WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.680 The right to repair movement is moving full speed ahead and iFixit and Nokia are making sure of it 00:00:05.680 --> 00:00:11.460 by working together to make the G22 a fully repairable phone, kind of. 00:00:11.460 --> 00:00:15.120 And at least it's easier to repair. So we're gonna see if I can do some repairs. 00:00:15.120 --> 00:00:18.920 I asked logistics to break some part of the phone to see if I can figure out what it is 00:00:18.920 --> 00:00:22.560 and see if I can actually fix it with the parts provided from iFixit. 00:00:22.560 --> 00:00:26.320 Let's start with the unboxing here. I do like the just plain cardboard look. 00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:30.280 It's pretty slick. You got the iFixit logo on the back there so you know it's gonna be very repairable. 00:00:30.280 --> 00:00:34.080 And then inside here, we have the phone. 00:00:34.080 --> 00:00:38.040 I don't know what's wrong with it. I can't tell. Let's see what else is in the box though. 00:00:38.040 --> 00:00:42.120 In the box we have our manual, a sim popper, 00:00:42.120 --> 00:00:47.120 and just a USB C2C cable, three footer. 00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:51.000 One thing I actually just noticed is the lack of plastic is pretty darn nice. 00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:55.200 It's all just cardboard and paper and I'm sure it's even recycled paper 00:00:55.200 --> 00:01:00.040 but I cannot confirm that. Look at the phone itself. It comes with a, well I guess this is plastic, 00:01:00.040 --> 00:01:04.120 this little plastic cheap case that comes with a lot of the budget phones. 00:01:04.120 --> 00:01:08.040 Nice to have, keep your phone safe. Nice. 00:01:08.040 --> 00:01:12.360 Wow, this is actually a big phone. I don't know, I kind of just assumed, maybe I just associate Nokia with small phones 00:01:12.360 --> 00:01:18.800 ever since they're little bricky kind of phones but this is a 6.5 inch 720p display. 00:01:18.800 --> 00:01:24.800 It is 90 Hertz which is nice but 720p on such a big screen is a little bit disappointing 00:01:24.800 --> 00:01:29.040 but we'll see more when we get it all turned on. Other than that, it is a plastic body 00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:34.200 so it's got the plastic ridges. It's Corning Gorilla Glass 3 which is a bit older 00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:40.120 but maybe keeps the cost down and then the back is just a 100% recycled plastic back. 00:01:40.120 --> 00:01:43.240 I like the color, it's a blue and also comes in a gray. 00:01:43.240 --> 00:01:46.360 It's pretty good though. I actually usually prefer a black phone. This is a nice, nice blue. 00:01:46.360 --> 00:01:49.680 I like the contrast between the ridges on the sides 00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:54.000 and the blue, like a dark water blue, it's nice. 00:01:54.000 --> 00:01:57.680 But you can't tell, it's pretty fingerprinty. 00:01:57.680 --> 00:02:00.800 I swear I washed my hands, I swear. 00:02:00.800 --> 00:02:06.800 Let's take a look at the rest of the phone. On the right side of the phone here we have our power button and fingerprint scanner combo, 00:02:06.800 --> 00:02:10.760 a volume rocker. On the top we got absolutely nothing, 00:02:10.760 --> 00:02:14.240 no mics or anything. On the left side we have our SIM tray 00:02:14.240 --> 00:02:17.240 and I should open that up because I believe this has an SD card slot. 00:02:18.680 --> 00:02:22.720 Yeah, so we have our SIM card, SD card combo 00:02:22.720 --> 00:02:25.720 which is great so you can put up to a terabyte, 00:02:25.720 --> 00:02:29.240 two terabytes. It actually can be limited by software in the phone 00:02:29.240 --> 00:02:33.000 which is odd. On the bottom here, I'm liking what I'm seeing. 