Next to fly free is the headphone jack, which we find encased in a little rubber sleeve. Hmmm.

While we've been watching carefully for signs of life waterproofing, this small sleeve alone doesn't indicate whether Google might be preparing for rising tides.

Moving along, we pull out the front-facing (i.e. selfie) camera. This 8 MP, ƒ/2.4 camera is up 3 MP from its counterpart on the 5X, but still maintains the same 1.4 micron pixel size.

We snap a few photos of our new-found peripheral friends and head for the core.
