Instead of paying full price for a genuine Apple battery, there’s a smarter and cheaper way to get one. And it might surprise you.

Sapphire screen protectors are some of the most expensive you can buy. They resist scratches better than glass, but may not survive drops as well. Here’s the real tradeoff.

Leaked images made the Galaxy S26 Ultra look shockingly thin, but a hands-on look at a 1:1 dummy unit suggests Samsung may be exaggerating the change. Side-by-side with the S25 Ultra, the difference is there, but it’s far less dramatic than the leaks implied.

A single tear in a flex cable can destroy an expensive smartphone screen. This repair shows how advanced microsoldering techniques can temporarily bring it back to life.

Fake AirPods usually stop at looks. These go further. They connect properly, sound decent, and include features you wouldn’t expect at this price, even if not everything works as advertised.

Aftermarket foldable screens for the Z Flip 4 are finally here, and they cost about half as much as Samsung originals. I tested one to see if the savings are actually worth it.

The Mudita Kompakt costs $400, uses an e-ink display, and cuts you off from the modern smartphone world in ways I’ve never seen before.

This $40 card-style tracker is thinner than an AirTag, works with iPhone and Android, wirelessly charges, and doubles as a digital business card.

The iPhone home button worked great on the outside, but repairing it was a different story. From fragile flex cables to Touch ID risks, this repair shows why I don’t miss it.

I removed the vapor chamber from an iPhone 17 Pro and stress tested it before and after. The temperatures barely changed, but the performance data revealed something far more interesting.

I 3D printed a model of the rumored iPhone Fold to see how Apple’s wildest leaks might feel in real life. From the ultra-thin design to Touch ID, camera rumors, and a potential $2,000 price tag, this foldable could be Apple’s most ambitious iPhone yet.

I took my transparent iPhone 17 Pro Max and coated the inside of the back glass with Musou Black to create a black and orange custom look. Here is how it turned out.

The Nothing Phone 3 ditched its iconic glyphs and somehow managed to upset a lot of people. I opened it up, discovered some of the cleanest Android internals I have ever seen, and tried to give it the design Nothing should have shipped.

The Red Magic 11 Pro has actual liquid cooling and gamer hardware built in, but dust resistance and camera quality make you question the trade-offs.

Lenovo’s ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable turns a laptop into a workspace that grows when you need it. Swipe, knock, or gesture, and the screen expands with AI features to help you work smarter.

Luxury iPhones are absurdly expensive, so I tried building my own gold-plated iPhone 14 Pro for a fraction of the price. It looks wild, scratches easily, and comes with more compromises than I expected.

I have always wanted a luxury iPhone like every other tech YouTuber, but instead of spending ten grand, I decided to try something much cheaper and slightly more questionable.

Samsung’s trifold phone finally made a public appearance at CES, and after handling it in person, I am impressed, confused, and slightly afraid for my wallet if this thing ever breaks.