00:02:33.000 --> 00:02:36.680 We have a headphone jack. We've got a mic hole, we've got USB-C 00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:41.480 and we've got speakers. So this has got everything you need. 00:02:41.480 --> 00:02:45.320 Great, you can use one cable for your switch, your laptop, your phone. 00:02:45.320 --> 00:02:50.080 You got your microphone for recording stuff and things. But yeah, the headphone jack is great to see it. 00:02:50.080 --> 00:02:55.240 It's something that's missing in many high-end phones. It appears in a lot of budget phones which is odd 00:02:55.240 --> 00:03:00.560 but we'll take these dubs. And then on the back we have our triple camera setup. 00:03:00.560 --> 00:03:05.240 So we have a 50 megapixel main camera, a two megapixel depth camera 00:03:05.240 --> 00:03:10.880 and a two megapixel macro camera. So you pretty much have one camera. 00:03:10.880 --> 00:03:15.880 You don't really use the depth camera. Usually cameras will use it to get faster focus, 00:03:15.880 --> 00:03:20.120 maybe a bit more contrast. But you know, flagships don't use a depth camera 00:03:20.160 --> 00:03:24.320 that's not really all that necessary. And then a macro camera, I mean, 00:03:24.320 --> 00:03:28.000 we've seen a few in the past that are pretty darn trash but we'll try it again and see if it's any good. 00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:32.320 And then of course we have our flash here. Oh, it's not just a 50 megapixel camera. 00:03:32.320 --> 00:03:37.560 It's a 50 megapixel AI camera. Whoa. 00:03:37.560 --> 00:03:41.680 And then just a tasteful Nokia. Okay, I should acknowledge this now. 00:03:41.680 --> 00:03:46.280 Is it Nokia or Nokia? I've got no, I, no Kia. 00:03:46.280 --> 00:03:50.880 I've, hmm, we'll workshop it. What's interesting is that it is landscape. 00:03:50.880 --> 00:03:55.040 Usually it's vertical because that's how you hold it for most of the time. But now if you're taking pictures, 00:03:55.040 --> 00:03:58.240 seeing that will make anybody smile. Well, I can't hold it in any longer. 00:03:58.240 --> 00:04:02.520 There does seem to be an issue with this front screen. It looks like somebody dropped it. 00:04:02.520 --> 00:04:05.560 I thought I asked logistics to break this phone, not Linus. 00:04:05.560 --> 00:04:10.680 So before we get everything turned on, let's see if I can fix this. 00:04:10.680 --> 00:04:14.600 I am not handy at all. So Nokia and I fix it claim 00:04:14.600 --> 00:04:19.200 that this is an easier to repair device. So you don't need any crazy tools. 00:04:19.200 --> 00:04:23.400 And they should be able to do most everything with just a screwdriver and the kind of guitar pick lift 00:04:23.400 --> 00:04:27.840 to get the back of the screen off. So on their store, they actually have a few options to buy 00:04:27.840 --> 00:04:31.760 straight from my fix it. So they have the back glass, the screen, 00:04:31.760 --> 00:04:35.880 a charge port and the battery. So kind of the most common things to go wrong. 00:04:35.880 --> 00:04:38.960 And obviously we are gonna need to do the screen, 00:04:38.960 --> 00:04:42.920 which might be the hardest or at least the most complicated to get to 00:04:42.920 --> 00:04:46.360 because we're gonna take apart most of the phone to get there. I might need to call Van, we'll see. 00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:49.640 So to get myself a little bit of help though, I'm gonna pull up by fix its guide on the repair 00:04:49.640 --> 00:04:53.080 to make sure I don't mess anything up because I don't even really know 00:04:53.080 --> 00:04:58.640 the first step of getting into the phone here. All right, step one, we gotta eject the SIM tray. 00:04:58.640 --> 00:05:02.760 Get that out of there. Oh, that's cool. So actually have like a little, 00:05:02.760 --> 00:05:06.640 I don't know if you will see it. There's a little notch inside of this 00:05:06.640 --> 00:05:10.320 where you put the pick. Slide it down the phone. 