You know what I love about watching TronicsFix? How down the middle honest and genuine he is. Most TH-camrs if they couldn't fix it as was the case here wouldn't even release the video but even with the PS5 being unfixable this was still really enjoyable to watch.
100% agreed! If his videos inspire anyone to get into the business, they won't have inflated expectations for what is and isn't fixable because he uploads them regardless.
Given how badly people want a PS5 and how people struggle to make ends meet in order to buy them, dropping it and intentionally destroying it disgusts me....
Well he does profit off of that unique form of entertainment, so I think the market definitely has a place for people like TechRax. That being said, it would be nice if he sold the parts on eBay afterward so that it didn't just go into a landfill.
I get the sentiment but in reality destroying a few items for views is nothing compared to how much is junked because the manufacturers won't let us buy parts. I'm not sure if you saw TronicsFix's other video where he is stacking PS4's but that is just a drop in the bucket for how much waste there is in the electronics industry. So yeah destroying stuff that work for views isn't ideal but it just pales in comparison with the waste manufacturers are building directly into their products by not allowing them to be fixed.
The knowledge I’ve gained from this channel has been absolutely priceless! This has been my hobby now for the past couple years and its all thanks to you! Thank you so much!
Thing is. That's probably one of the shortest lives for a PS5 as it was newly opened out of the box. Open the box, A shiny new PS5! Warp about half an hour, TOTALLY DEAD PS5 from a drop!
New video title: Steve Never Fails To Deliver The Good Stuff Loved this one, especially the ending (not going to spoil it). Keep up this awesome content Steve, loving it
Steve, never ever short the high voltage caps. The discharge spark will be powerful, may cause harm to the person, will harm the capacitor and the pliers for sure. Better use a 5KΩ resistor rates 5watts or higher to discharge them. Safer method for everyone. In most cases however, there is a "bleeding" resistor in parallel with the caps that discharges them when unplugged. Dunno if this applies to the ps5, and for safety reasons we must assume the is not one, till proven therwise. Better measure with a multimeter in DC mode and discharge if needed. Cheers.
I've seen people discharge CRTs with a screwdriver and were fine. It's fine for the human as long as you're isolated. Is it bad for the caps? Myabe, but I've never seen a cap damaged from this.
@@awilliams1701 for crts it's considered non optimal but safe practice to discharge the tube with a long electrician graded screwdriver connected to ground with a wire,. This is not the case with high voltage electrolytic caps. The spark may cause component fragments to fly, fragments may harm your eyes and face. Also yes it reduces , the lifespan of the cap.
The teacher i had on a technician electronics course shorted both leads of a mains charged eletrolytic capacitor with a coin on the first class about capacitors, if it was dangerous to him i'm sure he wouldn't do it in front of the class and also ask other students if they also wanted to do it, but that's a story you have to take my word for it. The point is, the excess of electrons from one lead just wants to go to the lack of electrons on the other lead and obviously they will take the path of less resistance, and the reason you see a big spark is because the capacitor let's everything out at once, so if you don't use your finger as the "jumper" you shouldn't get shocked. I'm NOT by any means telling anyone to do the same thing and not be worried about big eletrolytic capacitors but discharging them the way Steve did is not that dangerous, i also don't like the spark so i do prefer and also recommend using a resistor to discharge a mains eletrolytic capacitor.
I was expecting that magic smoke, the problem with the board is that the magic smoke escaped from it. If you can ever find a way to reinsert the magic smoke in to motherboards you can fix any board!
While I totally disagree with the idea of destroying what is otherwise a perfectly good gaming console, at least it provided you with more content. It's too bad he had to destroy the machine. I don't know who he is, and I've never watched any of his videos. But if this is the kind of video that he makes, dropping a brand new console down a stairwell, then I don't think I need to watch him.
Yeah, I never have any interest in 'destroying stuff' type of video either. Everytime a video like that appear in my recommendation I immediately click on the 'not interested' button lol
especially one that’s in such short supply. so many people have been waiting ages to even get a chance to own one and this guy has a chance and then destroys it? i mean it’s not a necessity to life but it’s still so wasteful.
I was gonna say there's no way those layers weren't shorted lol Thanks for the video! Hopefully some usable parts that can help get other consoles working again. Really wish they made more available for purchase. Right to repair when?
@AzenStreams good thing i got mine for 500 euros and never even wasted one second for thinking about selling it overpriced. Instead i made it my newest mobile beast worth around 1300 euros with a click on 4k screen and 2tb internal m.2 ssd. Utterly disgusting is the fact, that those filthy scalpers in my country used the opportunity to buy ps5s one day before christmas (24th of dec) and put them overpriced in the private selling market only a day later. Such people should be shut down and forbidden to ever buy any consoles or other electronics again. I am glad for my luck in some way, when we look at the lost reputation on that device through scalpers.
My first impression at the beginning of the video: Even if this console itself is not fixable, this could be the first time I see a case in which it would be viable to take all the main chips and transplant them onto another board. I bet the main chips are still good.
@@hocares8987 That is basically TechRax's channel all he does on there is go destroy new and sometimes rare tech products and showcase the damage he has managed to do on the thing
