One less hole through which water or moisture can creep in.
Also, it will be interesting to see whether there is a void in these devices for the SIM card and SIM card slot. Thinking of the possibly apocryphal story about the Steve, the iPod and the aquarium (https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2011/10/in-pr...) I think Steve would have required it to have a completely different PCB, so that this version could be a bit thinner or have a larger battery.
