iPhone X teardown finds major changes inside the gleaming exterior<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

iPhone X teardown finds major changes inside the gleaming exterior:- The iPhone 8 may have been filled with the expected kit, but we\u2019ve all been looking forward to finding out what fun Apple\u2019s engineers had putting together the all-new iPhone X \u2014 and it doesn\u2019t disappoint. iFixit\u2019s excellent-as-always teardown finds a wealth of strange new components inside the biggest redesign of the device in years.<\/span><\/p>\n

Right off the bat there\u2019s an interesting and first-time choice to split the battery into two parts \u2014 it\u2019s mainly just to better use the space that\u2019s left over after budgeting for the volume of the other parts. It still comes out as a single piece, just a little more L-shaped than the usual rectangle.<\/span><\/p>\n

Users will be glad to hear that the Lightning port has been reinforced; it\u2019s given a little more space and structure inside the body of the phone, which should prevent it from wearing out so quickly.<\/span><\/p>\n

The front-facing camera array, essentially a miniaturized first-generation Kinect, doesn\u2019t have many surprises, but it\u2019s nice to see that it comes out relatively easily and in one piece.<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s the logic board that really impresses, though. When taken out of its little spot, it looks like it\u2019s actually smaller than the iPhone 8\u2019s. How could that be, if it has even more capabilities? Turns out this particular logic board is double-sided.<\/span><\/p>\n

Putting a few pieces on the back of a board is nothing new, but this takes it to a different level. It\u2019s really two very thin and very densely packed logic boards, connected with a spacer PCB and with little tunnels through which data can travel.<\/span><\/p>\n

By doing this, the logic board in the iPhone X manages to take up 30 percent less space, while fitting in 35 percent more components. It\u2019s an admirable feat of miniaturization \u2014 but the flip side, so to speak, is that it puts a great deal of electronic eggs in one basket. If something goes wrong with one bit, you\u2019ll have to replace what\u2019s likely the most complex mobile logic board ever made.<\/span><\/p>\n

The good news is that the most common failure of iPhones \u2014 a cracked screen \u2014 is relatively straightforward to fix. That notch holding the Face ID hardware is separate from the screen, so you can replace the glass without replacing the baby Kinect. The battery is likewise relatively easy to replace. Take care of the back panel, though: if it shatters, you\u2019ll pretty much be stuck with it unless you really want to shell out.<\/span><\/p>\n
