iPhone Air: Surprisingly Repairable Design

iFixit's teardown of Apple's iPhone Air reveals a surprisingly repairable device, scoring a 7/10. Its thin design incorporates a unique camera plateau housing part of the logic board for better protection. A 3D-printed titanium alloy USB-C port and easily replaceable battery (same as the MagSafe battery pack) contribute to its repairability. While the titanium frame is bend-resistant, weak points exist due to plastic gaps for cellular interference. Apple's use of custom chips (A19 Pro, N1, C1X) and improved repair accessibility further enhance the iPhone Air's score.
