Детальный разбор iPhone 6 Plus

Шаг 5

Как и во всех последних моделях, используются pentalobe-винты. Мы используем наш Набор отверток Pro Tech для того, чтобы справится с ними.
Хотя мы не любим такие "сложные" винты, но все же это лучше, чем сразу переходить к нагреву (как в случае с iPad).

Шаг 6

Время iSclack! Замечательный инструмент, чтобы безопасно, без повреждений, отделить дисплейный модуль от корпуса.
Делаем аккуратно, помня сюрприз с прошлого разбора.
Без каких-либо сложностей удалось открыть наш золотой "сундук с сокровищами".
Избавление от кабеля, идущего от Touch ID к разъему Lightning привело к лучшему дизайну устройства (и более безопасной процедуре вскрытия), как на iPhone 5, который на данный момент является самым удобным iPhone для ремонта.
Как и в прошлых моделях, шлейфы, идущие от экрана безопасно закреплены с помощью металлических держателей.

Шаг 7

Наконец-то мы можем увидеть, что же внутри :)
В принципе, все выглядит очень похоже на то, что было в iPhone 5s, но сразу заметен сильно увеличенный размер батареи.

any word on the display maker/materials?

Шаг 8

Модуль кнопки Home защищен металлической пластиной. Если её снять, то кнопка легко вынимается.

Шаг 9

Передняя камера -- часть модуля, который включает разговорный динамик. Этот модуль закреплен на задней части передней панели телефона.

I'm a little confused.. Shouldn't there be mroe of a teardown on the screen? Seems the backplate on the LCD would have some ribboncable hidden beneath it?

MobiFix - 19/09/14

Can the front camera b removed without interupting the function of the earpiece speaker?

lzsdn - 21/09/14

My iphone 6 plus has a webbed screen however everything works 100%. I bought a replacement "glass front screen" off ebay and attempted to replace it yesterday. It appears that the front glass screen is glued onto the backplate. Can you confirm? I can provide an image of the screen I bought on ebay if that helps. Thanks

Aruba1 - 15/10/14

Шаг 10

Снимаем металлическую пластину с передней панели.
Apple полностью изменила способ подключения кнопки Home к материнской плате, что сильно повысило ремонтопригодность. Теперь нет короткого, легко рвущегося кабеля, как в 5s. Вместо этого кабель проходит вдоль обратной части аппарата, чему мы несказанно рады!

Apple is most likely primarily focused on the ease of assembly rather than ease of repair.

Hacked2123 - 19/09/14

Exactly. A short cable that has to be attached like the iPhone 5S means a time-robbing assembly step that's done in tight situations.

Making the cable long may cost 10 cents more in materials costs, but if it saves the worker 20 seconds of time, it increases manufacturing throughput of that worker and thus makes up for the extra cost.

Worf - 19/09/14

Шаг 11

Время извлечь батарею.
Шлейф батареи закреплен металлической пластиной, которую мы убираем с помощью нашего специального инструмента.
Внизу батареи есть липкие защитные ленты.
Что мы про них знаем: отклеиваешь правильно -- и это суперлегко, но если тянешь неверно, то это просто ужас.
Эти пломбы аналогичны пломбам 3М, и если верно прилагать усилия, то все идет как по маслу.

Is it Possible to remove the Logic Board right after removing the screen without having to remove the battery or anything else?

Aaron Richey - 14/04/15

Шаг 12

После пары магических слов, батарея легко извлекается.
Как и говорилось в слухах, емкость батареи -- 3,82 Вольта при 11,1 Ватт/час энергии, что составляет 2915 миллиАмпер/час — почти в 2 раза больше, чем в iPhone 5s с его 1560 мА/ч, и немного больше, чем у Galaxy S5 с 2800 мА/ч.
В итоге увеличенная батарея и эффективность позволяет Apple заявлять о 24 часах разговора в 3G и 384 часах в режиме ожидания.
Батарея у Plus больше, чем батарея у iPhone 6 (6,91В/ч, 1810мА/ч), что объясняет бОльшую продолжительность работы устройства, несмотря на бОльший дисплей.

How much does the battery weigh ? Is the mA density per gram higher than previous generations ?

Joao Fabio Tavares - 19/09/14

Correct me if I am wrong - at 3.82 V and 11.1 Wh, isn't the battery more like 2905 mAh?

