Sony Xperia Z1 is taken apart, reveals same back cover design as its predecessor

A teardown of the Sony Xperia Z1 revealed that the back cover of the device is the same as the one found on the Sony Xperia Z. The newer model is slightly better protected from water and dust than the Xperia Z is. The Sony Xperia Z1 is the first of a camera-centric line called "One Sony," and as such it sports a 20.7MP Sony G lens.

Unless you are a whiz with tools, we don't suggest that you attempt this. Think about that bicycle you tried to assemble for your kid's birthday and the leftover screws that you didn't know what to do with. Not only will your warranty be voided, the odds are that you will be left with a bricked phone.

If you like to see these handsets taken apart, the safe way is to sit back with your smartphone safely tucked away in your pocket and your eyes firmly glued to the slideshow below.
