- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 มิ.ย. 2024
- I purchased this iPhone 15 Pro Max 512GB for only 370USD, but it has sustained major damage from falling out of a motorcycle riders pocket and onto a motorway at 110Km/h.

The hardwork you put in your repair is unmatched. I mean the cleanliness you follow and trying to retain the originality is amazing! Great job Hugh! Way to go!
Hugh is a great entertainer but definitely not anywhere close to a professional repair tech. Having worked in the industry, I would consider Hugh an enthusiast rather than a pro.
@@makeitrainnaren Ye, I think Hugh is yet to learn board level repairs.
@@makeitrainnarenexacly this repair is more of a hack job than a repair in the eyes of a professional repair tech allsow in the eyes of a professional repair tech u woud not whant to fix a iphone this new in this type of a condition because u cannot get parts or fix it to that high brand new quality standard u just cant professionals have standards enthusiasts have diy standards xd anyway he did a great job considering how bad it is but its still a buchered phone witch u cannot sell and is only for personal use considering that u do not care of the condition the phone is in

you should check out a spelling bee sometimes
It's an amazing feat that you accomplished this :) Repairing iPhones is something, but restoring the frame is something else.
It is a real shame that the replacement display causes auto brightness not to work, that Apple anti-repair nonsense is really getting out of hand.
They have the mindset of just buy a new one. They couldn't care less about repairs .
This will go on until someone creates a device to transfer the serial number between parts like has been done previously.
In all honesty, auto brightness is hardly useful anymore since iOS 16, they've completely botched it, it's much better to manage your brightness yourself.
@@KieranBLKYeah but true tone is also missing... And it's not a reason, it has the sensors anyway so it should work nonetheless. I juste hope one day the EU will force them to stop that anti repair nonsense like always but that should be an american thing to start with...
@@Khmtravelvlog*Couldn’t.
This legit happened to me a couple of weeks ago. I dropped my Oppo Find X5 Pro from my car going 120 km/h yet all that broke was my back glass. And even that only had 2-3 cracks in it. The rest of the phone was in perfect condition. Still no one believes me except for a friend who saw everything from his car.
I don't believe you.
I wouldn't believe it if it happened to me!
Well, I would, but I'd still be in disbelief.
Absolute lies lol 😂 some people will make anything up to get the TH-cam host to comment . How pathetic
Cool story bro.
My old cheapo Nubia M2 fell on the front screen many times from waist high. No crack at all.
But your story doesnt seem plausible because you said from car at 120km/h speed but you never tried to mention what caused the phone to drop.
I'm really impressed, I expected this to be a simple case replacement, but doing things like actually repairing the frame is what keeps me coming back to your videos
This is by far one of your best restore projects! Bravo. That phone was totaled and your work has kept it from a landfill! Too bad Apple doesn't care enough to salvage otherwise working phones this badly damaged.
Or even older phones that are pretty useable on daily basis
One the whole youtube there are ONLY 2 channels that have me glued to the screen from start to the end: Hugh Jeffreys and Project Farm. Thanks Hugh! Excellent job!
Are you glued to the screen using Hugh’s screen glue?
M539 Restoration as well.
@@cc8530😂😂😂
@@cc8530 Lol, I like his straight no bull approach. Too many wafflers out there.
I'm not really into Automotive DIY content usually but Project Farm's Transmission Rebuild was so amazing because i sometimes really wonder how a exactly transmission works internally on a mechanical level!
Plot twist: the phone was iCloud locked
was expecting that....
If it was he could have filed a claim with ebay
@@stevenbenson9976these broken phones are usually sold as is so you can’t do anything
Great job friend👍😍😍
hi
Woahhhhh jaiphone??????
Wussup
Your content is 🗑️ 🗑️ 🚮 🚮
What's up bro 😅
Finally a new restoration video, i much prefer thease longer videos then a 6-8 minute video.
I'm honestly surprised that this Phone didn't even last 5 months out of the box, Just like that iPhone 14 Pro Max you fixed last year! Can't wait to see you get to a million subs, Hugh!
Thanks, I can't wait either.
So if you buy an S24 and drop it from your balcony and it breaks you’ll be disappointed? Of course a phone only lasts 5 months if you drop it at 110km/h
@@ilbufalantdellefigurine4488 not sure if it breaks
I’m always impressed by what Hugh does! This guy is a legend. 🐐
truly one of ur best repairs Hugh! Well done!👏
Kinda surreal feeling when you said "lets plug in the usbc cable" tbh 😂
I love your job, The way you handle your repair is outstanding ❤💯
That's unimaginable! Very nice video again, Hugh!!! 🔥
Excellent video as always. I would use a titanium epoxy instead of super glue, and also sand with a 2000 or 3000 grit sandpaper the scratches on the bottom.
Best TH-camr ever.
U are amazing Hugh!
The repared frame which you have done it’s a work of art it has an image a history and a story Hugh what you do is you bring phones to life and you give back their identity
I never make it through one of your videos without commenting just how awesome you are.
..wow, I cannot believe how good you have gotten at this stuff, keep er goin' man that's amazing.
Excited for you to hit 1 million subs!!!
Watching ur repair videos is really therapeutic, hope u get a million subs soon.
not gonna lie, i’m not a tech guy by any means, i don’t know any of the words that you’re saying but i’m finding it hella interesting. thanks for introducing me to a new interest bro :)
This was a very cool repair, amazing work 👍
Your best salvage yet because you had to repair the frame rather than replacing it. Great work!
I impresses me again and again with what confidence you take these complicate pieces apart! Great job and thx for filming / sharing.
Nice work, Hugh!