00:05:10.320 --> 00:05:16.240 We got this. Come on now. Oh, but I gotta be careful 00:05:16.360 --> 00:05:20.640 because there's a little ribbon here. Yeah, if this doesn't work, the video's very short. 00:05:20.640 --> 00:05:25.280 There's a big warning. It's like, do not puncture the battery. 00:05:25.280 --> 00:05:30.120 I'll show you. So I said the fingerprint scanner and the motherboard frame at least so far 00:05:30.120 --> 00:05:33.920 are using the same type of screws. That's one less thing to have to worry about mixing up, 00:05:33.920 --> 00:05:37.520 but we'll see how many screws there are after getting all this out. 00:05:37.520 --> 00:05:42.720 Now I've seen things break from ripping them off contact, so I wanna be really careful here. 00:05:42.720 --> 00:05:46.760 Oh, that was easy. So far, this is a lot easier than I anticipated. 00:05:46.760 --> 00:05:51.040 Now we're going to unfasten the loudspeaker, which is all these bottom screws, 00:05:51.040 --> 00:05:55.920 which when I just read, should be the same length as every other screw so far, 00:05:55.920 --> 00:05:57.000 which is nice. 00:05:58.960 --> 00:06:03.720 It is, huh. So that's what the instead of a phone looks like. 00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:09.040 Had no idea. And now we have our first different sized screw, 00:06:09.040 --> 00:06:13.080 which is for the charging port. So we're gonna take away this little guy. 00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:16.840 This one's only 2.8 millimeters, just a small boy, 00:06:16.840 --> 00:06:22.400 unfastening the motherboard. And these are more of the different sized ones, 00:06:22.400 --> 00:06:26.560 but luckily still the same size as that charging port screw. 00:06:26.560 --> 00:06:31.120 And it's nice that the smaller screws are a different color from the rest. So it's really easy to tell. 00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:34.520 All right, this is the main brain of the phone. 00:06:34.520 --> 00:06:37.360 Crazy. Oh my God, how many steps are there? 00:06:38.360 --> 00:06:43.440 You didn't look before. No. I did say though, I'm pretty nervous 00:06:43.440 --> 00:06:47.400 because I don't fix stuff. The images are super helpful. 00:06:47.400 --> 00:06:49.600 Really easy to see what you're supposed to do next. 00:06:50.880 --> 00:06:55.160 All right, this is what the new screen looks like. And it looks like it does not have that camera bracket. 00:06:55.160 --> 00:06:58.800 So we're gonna need to take it out. Now this one has a scary warning. 00:06:58.800 --> 00:07:02.840 To be, we're loosening the battery tabs and it's making very sure you're aware 00:07:02.840 --> 00:07:06.240 that you could cause a fire or leak dangerous chemicals. 00:07:07.840 --> 00:07:11.280 It is definitely glued in there, which is a little disappointing. 00:07:13.040 --> 00:07:18.040 All right, so I just gotta put the new battery and the new screen and pretty much do everything in reverse. 00:07:18.040 --> 00:07:23.120 But one notice I don't like is that, compare the new assembly to the original part. 00:07:23.120 --> 00:07:26.840 You may need to transfer remaining components before you install it. 00:07:26.840 --> 00:07:33.720 One of the annoying things about having to reuse so many parts is that like this foam pad is mangled. 00:07:34.360 --> 00:07:38.640 I hope that's not super important for that piece of the camera 00:07:38.640 --> 00:07:42.560 that now is mangled. The power button and volume button ribbon 00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:46.080 that they had me take off to reuse is actually already on this piece. 00:07:46.080 --> 00:07:51.920 I feel like this bracket and foam piece should have also been on there, but it seems like maybe some sets might. 