    • Er valt een hoop te leren van alle dingen die verstopt zitten in de "beste, meest geavanceerde iPhone ooit"—maar eerst nemen we de tijd om te reflecteren op wat we allemaal al wel weten:

    • Apple A10 Fusion processor met ingebouwde M10 motion coprocessor

    • 32, 128 en 256 GB aan interne geheugencapaciteit (het jet zwarte model is niet verkrijgbaar in 32 GB)

    • 5.5-inch multitouch IPS Retina HD-scherm met 1920 x 1080 pixels (401 ppi)

    • Dubbele 12 MP groothoek en telefoto-camera's met respectievelijk diafragma's van f/1.8 en f/2.8, 2x optische zoom en 10x digitale zoom

    • 7 MP FaceTime HD-camera met diafragma van f/2.2 en 1080p HD opnamecapaciteit

    • Solid-state thuisknop met Touch ID, aangedreven door een nieuwe trilmotor

    • 802.11a/b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi + MIMO Bluetooth 4.2 + NFC

    Which carrier phone is this

    The iPhone 7 plus is much deferent than iPhone 6 and iPhone 6S. The lack of antenna lines especial at the jet black version, the lack of earphone jack, the dual lenses and dual speaker make it distinguishable. I personally like it very much and I will soon buy the iPhone 7 plus jet black 256GByte model. The only thing I dislike is that I won't be able to store my iOS apps on my hard disk as I am doing with my old jailbroken iphone 6 plus. So the 256 Gbytes are more than necessary.

    • De afmetingen van de iPhone 7 Plus zijn gelijk aan die van haar voorganger, met 158.2 mm x 77.9 mm x 7.3 mm—en toch is deze telefoon iets lichter, namelijk 187.67 gram (vs. de 6s Plus met 191.93 gram). Hopelijk heeft Apple niets belangrijks weggehaald.

    • De 7 Plus is tevens bedrukt met een nieuwe modelnummer: A1785.

    • Voor diegenen die zich toch wat meer tot de duistere kant aangetrokken voelen, biedt Apple nu een matzwarte en een krasbare, jet-zwarte versie van de iPhone 7 Plus, als toevoeging op de reeds beschikbare zilveren, gouden en roze-gouden versies.

    • De 7 Plus laat ook eindelijk die afzichtelijke antennelijn van weleer varen, ten gunste van een wat subtieler uiterlijk.

    • Het best zichtbare verschil is echter misschien wel de Lightning naar 3.5 mm hoofdtelefoonjack-adapter, bijgevoegd in de doos. Wij moeten nog wel wat moed verzamelen om deze ontwikkeling te verwerken. Sorry, baby-adapter. Het ligt niet aan jou, maar aan ons..

    The dimensions of the iPhone 7 Plus are identical to those of its predecessor, at 158.2 mm × 77.9 mm × 7.3 mm—and yet it's slightly lighter, at 6.63 oz (vs. the 6s Plus at 6.77 oz). Hopefully Apple didn't remove anything important.... They removed the headphone jack and assembly.

    How about 3.5mm powered accessories like the square? Is square going to ante up for the lightning interface?

    refd123 - Antwoord

    I don't believe that the jet black color is so prone to scratches. I generally baby my phone and protect them with cases and glass membranes. So it's not a real issue. The lack of earphone jack isn't a problem. I bet that every manufacturer very soon will produce earphones with lighting jack. Those with very expensive conventional earphones will find the earphone adapter annoying but that isn't a big issue. After all when you are buying a phone at 800 dollars you can spent 100 dollars for decent earphones. Apple as always is removing parts from its iPhones. People forget that the earphone jack of the first generation iphone was small and deep inside. It didn't allow many earphones.

    Apple music is a subscription streaming service. You don't own the content. So you don't need to trust them.

    The square works off the headphone jack. If they use it to spec, then it should work off the adapter.

    • Voordat we in de binnenkant van dit drie-ogige monster duiken, geven we onszelf alvast een voorproefje met dank aan onze vrienden van Creative Electron.

    • Blijf hangen voor meer kijkjes in deze nieuwe iPhone's interne onderdelen via onze röntgenexperts!

    • Wat voor voordelen bieden de superkrachten van de röntgenvisie ons?

    • Ten eerste zien we dat de hoofdtelefoonjack eruit gehaald is om meer ruimte te creëren voor de trilmotor.

    • Nog betere inspectie toont ons dat er een nieuwe, tweede onderste speakergrille is die naar...helemaal nergens leidt? Interessant.

