Youtuber “JerryRigEverything” uploaded a video of Samsung Galaxy S10 teardown, where he showed what is inside the smartphone. One important thing came out is about the USB-C port. The port is permanently soldered on the motherboard. Compared to which in ample of devices the same can be replaced at an affordable cost, in case of Samsung Galaxy S10 you will have to replace the whole motherboard that is not good.
JerryRigEverything went deeper by tearing down it more, the video reveals a lot about the complex packing of S10 and it looks once you damage, you pay for everything. The ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor is inaccessible without getting rid of the screen.