00:07:51.920 --> 00:07:56.240 I don't know why everyone wouldn't though. I don't think it's kind of annoying. I got to the part to put in the motherboard 00:07:56.240 --> 00:08:00.760 and it's telling me to reapply thermal paste to the squares where it says to do so. 00:08:00.760 --> 00:08:04.520 But I don't necessarily have thermal paste. Like I work at LTT, obviously I'll just walk 00:08:04.520 --> 00:08:07.840 and go get some, but when I'm at home or if I didn't work here, 00:08:07.840 --> 00:08:11.280 I'd have to go out and buy it now. And it's actually not listed 00:08:11.280 --> 00:08:15.240 in the what you need section. There's somewhere, there's an optional tape, 00:08:15.240 --> 00:08:18.740 but there's no thermal paste or anything in there. Taking apart is a hard part. 00:08:18.740 --> 00:08:23.200 Putting back together is easy. Damn! 00:08:23.200 --> 00:08:28.000 From Linus-ified to brand new. 00:08:28.000 --> 00:08:31.460 All right, it might look a lot better and like Linus hasn't gotten ahold of it, 00:08:31.460 --> 00:08:37.560 but we got to make sure it turns on. This is IP52, which is dust and water resistant, 00:08:38.120 --> 00:08:42.120 it's just rain resistant, so we find the rain, but after doing a repair, 00:08:42.120 --> 00:08:45.680 I might be a little bit hesitant to think it still is. Like I said, I know there are some parts 00:08:45.680 --> 00:08:51.760 that look a little bit different than before, but with just rain resistance, it's probably fine. 00:08:51.760 --> 00:08:55.800 Look at that, it turns on. I did it! 00:08:55.800 --> 00:08:59.040 You know, that wasn't too bad. I feel like the repair process was a little scary, 00:08:59.040 --> 00:09:03.320 but if you've done any repairs whatsoever before, you're probably fine. 00:09:03.320 --> 00:09:07.920 All right, let's check out what this has inside for specs. It's interesting to see. 00:09:07.920 --> 00:09:12.040 Come on, man. This isn't any of you. Oh, that button definitely don't press no more. 00:09:12.040 --> 00:09:16.480 Oh, no. No, the volume rocker. 00:09:16.480 --> 00:09:21.200 I can only turn it up. It looks like I might've gotten the volume rocker wrong, 00:09:21.200 --> 00:09:26.240 which is interesting, because that's actually one I didn't have to do. It can't pre-done, but the volume down 00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:31.320 does not work anymore. I can only do volume up. But it's also interesting to see what apps come pre-installed on this. 00:09:31.320 --> 00:09:35.560 So some of these are from Labs, but like Booking.com, ExpressVPN, 00:09:35.560 --> 00:09:39.240 those definitely are not ones that we load on. It's not like a ton of bloatware, 00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:42.400 but it is something to be aware of. It does have some extra goo thrown in. 00:09:42.400 --> 00:09:47.280 All right, so for specs, we have 128 gigs of storage, which again is expandable via microSD. 00:09:47.280 --> 00:09:51.080 And then it has four gigs of RAM, which is definitely not a lot. 00:09:51.080 --> 00:09:55.840 It might be something that limits this phone for maybe getting later Android versions. 00:09:55.840 --> 00:09:58.880 They do promise two years of major OS updates 00:09:58.880 --> 00:10:02.040 and then three years of monthly security updates, which is nice to see. 00:10:02.040 --> 00:10:06.920 But the fact that this is starting on 12, it doesn't seem like it bodes well for that, 00:10:06.920 --> 00:10:12.080 but I'm not 100% sure. And then as for SOC, it's using the Unisoc T606, 00:10:12.080 --> 00:10:15.760 which is definitely a low-end chip. 00:10:15.760 --> 00:10:19.800 We're gonna talk about performance a little bit here, but it is already a couple of years old 00:10:19.800 --> 00:10:23.000 and it was pretty low-end at the time. What this might have, 00:10:23.000 --> 00:10:26.160 I mean, we can only turn the volume up. So we may as well try doing some crab rave 00:10:26.160 --> 00:10:31.120 and checking out what the screen looks like. Yeah, that definitely doesn't sound good. 00:10:31.120 --> 00:10:35.360 It's definitely only coming out of the right time, using the earpiece speaker as a left channel, even faintly. 