Valserp - 19/09/14

Can anyone tell me what the minimum A or mA will be to charge the phones? Curious if some 3rd party power banks I have will still work.

nmccmv12 - 23/09/14

Шаг 13

О! Что-то новенькое! Модуль вибромотора расположен справа от батареи, ниже материнской платы.
Знаете Jimmy? Возможно, вы с ним уже знакомы. С помощью Джимми мы откроем этот модуль.
Спасибо, Джим! Внутри -- медные контакты, катушки и вибромотор.

What kinds of vibrator? Looks different from the conventional. What are the dimensions of the vibrator?

Louis Jeong - 19/09/14

i think its new apple made and we will see some similar in the apple watch (taptic engine)

3gfisch - 19/09/14

The vibrator isn't the common motor/counterweight type. It seems like a linear see-saw motor, using the magnets themselves as the moving masses.

raymondjram - 19/09/14

Annoyingly loud, this new vibrator. Calling it "silent" mode is now pushing it.

b c - 19/09/14

Шаг 14

Основная камера легко достается пинцетом.
Сзади камера iSight маркирована DNL432 70566F MKLAB.
Как и iPhone 5s, 6 Plus содержит 8 MP (с пикселями 1.5µ) с диафрагмой ƒ/2.2 камеру. 6 Plus принес два изменения: оптическая стабилизация изображения, и Фазовый автофокус "Focus Pixel".
Phase-detection has been around for awhile in DSLRs, but is relatively new to smartphones. However, the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus aren't the first to feature it — the Samsung Galaxy S5 had it first.

Invensense OIS in rear camera?

sony sensor or no? Which?

seff - 19/09/14

Is it possible to put 8MP camera of iPhone 6 plus in iPhone 6 ?

youplaou - 19/09/14

Step 17:

------------

Constant readings from the gyroscope and the M8 motion coprocessor give the iPhone 6 Plus detailed data on the movements of your shaky human hands, allowing it to compensate by rapidly moving the lens assembly. Result: sharper, clearer photos, even in low-light environments.

--------------

I am still puzzled by the fact that both models have the M8 and MP67B chips. So, why do you say that OIS is only in the 6+ model?

DoubleBagel - 20/09/14

Is there a small strap by the rear facing camera that is necessary for functionality? if so what is the part number or id? Thanks

alexiskf - 17/05/15

Шаг 15

Such wiggles. Much wiggles.

Шаг 16

Давайте заглянем внутрь модуля камеры.
Используя пластиковый инструмент и несколько крепких пальцев, мы снимаем корпус.

Metal shield, 6 pins. What is is Captain!

Evil Otaku - 19/09/14

Шаг 17

При ближнем рассмотрении внутренностей камеры мы замечаем ожидаемое: небольшая линза.
Под линзой мы видим сенсор камеры.

Шаг 18

Пришло время отделить материнскую плату от корпуса.
Перед завершением советуем аккуратно отделить крепление антенны от задней части платы.

Шаг 19

Давайте посмотрим на некоторые микросхемы на передней стороне материнской платы:
Apple A8 APL1011 SoC + Elpida 1 GB LPDDR3 RAM (маркировка EDF8164A3PM-GD-F)
Qualcomm MDM9625M LTE Modem
Skyworks 77802-23 Low Band LTE PAD
Avago A8020 High Band PAD
Avago A8010 Ultra High Band PA + FBARs
Усилитель мощности TriQuint TQF6410 3G EDGE
Гироскоп и акселерометр InvenSense MP67B 6-axis

Can you tell if the A8 was manufactured by Samsung or TSMC?

halo1982 - 19/09/14

The A8 was definitely manufactured by TSMC in TAIWAN!~

who won the gyro/accelerometer???

DeandreCole - 19/09/14

Invensense !

Piy - 19/09/14

It looks like there is another accelerometer right next to the IMU... Might be that they are having problems with Invensense?

visiblenoise - 23/09/14

Can you open the rear facing camera to see if Invensense is in it?

nann - 19/09/14

Love you Invensense gyroscope :))= :)

Piy - 19/09/14

Is there a small Qualcomm IC next to the Avago and Skyworks parts with a QFE 11xx number?

