Seems like you could make the skin pretty straightforwardly in a home-shop. You'd just need to 3d print TPU and embed some high quality magnets (you can remagnetize your own pretty easily probably, not cheaply though? https:/&#x

This analysis misses kinda a major point. The nice thing about making mobile SOCs is that the yields are more forgiving. If you have 1000mm^2 of silicon that you're slicing into 10mm^2 dies, each defect (of which there will be many o