00:10:35.360 --> 00:10:38.680 It just doesn't really have any details on how many bass or anything like that. 00:10:38.680 --> 00:10:41.720 And then the screen itself, it's a little rough. It does not look great. 00:10:41.720 --> 00:10:46.440 There's some ghosting, even when the crabs are moving back and forth, or even when I was just swiping to get to the video. 00:10:46.440 --> 00:10:49.440 It did not look good. There was a lot of ghosting, even at this 90 Hertz. 00:10:49.440 --> 00:10:53.200 But I don't watch a ton on my phone. If you're somebody who actually really cares 00:10:53.200 --> 00:10:56.200 about what your content looks like, or you watch a lot of videos on your phone, you're gonna be like, 00:10:56.240 --> 00:10:59.600 you actually really cares about what your content looks like, or you watch a lot on your phone. 00:10:59.600 --> 00:11:03.720 The screen's not that great. And if you like listening to music, the speaker's not that great. 00:11:03.720 --> 00:11:08.640 Let's try out the cameras though. It's a God High Hopes, 50 megapixel AI camera. 00:11:08.640 --> 00:11:12.120 That's crazy. All right, I went outside and took some photos, 00:11:12.120 --> 00:11:17.480 and let's see how they turned out. This first photo I took in the 50 megapixel mode, 00:11:17.480 --> 00:11:21.040 and it looks okay. It's not really loading up the full resolution 00:11:21.040 --> 00:11:24.160 until you zoom in, which is interesting. And then it kind of just fades back out 00:11:24.160 --> 00:11:28.800 until you zoom in again, which means that the photo kind of always looks blurry. 00:11:28.800 --> 00:11:32.720 But the colors are pretty good. Like it pops a lot, which is surprising. 00:11:32.720 --> 00:11:35.760 Moving over to this photo of the motorcycle, 00:11:35.760 --> 00:11:39.080 it definitely has an HDR effect where it seems like software is trying 00:11:39.080 --> 00:11:42.560 to kind of brighten up what it thinks should be bright and darken what it thinks should be darkened. 00:11:42.560 --> 00:11:46.200 But again, I actually don't think it's too bad. 00:11:46.200 --> 00:11:49.520 Again, I wouldn't want to post this anywhere. 00:11:49.520 --> 00:11:53.800 But for a quick text, it'd be fine. Now for the one with it turned off, 00:11:53.800 --> 00:11:57.600 I actually like the color a bit better. It's more contrasty. 00:11:57.600 --> 00:12:00.640 So maybe you just want a full bright photo 00:12:00.640 --> 00:12:03.960 and everything to be really even, but this would be a 12 megapixel photo. 00:12:03.960 --> 00:12:09.800 So it's just taking those 50 megapixels and bending down. And yeah, I think it looks pretty decent actually. 00:12:09.800 --> 00:12:12.040 Whoa, there's Dan. Dan, say hi. 00:12:14.880 --> 00:12:18.680 Well, let's try the macro camera. We'll use our little friend here. 00:12:18.680 --> 00:12:22.960 Let's get the lowest quality photo of this little guy. Right away, this has the same issue 00:12:22.960 --> 00:12:27.280 as the unit hurts Luna and some of the other budget phones. It doesn't tell you what four centimeters is. 00:12:27.280 --> 00:12:31.040 And I don't know. I do like that when you get the phone close to an object in the normal shooting mode, 00:12:31.040 --> 00:12:34.600 it alerts you to change to the macro mode. As for photo, yeah, I mean, 00:12:34.600 --> 00:12:39.600 it looks like every single macro camera, which is not good. It's very yellowy. 