Chris - 19/09/14

You're correct Chris! It's a Qualcomm QFE1100.

Geoff Wacker - 19/09/14

Where is the barometer? Is it from Bosch?

Nick Wong - 19/09/14

yeah, the bosch sensor is missing in the teardown: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.p...

hmm778 - 27/09/14

Шаг 20

Еще чипы на передней стороне платы:
Qualcomm QFE1000 Envelope Tracking IC
RF Micro Devices RF5159 Antenna Switch Module
SkyWorks 77356-8 Mid-Band PAD

Шаг 21

Задняя сторона материнской платы
SK Hynix H2JTDG8UD1BMS 128 Gb (16 GB) NAND Flash
Murata 339S0228 Wi-Fi Module
Apple/Dialog 338S1251-AZ Power Management IC

NFC is not connected to the battery right? It could never be used to wirelessly charge correct?

Court Kizer - 19/09/14

That's correct.

Kyle Wiens - 19/09/14

holy crap you guys getting nerd hard ons ... where the F#$ is my pocket protector %#*@ IT ALL!!!

Hayward Life - 19/09/14

Big business. For instance Invensense in iPhones for first time ever. If they are in the 6 also, that is 200+million chips sold over the next year. Revenues/Cash Flow up. Buy some stock(hopefully you already owned some or atleast some calls)! This teardown represents billions of dollars.....the question is who's making it. Its not all about iPhones and pocket protectors....its more about making stacks and stacks of money. One day you will figure it out.

dt40 - 19/09/14

Any chance you could remove the cover of the Murata 339S0228 Wi-Fi Module to see what's inside?

Michael - 19/09/14

Can you confirm the M8 part no. LPC18B1UK isn't in the NXP manual; LPC185x is.

Anthony - 20/09/14

OK, looks like M8 is an LPC18B1UK as stated....http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_M7

Anthony - 20/09/14

Raymond Yu - 22/09/14

any fix for tactil bug?

arseneaudave - 20/12/16

Variant: A 128GB model uses proprietary Toshiba (now Kioxia) NAND instead of SK Hynix.

Roland Metivier -

Шаг 22

Еще чипы на задней стороне.
Qualcomm WFR1620 receive-only companion chip
Qualcomm заявляет, что WFR1620 "необходим для реализации работы с операторами через WTR1625L", что бы это ни значило.
Qualcomm PM8019 power management IC
Texas Instruments 343S0694 touch transmitter
AMS AS3923 boosted NFC front end

What's a "touch transmitter"?

- Texas Instruments 343S0694 Touch Transmitter

I can't believe they use two controllers for the touch screen?!?

in step 21: Broadcom BCM5976 Touchscreen Controller

tre - 19/09/14

Does anyone know how much the AMS chip costs (ballpark)?

John Winters - 19/09/14

The guys from NFCworld found the ams chip now: http://www.ams.com/eng/Products/NFC-HF-R...

Seems you cannot find it Googling for it.

From the block diagram it seems the AS3923 is connecting to the antenna not the NFC controller.

Fits to the description saying that the chip is replacing the drivers of the controller.

They also mention to support peer to peer and other modes so we can hope for more than just payment it seems ;) Cant wait to get one...

Do other phone manufacturers use an NFC booster or is this unique to IP6?

John Winters - 20/09/14

Шаг 23

Одинокий динамик.
Модульный дизайн динамика -- это хорошо, даже если нет четкой маркировки, как здесь. В данном случае пока неясен производитель.

On the lower-left corner of the front of the speaker (second image, can't tell if front or back, guessing front), you can see what looks like a QR code and a serial number, but that's just out of focus enough so it's impossible to make out.

Danny Dalton - 19/09/14

The barcode reads DXY43443115G34YAU dun think you can decipher anything from it.

lawrence - 22/09/14

Шаг 24

Модуль разъема зарядки состоит из разъема наушников, Lightning-разъема и нескольких коннекторов для антенн.
Такая компоновка замечательна с точки зрения сохранения места, но не очень хороша, когда разъем наушников решает, что ему не нравится, когда его постоянно используют!

Is the 6 plus completely Samsung free ?

Tochi Nwa - 19/09/14

At first blush, it appears so! Taking inventory of all the components, I noticed that as well.

Yves Luther - 19/09/14

Does either iPhone 6 actually feature official water resistance to any degree?