    • We kunnen vanaf hier ook het nieuwe derde oog in de cameraopstelling van de iPhone 7 Plus zien. Wat voor wijsheid en inzicht draagt deze in zich? Laten we dat eens uitzoeken!

    Please x-ray the Lightning to 3.5mm jack adapter so we can see if there's a DAC and AMP built into the cable. Otherwise you're going to have to cut it open, and that won't be pretty.

    • Apple kan dan wel vaarwel hebben gezegd tegen de hoofdtelefoonjack, maar blijft nog altijd meer dan trouw aan de Pentalobe. Twee, ons inmiddels bekende, schroeven bewaken iedere zijde van de Lightning-aansluiting.

    • Omdat we zo benieuwd zijn naar wat er zich achter de roze-gouden buitenkant bevindt, pakken we onze iSclack erbij en blijken we heel wat te moeten wrikken om voorbij de koppige lijm te komen.

    • De kleefstrip die de 7 Plus dichthoudt is aanzienlijk sterker dan de kleefstrip die we tegenkwamen in haar voorganger. Is dit het eerste teken van een verbeterde waterdichtheid?

    Does it make sense noting the best location to set the iSclack onto the iPhone so not to rip the cable connection shown in Step5 below? Or the best pattern to lift the cover off.

    Dan - Antwoord

    Apple could easily have avoid screws on iPhone like it does with iPads and iPod touch. This is an indications that Apple wants their phone to be serviceable by experienced foreigners. But not easily ben opened by ordinary users. The adhesive strip is a good idea. I wouldn't like an iPhone with a wobbling battery inside.

    • Wat is deze gekheid? De 7 Plus opent op bizarre wijze naar de zijkant, ondanks de inmiddels bekende klemmen aan de bovenkant van de telefoon welke het scherm, net als in de voorgaande modellen, op z'n plek helpen te houden.

    • We hadden het geluk aan onze zijde aangezien we de schermkabels die langs het midden van de rechterkant lopen. Godzijdank heeft de bovenste kabel wat rek.

    • Subtiele veranderingen in het ontwerp, zoals deze, bewijst eens te meer het nut van reparatiehandleidingen.

    • Het openen van de 7 Plus onthult een veelheid aan zwarte en witte kleverige lijmstukken die zich langs de buitenkant van de telefoon bevinden.

    • Onze gok is dat deze pinguinachtige kleverigheid onderdeel is van Apple's voornemen om de telefoon wat weerbaarder te maken tegen mogelijke waterschade. Alhoewel, het kan natuurlijk ook dat Apple-technici gewoon ontzettend veel van lijm houden.

    The iSclack is more than necessary. This cables can be broken easily. One of the reasons I love iFixit. From my experience all iPhones since iphone 4 were a little waterproofing. I didn't have problems with lightly rain or with wet hands or very sweaty faces. Now with the new iPhone I will use it safely at the beach. However waterproofing is a subjective issue. The iphone 7 is less waterproof than the second Apple watch.

    • Binnenin de telefoon vinden we een leger aan moedige tri-point schroeven die het paneeltje over de batterijaansluiting en twee van de schermkabels bevestigt.

    • Een jaar geleden namen we een kleine risico door de Apple "watch screw" aan onze 64-delige toolkit toe te voegen. Maar wat was dat een goed idee!

    • Een tweede peloton van tri-points bevestigen het paneel dat de lange en verige bovenste schermkabel beveiligt.

    • Tri-point schroeven vind je niet overal. Hoewel je zou kunnen argumenteren dat tri-points minder snel doordraaien, nemen we aan dat als het werkelijk zo'n mechanisch voordeel zou bieden, dat we het wel in alle iToestellen zouden vinden. Het is vrij duidelijk dat ze hier de twee meest frequente reparaties verhinderen: van de batterij en het scherm.

    • We nemen onze eigen wapens schroevendraaier ter hand en dwingen het paneel zich over te geven zodat we onze missie richting het hart van de iPhone 7 Plus kunnen voortzetten.

    There is space for audio jack up there!

    victortaykw - Antwoord

    Audio Jack and Water Resistance strike me as being somewhat mutually counterproductive. I, for one, am very happy to see the poxy 3.5mm Jack consigned to history.

    biowizard -

    Another possibility for the reasoning behind the tri-point screws is that Apple knows these are the most common screws to need to be removed, and chose to go with something less likely to strip for their "geniuses" to work with.

    Bryan Schwartz - Antwoord

    The Phillips screw is a terrible screw drive design. According to McFeeley's, it was invented and promoted because the driver will cam out when torque increases. I'm skeptical about the motivation, but Phillips screws cam out or strip out with alarming frequency, especially in smaller sizes. I would love to never see or use a Phillips screw.

