This isn’t really news, so I’m not going to take up your time. Chipworks, the guys who not only take apart devices, but also put chips under the microscope to find out how they’re made, has discovered that the temperature and humidity sensor inside the Galaxy S4 has a pretty neat engraving. It features a Space Invader from the classic 70s arcade game.

Why did Sensirion, the makers of the chip, do this? Because why not?! 😀
