We want to try out the S9's new dual aperture, but using the camera app seems a little too conventional.

After a bit of disassembly, a spudger seems to do the trick instead.

This may seem goofy, but the S9 really will have a small actuator that mechanically opens and closes the aperture—a mechanical bit that can fail.

Removing the lens also reveals the image sensor. Taking a closer look we see...yep that's an image sensor. Maybe some X-rays can show us that DRAM...
