A very clear demonstration of exactly how to teardown this phone. Thank you. One thing I've had problems with is that after replacing the battery my 5G reception isnt as good as it was.
That's a very good video about s10 5g i still have one, it's an American g977u version with snapdragon..and it has a mysterious connector inside too but not in the same place..but just near that usb cable's connector in the motherboard...thank for video
Thanks! If I remember correctly, one of the mmWave 5G antenna for networks that use the mmWave 5G technology goes on that connector. So for example the Verizon version of this phone would have the mmWave 5G antenna connected there. This one that I had taken apart was an international variant.
Hello sir i hope you can read this, Is it possible that a technician will remove a 5g chip? Thats what i believe after a repair from a shop my phone doesnt have a 5g signal anymore it is only LTE no 4g and is is very slow. Please i need an answer please help
@@bojananicic4410 First, make sure your phone is compatible with the network you are trying to use it on, second make sure your sim card is not the problem and try a new sim card. If the problem still persists, you can disassemble your phone and make sure the top and bottom plastic covers with the light grey antenna lines running through them are seated properly in place and screwed down. Also make sure all flex cables and cables are attached and have not been disconnected.
@@PBKreviews first thank you very much for the reply. secondly, when I bought the phone I checked everything and put my sim card inside, everything worked properly. I could call and they could call me, I had a signal. I came home and took the card out of that phone and put it in another one, after 2 days I decided that I would still use that new phone that I bought Samsung s10 5g. however when i put the card next to it again, suddenly my signal was lost, i tried to restart the whole phone, i put everything back to factory and when i turned it on and tried again, nothing changed. there is no signal at all, I don't know what could have happened when I didn't even use it, how is it possible for it to lose the signal just like that, on its own..and I live in Slovakia, when I went to the service to ask for repairs they said that they can't because you've never seen s10 5g live before, and that this phone was made for another market and that they can't help me with that in any way. now I don't know what to do and how to fix it myself .. is there any application or something to check the signal on the phone, for example to see if its antenna works or what it is about? and can I somehow see if it's locked to some network? thanks again in advance!
Where is the antenna situated? Mine keeps loosing connection to carrier and internet. I've tried everything and believe it must be within the phone it's self. Any suggestions please. Thanks
There are antenna lines on the plastic covers inside in addition to antenna contact points on the board which are seated on the frame to make contact with the antennas in the frame. You would need to make sure the plastic covers on the inside of the phone are screwed down properly as well as no loose or disconnected cables inside and the motherboard is also seated properly.
@@PBKreviews so i've had it checked by an engineer and they found no problems in the phone or the connections. So far it seems to be behaving at the repair shop. But it might be ok in that area but i know it's not reliable as i'm travelling around. My S9 plus is an absolute rock of a phone and always has full signal and great download speed. But as soon as i put the sim into S10 it becomes useless. Will hardly connect, drops in and pout of signal and as a mobile phone is redundant. So do you think it's worth fitting a new antenna to try. Also it only ever says LTE, not 4G. Where as my S9 always says 4G. I am on 3 network. So it works fine on one and useless on the other. Any other suggestions please? MAny thanks
that lil connector is most definitely for a 5G mmwave antenna. My N976V has them while the other N975s don't so I'm assuming the connector would be for Verizons MMWave.
Possible but I don't think so, since the slots for the mmWave antenna are on the top left and bottom right of the frame as you can see which are empty on this phones frame, and the connector is way out of place for them to be connected to.
I have this phone and. Broke the back like the first week. (No case) I'm a duh mass. It's been like 8 months later they finally got back glass replacements available... thank god. I also saw some variants of the back glass that light up different logos and patterns. But idk how I feel about custom, non oem parts.
thanks for the nice video and for you taking your time to explain all of Us..we learn a lot from your videos and help a lot of Us to make a living..i was looking how to change the ear speaker i have done some note 9 i guess it is all similar..wish you the best and thanks again for sharing.
Do you know by any chance the name of the small component that you leave attached to the frame with the one screw you didn't remove? It's right above the vomume buttons. I'm guessing it's an antenna. The American version has an additional one to the right side of the battery and goes in the notch that you can see in your frame. I'm trying to find them but don't seem to bump into them.