00:12:39.600 --> 00:12:43.280 The focus is okay, but the quality of the photo 00:12:43.280 --> 00:12:48.080 is two megapixels, which means it is bad. On the front here, we have an eight megapixel camera. 00:12:48.080 --> 00:12:51.400 I've got high hopes. Eight is a good number. 00:12:51.400 --> 00:12:56.240 Does it have any modes on? It does. Oh, you can change the shape of bokeh. 00:12:56.240 --> 00:13:00.800 That's cool. Oh, interesting. So that's not beauty modes. 00:13:00.800 --> 00:13:03.840 It's changing how intense the shape of the bokeh 00:13:03.840 --> 00:13:08.200 is in these different shapes. I don't know why all of them are turned on, 00:13:08.200 --> 00:13:11.240 but I want butterflies and I want it to be maximum. 00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:16.600 I'll tell you for the photo, it actually doesn't look bad. The color is a little off. 00:13:16.600 --> 00:13:23.180 I don't know. There's just something about, it looks pretty washed out, but the sharpness, not too bad for eight megapixels. 00:13:23.180 --> 00:13:26.180 I don't know. Overall, I don't think I'd actually, again, want to share this photo of me, 00:13:26.180 --> 00:13:29.220 but it's not bad if my mom said, are you alive? 00:13:29.220 --> 00:13:33.300 Well, let's check out the video. I've got high hopes for that. Yeah, this video looks really bad. 00:13:33.300 --> 00:13:37.180 Hey, the microphone works. How does it sound? 00:13:37.180 --> 00:13:40.780 I know, but I'm just proving it to you that it does not sound good. 00:13:40.780 --> 00:13:44.900 Again, the colors really, really look off in the video. 00:13:45.860 --> 00:13:48.900 Just looks like I'm looking through a bottle 00:13:48.900 --> 00:13:53.100 where the lenses are very dirty, but I promise you, I did not touch them with my fingers. 00:13:53.100 --> 00:13:56.860 It just looks a little rough. One thing I've read to try out is the fingerprint scanner. 00:13:56.860 --> 00:13:58.020 So let's try that out. 00:14:00.060 --> 00:14:05.100 Hey, that's pretty quick. One thing I haven't mentioned, even just booting into this, is that it does have quite a bit of a chin and forehead. 00:14:05.100 --> 00:14:09.820 This is quite a bit of a forehead considering that there's also a cutout for the notch. 00:14:09.820 --> 00:14:13.660 So we sent the phone over to lab to get tested and the results are pretty unimpressive. 00:14:13.660 --> 00:14:17.020 Framing it in Wii on Dolphin, where we'll get a median of 25 FPS 00:14:17.020 --> 00:14:22.700 with a 1% low of 22 FPS. On Genshin Impact, we had a median of nine FPS. 00:14:22.700 --> 00:14:25.700 In Call of Duty Mobile, we got 21 FPS. 00:14:25.700 --> 00:14:29.780 And let me tell you, as somebody who's actually just playing the game, it feels rough. 00:14:29.780 --> 00:14:33.700 Of course, one thing to note is that these are pretty challenging games to run, 00:14:33.700 --> 00:14:38.460 but even though this is a budget phone, if you're buying a phone in 2023, 00:14:38.460 --> 00:14:43.380 you'd hope you'd be able to play games from what, 2019? 00:14:43.380 --> 00:14:47.220 And it can't do that very well. We also had them check out the battery life, 00:14:47.220 --> 00:14:52.980 and that was another mixed bag. So for longevity, which is watching YouTube videos, 00:14:52.980 --> 00:14:59.260 streaming on Wi-Fi at about 50% brightness, you will get 18 hours of battery life, which is okay. 00:14:59.260 --> 00:15:03.460 When compared to flagships, it's not great, but again, this is a phone that's quite a bit smaller. 00:15:03.460 --> 00:15:09.060 But when you look at it the other way, this is a budget phone with a budget SOC 00:15:09.060 --> 00:15:12.780 and a 5,050 milliamp hour battery. 