    If you want to ding Apple for picking obscure drivers, fine. But you should also ding them, and everyone else, when they use the horrible Phillips screws.

    Derek Roff - Antwoord

    Then why not use Torx?

    Chris Prendergast -

    The reason tri-lobe screws are used is because a Torx drive socket on a screw that small wouldn't work. The tri-lobe is like a Torx profile and has the same advantages, but with two less lobes. In addition, tri-lobes are used because it can be put on a screw with a thinner head, where other drive types wouldn't work. The thinnest screw heads (0.3mm and below) require tri-lobe.

    Do people really think nefarious apple engineers are intentionally trying to keep users from doing repairs? They could care less. Besides, if anyone's gotten that far, a screw type with an uncommon head is not going to stop them.

    John Connor -

    Bryan is right. They are tri-point because they are the most common to remove and therefore you don't want to strip them. Why all the screws aren't tri-point I'm not sure of.

    Shaun Stelley - Antwoord

    But what size of tri lobe is it? Like apple watch y0.6?

    Piotr - Antwoord

    I never could understand why Apple is bothering with so many different type of screws. At the age of ebay and iFixit every screw can be opened safely. Maybe another method to discourage users that don't know iFixit to mess with the the internal hardware

    • Op de plaats van de voormalig hoofdtelefoonjack vinden we nu een onderdeel dat geluid vanaf buiten de telefoon naar de microfoon lijkt te begeleiden... of van de trilmotor naar buiten.

    • Geen fancy electronica hier, gewoon wat goed ontworpen akoestiek en speciaal gevormd plastic.

    • Demontage-update: Volgens Apple is dit plastic onderdeel een barometrische ventilatieopening. Met de door de waterdichte pakking toegevoegde bescherming tegen water en stof, gebruikt de iPhone dit onderdeel om de interne en externe druk te equalizen om zo een accurate altimeter te vormen.

    • Mechanische knoppen zijn echt iets van vroeger, zeker wanneer je een trilmotor hebt! Deze slicke motor gebruikt haptische feedback om de druk op een knop te simuleren, zonder een echte knop te hebben.

    • Eenieder die al bekend is met het touchpad in de Retina MacBook 2015 heeft reeds kennis gemaakt met de haptische functies van de trilmotor.

    fake speaker port????

    Apple doesn't waste space. The left port is for the microphone. It isn't a fake speaker port. And that speaker like component is a sound chamber - like our outer ears.

    I agree, likely used to cut down on wind noise (low frequencies) the mic could pick up.

    Dan -

    Seems apple wasted space here. That "Taptic" engine seems to have a lot of air in it ( in the middle where it's not needed). Wonder if they could have made that a tad less wide and included the audio jack after all???

    scottwilkins - Antwoord

    The two things you have to think about is the mass and the throw you have within the Taptic engine when you design it. You need enough mass that can kinetically offset the mass of the device you have it in, as well as the amount of energy to throw of the mass so you feel it.

    It appears Apple has used a slightly larger unit (comparing the images). It would nice if someone could weigh the mass and measure the opening size between the iPhone 7 & 7 Plus Taptic engines and the 6 iPhone vibrators

    Dan -

    Looks a lot like that a "speaker port" for the Taptic Engine, for the home button to not only feel but also sound clicky.

    What you described as a sound chamber doesn't seem to actually have any connection to the microphone, but to the Taptic Engine.

    A Taptic could also be used as a subwoofer, due to its low resonant frequency of about 190Hz

    I had a problem with the central button of iPhone 4. Now with the touchpad central button of iPhone 7 the reliability is increased. However the taptic engine is too big. I think that it takes valuable space from the battery. Beside the reliability issue the classic button should be better. I don't like the taptic engine of new MacBooks.

    • Wat doe je als de dingen beginnen te schudden op hun grondvesten? Dan zet je je röntgenbril op alles dat beweegt. En dat is precies wat we deden bij de trilmotor.

    • "Taptische motor" (andere benaming voor de trilmotor) klinkt als iets wat je vindt op een intergalactisch oorlogsschip. In werkelijkheid hebben we hier simpelweg te maken met een kleine, lineaire actuator en wat zig-zag veren die een kern met wat gewicht erin heen en weer beweegt.

    • Eerlijkheid gebiedt wel te zeggen dat dit het grootste stukje mechanische machinerie is dat we in een smartphone zijn tegengekomen.

