The iPhone 7 speaker ships with a leash stick-on Wi-Fi diversity antenna that connects to the logic board.

Waterproofing alert. The speaker's output duct fits over a rubber speaker grille gasket for an added layer of ingress protection.
This design is nigh identical to the one we unearthed in the iPhone 7 Plus a couple hours ago.
The duct also has a fine mesh in case the speaker grille doesn't do its water-blocking job.
The SIM eject tool ,pushes on a plastic pin, that pushes a metal pin, which in turn, ejects the SIM tray.
Apple added a rubber gasket around the SIM tray.
You can Now remove the logic board to take a closer look at some silicon.
If you look closely, you'll see minor differences in connector sizes and locations, post holes, and screw locations between the logic board of iphone 7 and 7 plus.

After logic board is out, its free to pick out the Lightning connector assembly.
Prying up the light adhesive went well, but our first tug was in vain. There are some extra screws in this port.
It seems like Apple has taken our warning to heart. Without a headphone jack to bear the burden of audio connections, this port will get a lot more wear, and it's been well reinforced.
Other denizens of the Lightning cable an antenna, two  microphones, two speaker grille plugs, and the Lightning port.
Scraping the bottom of the barrel phone case,  snag an antenna flex cable.
Also, a spidery mess of button cables. They're thin and fragile and tricky to remove intact, but they also snuggle up to a lot of waterproofed components. 
With the rear case nearly stripped, turn attention to the volume buttons that gave some trouble in the 7 Plus.
Persistent tugging with some tweezers rewards with a broken retaining flap, but this button cover still won't come quietly.
Next out is this weird c-clip looking thing.
And the button finally comes off, With two tiny gaskets, Apple is serious about this waterproofing.
This three-part mechanism is much more difficult to disassemble than the button covers, but hopefully the seal it provides means this removal procedure will be needed less frequently.
After some peeling, free the earpiece speaker and an all-new 7 MP FaceTime HD camera with deep trench isolation and auto image stabilization.

This is quite the upgrade from the 5MP FaceTime camera in the 6s.
The earpiece speaker is no slouch either, having been upgraded to serve as a second loudspeaker for legit stereo sound.
Also pluck out the solid state mini touch sensor, home "button."

  These adjustments are similar to 42LB7DF Because this is not a hot chassis, it is not necessary to use an isolation transformer. However...
