hello guys this is glenn from sydney cbd
repair center and today we have
something new for you a smart watch from
samsung the samsung
gear s3 classic
let's do this
[Music]
so we haven't told you what we're gonna
do right now but we're gonna replace the
battery on the samsung
gear s3 classic
this has been released way back
in 2016 so
the battery on this one has definitely
degraded and it's time for
a replacement
so if you're wondering what
types of battery the
samsung gear s3 needs we'll show you in
a bit
but this
thing
is very small and you'll see that the
components here are like the apple watch
that we have repaired last time
which also has some pretty nice
approach in solving the problem of small
size in terms of
the capacity of the case to handle
or to house
various components
and one thing that's unique with this
one is it's circular unlike some the
apple watch
which is kind of rectangular this one is
still circular it's kind of a
traditional shape for watches
and here we're going to open it by
unscrewing four screws which are very
very tight
and right here it's also very
tight because of the adhesives
and as you guessed
this one is kind of waterproof
but here david is kind of agitating the
adhesives with
some liquid
we trust him because he's like the
samsung expert in the shop
and right here we're
[Music]
now releasing the back cover this is the
case back as we
uh
as we related to watchmaking
and here are the internals
and the design of this one is kind of
like layers the top one is immediately
the board
and there's a connector here
we're gonna release it so that we can
lift this first layer up
and then underneath that is the battery
but the battery is
also
held on by the by adhesives just to keep
it from moving around
it's just kind of
a good thing
because you don't want your battery
moving around and
kind of puncturing itself with the
capacitors inside and here it took us
really
a long time to scrape the adhesive off
but we have to do it
incrementally
and here is the battery
and this is the replacement battery
it's amazing that we can still get some
replacement batteries for
uh devices released way back in 2016
and we're gonna put some uh double-sided
tape
to also held it securely inside the
phone so
some
pads for the connectors
you don't want to ruin this part
and for those of you who are wondering
if you can diy your own
uh battery replacement for your galaxy
or your samsung gear s3 classic then
we may urge you to we strongly urge you
to seek
professional help from technicians
although you have some
experience tinkering around with
electronics but this one is kind of
really
tricky
due to the complicate complex
structure of the
device and just by looking at this one
you can see that the battery is kind of
connected underneath the main board
which is not really accessible if you
don't have the experience and the
dexterity like david has here
so we're gonna show you the tedious
process
of
reinstalling the electronics in the
board and of course the connectors
so we're just going to press it in
secure the battery
and connect the
flat connectors
on the board
and that's it
we're gonna try to
cover it up this is the contact points
for the charger
and we're just gonna temporarily close
it and test it with a
charger
see if the battery is being detected and
being charged
still uses micro usb
[Music]
which is telling
us the device is kind of
kind of old
but still usable
and it's working 50 battery
and we're gonna
properly reassemble the whole thing and
it will be ready for the client
put all the screws in
this one
the case back
we have to make do without the adhesive
press it in
samsung really did a great job in
designing this one
once you've
uh installed all everything it will just
look like a garmin or a swoon toe
uh smartwatch
or even a traditional watch with the
metal
uh casing
so we're gonna reinstall all the
screws we have to do this
really tight because this came
really tight
from the shop
and if you don't have screws
screwdrivers that
monitors the torque then you should have
a proper technician or a professional
technician to look it
for you
we're going to reattach the wristbands
and we're done
final testing
and
voila
a successful full battery replacement
for a samsung gear s3 classic
