As we crack open this book display, we are greeted by the familiar display cable bracket. But instead of the cursed tri-point screws, we're happy to report that we're met with friendly Phillips #000 screws!

We can't say that we will miss you, tri-points.

We quickly decouple a few cables—the battery, display, and home button cables to be exact—and the display is free!

We note a lack of gaskets on the display's pentalobe tabs, which was previously seen in the iPhone 7.

However, both the iPhone 7 and iPhone 8 have an IP67 water resistance rating. How are the floodgates still closed!?
