    Your dexterity is most envious, tiny parts even under my giant mag glass is the most troubling part of working on things. Fat fingers and old age don't help much either😒 Great repair, surprised you found the card slot module for sale, good old Ali. $400 camera for $20, not a bad deal bro. Landscape is breathtaking there, Wales or thereabouts I'm guessing?, beautiful country. Thanks for the video, well done and results were super. Enjoy the camera. See ya soon.

It works with any size torx or hex that's rounded out as well, drill it up a size or 2 and hammer a bigger torx bit in

    Internal design wise, it's amazing how little seems to have changed in this gopro compared to the older hero 5 black. I purchased a faulty gopro, where someone had inserted the sd card _next_ to the sd card slot (really easy mistake to make when looking at the design!), and that completely shredded the screen ribbon.
    One new screen later, it worked!

    • @BuyitFixit
      @BuyitFixit  8 месяцев назад

      Nice 👍It's the first time I've ever looked at one. It seemed very cheap so I thought I'd take a chance. I was quite surprised when it turned on! I was expecting water damage or something and the SD to be just a side issue (you know what some of these sellers are like on eBay 😂😂😂)

    I have an old Hero 4 Silver and it came with a clear plastic waterproof case. The camera ISN'T waterproof on its own, so the later ones may well be the same. Maybe somebody who's got one can confirm this?

    • @BuyitFixit
      @BuyitFixit  8 месяцев назад

      I just did a quick search and from the hero 5 they seem to be waterproof down to 10 meters with the side door closed (it's missing on this one but you can buy replacements).

    If something is called waterproof or watertight, then it cries out for heat glue. Use a heat fan to get rid of the glass...

    • @BuyitFixit
      @BuyitFixit  7 месяцев назад

      Yes, that would probably be the correct way to disassemble it. I thought the lens and plastic part must have just been clipped after watching another video on disassembly. If I do another I'll definitely try to remove the glass first now I know how it's assembled 👍
