Razer laptop motherboard repair video showcases superhuman hand-soldering skills — PCB damage appears to be the result of a misplaced screw hole on a motherboard that one repairer says has 'a fatal design flaw'

Razer mobo - a tricky repair.

An electronics technician stars in a video showing an intricate repair of a Razer gaming laptop motherboard by hand. This is one of the most challenging PCB repair tasks we have seen come to a successful conclusion. The repair fixes damage that appears to be the result of the same underlying issue outlined by another repair tech, who asserts that Razer’s Blade 14 mobo has “a fatal design flaw.”

It is definitely worth spending two minutes and 48 seconds watching this, even if you watch it at 2x speed, but you then need to remember to pick up your jaw from the floor.
