I started repairing iPhones when Covid-19 came. I was locked home and with a lot of free time in hand I had to something.
Replacing screens , batteries, restoring or modifying broken devices is now a hobby .
I am amateur in all this but i enjoy doing it!

    There are more factors not only the cycle count , if the battery can still hold charge bo need to replace it . The battery in the video had to be replaced as it holds 30 min max

    @@BalkansWay I have a very old MBP that I hacked to update to a newer OS (the first one with dark mode I think) but it's super slow I have been wanting to try and install an SSD but not sure how much it can speed up things when it's on a Core Duo. So I was thinking either trying Linux or gut it completely and try installing internals from the latest intel I can find for cheap... but I've never done jobs like that so not sure if I would manage to fit it in, despite the internals of newer macs are very compact and there should be space. I have no idea how to use the ports though, which would also be slower because old USB... I can't find anyone doing anything like this, dunno if you have any idea/suggestions to point me in a good direction 😇

    @@unleashthedog a lot can be done ( i think ) and every small update you do will make it run better . But the question is is it worth it ? If you sum up the price of all the things you want to change, might as well buy newer model . However if you are like me and wanna do it just for the experience it might actually be cool . The older models can get even 2x hard drives if you take out the cd player . You might be wanna look up if someone is selling the entire motherboard with better cpu / graphics. And yes not a lot of people do it as the newer models just outperform all the upgrades you can do .