Hi, those are the mmwave 5G antenna slots, for which the US version will probably have the mmwave 5G antennas seated for the carrier that use that type of 5g network.
This website has original parts and I believe does international as well. www.mobiledefenders.com/mobile-parts/samsung-repair-parts/galaxy-s-series/galaxy-s10-5g.html
Its for the 3D ToF Sensor and this variant I have does not have a 5G logo that lights up on the back but I believe sprint or some other carrier might have that
No should be fine, the mic is there. Its too small of a hole to mess with the integrity of the water seal per say but if you mess with the hole enough and make it larger then it would potentially pose a risk.
Hi, There are numerous antennas and contacts, not sure exactly which is for what but the top black plastic cover as well as the speaker assembly plastic housing on the bottom both have light grey colored antenna lines drawn on them so I would make sure those are screwed down properly since they make contact with gold contact points on the board to provide signal. Also the flex cables leading from main board to sub board should be properly connected and make sure they are not disconnected since the sub board (charger port board) has antenna contacts on it as well.
@@PBKreviews can you compair the thermal and performance of those phones. Also if you can, repaste them and see if the thermal get better. I repaste my s7 edge and it get 10 degree lower on gaming.
Just standard smartphone toolkit Philips screw drivers. There are links in the description for smartphone tool kits. Any smartphone sized Philips head screw driver should work fine.
No it has the 5g modem built in with the board, i think that will be for a carrier specific version with maybe a light up logo on the back or some other thing not sure yet. Whatever it is, its going to be for the back area maybe a specific carrier (network provider) band antenna booster not sure all just theories for now
Perhaps that connector at 1:30 is a service port? Having the port so open directly at the back of the phone would allow repair technicians easy access?... Just a thought
Its a theory but I don't think it will be for a service port. Usually they use those smaller circular antenna looking ports for servicing but regardless there is also a cut in the frame on the right side of the battery where there is 2 screw mounts with no screws attached or anything screwed into place there, so I am almost positive there is another version of this phone thats going to make use of that and the connector on top just wont know till it comes out worldwide lol
Might be those circle connectors to either side of the flex cable that has "main" written on it that is connected to the motherboard. Or the circular connector to the top right of the cameras on the main board but those can also just be test ports so not sure.
Hi, its not difficult, just held down with adhesive. So once you take apart the phone to the point you have access to the battery and have disconnected the battery cable, all you need to do is heat the front of the phone where the screen is with a hair dryer so you can warm up the adhesive underneath the battery to loosen it up. Then you use plastic pry tools to gently pry the battery off from the midframe (keep in mind not to bend to much or pierce the battery to avoid the chance of it catching fire or shorting etc.). You should be able to find replacements on ebay or amazon.
The circular connectors are generally for antennas. The mystery port would probably a JTAG debug port used for programming and testing the processor during development. Comes in handy when your software updating mechanisms are not completely in place.
ya sometimes they use ports for testing but this port I doubt. Since early pics of the sprint version showed a 5G logo on the back, I either lean toward it being for a light up back, or a certain carrier 5G antenna booster for certain bands. Possibly something else, if you look at 1:34 in the video on the right side of the battery, there is a milled out or cut out 4 half square design in the frame with a screw mount on either side but nothing is there and its left empty. Its there for a reason so I am very curious what they will be mounting there as well. I am positive the version of the phone that makes use of the connector will have something mounted there as well. So we will have to wait and see :) I will try and get my hands on other versions and see if I can solve the mystery
@@PBKreviews I was thinking that they left it open because they can program the device even in almost completely assembled state. Especially since the antenna as on that plastic casing. Anyways, let us wait and find out. Great effort from your side.
The white colored lines you see running through the top plastic cover once you remove the backplate and on the speaker plastic housing/enclosure are the cell and wifi antennas
Here is a link ( ibb.co/qy1TYNF ) the plastic piece on top and bottom circled in red both have antenna lines which are grey colored drawn onto them. Also depending on which version S10 5G you have, you might also have a high band mmWave 5G antenna on the side of the frame circled in green.
@@kamil40013 no, I don't have one nor do I know how to operate one lol, might ask my friend to test see if there is any current or voltage. It might also be a connector for a 5G booster for a certain carrier. I remember way back in the day motorola did something similar for verizon if I am not mistaken on the droid maxx where they used a spectrum/band booster or something like that on the back of the phone to boost signal for LTE.
