Well, in the iPad Pro 10.5 inch model this empty space is located on the bottom side of the enclosure.

Indeed, the display panel’s logic board occupies this space. In the last iPad Pro teardown, however, no extra space was needed.

Is there really so much unused/empty space on the left side of the enclosure or am I missing something here?

And could you provide the battery ratings for Apple Pencil 2?

Charging coil is now made of copper for efficiency and shorter charging times: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdMV7c0e...

Why didn’t iFixit include this?

@ifixit You did not reveal that mysterious chip on the display panel.
