[* black] We finally free this most-dense of logic boards to get a closer look.
[* black] This miniaturized logic board is incredibly space efficient. The density of connectors and components is unprecedented. Even an [guide|97521|Apple Watch|stepid=179040|new_window=true] has more bare board.
-[* black] The iPhone X board makes the 8 Plus look gangly and huge—but don't misunderstand there's actually more board in the X, it's just hiding under the board you can see in this image.
-[* black] This miniaturization was necessary to free up volume for a larger battery—it's basically an 8 Plus battery in about the space of an 8 body.
+[* black] The compact iPhone X board manages to pack more tech and still make the iPhone 8 Plus board look gangly and expansive.
+[* black] Comparing the footprint of the two boards, the iPhone X motherboard is about 70% of the size of the iPhone 8 Plus board—that's a lot more floor space for battery.