I'm confused about choosing Samsung or Huawei next time. Samsung did separate charging port with the mainboard which will make it cheap to replace. Unfortunately they didn't with the other s10' still waiting for the shocking repair prices... luckily I take good care of my stuff
ya its a good thing they made the charger port replaceable on the 5G model, it costs a lot for the phone and if the charger port was not replaceable... lol then I don't think many people would want to buy it
@@costabago9188 you shouldn't be scared. I found the prices for Norway and I see it's the same prices for s10 as s9. But if you used to repair phones by yourself and save money then you are screwed.
That's what I was thinking but for which carrier? Because this one did not have any light up logo or anything connected to that connector. I was kinda thinking the sprint one in the US?
@@jeppewerring Yea its a good thing since its so expensive, if the port was not replaceable, people would not want to spend so much money on a un-repairable phone
@@MrJflow21 different variants may have it. Each carrier has their own requirements and I have herd there might be a galaxy s10 5g with sd support but again not sure which variant it will be, if its gona be a US model or not. Just because one version doesnt have it doesn't always mean all versions of it wont so hopefully we will see one with sd support
Here is a link for one but seems to be the same price as ones with the frame. www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-Galaxy-S10-5G-G977N-G977B-G977U-LCD-Screen-Digitizer-Black/392962715835?hash=item5b7e6730bb:g:MwAAAOSwT7JfvM6U
Sir I have a important question. My 5g front screen is cracked and I would like to repair it. But can I do Glass ONLY or does it have to be the whole screen? And at what point can I start separating the glass only from digitazer. ( I called a repair shop they charge 320 to replace the entire screen. I paid for my phone 520 by the way, touch screen works on entire screen.) thanks I'll be waiting for your reply. Awesome video.
End user can't really replace the glass by itself. You need special tools and machines to be able to take the glass off and apply a new one and make sure no dust or debris is underneath as well as making sure the touch is working accurately and in the right places. Your always best off doing a complete screen replacement anyways. No point in spending money and trying to just do the glass and render the phone useless and have to spend again to replace the entire screen. Try contacting samsung and asking them how much they would charge to replace the screen.
This board assembly is different from the original Samsung. Cause the charging port on this is modular and on the original s10 it a hold board that don't make sense Samsung is rip in people off
Going to have a go at this soon (awaiting parts) my loudspeaker sounds like static from a badly tuned radio. I got soo annoyed I slapped my phone against a wood table and shattered the back glass 😆 HULK SMASH
lol damn that sucks. Check www.mobiledefenders.com they usually have original parts for the phone if needed. Also the static can possibly be causing by metal shavings or other stuff getting attracted by the magnets to the speaker filter causing the distortion. Replacing the mesh speaker filter/grill fixes that issue if that is the case.
Hi, is there any way you could send me some HD photos of the opened up back of the S10 5G? I bought the phone recently and want to make a custom teardown skin for myself and I can't seem to find it anywhere for the life of me. Could we get in touch somehow? Really appreciate it :D
Ya I don't think it will cost $1000+ but probably the screen, 5g tech behind the phone and such will push up the price along with the 3D ToF sensors both in front and back, and the possibility of UFS 3.0 (since I didn't pry off the shields on the board to see). But again I don't see it going over 1K but I could be wrong
this phone looks really easy to open it 😬 or you make this easy any way just a suggestion you need to use a Gloves to Get rid of fingerprints thanks for video
Wth, the 5g models is more repairable than the regular one 🤣🤣. Really hate it since the port is not soldered on on this 5g models. I've got experience from s2 n s4 that the charging port won't work after 4-5 years. So, I've got to get a new device in the fourth or fifth years of using the regular ones. So sad
Yea they should make all charger ports replaceable, its a common piece that wears out and not everyone using wireless charging or carries a wireless charging pad around with them
Can anyone confirm that the Galaxy S10 5G has UFS 3.0? I got an official statement from Samsung Australia that said it support 3.0 UFD. But does support means ... actually HAS UFS 3.0? Please can someone clarify ? Thanks a lot guys !
