-[* black] Newly reinforced charging port is now screwed into the side and bottom of the case.
-[* black] This is why the pentalobes are threaded at the head, rather than at the ends, they screw into the case to secure the Lightning port, and key into (rather than screwing into) the display to avoid straining it.
-[* black] There's also a weird lower cable antenna maybe brackety thing under it?
+[* black] In fine form as always, our teardown engineer demonstrates dual tweezer technique to remove the Lightning connector.
+[* black] Good news for anyone with the wiggly charging cable blues, the Lightning connector is looking extra-reinforced, with a wider bracket that screws into the sidewall of the frame.
+ [* black] It also features through holes for the exterior pentalobe screws to pass through and key into the display, as we saw earlier.
