It need a bit of heating because of solder under the chip not only on edges. I use flux and hotair it come off after 1.5 min WSON8 chip are pain in a** if youre new to this Dont rush just warm it for some time it will go offjust dont go too hot Its matter of time not temp.

Too late alerady damaged the chip and the board. Look at the photos :'( :'(

Can this still be saved ?

[struart]

Jeez
Clean motherboard with IPA in first place to see te REAL damage (its not tragic based on this photo) capacitors looks are in place ;P and chips pins are alive sooo....
About chip hmm its missing one pin on right? Only egde 8 pins are important ;P
DOnt ever go that hot for soo long make pauses if its tough....

[ahmed lachtar]

Yess the chip is missing a PIN on the right. There was a slight circuit imprint that was moved from a PIN but not disconnected. Should I send this to Poland and let an expert handle it ? I saw on Ali Express that you can buy a similar chip but honestly I don't trust my ability to resolder everythting back.

[struart]

Im far from expert ;P really far.... Im begginer like you but but couple motherboards later
Resolder is fine if you use low temperature solder so you hotair that chip about 4 seconds and its done...
And you should practice on some broken motherboards soldering skills to avoid that situations....