2:07 mine is filled with a chip that you see in old calculator which i thought were solarpanels if you want to see the pic share your email and ill send the backs pic
Here is a link to a picture where I circled locations. The green circled areas are the antenna lines which run through the plastic covers. Not sure exactly which is for 5G or wifi etc. The red circled areas are where the mmWave antennas for 5G networks like verizon would go. But since this model was not a verizon phone it did not have the mmWave 5G antennas. ibb.co/GVZSkFw
@@christiangravidez7608 it does, but might not have the mmWave 5g antennas. Since there are multiple types of 5g networks, only the mmWave 5g networks require those additional mmWave antennas.
SOMEONE WANNA HELP ME? ANY INFO WOULD BE NICE. I BROKE BACK GLASS OF MY S10 5G. WHERE AND HOW THE FAAAK DO I REPLACE IT? I CANT GO TO CARRIER CUZ THEY DONT HAVE IT YET FOR REPLACEMENTS.
Your best bet in finding a replacement screen would be ebay or amazon, but not sure when they will be available. You can always contact samsung as well to send it to them and have it repaired
Rated capacity says 4400 mAh but typical capacity says 4500 mAh. All batteries have that 100 mAh difference between the two ratings listed on them for samsung.
@@youssefbounou6127 lol. Its not that sensitive. I've used metal tools on phones with batteries connected a lot back in the day and never had any issues. The possibility is there if you happen to touch and make a connection between to chips or circuits to spark and damage it but as far as exploding I don't see that happening unless you are actually shorting the battery connector head or piercing the battery itself with a metal object.
@@youssefbounou6127 They have insulated handles you moron. Also it was the *note 7* for an entire unrelated reason; it didn't explode neither. Big difference.
You would probably need to find a S10 5G with a broken screen which someone is selling online for parts to be able to take the main board out. Or if someone parted their phone. Not sure what either would run, I'm sure price would vary from seller to seller.

Its there for a reason so I am very curious what they will be mounting there as well. I am positive the version of the phone that makes use of the connector will have something mounted there as well. So we will have to wait and see :) I will try and get my hands on other versions and see if I can solve the mystery
@@PBKreviews I was thinking that they left it open because they can program the device even in almost completely assembled state. Especially since the antenna as on that plastic casing. Anyways, let us wait and find out. Great effort from your side.
Samsung pulled an Apple leaving the TOF sensor for the 5G device.
Yea they should have given to the S10 plus because the 10 plus was already same camera as normal s10
Where are the cell and wifi antennas on the s10 5G
The white colored lines you see running through the top plastic cover once you remove the backplate and on the speaker plastic housing/enclosure are the cell and wifi antennas
@@PBKreviews does s10 5g have micro sd & how much internal storage
@@MrJflow21 this south Korean version does not have sd and there is 256 or 512 version. But US version i think might have SD
There's no MicroSD card in the S10 5G
And the base storage is 256/8
PBKreviews, can you share the androbench results of this phone ?
Here is the link for the screen pic of results. ibb.co/qpbLxBf
@@PBKreviews Thank you :-)
@@matar1610 Your welcome
can you try Huawei P30 pro?
Ya I will look into it
Help full tnx
You're welcome
Hello, nice video, i buy it before see it but i want know where i can see the antenna in your video ?, please, thank you.
Here is a link ( ibb.co/qy1TYNF ) the plastic piece on top and bottom circled in red both have antenna lines which are grey colored drawn onto them. Also depending on which version S10 5G you have, you might also have a high band mmWave 5G antenna on the side of the frame circled in green.
Good 👍
What this connector is for ?
not sure yet, possibly a light up logo back plate for another carrier/version or something else.
@@PBKreviews that will be cool. Did you measured it with multimeter if there is any voltage?
@@kamil40013 no, I don't have one nor do I know how to operate one lol, might ask my friend to test see if there is any current or voltage. It might also be a connector for a 5G booster for a certain carrier. I remember way back in the day motorola did something similar for verizon if I am not mistaken on the droid maxx where they used a spectrum/band booster or something like that on the back of the phone to boost signal for LTE.