I LOVE the idea of repairing the frame! never even thought about that haha
I do wish you had used a genuine display and rear glass assembly from the self repair store though, the MagSafe magnets not being aligned correctly did bug me a bit haha
Man I legit thought you were getting a new frame, wasn’t expecting such bold move of going full blacksmith with it. 👏🏽 👏🏽
Very impressive work. Saving another phones life
You make such a good “advocate” “a dedicated right to repair advocate”. How wonderful!
It's like a sunday tradition now watching another of hughs brilliant videos.
i appreciate your craftsmanship
😮😮😮🎉❤bravo mate. Great work as always
You make it look so easy. Amazing skills.
Always an inspiration jeffery
an impossible task done! so great work
Most of tuffest reparing work done by successfully.
Well done sir👍💯
Good Job Bro glad you got it working again good video and i enjoyed it
Awesome Video Hugh
You are an iPhone repair wizard great job 👍🏾
Nice job Hugh
I'm amazed you were able to salvage the broken titanium piece. Bravo.
The reason I subscribed to your channel. I these sort of restoration videos, great one
Literally no one who would see that phone would think the literal frame was in shambles. This has to be the craziest phone restoration so far!
This was an interesting repair - love how you fixed the frame with glue, that shit is right up my alley.
Another Banger from Jeffrey.
Nice work! Bravo.
Amazing what you do with these things mate, a braver man than me, I will stick with laptops and PC's lol. Hats off to you for your skills.
Wow! Beautiful! Well done!
What an amazing job you are gifted 👍😎
Good job on the iPhone bodywork!!
Wow, that was fast.
Always looking forward to your fix it vids, cant wait for the nwxt one, and can you make one about DIY housing for iphones
Love your videos 😊
Amazing repair!
Super glue? Maybe an epoxy like J-B Weld would have been better.
Basically glued all the broken parts 😂 I won’t use it, probably sell to next sucker and buy a new one.
he will use it till he gets a new frame at a lesser price
thats what I was thinking. surely there has to be a better adhesive than super glue.
This is so painful to watch
You did a great job Huge!
hope the people of the future will appreciate the effort we have to go through to repair a phone
Great job mate🙂👍🏼🍺
Imagine spending $1800 for a phone to spend more money for subscriptions and to remove ads, the mobile world has gone corrupt.
😂 Titanium...😂
I'm impressed that the photo module has no outside scratches ? 😳
Looks like the sapphire glass works well, even if sapphire don't like be shocked...
...maybe the future IPHONE will be in full Titanium/Sapphire ? 😄
Oh I've forgot, very impressive job ! 👍
The grey 15 Pro max looks great
Regarding the ready-made adhesive strips, they usually require activation as well, so heating while clamping down, and then let them sit for up to 12 hours. Had a S10+ back glass pop open again because I missed that step.
You are very good at fixing phones
Really amazing job! Put a case on it, and no one would guess how bad it was 😮
Wow I agree so expensive you done wonderful job fixing it
good work
Very impressive! I can't believe you saved that frame! Also loss of auto brightness is a feature lol
That’s called good video!
That's pretty crazy that the titanium frame actually broke apart 😳
Frame is a W. I mean, buying a new one would be too easy haha.
I was going to recommend a device like the Qian Li iCopy to clone the screen data from the broken panel to the refurb panel, but it seems the current model only supports up to the iPhone 14.
Hopefully they get a revised daughterboard and software to do 15' panels soon.
Still, quite a spectacular repair...I would have parted it out and sold it, frankly, thinking it too far gone.
I'd never have thought that frame would come anywhere close to aligned after that much damage.
Thanks for posting this!
Awesome job for restoring the iPhone 15 Pro Max, Hugh. Even though I prefer Android phones and tablets designed from 2008-2020 rather than iPhones, Samsung Galaxy S21, S22, S23, S24, it's plus, ultra, ultra plus models and other new designed phones, my mom and I would try to fix the Samsung Galaxy S9+ in it's midnight black color that is on AT&T my dad had that has a broken LCD screen that needs a brand new one.
I dropped my Nokia at 200mph and the road cracked. Thankfully my Nokia was ok
Great result Hugh! Pop it in a cover and you're back in business. You get epoxy for metal that sets to a silver colour and can be filed/machined. How much more would it have cost to get the Apple OEM screen replacement to get full functionality?
Impressive stuff
nice restoration
Such a beautiful phone
Hugh really said fine I'll fix fhe frame myself
That’s why I’m sticking with my 12 mini: easy repairs (as rewa has cracked the antirepair tricks for my model)
Top repair!!!
I feel like this dude is practicing the Japanese art of restoring broken vases for phones and such.
Nice restore
Wait-wait-wait, hold on. You just assembled that titanium frame with several drops of superglue? And someone will buy that phone later? For real?
the fact that the restored frame looks like new is wild.
Hey Albo, ni Coaches Nyoro. Great work right there. I believe bado unakumbuka maboys hapa Nakuru
Amazing to see Hugh battled with fixing the newest iPhone lineup, nice job!
now this is a HJ video.
Hugh is the type of guy to play puzzles with broken iphones😂
Wow , well done mate , 99.9 % of us would have instantly put that phone in the too hard basket , again , well done sir !
Hugh Jeff man!
Amazing! I wouldn't be surprised if folks at Cupertino are subscribed, taking notes for how they can further lock down the iPhone 16 and 17 to make even super hard for you. Moral of the story, store your phone securely and put it in a case. Going 7 years now with my iPhone X and not a scratch.
x Good but a little slow
For the long run, i would just buy a new one. But hats off to this beautiful restoration
Legend!
I do like your videos.
Very much
Amazing, that is not an easy task
at that price for the display, I hope it was a soft OLED. The cheaper ones these days seem to be a hard oled or LCD. Nice Job on the restoration and repair.
