  • With a new and improved phone comes a new and improved opening procedure ... or not! Once again we must heat things up and put our trusty iSclack to work.

  • We pull the backs off our phones, waiting for some kind of trap. Not this time, Admiral Ackbar! The panels come right off.

  • Samsung may have accidentally made a repairability improvement here—by moving the fingerprint sensors off the back cover, they've eliminated the flex cable booby trap that has plagued Galaxy hardware repairs in recent years.

  • Also, did we imagine it, or is the adhesive a little less stubborn this time?

  • Just as things are cooling down, we notice heat-dissipating graphite pads strategically placed on these back covers. Something in here is designed to get hot without burning your fingers.