Great Phone with Great camera's
I'm confused about choosing Samsung or Huawei next time. Samsung did separate charging port with the mainboard which will make it cheap to replace. Unfortunately they didn't with the other s10' still waiting for the shocking repair prices... luckily I take good care of my stuff
ya its a good thing they made the charger port replaceable on the 5G model, it costs a lot for the phone and if the charger port was not replaceable... lol then I don't think many people would want to buy it
Dats d same thing i saying i dont understand y da did dat dats y am sticking with the note 9
@@costabago9188 you shouldn't be scared. I found the prices for Norway and I see it's the same prices for s10 as s9. But if you used to repair phones by yourself and save money then you are screwed.
DON'T GET HUAWEI
That mystery connector is to light up the 5G logo on the back of the phone when you're connected to 5G.
That's what I was thinking but for which carrier? Because this one did not have any light up logo or anything connected to that connector. I was kinda thinking the sprint one in the US?
Interesting to see that the Motherboard resides in the top half unlike any other S and Note series phone, maybe Note10 will be like this too.
And it's nice to see that the USB-C port and board is modular, people were complaining about it not being modular on the S10.
@@jeppewerring Yea its a good thing since its so expensive, if the port was not replaceable, people would not want to spend so much money on a un-repairable phone
@@PBKreviewslook is the 5g & galaxy fold ever gon have a micro sd card cuz I ain't paying my $
@@MrJflow21 different variants may have it. Each carrier has their own requirements and I have herd there might be a galaxy s10 5g with sd support but again not sure which variant it will be, if its gona be a US model or not. Just because one version doesnt have it doesn't always mean all versions of it wont so hopefully we will see one with sd support
@@PBKreviews its still quite easy to replace the usb connector on the s10+ even if its soldered to the board.
Where is the 5g antennas?
Where would you attach a JTAG/RIFF Box to this?
no idea
@@PBKreviews Poop. Thanks tho!
@@solitarymassacre no problem

Aliexpress
Where would you put an SD card in the S10 5G?
The S10 5G doesn't have an expandable storage slot, so you would not be able to add an SD card unfortunately.
Sir I have a important question. My 5g front screen is cracked and I would like to repair it. But can I do Glass ONLY or does it have to be the whole screen? And at what point can I start separating the glass only from digitazer.
( I called a repair shop they charge 320 to replace the entire screen. I paid for my phone 520 by the way, touch screen works on entire screen.) thanks I'll be waiting for your reply. Awesome video.
End user can't really replace the glass by itself. You need special tools and machines to be able to take the glass off and apply a new one and make sure no dust or debris is underneath as well as making sure the touch is working accurately and in the right places. Your always best off doing a complete screen replacement anyways. No point in spending money and trying to just do the glass and render the phone useless and have to spend again to replace the entire screen. Try contacting samsung and asking them how much they would charge to replace the screen.
@@PBKreviews thank you sir for responding. With your help, I know what to do now. Thank you.
Might u saw the upcoming of s 10 lite
Us version on certain carrier, Verizon I think has a light up 5g back logo when 5g is connected.
Jamie Le'scot do you have any pics of it?
@@mahammad afraid not, I think I saw it on a youtube vid
Good Phone
This board assembly is different from the original Samsung. Cause the charging port on this is modular and on the original s10 it a hold board that don't make sense Samsung is rip in people off
If you can afford an S10 then I'm sure you can afford to repair it for a bit more than usual. Stop crying and take care of your device.
Going to have a go at this soon (awaiting parts) my loudspeaker sounds like static from a badly tuned radio. I got soo annoyed I slapped my phone against a wood table and shattered the back glass 😆 HULK SMASH
lol damn that sucks. Check www.mobiledefenders.com they usually have original parts for the phone if needed. Also the static can possibly be causing by metal shavings or other stuff getting attracted by the magnets to the speaker filter causing the distortion. Replacing the mesh speaker filter/grill fixes that issue if that is the case.
Hi, is there any way you could send me some HD photos of the opened up back of the S10 5G?
I bought the phone recently and want to make a custom teardown skin for myself and I can't seem to find it anywhere for the life of me.
Could we get in touch somehow?
Really appreciate it :D
Hi, I don't have the phone anymore its been a long time since I did the video.
@@PBKreviews it alright, I managed to photoshop a screenshot from this video and the results are pretty good.
