Today, let’s start tearing down the Huawei Nova 2s, which was launched last week. The phone has a high appearance and is designed to appeal to young people.
First, remove the SIM card tray. It is made of plastic and is of good quality.
Then, remove the glass case on the back. The phone consists of three layers of materials, including a metal middle framework, a plastic cushion layer, and a glass case on the back. The cushion layer in the middle aims to prevent the metal middle framework from directly squeezing the glass when the phone is dropped. The Huawei Nova 2s’ cushion layer is fixed by screws, and it can’t be directly removed.
After taking out the glass case on the back, we can see many screws inside. The phone’s motherboard is connected to the vice board via FPC. It is easier to remove the back case since the fingerprint reader module is placed on the front.
Remove all BTBs and FPCs. Be careful when removing the mainboard and sub board, as they are held in place with glue.
The phone’s internal structure is simple. Most components on the motherboard are covered by the shield cover and heat shield. I have removed a piece of CPU inside. Two FPC colors differ from each other. The motherboard and vice board colors are also different.
After the teardown of the Nova 2s, we have to admit that the internal design of most current Chinese smartphones, which are aimed at attracting young people, is better than those phones in the past.
