Vivo Xplay6 Teardown

Vivo Xplay6 was launched in November 2016. It has a 5.46-inch touchscreen display with a resolution of 2560 x 1440.

The Vivo Xplay6 is powered by a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor and comes with 6GB of RAM. The phone has 128GB of internal storage, which cannot be expanded. As far as the cameras are concerned, the Vivo Xplay6 has a 12-megapixel primary camera on the rear and a 16-megapixel front shooter for selfies.

Vivo Xplay6 runs Android 6.0 and is powered by a 4080mAh non-removable battery. It measures 153.60 x 73.40 x 8.20 (height x width x thickness) and weighs 178.00 grams.

The connectivity options include Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, FM, 3G, and 4G. The phone’s sensors include the proximity sensor, accelerometer, ambient light sensor, and gyroscope.

Before the beginning of dismantling, the first step is removing the SIM slot to prevent damage to the fuselage in the disassembly process.

Remove two screws beside the Micro USB port.

The hyperbolic glass is pasted together with a white gasket and then secured with the metal back cover.

Insert a guitar pick between the back cover and fuselage and slide it along the edge of the fuselage.

After removing the back cover you can see the motherboard, battery and other internal parts, the motherboard was covered with a metal shield.

There is a large area of graphite thermal paste inside the back cover but no injection NFC antenna, which may still not have an NFC function.

The back cover and the middle frame are combined with a rubber strip, which not only makes the body tighter, but also prevents dust from entering the body.

The inner edge of the metal back cover has some antenna contacts.

The whole motherboard is almost all covered by a metal shield.

The interior design continues with the more common three-stage design, but after dismantling, we found another mystery: the phone’s design is more complex than that of any previous mobile phone.

The camera module is located in the center of the motherboard shield, and two cameras are mounted on a separate metal module. The flash is installed on the motherboard.

The top of the motherboard has some metal contacts.

The SIM card slot is also covered by a large area of the metal shield.

The bottom is the sub-board, fixed with the plastic baffle. From left to right, respectively, are the speaker, Micro-USB port, call microphone, and 3.5mm headphone jack.

Remove the plastic baffle can be seen after the sub-board, the speaker is located on the baffle, through the contacts with the sub-board.

The sub-board is relatively simple, with fewer chips, and the front has two cable interfaces.

First, remove the metal shield; the battery cable is under the metal shield.

Unscrew the screws to remove the metal shield. We can see most of the main chips on the motherboard are covered with the metal shield, and part of the shield is covered with copper foil to help heat dissipation.

There are some cables on the front of the motherboard. We will be removed one by one.

First, disconnect the battery cable to ensure that there will be no circuit damage due to a short circuit.

The lithium polymer battery has a capacity of 4000mAh and a nominal voltage of 3.85V.

The battery is fixed on the middle frame using double-sided adhesive. First, pull label 1, and then pull label 2. Then, you can easily remove the battery.

Disconnect all cables from the bottom board.

The back of the motherboard has a large metal shield and is covered with copper foil.

The TI BQ24192 is a battery charger IC.

Disconnect all cables from the motherboard and remove all screws securing the motherboard.

Removing the motherboard, the metal shield is covered with a large area of copper foil, and through the thermal grease connected to the middle frame, this design will better conduct heat to the middle frame to help dissipate heat.

The front of the Xplay6 motherboard also has two large copper foils.

The Xplay 6 has a 12MP and 5MP rear camera. The 12MP camera uses the Sony IMX362 sensor, which has 4-axis OIS optical image stabilization and a lens aperture of f / 1.7. The two cameras are attached to the metal frame with glue, which is quite strong.

The front camera was 16 million, and it was equipped with a soft self-timer and soft light fixed on the motherboard.

After ripping the copper foil on the back of the motherboard, you can see the SoC chip with a lot of thermal greases.

Remove all metal shields from the motherboard.

The Samsung K3RG6G6 0MMMGCJ LPDDR4 memory chip is located on the back of the motherboard. It has a capacity of 6GB and is packaged with a Qualcomm MSM8996 Snapdragon 820 underneath. The chip is powered by a 14nm FinFET process and features an Adreno 530 GPU.

Like the previous generation, the Xplay6 also uses three op-amps but upgrades to the OPA1622, which is a Burr-BrownAudio amplifier from Texas Instruments. It’s an upgraded version of the widely used OPA1612. The Xplay6 audio circuit is rather unique, with three op-chip arrangements in the sub-board and connected to the motherboard via cables.