I love this channel and find it very inspiring. Maybe its been already asked and answered, but a great video or suggestion would be to show how someone who doesnt know much about electronics could learn this amazing skill. Any suggestion for a great electronics online course (video and/or books) ? Thanks !
I really appreciate this video. I'm dabbling in electronics repair, and, while this is clearly an extreme example, it's nice to see at what point damage is irreparable and a when an attempted repair should be abandoned.
I don't know the full context of the other video, but it seems kind of wasteful to destroy a PS5 like this especially considering the silicon shortages.
Great video on your part, as always! Very entertaining to watch an attempt as difficult as this one would be, but I'll be that guy here.. Why in the hell would anyone drop a PS5 down a flight of stairs for clicks, when the world is such a mess and people can't go out and buy one if they want it? That just feels pretty jacked up and tone deaf tbh.
@@TonyH-z5w: Not just that, but it’s also financially worthwhile to do so. As mentioned, if you think it’s a bad decision, stop contributing to it being profitable.
This was a very great video again, it went out with a bang ;). at least you've got more parts to make another fix video on the other ps5's you've got :) have a good one Steve
AHH, Techrax! Now there's a name the algorithm hasn't shown me in years! It's quite interesting that he actually held on to the console after tossing it! Anyway, great video! I especially enjoyed the light show 😄
hahaha, what an awesome concept and coincidence. having techrax destroy tech and then you fixing it afterwards. i love that lol. also it’s a coincidence because i watch techrax as well as this channel
Hi TronicsFix 6:31 Obviously this has not been powered up for a long time, but discharging high voltage capacitors with a pair of long nose pliers or a screwdriver really isn't a very good idea. It's very bad for the capacitors as the sudden high discharge current is also flowing through the dielectric, it's bad for your tools, and the resulting discharge spark can cause injury (tiny hot fragments of metal in the eye for example) First check for charge with a multimeter, and if there is a high voltage present then use a power resistor 2.7K-3.3K 5W to discharge them. But I'm sure you already know that really. 😉 6:40 I actually teach people to repair power supplies, amongst other things, on YT. If no one taught how to do it then how could anyone become a professional at it? The PSU is repairable IMHO - these are double sided boards with no internal layers so even one that is snapped in half can be fixed. As the broken area is where the larger power components are mounted and not small SMD components it should be fairly easy to fix it. The broken resistor is probably a current sense resistor, I'd have to reverse engineer that area to work it out for certain. Can I be cheeky please and ask if I can have the PSU for free (I could pay postage of course) to attempt a repair on it? it would be an interesting video and much appreciated - I'll give you a shout of course 😁
Back in 2015 I got an unopened Destiny special edition ps4. I get home to set it up and the Duelshock 4 controller had zero screws holding the body together. It made a bad impression especially because it was my first Sony console ever.
So many people have no access to such a device. To see someone just destroy something so flippantly is pretty frustrating. At least you will get some use out of it, I guess.
Hello Steve I wonder if u can help me I brought a m2 drive for mine and I accidentally crosses theaded the screen that holds the drive u don't happen to have a spare do u I can buy
If ever your video had high action or high drama in it, this is the #1 contender. Could have saved this video for Chinese new year with all the fireworks lol. Still I weirdly like how in terms of continuity you have a PS5 you can legit use as parts to fix some other consoles. It may have only been a year but it feels like the repairable are trickling in. It's been an interesting journey to watch and follow.
This video will not stop annoying me in my recommendations. Please if I watch it will you stop harassing me with this one video that I honestly don’t wanna watch?
@6:42 I think to myself, okay take it to a trained professional.. then I think to myself *third person out of body looking at myself* I am a trained professional. 🤣🤣 Good video Steve as always!
This is why I like this channel. It seems to me that a lot of TH-camrs are using the shock value of destroying things you struggle to pay for so people would click on their videos, and this guy is like a uno reverse card, it's so satisfying😃
I thought I couldn't like this channel more. But the he goes and makes a collaboration(kinda) with one of my other favorite channels. Always a delight watching you.
I'm not a ps fan but I don't understand why people do this when there's people out there are having trouble finding the new consols an you have people like this that can get there hands on all these just destroying them
@@AlphaFox78 scalpers are doing it to make a profit too, doesn't mean it's not scummy. It's also wasteful for the environment to buy something just for destroying it.
My ps4 controller has a weird issue the right stick doesn't really have drift but the moment I touch L2 my right stick starts freaking out and starts drifting like crazy
The edges of a board like that where there aren't any ports is going to have a high likelihood of just being ground plane and the power rails. Before it even happened I figured there would be a dead short to ground through those busted layers and sure enough...
Glad you are repurposing these parts. Breaking a good console is kind of upsetting honestly but at least parts are going to be used from it to fix other broken ps5s
I haven't finished the video yet, but if this thing is not FUBAR, I dont know, what is. It might be good for donor parts though. (SMD components come to my mind)
Wouldn't it have been a good idea to chech the resistance on the power connector before powering on the board? Then maybe taking a dremel and trying to grind away the board to see where the layers were shorting would have been far more interesting to see than seeing the magic smoke come out of it :)
You know what I love about watching TronicsFix? How down the middle honest and genuine he is. Most TH-camrs if they couldn't fix it as was the case here wouldn't even release the video but even with the PS5 being unfixable this was still really enjoyable to watch.