Thanks tho :D
@@hamzadar2029 sounds good, no problem :)
Sim card???
what do you mean
when watching at all the components, no way in hell this costs $1000+
Ya I don't think it will cost $1000+ but probably the screen, 5g tech behind the phone and such will push up the price along with the 3D ToF sensors both in front and back, and the possibility of UFS 3.0 (since I didn't pry off the shields on the board to see). But again I don't see it going over 1K but I could be wrong
iFixit without all the gimmicky bullshit. Cheers.
Thanks! 👍
Easier to repair then the s8 lol 👍👌
this phone looks really easy to open it 😬 or you make this easy
any way just a suggestion you need to use a Gloves to Get rid of fingerprints
thanks for video
Yea true. Thanks!
Can the phone still work without the wireless charging pad? I am planning to remove it.
Yeah it should still work.
removing the adhesive under the battery seems to be the most difficult part? anyone tried this?
The battery capacity of the Galaxy s10 5g is 4500mah, but in reality the capacity is 4400mah.
Yea they always advertise it in best case scenario it will be 4500mAh but in real average cases will operate at 4400mAh.
It does say "Typical capacity" lol
Wth, the 5g models is more repairable than the regular one 🤣🤣. Really hate it since the port is not soldered on on this 5g models. I've got experience from s2 n s4 that the charging port won't work after 4-5 years. So, I've got to get a new device in the fourth or fifth years of using the regular ones. So sad
Yea they should make all charger ports replaceable, its a common piece that wears out and not everyone using wireless charging or carries a wireless charging pad around with them
Who keeps a phone that long anyways
I didn't see any of the red or white wires that are usually in the phones
Ya not every phone has those wires some boards have the circuits drawn onto the board itself which is the cleanest way in my opinion
@@PBKreviews guess they are going away from those last flagship from them I saw with the cable wires was the s9
Can anyone confirm that the Galaxy S10 5G has UFS 3.0? I got an official statement from Samsung Australia that said it support 3.0 UFD. But does support means ... actually HAS UFS 3.0? Please can someone clarify ? Thanks a lot guys !

Where's the 5g antenna?
Here is a link to a picture where I circled locations. The green circled areas are the antenna lines which run through the plastic covers. Not sure exactly which is for 5G or wifi etc. The red circled areas are where the mmWave antennas for 5G networks like verizon would go. But since this model was not a verizon phone it did not have the mmWave 5G antennas. ibb.co/GVZSkFw

@@PBKreviews the Korean variant of s10 5g doesn't have 5g antennas?
@@christiangravidez7608 it does, but might not have the mmWave 5g antennas. Since there are multiple types of 5g networks, only the mmWave 5g networks require those additional mmWave antennas.

Your best bet in finding a replacement screen would be ebay or amazon, but not sure when they will be available. You can always contact samsung as well to send it to them and have it repaired
Easy to replace
It doesn’t have a sim tray. .
Lol what do you mean? It does
oh it doesnt have a sd card.
@@Gavar0ni no this south korean variant did not have sd card support but not sure if the other variants/versions will or not

@@Gavar0ni oh ok
4,400 & not 4,500mah battery compacity🤣🤣🤣
Rated capacity says 4400 mAh but typical capacity says 4500 mAh. All batteries have that 100 mAh difference between the two ratings listed on them for samsung.
Duuude unplug the battery first before touching anything with a metal screwdriver, needless to remind you of the C4 fiasco with the S7
Well you need to first remove the cover that's covering the connector for the battery in order to unplug it lol which we did.
PBKreviews lol when i saw you pointing that screwdriver on the motherboard i said to myself that's it an explosion is coming
@@youssefbounou6127 lol. Its not that sensitive. I've used metal tools on phones with batteries connected a lot back in the day and never had any issues. The possibility is there if you happen to touch and make a connection between to chips or circuits to spark and damage it but as far as exploding I don't see that happening unless you are actually shorting the battery connector head or piercing the battery itself with a metal object.
@@youssefbounou6127
They have insulated handles you moron. Also it was the *note 7* for an entire unrelated reason; it didn't explode neither. Big difference.
Who won the chucky doll giveaway
No one yet its not over yet, ends 21st
Do you have an idea how much is S10 5G motherboard? Is it more reasonable to buy a new phone? lol
You would probably need to find a S10 5G with a broken screen which someone is selling online for parts to be able to take the main board out. Or if someone parted their phone. Not sure what either would run, I'm sure price would vary from seller to seller.
