Flip Mino HD Teardown

The Victim

I decided to take apart a broken Flip I had laying around. The screen had been damaged during a trip and would no longer display what was being recorded.

During the disassembly I was able to turn the Flip on and record a short video. It’s kinda cool to see how far it could be taken apart and still function.

Unscrewed

I’ve put up a series of photographs of the process on my Flickr account with notes that I hope prove helpful for anyone attempting to do this on their own.

As for what will become of this Flip – maybe a hidden-camcorder-in-a-book mod?
