Close up with the iPhone 3GS guts! – iPhone Tear Down

[contentblock id=2]

During a recent repair to my iPhone 3GS I decided to take some close up shots…


All the parts broken down.


This is the front glass, digitizer (touch translation), and LCD.


Here’s another view.


The battery.


The motherboard front.


The motherboard back.


Charger port, Speaker (left), Microphone (right) – Front


Charger port, Speaker, Microphone – Back


Sim tray, Wifi antenna, Headphone jack, Power button, Volume buttons


Case trim/Cell antenna

After tearing the whole thing down and putting it back together, I’m really impressed with the hardware design. This is where Apple’s products shine. I did run into a few strange snags while doing the back replacement. See my next post for more info on that.
