The bottom third comes out next: these cables and components might not be flashy, but they all have one great thing in common: modularity.

One minor oddity is this USB-C port flex cable, which spreads out in the middle like someone flattened it with a rolling pin. We're not sure why, but it seems unlikely Huawei did that just for fun.

Betwixt all those cables, we have a fairly standard lower-half-of-a-smartphone situation on our hands here: SIM tray, small daughterboard, loudspeaker (32-bit/384 kHz), and some shielding.
