Why do some phone manufacturers dramatically over complicate board layouts?

Why do some phone manufacturers dramatically over complicate board layouts?

Both phones have basically the same specs

Which one are you claiming is over-complicated? the board on the right probably has all the same shit on it its just under those emi shields.

Notice that one of them is half the size.
That's why.

>that case

So YOU'RE the person they make those for.

MUH THIN
MUH SEXY

Ones at a smaller architecture ?

>what is refined processes
>what is cheaper to manufacture
>what is as if you're capable of engineering dinner for yourself

having a large board most likely mean less circuit layers = cheaper

Does anybody want a lumina 822 screen?

>those pajeet nails
user, no.

nice catch, looks like a goblin foot

Are you selling it?
Which ribbon cable did you break ?
Im Assuming you wrecked it.

The screen is fine, the micro USB port is fucked, and the only way to replace it is to take off the old solder hiding it in place, and resoldering a new one in, but that costs more than the value of the phone, plus I don't have the tools to do it anyways

We do that kind of work for $40 where I work. Just look around.

Maybe so that you have to send it in to them to do repairs, or just buy a new one? My guess is they want to take money away from local cell phone repair shops.

OP what the fuck

Because designing circuit boards is a mathematical problem that can be solved in an infinite number of ways.

Think of all the ways to say, code a program. If multiple people are given the same task, individually, they will come up with wildly different ways to write the code.

like apple?

>lumina
LUMINA LUMINA LUMINA LUMINA

The cleaner it looks, the harder it probably is to assemble.
