The galaxy S8 has aged really well. Looks so awesome even now, compared to other phones

Love the Samsung repairs with the curved screens! Good video Hugh ♥️
Pretty cool! I love your videos and I wanted to say that today is very rare to see a s8 on it's original software.
I changed my back to my S10e and S7 Edge ... and the speaker to my S9 because of you, thank you very much, you do a very good job, keep it up!
Good to see you use the heating machine now that you got the gloves.
Keep up the good work! Always quality content :)
I've been watching you for around 6 months and just realised I'm not subscribed have now and love the videos man
gonna spend the last 2 hours of my night watching these videos so my sleep schedule isn’t even worse than it already is
I like to see your videos more when you upload them at midnight because it gives a more relaxing vibe to the video and feels great
I wish your kind of genuine service was available in our city 😭😭 I've been using my S8+ for a year with a crack screen, I've always wanted to change it but services here are so shady, either overpricing or stealing internal parts without us knowing it 😭😭😭😭
I really recommend you look into taking up board repair! The more people who do it, the better!
Wish I could have my S8+ fixed like this. Great video as usual.
Best channel in the community, love you videos
Very clear explanation and very satisfying process 😆😆
One of the only elite KZread channels left
Love your videos!! You are such an inspiration!
Love every video you make!
I love your videos, especially these Samsung ones!
I always watch his videos to help me with my repairs like my Galaxy S7 edge
*Thanks Hugh for uploading in night for me*
Woke up watching your video😍😍
2:38 effortlessly Me: that looks tough
My inspiration for repairing my own damage phone 🤘
Who watches Hughes videos and barely knows what’s happening ps: I love your videos keep it up man 👍👍👍👍😃😃😃
2am from me. I love yours videos Hugh jeffreys
I am still using this phone and its working like a charm
I have learnt how to fix mine so now I will buy my tools and do it.
I remember getting a damaged s8 plus for $165 then paying $350 for SIM card tray, new screen, battery, and back glass for the phone. Wasted quite a bit of money.

Cheaper than buying a new one!
For these samsung phones it is extremely important if you are transferring around parts, you must have the exact same variant on both (storage option can be different). Something like a Galaxy S4 or S5 has like half a dozen variants and mix and matching between them will give you anything from signal issues to just flat out not fitting right. This is ESPECIALLY important in the likes of US and China where there are a bunch of carrier specific variants!
my fav channel🤩
I had orchid grey S8 now I come to realize that the black color was so much better
I am using s8 for 3 years already and it fell it was in watter ,dirt and filled with apps and files and always responsive . GG Samsung.
It's always nice to see a new huge referees vdeos
Also pls feature repair for Galaxy Note9 broken screen and fingerprint sensor in the future. I will really look forward for that. Thanks Hugh Jeffreys and love lots from the Philippines. 😘
Him: having everything he need like other screens, new back of the s8. Me: having nothing, how come the 30 dollar after spending 300 euros

Always my favorite device s8
My friend has an s8 with a bad camera for $40 and I was going to buy it and swap the board. Thanks for showing me how to do exactly that, because I think it's a motherboard issue as the camera has already been replaced.
If you have a shattered screen place packing tape over the screen and the suction cup works way better
Use clear shipping tape on the front to get better seal with your suction cup.
A tip may be to tape over the cracks. The suction cup should stick better.
Best video ever!
AND...we're done. Nice video as always.
The best tool I've found for taking the back of the S8 is the corner of a scraper blade
Man, I wish you could repair my S8 too. Haha

Use a metal tool to make the initial insertion, makes it way easier

@༷ haha it seems you know where I live
A simple fix for the suction cup problem is to put tape or a screen protector on the screen
I just got a heat plate myself. Personally, I find that 100°C for 5 minutes works well. I can then stick a utility knife between the glass and then slip in a playing card. Works great so far.
I would love to see micro soldering videos
Woah nice video!
Love the vids
$30? Damn. I was just quoted over $100 to replace my cracked S8 display!

I suggest you do some repairs on an iphone 6 s plus
Hey, I saw your videos about restoring old macbooks. Can you make a video about cleaning an old keyboard and what to do if you break a key and how to fix it. Sorry for my English. btw nice video :)

For me Android repairs are more interesting than iPhone repairs, thanks Hugh for making them👍

Android is much more diverse, so I agree.

I always find using an isesamo works much better than suction cup. Just obviously need to be mode careful not to scratch the frame of the phone
You should also upload motherboard repair videos.
Hey Hugh,awesome stuff...do you ever resell some of those fixed phones,would love to purchase this s8 in particular...:)
i remember when this came out damn
If you want to get the backpanels easly off. Try it with a aluminum fish and a plastic fish, first insert the aluminum fish a bit so you can get the plastic fish under it. If you have it in you can remove the aluminum fish and go around with the plastic fish. Just go easy if you go too hard the backpanel will shatter. Make sure to pre heat it too.

That’s quite a _Frankenstein_ of a phone!
I have a galaxy s8 with a cracked front glass, but the display is still working fine. I think a bricked s8 doner would be fine if i would just transfer the internals to it. Than getting it reglassed or new panels.
You should make a video on fixing iPhone touch id/home button
I think the S8 is one of the best looking Samsung phones
Hugh I just like your videos
Please make only glass repair!
Tip heat it at 70 C for 8 min use 90 percent alcohol or side adhesive. Don’t use a spunger it doesn’t help . Use a nice clean isesamo and you won’t break the glass
I'd be worried about the battery, leaving the phone on the hot plate at 120⁰.
Can you upload a video about how to pass activation lock
My man is blowing up

It's quite curious: for the whole video I look forward to hearing the iconic "...and we're done!" at 7:17 but then I dread hearing "...and on that note..." less than a minute later since it means the video is going to end XD
How are you getting on with the micro-soldering? Any videos soon?
Seeing refurbishment stickers means one thing for me: I think someone has attempted, at the very least, a board-level repair. I don't know if they were successful or not.
You can try to update through smart switch
hey hugh jsut saying that a heat gun can also heat up the phone but just really unevenly i think the heat plate would work better
0:40 It's like the seller knew
Where do you find all these broken/for parts devices? In the US, Swappa used to have a "Boneyard" for damaged devices but that's long gone.
