Read the post: goo.gl/gNg0bo --- We know about the exteriors of our phones, the design language and the build materials. But what about the insides? If you take one apart, what do you find? Let me explain.

Man when you go through them all, it really feels quite impressive that even the cheapest phones fit all this inside :o

Thanks Gary, could you also explain how image sensors capture light and process it to create images.

The engineers who have made this complex technology available deserve more recognition than what they get

I REALLY liked this video which made me understand so much in a super simple way. Thank you so much to Mr. Gary & to Android Authority for this video.

Gary you should do a video on Antennae design. How we have come from the the little pullout antennae in the 90's to the totally concealed fractal designs today that can handle Wifi, Bluetooth, NFC, GSM and CDMA signals.

Great video! You managed to pack in so much info without it being too much to take. Thanks :)

Hey Gary, I have a request. Could you explain how mobile hot spots on smartphones work? How do they differ from public or home wifi? What's the difference between bluetooth tethering and just turning on the wifi hotspot? Very curious.

Thanks that was interesting, nice to get a video on the technical side of the phone, not to keen on a lot of Android Authority output, but Garry's output is the stuff I like to see

Seeing that laptops are getting thinner and smaller, and phones are getting larger, how close are we to using laptop grade components in phones?