    • De trilmotor vertaalt de druk die op de nieuwe solid-state thuisknop wordt uitgeoefend naar zeer specifiek gecontroleerde trillingen.

    • We houden allemaal van het klikkende gevoel van een druk op de knop. De preciese oscilattie (trilling) van de trilmotor is zo ontworpen dat deze vele soorten en vormen van tactiele feedback kan geven, inclusief de sensatie van het drukken op een mechanische knop.

    • Waarom zou je echter niet gewoon een reguliere knop gebruiken met een haptische toevoeging, zoals in de iPhone 6s? Wel, een knop minder betekent ook een plek minder voor water om in de telefoon te dringen.

    So is this a voicecoil+magnets actuator? Or a piezo device?

    • We zijn blij te zien dat Apple zich aan de traditie houdt met het toevoegen van treklipjes aan de kleefstrips van de batterij.

    • Het is tijd voor wat batterij-yoga. We rekken elk van de drie treklipjes aan de kleefstrips uit om zowel de batterij alsook onze spanningen omtrent de moeizame verwijderingen van batterijen los te laten.

    Maybe the trickiest part of iPhone repairing. In the case of an early brake of the battery adhesive, tools must be used for removing the battery. Tools that may puncture the battery and cause fire. I suggest a totally discharged iPhone in case of battery replacement.

    • En hier is de grote, boze batterij zelf!

    • De batterij is getest op een spanning van 3.82 V en 2900 mAh, wat een totaal vermogen van 11.1 Wh oplevert. Dit is een lichte toename in vergelijking met de 10.45 Wh (3.8 V, 2750 mAh) van de 6s Plus, en stemt overeen met de 11.1 Wh, 2916 mAh batterijcel die we in de 6 Plus aantroffen.

    • Apple claimt dat het batterijleven met een uur is verlengd ten opzichte van de 6s Plus—dat betekent dat je nu 21 uur aan 3G-praattijd, ongeveer 15 uur aan Wi-Fi internetgebruik, of tot wel 16 dagen in standbymodus hebt.

    The new efficiency of the iPhone 7 plus allows a smaller battery and lighter weight.

    James Katt - Antwoord

    I don't see how "1.11Wh" can be considered a step down from "1.11Wh"! They are identical numbers. The trouble with comparing mAh values, is that they are meaningless without knowing the voltage. And (knowing that W = VA) ...

    3.82V * 2.900Ah = 11.078Wh (iPhone 7 plus)

    3.80V * 2.915Ah = 11.077Wh (iPhone 6 plus)

    Which means they are exactly the same, bar the least significant digit (which is in the 7's favour)!

    • Apple laat ons dubbel zien bij het eruit trekken van de cameraopstelling met twee aparte sensoren, twee lenzen en twee kleine aansluitingen.

    • De twee 12 MP camera's—één groothoek met Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), net zoals in de iPhone 7, de andere een telefoto—maken optische zoom mogelijk.

    • Beide camera's bevatten ook een nieuwe afbeeldingssensor, waarvan Apple claimt dat ze 60% sneller en 30% efficiënter zijn in energieverbruik dan in vorige iPhone's.

    • De ge-upgrade camera's vergoeilijken bijna de vergrote, buitenste cameraheuvel—welke deze keer in het chassis is gebouwd met wederom een verdachte waterdichte/stofdichte-afweertactiek.

    • We gebruiken andermaal onze röntgenvisie om een staarwedstrijd met deze cameraopstelling aan te gaan. Zonder te knipperen, zien we vier metalen blokjes rondom een enkele camera. We gokken dat dit de magneten zijn die de OIS mogelijk maken.

    Two sets of OIS?

    It really doesn't seem like it. Look at the voice coils. the smaller 56mm unit only has ones that are lined up to move the lenses back and forth for focusing. the 28mm one has magnets and coils that allow it to move from side to side and up and down for stabilization.

    garyliao2001 - Antwoord

    I agree with you. I don't think the telephoto has OIS.

    I believe those magnets you are indicating on the 28mm optical housing interact with the electromagnets on the face of the sensor assembly. The orange plate with wire traces on all four corners. I agree with your assessment that the 56mm lens is just a focusing voice coil and is not stabilized.

    evilspoonman -

    "the second a telephoto —allow for optical zoom" Really? Isn't it only for Focus?

