Hello everyone, today I show you how to disassemble iPhone 8 Plus and replace camera module.
To disassemble the iPhone 8 Plus you need the following tools:
• Screwdriver set • Plastic mediator

If you cannot separate using a mediator, you can take a plastic card.
Open the display to the right side like a book.
Unscrew 4 screws and remove the metal panel.

screws in the order of the disassembly process, because all screws are of different sizes
and it is enough just to get confused during assembly.

Unscrew 2 more screws and remove the metal panel.
