| - | [* black] A 30% bigger display than the Series3 (but still same size as the Series 5) and 2.5x brighter in always-on mode are two specs in the Series 6. |
|---|---|
| - | [* black] We're taking a closer look at the cables and find only two connectors instead of the three in yesteryears edition. Looks like the NFC connector has been moved to an on-display connector. |
| - | [* black] Small ZIF-connectors and a strange short grounding cable make getting the display off a difficult task (but still better than the two grounding cables on different sides in the Series 5. |
| + | [* black] The Series 6 features a display that's 30% larger (than the Series 3, it's still Series 5 sized), and much brighter, so how does that change things? |
| + | [* black] Turns out this year's model has fewer connectors—the NFC having a display-side jumper this time—and only one grounding cable. We love a streamlined design, especially ones that help out during repairs! |
| + | [* black] Aside from some reconfiguration, these displays (Series 5 on the left, 6 on the right) look about the same, no big reveals here. |
| + | [* icon_note] That said, we ''did'' bend a newly-placed spring contact during opening, so maybe wait for our repair guides before you bust these bad boys open. |
