  • Samsung's headphone jacks are only about 12 mm tall and 8 mm across, and they're 100% modular, which we really like. It's just a shame there's not enough room for one in an iPhone—or even an iPad.

  • ... or is there?

  • We'll talk cameras in a moment, but for now we jettison the selfie cams to make way for motherboard extraction.

  • Our teardown engineer executes a flawless synchronized motherboard lift ...

  • ... and unfortunately the USB-C ports come along for the ride. What used to be one of the Galaxy phones' few positive repair points—a modular, replaceable USB-C port—is gone.