    Masa - Antwoord

    One camera is a 28mm F1.8 with OIS and sensor, the other is a 56mm F2.8 normal lens with no OIS and it's own sensor, read, not telephoto that optically doubles ( 2x ) the magnification of the two cameras in use. I am not sure how it is dealt with when in between 1-2X but beyond 2x is "digital zoom" which is essentially cropping the native file of the longest lens. There is no real "telephoto" lens in the iPhone 7+, it is just marketing speak. However, the combination of a 28mm and a 56mm lens is not a weak addition to the already great iPhone camera platform. I plan on using it a lot and making a lot of great images with it when not using my professional gear, for my profession.

    what kind of sensor ? IMX????

    badnessboy83 - Antwoord

    I know it's Apple's term, but the non-wideangle camera is not, by any definition, "telephoto". It's actually a "standard" lens, roughly equivalent to a 55mm lens on a 35m camera.

    biowizard - Antwoord

    Technically it is a telephoto as are all phone lenses - telephoto means that the lens is shorter than its effective focal length whereas on slrs wide angle lenses have to be reverse telephoto to clear the mirror. It is a telephoto of normal focal length, like the pancake lenses fitted to a number of digital cameras.

    Martin Bacon -

    A telephoto lens has a focal length longer than that of the track length of the lens assembly. Apple is using the term correctly.

    skydivertak - Antwoord

    Could you please tell us what the image sensor is? I'm hoping for IMX260 or IMX377, probably the two best smartphone chips on the market today; if the nominal rated size of the main chip is "1/2.6" at 12 MP, the closest match I'm aware of in the Exmor lineup would be the 260 given unless its something brand new, that's the closet match to the specs given (at ~1/2.5 and 12 MP), and Sony only makes a few 1/2.6 chips, none near 12 MP, as well as the 260 being the sensor used in the also dual camera V10. I can't see any obvious candidates for the second sensor; the only 1/3.2 sensors Sony has are the 8 MPs. And I don't see any discussion of the front sensor here, though perhaps I'm just missing it.

    Have you figured out who is the sensor manufacturer?

    Miguel Ferreira - Antwoord

    Smartphones even iPhones suffer from image noise during low light shooting. They use very small image sensors which can't gather enough light fast. So the software amplifies digitally the ISO creating image noise and deteriorating colors.

    I would prefer a bigger camera with a bigger image sensor with better image stabilization instead of two cameras. Ordinary users are impressed more from the two cameras and don't know the benefits of bigger image sensors.

    Agnostos Gnostos - Antwoord

    I think Sony should be the manufacturer, OIS is not available for the telephoto lens.

    gr8sujit - Antwoord

    The comments below this article indicate the telephoto lens does indeed have OIS. But the comments above my post say otherwise. What is the final conclusion? Does the iP7+ have OIS on all lenses/cameras?

    parshnib - Antwoord

    Would there be a way to turn off the hardware OIS by doing into the machine? Some people with stabilizing gimbals are finding the hardware OIS troublesome by causing jitters on video capture. Apple has not enabled a way to completely turn off hardware OIS.

    These both appear to be Squelch pads. The second image is the shielding cover over the second. The antenna is the upper case its self.

    The model is A1785 according to the first post. This means this is the Japan model. If what I hear is correct, this means that the chips in this model are different than those around the world. This has to do with the FeliCa chip that Apple said would be available in "iPhones sold in Japan." What I would like to know is what a teardown of a non-Japanese iphone 7 has in terms of NFC chips. I wonder because there would be a difference of "We only advertise FeliCa in Japan (but the hardware is there)" as opposed to "We only include the hardware for FeliCa in the Japanese SKUs, A1779 (iphone 7) or A1785 (iPhone 7 Plus)." As someone who travels to Japan (and has Suica/FeliCa cards), this would be useful to know.

    • Rubberen pakkingen en stoppen vormen geen nieuwe technologie, maar zijn effectief in het buiten houden van water en stof. Maar dat komt ook met een prijs—als je een onderdeel vervangt, zul je ervoor moeten zorgen dat je de rubberen pakkingen vervangt en op precies de goede plek plaatst, wat voor een extra moeilijkheidsgraad zorgt.

Alles bij elkaar is het een stap in de goede richting.

    • Een vervangbare thuisknop is goed nieuws voor gebruikers. De mechanische thuisknop heeft vaak voor problemen gezorgd bij vorige iPhone's. Hoewel onze data toont dat de thuisknop-betrouwbaarheid in de 6 en de 6s beter is dan in de 5 en 5s, zijn er nog steeds bijna 100,000 mensen die de reparatiehandleiding van de iPhone 6 thuisknop hebben gebruikt.

