iPad Tear downs - why can’t they discover frame/structure improvements?

[pdoherty]

I’m wondering with the issues from unresponsive screens and the fragility/bending of iPads why the people that are tearing iPads apart to look at the internals can’t address that aspect as well?

That is because there are no improvements to the frame.

Or bending isn’t as widespread as we think . . . Or just tolerated by the majority until failure of display or internals . . . Could be any number of reasons.

The fact they went back to square sides instead of the sloping/skinny edges gives me hope they reinforced things. I’d just like to see someone who’s already tearing them down compare.

Back to square? As opposed to what? The frame is the same as the 2018 pros, same shape

Which was a change from the 2017 and prior iPad Pros.