Joey Geraci - 19/09/14

Шаг 28

Гигант повержен! iPhone 6 Plus получает 7 из 10 баллов по простоте ремонта. Это шаг вперед по сравнению с iPhone 5s:
Продолжая тренд, заданный iPhone 5, дисплейный модуль отделяется в первую очередь, что упрощает замену дисплея (самая частая поломка).
Батарею поменять тоже несложно. Нужны отвертки для pentalobe-винтов и умение аккуратно снять пластиковые пломбы. Но это не сложно.
Шлейф датчика отпечатков пальцев теперь не мешает вскрытию устройства (на 5s его очень легко повредить, если неаккуратно отделять дисплей).
В iPhone до сих пор используются pentalobe-винты, которые требуют специальных отверток.
Apple сама не делится информацией по ремонту iPhone 6 Plus с независимыми мастерскими и клиентами.

5s? Pretty sure this was a 6 plus? =)

MobiFix - 19/09/14

Whoops... fixed! :)

Luke Soules - 19/09/14

OK, using pentalobe screws is kind of annoying, but you guys sell the driver for $8. Given how smoothly the disassembly went it doesn't seem fair to give a red dot (and maybe a drop from 8 to 7) for the requirement of an $8 part when repairing an $800 device.

How much is the Ram?1G?2G?

jamdali5 - 19/09/14

If this has 1GB of RAM, it's going to be bricked like iPhone 3G, iPhone 4 with 3GS specs and 4x pixels can't run iOS7, like iPhone 4S can't handle iOS8, like iPad 1's 256MB of RAM, like iPad 3 with 4x pixels on iPad 2 specs. iPhone 5 will run iOS11 fine with 1GB and iPhone 6 Plus will lag with less available memory.

the problem of iphone 4/4s aint the memory is the processor, unlike android, ios pause all the applications and tasks that are running on the background otherwise the applications on android are still rinning on the background thatswhy android need more processing power and memory to hold the entire system.

yeison_polaco - 17/03/17

Macworld didn't confirm it. They said it appears to be 1GB.

Android Users be like: Please let it be 1 gig memory...Apple Users like: Oh no,hopefully he does not scratch it.

Shame that Android users weren't bright enough to realise that a phone based of [a ripoff] Java machine is going to need absurd amounts of memory. Which is why Android phones fail so badly when the user runs multiple applications.

RAM is 1G according to the part no. F8164A3PM-GD-F (8 stands for 8Gb=1GB)

16 stands for 16Gb=2GB

'8' stands for 8Gb=1GB (for 2GB SDRAM, the part no. will be 'A')

"64" stands for 64-bit data width (for 32-bit SDRAM, the part no. will be "32")

The datasheet of Elpida SDRAM can be found here: http://www.micron.com/-/media/documents/...

F8164A3PM had 0 results. You should've said EDF8164A3PM. Thanks for the link!

Ah, unfortunate. This is my first iphone, !&&* my last android I bought a bit over two years ago had double the ram of this. Oh well, so it goes

fish - 19/09/14

The part no. of SDRAM (F8164A3PM-GD-F) can be found on the right of Apple A8 SOC.

According to the datasheet, F is the product family (Mobile LPDDR3 SDRAM); A is the power supply interface (1.8V and 1.2V); 3 is the revision; PM is the package code.

This SDRAM should be a customized product with customized package (the SDRAM in Apple A7 SOC is F8164A1PD while the standard part no. is F8164A1MA).

Benson, you made it on MacRumors, congrats. http://www.macrumors.com/2014/09/18/ipho...

I'm amazed at how people do not understand RAM usage in a modern OS. Android still suffers from outdated methods, so it needs more RAM. iOS and WP do not need more RAM. More RAM would provide zero benefit.

Be reasonable Scott. If he was bright enough to understand that, he wouldn't have bought Android in the first place.

Android can do more at once, its not an outdated method, its flexibility. iOS and WP are simpler, which suits their userbase..

chrisM - 24/09/14

He's right. Java requires an absurd amount of RAM since it is an interpreted language, meaning that your phone has to recompile an application every few seconds! But iPhone runs on C++ which is super conservative with ram and in all honesty, all iPhone apps only need at max 312mb of ram while Android uses the whole lot.
