The Morning After: Apple enters the 5G era with the iPhone 12

#Tech

New iPhones have arrived, so as you would expect, while we reviewed the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro, the team at iFixit pulled out their tools and pried them open. Inside, shockingly, they found phone parts, plus a few new magnets to support the MagSafe charging setup.

What they didn’t find is a battery that’s the same size or larger than last year’s devices. To squeeze 5G modems inside those slim shells, something had to give and several components took a backseat to save space. In our review Chris Velazco noted that the iPhone 12’s battery life doesn’t quite match what we saw from the iPhone 11 -- hopefully the sacrifice is worth it for faster data connections.

NASA works to secure the OSIRIS-REx asteroid sample

Good news / bad news.

TAGSAM

The OSIRIS-REx spacecraft successfully snatched a sample from the surface of an asteroid this week. However, as we know from every heist movie ever, the getaway is the tricky part. NASA scientists look at pictures of its TAGSAM capture module and have determined it’s leaking pieces of the sample. They suppose larger rocks may have wedged a flap open, and are adjusting flight plans to help secure the sample within the spacecraft before it flies back to Earth.
