened from the front also generally don't have extremely strong adhesive around the screen that would make it difficult to pry off since there is a risk of damaging the screen if you need to repair anything inside the device.
Can you identify where the bottom mic is located and whether its part of the motherboard or the bottom speaker assembly?
Its the gold square piece to the left of the charger port @4:29 in the video on the motherboard.

Check and make sure there is no corrosion on any of the chips on the motherboard or connectors as well as the flex cable for the pwr and volume keys. If there is, use a small brush like a tooth brush to brush it off to prevent it from shorting. Most likely there is some corrosion either on the flex cable (which if I'm not mistaken was underneath the motherboard and the board sits on it making contact/connection) or by where the clickers behind the physical buttons are. So you may need to remove the screws holding the metal cover over the side buttons from the inside to release/remove it and clean out. Removing the flex cable completely wont help you since the power button flex is the same and you wouldn't be able to power it on. Most likely its just some corrosion or liquid left over shorting the cable making it think the volume up or down key are pressed and making it go into fastboot every time you power it on.

Yeh, scammers like google should link this video to their under performing phones since they don't resist water one bit. Never touching another google product as long as i live.
thanks
yooo man was quick publishing...
👍 :)
Very nice video, My phone was dropped into a pool while on vacation. It was removed and set out to dry but about 2 hours into drying it got very very hot to where the top screen was easily removed so I opened that up to finish drying. Of curse it does not work now. I would like my pictures so can buy an identiacl phone to swap parts and try recovering them but what part stores the pictures locally ? I will put that into a working phone and see if I can get the pics
thanks
Thanks. Always keep in mind, if your phone gets water damage (even if ip rated and water makes its way in), you need to take it apart as soon as possible and disconnect the battery cable as well as dry out any water inside and brush off corrosion on chips and connectors. Because if the battery stays plugged in, the parts will short and become unusable. You can try taking apart completely and brushing off any corrosion on the motherboard and connectors with a small brush like a tooth brush, and then place the board in a working screen assembly with a new battery to see if it will power up. This way you rule out the screen and battery being defective. But if you still have no luck then you probably are out of options. The data is stored on the ROM chip on the motherboard and that's soldered to the board and isn't user replaceable.
thank you very much for the reply@@PBKreviews
i fixed my screen at a top repair place but the finger print is not showing ...how do i get it back
You would need to backup your data and do a factory reset (which would erase all you data) and if still no luck, then you can try running the fingerprint calibrations tool (pixelrepair.withgoogle.com/carrier_selection )
Hi! I have my pixel 6a and I am worried that it can stop working and it can not be changed :c never damaged one in my life but I do not want this one to be the first.
Faster than the super Man. 😃. 👍

How can you rate parts availability? The phone isn't even fully out, yet. (Yes, you can pre-order it)
Based off general manufacturer parts availability like last years pixel 6 pro etc. Usually with pixel devices, ifixit has a self repair program for getting parts, but not all parts are available and not right away also.
@@PBKreviews ok so it's an estimate from how it was. Good to know. That's an info I can trust ^^
Just thought it came out of the blue, nvm.
Are you able to confirm the architecture of the processor, whether it's 4nm or 5nm?
It's the same architecture as the previous tensor
@@juanmondragon did you teardown the phone? How do u know
@@rjosef1983 because they just said that they improved the tensor chip but didn't make any significant improvements. It was all implied. If they have made significant improvements then they would've announced it
@@juanmondragon no it's 4nm
@@sora.2111 it's the same as the previous one
Wow Micron Ram chip. I hope the Rom should be micron too.
Guitar pick can be used for something else then
yup :)
screen looks just as curved as the P6 Pro. I thought it was less curved?
Is dual cell battery (2x2500mah) a better option than a single 5000mah one ?
Not too sure, I would think its better for fast charging to charge each cell separately at the same time but aside from that I don't see what other benefit it would have.
@@PBKreviews OK thanks 👍
Has this Pixel 7 Pro any vapor chamber cooling system ?
It's a bit sad that the charging port is soldered to the board, you'll need a heatgun to replace the thing, apart from that it's looks good, well, apart from the battery, you'll have to remove the display before removing the battery, wich could cause damage to the board if not done correctly
Yup, would be much better if it was a replaceable part.
I just came here, so to know which part got loose and making rattling sound when i shake the phone.
What happened to the {Graphit Film}??
You mean when re-assembling it? I forgot to include it in the video, but when I took it apart again to add new adhesive etc, I placed it back on.
How about the disassembly scores ?
what do you mean? its in the video. you can also see the timestamp of where in the video it is in the description.
@@PBKreviews
Thanks for replying
Yeah I got it
It's exactly in 5:32 but my bad didn't see it first time.
Also I agree with you that this phone doesn't deserve more 5.5 cuz charging port mounted to the motherboard is very bad decision.
You're welcome :). Yep, it was also slightly more of a process to remove the motherboard compared to the 6 pro.
This Google pixel 7 pro looks it Would be Very Easy to Replace Parts 👍🔥😃 Especially to lift Front Screen like Nice 👍 Good video btw 👍💯
Thanks!
I broke the back glass. What do I do?
HOLY DAMN. 6 MINUTES 💀💀💀💀
dang the charging port is still soldered on to the board 😔
:)
