HTC M8 Full Disassembly

HTC M8 Full Disassembly
After removing the SIM card and micro SD card slot, it was still useless. I could only try to remove the front panel of the handset by heating. It turned out that iFixit's guess was correct. After removing the handset panel, did you really see the screws? There is hope for disassembly. Note that there are also screws hidden behind the speaker panel below. Only after removing the screws here can we move on to the next step. After removing the screws, the back shell still cannot be removed. At this time, we can only hope for a crowbar. Be careful when prying. If you damage any parts, there is no hope. The disassembly went smoothly and no parts were damaged. Except for a flying wire on the back that spoiled the view, the overall look is good. The metal shielding area is very large. The total weight of the back cover is 27.5 grams, accounting for nearly 1/3 of the whole machine. The next thing to do is to remove various cables. A large number of shielding stickers caused some trouble for disassembly. The process of removing the motherboard is very painful. HTC's design undoubtedly increases the difficulty of repair. Start to remove the battery. There is a lot of double-sided tape fixed under the battery, which is quite troublesome to remove. The battery capacity is 2600mAh. HTC said that 100% of the power can last for 2 weeks, and even if there is 5% of the power left, it can last for 15 hours, thanks to the more powerful low-power sensor and proper optimization. By the way, I would like to add something that iFixit did not say. The battery is produced by Changzhou Shangyang Optoelectronics Co., Ltd., and it is purely made in China. Now let's start to remove the parts of the camera part. First, the vibrator. HTC actually put it next to the camera. The motherboard of the camera part is also fixed with double-sided tape. It's abominable! In the end, iFixit gave the HTC M8 a repairability index of only 2 (1 point is the most difficult to repair, 10 points is the easiest), which can be said to be very difficult to repair. If a component in your HTC M8 is broken, it is basically hopeless. iFixit's summary is as follows: 1. It is too difficult to disassemble the back shell unless you use violent means. 2. The battery is located below the motherboard. It is impossible to replace it yourself unless you are a master. 3. It is even more difficult to repair a broken screen. There is basically no solution. It is difficult to remove the screen from the front. 4. A lot of tape, glue and metal shielding make it difficult to replace many parts. 5. The quality is very good and the shell is very sturdy. In general, the workmanship of HTC M8 is obvious to all. It makes full use of all the space inside the body and can be said to be excellent. But the disadvantage of doing so is that the repairability index is greatly reduced. I don’t know how HTC after-sales will solve this problem. The all-metal shell is stronger than plastic, but it also brings headaches such as difficulty in removal. Maybe HTC did not think about allowing users to disassemble the phone freely when designing it. If there is a problem, you should still go to after-sales service. It is difficult for ordinary mobile phone repair shops to solve it.