00:15:12.780 --> 00:15:17.180 They claim it gets up to three days of battery, which is of course not using it consistently that whole time, 00:15:17.180 --> 00:15:20.660 but to get one of the lowest results that we've actually tested so far, 00:15:20.660 --> 00:15:26.180 when you have such a big battery and an SOC that should be just sipping power, 00:15:26.180 --> 00:15:30.080 I do expect a bit better. For the battery stress test, 00:15:30.080 --> 00:15:36.020 the number does look pretty impressive, 11.1 hours at max CPU and GPU, 00:15:36.020 --> 00:15:40.780 but the stress test actually failed miserably. 00:15:40.780 --> 00:15:45.780 I say that because it got 0.7 frames a second. 00:15:45.900 --> 00:15:50.500 It wasn't even actually able to perform well enough for long enough to even drain the battery. 00:15:50.500 --> 00:15:55.700 It just got throttled and struggled so much that it never got to its full potential. 00:15:55.700 --> 00:16:00.820 Now you might be saying, I don't do a ton of gaming. I just use apps on my phone like Instagram 00:16:00.820 --> 00:16:06.500 or whatever like that. And we tested app launching as well and the numbers were equally unimpressive. 00:16:06.500 --> 00:16:09.940 Compared to flagships that we've tested previously, 00:16:09.940 --> 00:16:13.780 this launches apps horrifically slowly 00:16:13.780 --> 00:16:18.780 with Instagram cold launching at eight and a half seconds. 00:16:18.940 --> 00:16:23.580 What is nice though is that the phone does get nice and bright at 500 nits brightness. 00:16:23.580 --> 00:16:28.180 It's got that going for it, though our Labs did again kind of confirm what I was saying 00:16:28.180 --> 00:16:32.620 that there is quite a bad ghosting issue and that the response times are very poor. 00:16:32.620 --> 00:16:36.140 So what does this cost? 00:16:36.140 --> 00:16:39.560 For a phone that's very repairable and engineered as such, 00:16:39.560 --> 00:16:46.600 but has a big battery, but also has pretty low tier grill glass and SOC. 00:16:46.760 --> 00:16:51.320 It's unavailable everywhere, but it does cost 200 euros, 00:16:51.320 --> 00:16:57.040 which is like 220 US dollars. And that seems like it should be cheap for a phone. 00:16:57.040 --> 00:17:00.120 But again, the performance just really wasn't there 00:17:00.120 --> 00:17:04.240 and the cameras weren't that great. Labs actually had mentioned that the SOC 00:17:04.240 --> 00:17:08.520 and that should be something in a $99 phone, not a $200 phone. 00:17:08.520 --> 00:17:13.320 $220 doesn't sound like a lot, but when you think about the other phones you can get, 00:17:13.320 --> 00:17:16.960 you can get a used iPhone XR or eight or SE 00:17:16.960 --> 00:17:20.640 at around that price. You can get a lot of the A series Samsung's 00:17:20.640 --> 00:17:24.160 from that round that price. You can get Motorola's Moto G. 00:17:24.160 --> 00:17:27.360 There are quite a few options from brands that I don't want to offend Nokia, 00:17:27.360 --> 00:17:30.840 but a little bit more relevant or maybe has a bit more staying power. 00:17:30.840 --> 00:17:34.880 Because I mean, yeah, you could fix this yourself and keep it, you know, lasting you for years 00:17:34.880 --> 00:17:40.340 and years and years, but if the OS is at a date and the SOC's running slow from the day you get it, 00:17:40.340 --> 00:17:45.420 are you really going to want to use it for that long? The nice thing is that the parts aren't too expensive. 00:17:45.420 --> 00:17:50.180 The screen's the most expensive part at $55, with the others being $30 and $25. 00:17:50.180 --> 00:17:54.380 So it's not like it's going to cost you a whole lot to do these repairs, but again, 00:17:54.380 --> 00:17:58.700 I don't know if it's really all that worth it. But what do you think? I'm totally okay being wrong. 00:17:58.700 --> 00:18:03.940 Let me know if this is a phone that you see yourself buying and maybe even how long you think you could go using it. 00:18:03.940 --> 00:18:09.180 I'm very curious as somebody who used a lot of phones that are notoriously hard to repair.