I completely agree. :)
Given how badly people want a PS5 and how people struggle to make ends meet in order to buy them, dropping it and intentionally destroying it disgusts me....
I hate those videos where people break perfectly good stuff.
That's just awful to drop the PS5 intentionally. My PS5 is like a new born child. Never going to even leave a scratch on it!! Lol
Lol
Seeing that dropped like that breaks my heart.
surprising how well it took a fall like that
Agreed.
hey, you're that guy who buys good, bad & fake from local shops & websites.
keep what you doin
Electronics autopsy. I'm surprised how well it took the drop.
I am too actually.
@@Tronicsfix I hope it took it good

Video released 1 hour ago.
Your comment: *20 hours ago*
I'm always going to be disgusted by people who destroy expensive things for views, it's just the height of vanity and just... eurgh.
he made more money off the vid then the console was worth. he made profit.
I'm always going to be disgusted by people who take destroying products seriously.
If you could destroy a $1000 object but people paid you $2000 to watch, would you do it?
Well he does profit off of that unique form of entertainment, so I think the market definitely has a place for people like TechRax. That being said, it would be nice if he sold the parts on eBay afterward so that it didn't just go into a landfill.

I really hate when people break stuff for clicks, but I’m glad you’re able to reuse the parts in this PS5 to repair other consoles
people are just idiots I mean just give it away to someone who really wanted one.
Me too. I can't stand channels like that. Especially now when there's an actual chip shortage. Obnoxious channels like that just annoy me.

What a stupid way to waste a console in good condition, I know its his money, but still it drives mad. Good to see you trying to repair it.
Isn't techrax the same guy who convinced everyone to mess up their iphones?
"that's definitely a concern" when looking at things most people would immediately write off... I think you'd be a good doctor! 🤣

As soon as I saw the motherboard, I thought nope. Thanks for showing us how these things work and should function.
Considering the fall plus the multiple hits on the way down, the fact you can even harvest parts from it is amazing.
Not too bad, only needed a new disc drive, PSU, motherboard, Hard drive and case. Other than that pretty much good condition all round! 😂
And on eBay it’s described as “like new”.
Well.. he started a little cozy fire. Was fun to watch🤣
Lol, not that cozy
I was expecting that magic smoke, the problem with the board is that the magic smoke escaped from it.
If you can ever find a way to reinsert the magic smoke in to motherboards you can fix any board!
The green "resistor" at 6:56 is actually an inductor, that's why it has a copper winding around a core (a coil).

I haven't finished the video yet, but if this thing is not FUBAR, I dont know, what is. It might be good for donor parts though. (SMD components come to my mind)
Wouldn't it have been a good idea to chech the resistance on the power connector before powering on the board? Then maybe taking a dremel and trying to grind away the board to see where the layers were shorting would have been far more interesting to see than seeing the magic smoke come out of it :)
Cool video,😁
ive always wanted to see a video like this