    • De batterij is gemakkelijk te bereiken. Het verwijderen vereist speciale schroevendraaiers en kennis van de techniek om de lijm te verwijderen, maar is niet moeilijk.
    • De solid-state thuisknop elimineert een veel voorkomend probleempunt.
    • De verbeterde water- en stofdichtheid leidt tot een aanzienlijke reductie van de noodzaak tot reparaties vanwege omgevingsschade en ongelukkige lekkages (maar bemoeilijkt tegelijkertijd andere reparaties).
    • De schermmodule blijft het eerste onderdeel dat uit de telefoon komt, wat schermreparaties vergemakkelijkt—maar de procedure is wel gecompliceerder geworden met de opgevoerde water- en stofdichtheidsmaatregelen.
    • Met de toevoeging van de tri-point schroeven zullen veel iPhone 7 Plus-reparaties tot wel vier verschillende soorten schroevendraaiers vereisen.

%#*@ i was so eagerly waiting for this ! I'm like ifixit hasn't uploaded the first set of teardown and here we go

yazdanbanaji - Antwoord

Me too! Love their work.

Colin Baines -

Has anyone tried to remove the home "button" yet? Worried about being able to transfer touch id to replacement screens......

rneeley - Antwoord

I think the home button is still transferrable to replacement screen based on the screws right under its plate, it should have a small connector to the LCD assembly itself.

iTechshark MO -

That it what I am hoping based on the video that came out Wednesday, but then they did not remove it. I own a repair shop, I am sitting on the edge of my seat here ;)

rneeley -

Same thing here lol

iTechshark MO -

Somebody in China beat ifixit to it and did a full teardown. The home button is transferable.

Tom Chai -

Tom - Do you have a link?

rneeley -

Re Home "button" replacement. I was under the impression a new "button" still needs to be calibrated to recognize all previous finger prints. I am not completely positive this is still the case. (?)

jchagman -

If you save your original home button and swap it to the new screen before you close it up, it is still paired to the motherboard. Sometimes the Touch ID won’t work but it’s hit or miss.

Daniel L -

Are you going to teardown model A1784 to see if it does indeed have an Intel modem?

andrewdavidharvey - Antwoord

It's all about the modem here. Big thing is for me: if Qualcamm, what model, X12? How many antennas, 4x4?

Nick Roosevelt -

Yes, its Qualcomm LTE Cat 12 modem which is capable of 650Mbps downlink speed. But stupid Apple folks have restricted it to 450 Mbps to match with inferior Intel modem on some models. Intel is Cat 10 modem capable of max 450Mbps

koyama -

what is the difference of this iPhone compared to the one they sell in USA?

george allo -

It appears the Home button is screwed in. The LCD shield looks like it will be fun to remove since the display cable is now in the middle left of it instead of at the top.

Kevin Stuckey - Antwoord

I am zooming in trying to find a cable, so far I can't find one coming off the button. I know the folks at iFixit have to take their time and do a complete teardown (and upload and type out info), I just wish they would skip ahead a little ;) - We all know the logic board will come out ;)

rneeley -

Thats pretty much same layout of LCD/Digitizer in iPad Air located on the lower right side with the addition of another flex for front facing cam on iPhone 7 series.

iTechshark MO -

The cable might be routed under the LCD back plate and thats what I am hoping, Apple will be insane having the home button built in the LCD assembly, maybe next year but not that year lol

iTechshark MO -

Ya, It does have a resemblance to the iPad Mini 4 too (oddly enough did two of those this week, of four total I have seen). We should all know very soon hopefully. We all know the fruit company would like to kill all the small repairs shops off and force people to their stores, but then again I am in a fairly large city with no store for 2.5 hours in any direction...

rneeley -

Will this iPhone have USB 3.0, like the iPad Pro?! Haha.

hyperintel13 - Antwoord

no, Lightning port on iPhone 7 does not have pins on both sides like iPad Pro 12.9" https://twitter.com/ingulsrud/status/776...

joel -

The flex cable appears to go off on the right of the Home button and there seems to be an extension cable that connects to it near the rightmost screw. You can see a small bubble in the cable between the LCD shield and Home button shield??.

Kevin Stuckey - Antwoord

You are right, thats what I was saying a minute ago.

iTechshark MO -

Also I am kinda feeling that the home button/touch ID will be easier to transfer than previous model with no adhesive, it seems its just a plate screwed in the button.

iTechshark MO -

Also if you look at the photo closely, there is a flex on the right side of the home button ( its on the left side on the 6 /6S series ) so I am kinda positive that the home button/touch ID is transferrable based on a close up of the photo with a zoom in the right side of the home button.

iTechshark MO - Antwoord

I agree with you!

