iFixit has begun their teardown of Apple’s iPhone XR, which launched today in Canada and other countries worldwide.

iFixit says the inside of the iPhone XR looks “like a fun hybrid between the 8 and the X.” The iPhone XR has the best battery life of any iPhone to date, according to recent reviews by the media.

iFixit has discovered the iPhone XR has a modular SIM card module. This means if you need a new SIM card holder, it can be replaced instead of the whole motherboard.
