What is up with the "super thin" madness on mobile devices?
Thanks for the information. That the internals have the same thickness is really interesting.
Well it was just figuratively speaking, but generally the thickness of the components in phones is very similar between different models of today's flagships because it's all just NAND flash on a PCB alongside a battery. However in the end the above still applies, because you can only make phones so thin that the back is right up against the components and battery, only way left to make the phone thinner is to make the housing thinner, so the metal itself that holds the phone together becomes thinner and thinner as companies continue to push out thinner phones because that's what people want. When that metal gets to the point that it's too thin for the surface area it covers, we have #bendgate
