| - | [* black] We take a final stab at removing these snugly stuck waterproofed volume buttons. |
|---|---|
| - | [* black] We took off the retaining bar thing. |
| - | [* black] And this weird c-clip looking thing. |
| - | [* black] And the button came off! With two wee gaskets! Apple is serious about this waterproofing business. |
| + | [* black] With the rear case nearly stripped, we turn our attention to the volume buttons that gave us some trouble in the 7 Plus. |
| + | [* black] Our persistent tugging with some tweezers rewards us with a broken retaining flap, but this button cover still won't come quietly. |
| + | [* black] Next out is this weird c-clip looking thing. |
