The video centers on the intricate process of replacing the camera glass on a Google Pixel 7 Pro, highlighting the increased difficulty compared to the Pixel 6 Pro due to design changes. Key challenges include managing the aluminum bezel, solidified plastic residue used for sealing, and preventing dust contamination during glass removal. The presenter employs heat-resistant tape and 70% alcohol to carefully dislodge the glass, taking precautions to avoid damaging the camera modules. Emphasis is placed on minimizing dust, particularly white powder dust that can settle on the camera module and lens. Proper cleaning techniques are demonstrated, such as using an air blower before wiping with paper towels to prevent scratches. Ensuring proper alignment and application of the new glass, as well as retesting the camera functionality to check for focus or clarity issues, are crucial steps. The presenter also notes potential issues with incomplete double-sided tape affecting water resistance.

In this part of the video, the presenter discusses replacing the camera glass on a Google Pixel 7 Pro. They note that, compared to the Pixel 6 Pro, this task is more difficult due to the design changes. The speaker uses heat resistance tape to protect the camera modules while heating the edges of the broken glass for removal. They highlight the challenges posed by the aluminum bezel and the solidified plastic residue used by Google for sealing, as opposed to a double-sided adhesive. The process involves carefully applying 70% alcohol with a scalpel to loosen the adhesive without directly pouring it, to avoid any mess. They decide to stop using heat as it might damage the camera modules, continuing with alcohol application to carefully remove the broken glass without harming the device.

In this segment of the video, the presenter discusses the proper method for cleaning and replacing the camera glass on a Pixel 7 Pro. They emphasize not to wipe the camera lenses with a cloth immediately to avoid scratching; instead, use air to remove dust first. Testing the camera functionality before installation is crucial to ensure no issues with focus or clarity. When installing the new camera glass, align it perfectly with the camera bezel and apply slight pressure to secure it. They caution about incomplete double-sided tape on replacement camera glass, which can affect water resistance. Finally, they recommend retesting the cameras after installation and suggest a related screen replacement video.
