简介
Our iPhone 7 Plus is still on the chopping block, but we just can't help ourselves—it's time to look at Apple Watch Series 2. The Series 2 looks all-but-identical to the newly rechristened "Series 1"—but is it the same on the inside? With added features such as built-in GPS, waterproofing, and a variety of new bands and cases, Apple's new wearable was destined for the teardown table. It's time to see if this "ultimate device for a healthy life" has what it takes to go the distance in terms of repairability.

视频概述
-
-
我们的手表正在变得越来越智能——让我们来看看最新一代的Apple Watch带来的新特性吧。
-
具备Force Touch功能的第二代OLED Retina显示屏
-
定制的SiP工艺的苹果 S2芯片(系统级封装)
-
内置GPS + NFC + 无线网络802.11b/g/n 2.4 GHz + 蓝牙4.0
-
加速感应器+陀螺仪+心率传感器+麦克风+扬声器+环境光传感器
-
防水等级(最高50米)
-
WatchOS 3
-
-
-
有了从初代Apple Watch收集到的和我们运用iOpener的专业知识,我们准备好破除粘合剂拆开屏幕。
-
一个小刀,一个撬片和一个富有进取心的勺子让我们进入内部。
-
-
-
从外面看, Series 2有着和上一代非常相似的外观。但当看向内部时,我们发现一套ZIF(零插入力)连接器取代了去年使用的奇怪的按压式连接器。
-
在显示屏的背面,我们找到了隐藏着完整主控硬件。
-
Apple 343S00092
-
20211CP TD1628A
-
NXP 67V04 NFC Controller (also found in the iPhone 7 Plus)
-
-
-
我们从手表主体上滑动取下剩下的表带并开始探究电池。
-
和具备蜂窝通信能力设备的电池支架一样,这一块被不友好的三角螺丝固定。幸运的是,我们的64合一螺丝刀套装足以胜任这项任务!
-
利用我们的撬棒熟练地撬动,切断手表供电。
-
-
-
哇哦,就像我们说的,如果它看起来像真的,那么它有可能真的是。
-
相比去年的Apple Watch,第二系列的电池下表面的使用的粘合剂足够粘住一个iPad的屏幕了。
-
我们从来对一个棘手的情况让步,这次也不例外。我们反复从电池上剔、捅、拨、拉粘胶,清理干净然后揭示它的秘密。
-
-
-
-
用一个塑料开启工具揭开手表边缘与原先的型号相似的中发现的Force Touch传感器和垫片。
-
和2015款的相似,Series 2使用Force Touch来感应屏幕上的向下压力。我们最早在13英寸Retina显示屏的Macbook上遇到苹果使用这项技术。
-
和去年的型号不同的是在Force Touch垫片上隐藏着一个单独的芯片
-
Analog Devices A07149 电容传感控制器
-
-
-
在外环上,我们找到了一个复杂的电缆组件,连接到一个麦克风。
-
Apple Watch Series 2试图在水的飞溅的同时保持干燥。这就需要垫片和O形圈必不可少。
-
这些垫片和O形圈有什么用呢?它们让Apple Watch Series 2满足ISO标准 22810:2010 50米防水要求。这意味着它在水池里会完好无损,但是在特定情况下可能会失效。
-
-
-
我们最终到达了期待已久的被树脂外壳包裹着的Apple S2 SiP.
-
在SiP的背面,夹在左上角,我们发现一对微小的组件:
-
博世BMP 280气压传感器
-
可能是上一代Apple Watch中迭代的意法半导体C451陀螺仪+加速度计
-

Here we go ....! The best part of staying up late is to be the first to get hands on teardown these little monsters packed with loads some of the most intricate and advanced pieces in tech manufactured to date
Hmmm... does this mean the Apple Watch might actually be repairable by repair shops? The display looks a lot easier to take apart. Minus the likelihood that repairing it may render it not "swim proof" anymore.
True I've had loads of issues before while repairing the Apple Watch specially with the glue that becomes almost useless the minute you pop the screen off and not to forget the tiny metal bracket holding the display and digitiser flex in !! This indeed looks repairable
I've never repaired it, but I was warned not to. Perhaps now this will change with a few ZIF connectors.
It isn't as easy as it looks ! I was warned by many too ....I infact ripped one of my first motherboard flex cables off in the past ...by curiosity didn't stop me ! You always get it right the next time ! I'd suggest on picking up one of the demo units from eBay to try your stunts right as they are as low as $100 to see your first teardown come off and then you can repair your customers watches easily after you tear one down for yourself
