The iPhone 16 features several design improvements aimed at increasing repairability, including a new battery adhesive that makes battery removal much simpler and safer.
With the new battery design, the once-fragile battery pouch has been replaced with a robust steel case, significantly reducing the risk of battery failure during repair.
iFixit's repairability score of 7 for the iPhone 16 is a marked improvement, thanks to changes that allow easier access to the device's internals, enhancing maintenance.
Apple's shift to a new adhesive that can be debonded with a 9-12 volt current simplifies the battery replacement process, addressing previous complications.