Kevin Stuckey -

OK, I see what your talking about. Their is also a little hump on the right that is probably the connection point. Looking at the screw in the center of the button, maybe it comes out the front like the track-pad on a macbook. That shield should be lots of fun, I am betting the LCD flex is glued over.

rneeley -

Yup that sounds right except that the screw is just sitting to hold the button on place and not to adjust its tactile feedback since its not mechanical.

iTechshark MO -

"Two separate sensors, two lenses, and two sets of optical image stabilizers." So OIS on both lenses/sensors?

Holger - Antwoord

Yes indeed ! You got the right mate ! Despite people's claims on the telephoto lens not having the OiS it's crystal clear from this teardown that it indeed does have one

yazdanbanaji -

Based on Apple , its just one mechanical OIS and the second one is just software controlled so its just one OIS as far as I can tell.

iTechshark MO -

No I don't think so, the electromagnetic coils of the 56mm unit only move the lens back and forth for focusing. The 28mm unit you can clearly see the coils and the magnets that allow it to move side to side.

garyliao2001 -

You are right, didn't notice the coils at all.

iTechshark MO -

I can confirm that the touch ID/home button is screwed in a plate with 3 screws to pull it off and the button itself is screwed to the middle of the shield with one , cheers guys, its gonna be transferrable :)

iTechshark MO - Antwoord

Good! Now I can sleep soundly tonight knowing I still have a job for the next year :)

Kevin Stuckey -

We all have businesses for another year then Ed :) -- Can not wait to see the pictures, and especially do my own teardown (I am on the east cost of the US, so I have 8-9 hours to wait on Fedex still.)

rneeley -

Haha you are %#*@ right, one more year in repair business lol

iTechshark MO -

Not like many of us get much Samsung business anymore... Most of my customers faint or hang up when I tell them how much to fix an S7 Edge screen... Looking into the freezing technique, but not eager to spend a could grand on a maybe....

Please also tear down the 3.5mm to lightning cable to determine what type of DAC it uses

Pasko - Antwoord

Dan Parsons -

Henryplusone -

Are we sure this uses a DAC and the lightning port isn't just capable of outputting an analog signal?

lwwells -

Indeed I am also dying to know what the DAC situation is!

Foo Bar -

I've had one of these adapters since Thursday -- if I had know it was going to take this long, I would have just torn mine down and published the results on my own blog! The reveal of the third amp is a serious indicator Apple has modified its MFi specs, and now allows analogue output from Lightning. That's a HUGE deal.

Mac 128 -

Yes also very keen to find this info out. Chop-chop ifixit (literally)!

shrike8 -

I'd like to see the SIM tray portion that this mechanism is how to achieve water resistance IPx7.

ao11oaray - Antwoord

Nice teardown!

How about gyro?

STM or Invensense?

john smith - Antwoord

I am guessing the rectangular chip besides those front-end modules in step 14 is the gyro/accelometer. It becomes such a weird shape because Apple wants both a low-energy 3-axis and an accurate 6-axis in one module. If my theory is right, the marker on that chip hints STM.

Jie Zou -

It is the latest INVN chip

Someone who knows -

Hey someone who knows why are you so sure? In the 6 there were two separate gyros, a Bosch 3-axis and an Invensense 6-axis: http://www.chipworks.com/about-chipworks... Is this a new part (combo 3 and 6-axis)?

John -

It is 6-axis Invensense and yes, I am very sure for reasons not related to this article.

Someone who knows -

7 and 7 plus accelerometer response is different ,so wonder if 7 still use Bosch acce like iphone 6.

john smith -

It appears to be an invensense chip. You can see it on the Chinese version... http://www.microsofttranslator.com/bv.as...

Lets teardown A1784..

skemhey - Antwoord

How does Apple get stereo from only one speaker? Or does the photo of the speaker in step 19 show a divider in the middle that "separates" two small speakers? If so, how does one call this "stereo" when the two speakers are so close together? And why do the diagrams on Apple's website show lines pointing to the two grilles on the bottom of the phone, with the legend describing them as "Stereo speakers", when the iFixit teardown shows that the left-hand grille doesn't actually have a speaker behind it, contrary to Apple's diagram? And why do some of Apple's own diagrams point to a supposed second speaker towards the top of the phone, though the iFixit teardown found no such speaker there?

johnsawyercjs - Antwoord

The receiver speaker - that is, the speaker you hold up to your ear when you make a phone call, is the "second speaker" they're using for stereo sound now.

Dan Parsons -

Thanks. It took me a while to figure that out.

