For the DIYers out there who own the Nexus 5 from LG, you might be intrigued by the above video. The video shows a tear-down of the popular Google flagship smartphone. This video comes courtesy of eTradeSupply. These folks are possibly not quite as famous as the iFixit team, but they are still one of the top sites to offer this type of disassembly-style coverage of our favorite mobile tech.

Not only does this video showcase the full tear-down of the device, it also reveals how to replace the screen yourself should it become damaged, and details a few other repairs as well. The video even covers the differences between the D820 and D821 versions of the superphone. How many of you guys would attempt a repair like this?
