We had to remove 6 Phillips #00 screws to separate the glass from the LCD.
The glass (with integrated touch sensors and chips) is underneath, while the LCD is being removed.
In the previous iPhone, the display was fairly monolithic. A number of components were connected together via the display assembly-- now the display just connects to the main board. Hopefully this will make obtaining replacement parts easier-- we've had trouble getting quality supplies of iPhone displays to sell.
