Google Pixel XL complete disassembly: the screen is broken in an instant
|
At the Google conference earlier this month, two new Pixel smartphones, the successors of the Nexus series of mobile phones, were officially unveiled. Recently, the iFixit team completely disassembled the 5.5-inch Pixel XL to explore the true and false of Google's new generation of sons. In terms of configuration, the Pixel XL is equipped with a 5.5-inch AMOLED 2K screen with a pixel density of 534ppi and a 2.5D fourth-generation Gorilla Glass on the surface. The Pixel XL is equipped with Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon 821 quad-core processor, 4GB of memory, and two versions of body storage, 32GB and 128GB . In terms of photography, the rear camera has an effective pixel of 12.3 million, an aperture of f/2.0, and uses phase focus and laser focus technology. The front camera is 8 million pixels. In addition, the Pixel XL is also equipped with a back fingerprint recognition and a USB-C interface, and runs the Android 7.1 system. ↑↑↑Although the Pixel XL is an out-and-out Android Phone in terms of both internal and system, its appearance still has obvious iPhone elements. But the Pixel XL has abandoned the physical Home button, and the front is more concise. The use of virtual buttons is also a design method that Google has always advocated. ↑↑↑The back of the Pixel XL adopts a two-stage color scheme. The upper half is equipped with a fingerprint recognition module, and the camera has no offensive bulge. ↑↑↑The bottom of the Pixel XL is equipped with a USB-C interface. ↑↑↑Start disassembling the machine, first use hot compress to soften the adhesive that fixes the screen. ↑↑↑Then start from the bottom and use a prying piece and a suction cup to pull up the screen. ↑↑↑There is a set of cables behind the screen, which are very fragile. Be careful not to damage them. ↑↑↑Use a screwdriver to loosen the clip that fixes the screen cable. ↑↑↑In order to pursue the thickness of the fuselage, the Pixel XL omitted the bracket on the back of the screen, which made the AMOLED screen very fragile. The screen on the disassembled machine has been broken and declared scrapped. ↑↑↑Samsung screen driver module, model AMS546KD09, touch driver module model Synaptics ClearPad S3708. ↑↑↑Pixel XL's magnesium alloy middle frame is stuck to the case, but because it is too thin, it is actually very easy to bend... Yes, this part was also bent during disassembly. ↑↑↑Pixel XL's main board is a black PCB, and the small board at the bottom that installs the interface and other components is a blue PCB. ↑↑↑There are many ways to disassemble the battery. Here we choose the simplest and most violent one, which is to tear off the battery skin directly and then pull up the entire battery directly. ↑↑↑Pixel XL's battery capacity is 13.28Wh, which exceeds the 11.1Wh of iPhone 7 Plus. ↑↑↑All internal parts on Pixel XL are modular in design, which is very easy to disassemble and replace. This part in the picture is suspected to be a light sensor module. ↑↑↑This is the 3.5mm headphone jack module at the bottom. ↑↑↑8-megapixel front camera module. ↑↑↑Open the main board and you can see the fingerprint recognition module connected by a cable. ↑↑↑At first I thought this blue one was the rangefinder module, which is mainly responsible for laser focus. The modular component design minimizes the user's maintenance costs. Only the damaged module needs to be replaced without replacing the entire motherboard. ↑↑↑But it may actually be a passive inductor, because we found two pads and a copper coil next to the main camera. ↑↑↑Pixel XL's 12.3-megapixel main camera. It has an f/2.0 aperture. ↑↑↑Comparison of the rear camera (left) and front camera (right) modules. ↑↑↑After disassembling the main camera (left), the internal sensor can be clearly seen. ↑↑↑Pixel XL's motherboard is welded with Samsung's 4GB LPDDR4 memory and Snapdragon 821 processor (red frame), Qualcomm's PMI8996 power IC module (khaki), Qualcomm's SMB1350 QC3.0 fast charging module (yellow), NXP's TFA9891 smart audio amplifier chip (green), Qualcomm's WTR4905 LTE RF chip (aqua blue), 3207RA G707A suspected Wi-Fi control chip (blue), and NXP's 55102 1807 S0622 suspected NFC control module (rose red). ↑↑↑Samsung KLUBG4G1CE 32GB storage chip (red), Qualcomm PM8996 power IC module (khaki), Avago ACPM-7800 power amplifier (yellow), Qualcomm WTR3925 LTE RF radio chip (green), Qualcomm WCD9335 audio encoder (aqua), Skyworks SKY77807 quad-band power amplifier (blue), Qualcomm RF360 dynamic antenna matching tuner (rose red). ↑↑↑The small motherboard at the bottom is relatively easy to remove, and the USB-C interface and microphone module can be directly seen on it. ↑↑↑The red box is Qualcomm QFE2550 dynamic antenna matching coordinator. ↑↑↑The USB interface has become the most frequently faulty component of smartphones. The USB-C interface on the Pixel XL small motherboard is completely exposed, which means that it can be easily replaced when a fault occurs. ↑↑↑Pick up the back of the phone, and then gently push the fingerprint recognition module with your fingers to the inside to remove it. ↑↑↑Close-up of the front of the fingerprint recognition module. ↑↑↑Close-up of the back of the fingerprint recognition module. ↑↑↑Pixel XL disassembly family photo. ↑↑↑Finally rated 6/10, the modular design is easy to repair, and the whole machine uses T5 screws. There are two risks in disassembly. One is the fragile screen, and the other is that the middle frame fixed by the buckle is very difficult to disassemble. If you are not careful, it will bend, affecting the sealing of the fuselage after reassembly.
