Folks over at iFixit have been quite busy lately considering the number of devices released over the last month. Now, Apple’s comparatively low-cost iPhone XR has made it out into the wild. iFixit got its hands on the device to take it apart to give us a peek on what Apple has jam-packed inside the device. There are various aspects covered, so let’s see some more details on the teardown and how different it is from the iPhone XS and the previous models.

Opening up the iPhone XR is pretty similar to the iPhone X as Apple uses its standard Pentalobe screws. According to iFixit, the screws don’t match the color of the device and the SIM card tray is also lower than that of the iPhone XS and it is modular which is the first for an iPhone. This makes it faster to swap a dead SIM reader and results in lower cost when replacing the logic board.
