Repairing MrMobile's Busted Motorola Razr 5G - Feat. Michael Fisher
Ғылым және технология
@TheMrMobile goes "into the fold", but I go inside the fold in an effort to repair his folding Razr smartphone that not even Motorola offered a repair on.

Every time I pull the RAZR out of my pocket, I'm grateful anew. Thanks again for the excellent attention to detail (and the dogged determination in parts sourcing) it took to resurrect my favorite flip phone, Hugh!

Is there not a case for that phone? like i get that cases can be annoying with bigger phones but they can be VITAL in keeping a phone safe. I have a clone otterbox defender style case for my Galaxy S21 Ultra, it may not be an Otterbox but a similarly designed case is better than no case at all imo.

What a gent for helping someone when no one else would without charging them for a new handset Need more people like you man
To think I started watching you back in 2017… You’ve come a long way man, congrats!
Rather easy and straight forward repair - surprised that there were so few willing to do the job.
Great repair work, Hugh. Your care and skill makes it look easy.
Amazing collaboration, Hugh! Congratulations!
Hugh really you are a gem of a person you saved a device going to a land fill and held someone’s heart and repaired it 🤩 wow.
Wow this is an unexpected but great cross-over. Keep it up! Great work!
Been waiting for it ever since MrMobile tweeted that he got it fixed from you
I've been waiting for this one. Thanks for the great videos.
Whoa. Collaboration with MrMobile? Great!
You just made fisher the happiest man alive 😁 thanks Hugh. Love from Bangladesh ❤️❤️
So awesome Hugh. I tinker with phone repair and your videos are my go to for doing a quality job.
Good on ya, mate! Seeing Mr. Fisher's phone back up and running after what happened has made me happy. Everything is right with the world!!!...Ok, maybe not, but YOU DID GOOD!!! Thanks very much!
I was looking forward to this video when MrMobile mentioned he got his razr repaired by you! I thought "who else but Hugh?" Lol excellent work as always. If my razr ever breaks I'll likely come back to this.

I recently re-watched the video where he talked about sending it to you for repairs, been waiting for this video! 🔥
Makes my day when my two favorite KZreadrs collab and a beautiful device is fixed rather then thrown out. 🙌
Nice restore 👍🏼
Well done Hugh! Another great video! A true professional 👍
Brilliant video. Nice to see a collaborative effort across the world !
U've got the big fish Jef.
This came out great! For a second I was expecting to hear they sent you a display from a 2006 Razr 😁
Recently found your channel. Really Really like the video's! Keep up the great work. I cannot imagine HOW you keep all the screws and parts in sequence!!
This is good way of improvising in repairing.Good work Hugh.
Awesome job on a very unique repair in many ways from the phone itself to the parts supply chain. I can understand his liking for the phone that mimics a Star Trek communicator. 👍👍
YOOOO THIS IS ONE CROSSOVER I WOULDN'T EXPECT
Really satisfying to watch hopeless devices getting fixed to tip top shape! Great job!
It’s funny because I remember watching his video where he dropped the phone, and watching how happy he got as he got the phone back literally brand new is just so great. Love to see it.
I like how MrMobile's part of the video is still MrMobile's style.
And we are done It's like music to my ears
Great video as always Hugh!
Brands- we can't repair ur device. Go for a total replacement. Hugh- Did anyone say repair.. 😅😅

What a great video showing big manufacturers nothing is impossible fixing their devices at low cost
As a fellow Aussie it was great to hear the term “lacka bands” being used👍😉
Hint when dealing with shattered displays . Use some packing tape and cover the screen with it before trying to lift it

Never doubted your skills Hugh! Love the collab!
Been waiting for this to come out. Sounds very similar to the process Smoorez, a fellow Aussie phone repairer faced for 4G model. Nice to see you could get correct adhesive. To make the phone so thin, the front and black glass seam to be thin in comparison to most modern phones.
Finally!!! Was hoping a video would be posted after he mentioned you fixed it in one of his recent videos :)
I was so sad after he said you repaired his Razr. I looked out on your channel and "where is the video". Thankfully you did make one about it. Thanks for that
Yes another video! Love your uploads
Awesome as usual , very underrated channel ....
great video hugh was waiting for this video from a long time.. after Mr.mobile uploaded a video
Was waiting for this!
Such a cool collab - looking for more of these types of videos ;)
Yay!! Finally an Aussie! I wondered who fixed it and now the video showed up. Sub'ed straightaway.
Awesome work, Hugh. Been following you since you started. I hope to see more of collaboration with other of my face tech vloggers.
skillful work Mr You give your work its full due, thank you very much
Great vid thank you to you both 👍
That was a great restoration! Sorry to hear of all the trouble it took, but at least it's now working again and no longer destined for e-waste!
Too awesome. I follow both of you and your videos always are informative as well as fascinating 👍👍☺️☺️
I remember owning the original Motorola Razr that Michael was talking about. I loved that phone. Great video Hugh.
Great repair as always
That nice mobile defenders box for OEM parts. Gotta love it