So it seems that the second speaker is a beefier version of the ear speaker at the top of the phone, shown above the display in step 5. If so, since this speaker is front-facing, and the speaker at the bottom is downward/side-facing, this might not give a normal stereo image, but it has the advantage of delivering sound along two planes instead of one, so that whether you're facing the front of the phone or its lower end, you'll still have one speaker pointed towards you, which should deliver better clarity than having neither speaker pointed towards you. Of course, if you have the phone sitting on a table and you're facing one of the two sides or the top end of the phone, you won't have a speaker pointed towards you, but you'll still have the front-facing speaker emitting sound up and out, and sound reflecting upward off the table from the bottom-facing speaker, so there will still be good diffusion of sound, and some stereo separation.

johnsawyercjs -

Looks like iPhone 7 Plus has Qualcomm Modem on both CDMA and non CDMA versions !!

IPhone 7

Audio ICs

The iPhone 7 still uses the same Apple/Cirrus Logic 338S00105 Audio Codec as in the iPhone 6S, but the Audio Amplifier has changed to the new 338S00220. (previously 338S1285).

We found not just 2 but 3 Audio Amplifiers - we speculate there is one audio amplifier for for each of the two speakers, and the third amplifier is for the headphone via the Lightning port.

The third Audio amplifier is situated next to the Applications Processor Module with 3 black blobs on it. It was discovered during de-soldering of the A10 applications processor. When the blob was scraped off, it was an ‘oh wow, there are 3 audio amps!’ kind of discovery. Chipworks has a Basic Functional Analysis Report of the Apple/Cirrus Logic 338S1285.

Note******** ifixit teardown report only lists 2 audio amps ....Chipworks discovered the third amp

Does anybody know if the 7 plus is using saphire glass? Or is it (like it was shown in a video earlier on the regular 7) only using Gorilla Glass.

han - Antwoord

You missed a third audio amplifier. Directly above the "A" in "A10" on the processor, there is a chip with 3 black blobs on it. It's the amplifier for the lightning port to headphone adapter.

spaceywilly - Antwoord

Yes, that third amp is a significant discovery implying a major change to Apple's MFi specs. In which case its a huge reversal of position, and will lead to a flood of cheap analogue audio products previously not possible, not to mention significant confusion as to just exactly what a "Lightning" equipped product means. My adapter didn't work on my SE until I updated to iOS 10. That shouldn't have been necessary as Apple already has published Lightning audio specs -- unless they changed something significant. So suddenly its not an inexpensive digital adapter with a DAC and amp, its a very expensive port connector changer.

Any idea what the part is between the RF front-end (between the Skyworks part and Avago PAMs)?

Harold - Antwoord

The stereo speakers function in such a way, that if you do watch a video on your phone or if you tilt your phone sideways, there will be a left and right speaker, both working to create a stereo sound. Most people do use their iPhone sideways to view videos, so this will certainly be noticeable to them.

Jose Toscano - Antwoord

I'd love to see a review of this. I can't imagine how they are going to make two different speakers sound the same, much less where one faces the listener, and the other points of to the side.

Mac 128 -

What about reassembly? It looks like a lot of the waterproofing is either a) lost, or b) significantly disturbed from the teardown. With reassembly, do we have to completely remove the waterproofing and reapply? If not, does it go back together imperfectly, due to gobs of the waterproofing building up during disassembly?

I wonder if you couldn't spray the entire internals with waterproofing, after the fact? It would make future mods/repairs basically impossible, but would improve/restore the initial waterproofing.

To all the rocket surgeons and techies out there, what're your thoughts?

bsquirdoff - Antwoord

Did you specify the IMU package?

Is this the new IPS LCD panel from JDI? I have read it uses the second generation Low Temperature Polysilicon backplanes, which in another article fueled a rumor that a higher resolution panel was going to used due to the power savings.

Is the lightening port data throughput the same as the previous iPhone 6s Plus, or the updated standard used in the iPad Pro?

Have you confirmed that there is analog audio available now from the lightning port?

I have a question. Did Apple use any technology from printed electronics, like silver ink, in the latest iPhone?

lol - Antwoord

If history is any guide as ALL Apple products have InvenSense gyros then we will see an integrated single 6 Axis from InvenSense. The Apple Watch must use a single 6 axis for everything to reduce power.

The only question is did Apple use InveSense GPS navigation Software?

Apple obviously has reduced GPS run time and rides the 6 Axis to reduce power consumption by up to 80% off time. This is what InveSense software specializes in and it has to be in the iWatch.

Will Apple do their own dead reconning algorithms or use InveSense SW?
