iPhone Air teardown reveals easy reparability and one cool trick

Apple's first novelty phone, the iPhone Air, has been a source of great fascination since its announcement. We all wanted to know how well it did in a bend test (spoiler alert: it did great), and now we want to know what it's like on the inside.

First, the iPhone Air is surprisingly easy to get into and repair, and got a relatively high score from iFixit.

I'll likely get the 17 Pro (Silver) and wait on the 2nd gen Air on my next upgrade...

I had a 3G and the upgraded to a 4s. The 4s was my favorite. Small, robust and powerful. It lasted 5 years.

A bezel difference of a fraction of a millimetre is clutching at straws there.
