Motherboard Offers Inside Look at iFixit’s iPhone X Journey

After several years of inquiries, Jason Koebler and the team at Motherboard were granted permission last November to follow iFixit on its journey of tearing down the latest iPhone. Video of that job, which included a plane ride from California to Australia for the iPhone X’s launch, is now available.

iFixit is best known for its commitment to tearing down new tech as soon as it becomes available, but as the video documents, the company’s primary mission is to equip people to repair their devices. Whether you’ve followed iFixit’s work in the past or not, the video is a fascinating look into the efforts that fuel each device teardown.
