iFixit dissects iPhone Duo repairability and screen design features
Independent repair group iFixit has opened the new iPhone Duo to examine its internal components and repairability.
Screen texture masks crease
The device uses a matte nano-texture cover on the internal screen to improve readability in sunlight. This layer also helps hide the central crease by scattering reflections across the display surface.
Subpixel arrangement reduces artifacts
Microscope analysis shows oval-shaped subpixels arranged at various angles to minimize visual artifacts. iFixit believes this specific design further masks the fold line down the middle of the screen.
Hinge dust levels lower
Dust entered the USB-C port and speaker grills during testing but remained less than in other foldables. The site notes that noticeably less glow dust found its way inside compared to recent competitors.
