iPhone 16 achieves high scores in teardown video thanks to new quick-remove battery

TheiPhone 16and itsPluscounterpart have now been released in the absence of the shiny newbattery shieldpresent in the higher-end16 ProandPro Max. Nevertheless, the vanilla members of the new flagship series have a feature all their own that might make up for that.

The Cupertino giant has now released a new iPhone 16Battery Repair Guidethat confirms the presence ofelectrically-inducedadhesive under the device's battery, in place of the dreadedpull-tabsas usual. Apple claims that it is possible to "hot-wire" this glue with nothing more than a simple 9V battery connected to red and black crocodile clips.

They need to be connected to a new silver tab on the battery and a grounding screw found on the nearby speaker array respectively for the debonding to take place.

iFixitconfirmed that this protocol works as part of its new iPhone 16 teardownvideo, noting that it can also work with other up-to-30W power sources, somepower banksincluded.

The new kind of battery glue, thought to be supplied byTesa, is extremely incalcitrant without the use of its electrochemical properties, as discoveredby Phone Repair Guruduring another 16-series teardown.

Nevertheless, the new feature has earned the iPhone 16 series an iFixit score of 7/10. The 16 Pro and Pro Max have yet to challenge this achievement; however, with their traditionalpull-tabs, they are unlikely to score such a win for their reparability any time soon.
