Unpacking the iPhone 16 Pro: A Peek Inside the Latest Apple Device

The iPhone 16 Pro has been the talk of the town since its release, and now, a teardown video by REWA Technology has given us a glimpse into what's inside this sleek device. One of the most notable features is the metal-enclosed battery, which confirms a rumor that surfaced last year. With a capacity of 3,582 mAh, this battery is slightly larger than the one found in the iPhone 15 Pro, which had a 3,274 mAh battery. The metal-enclosed battery is not the only new feature in the iPhone 16 Pro. Apple has also made some internal design changes to improve heat dissipation. The teardown video shows that the device's chassis has a larger thermal sheet compared to the iPhone 15 Pro, which could help the device stay cooler. Additionally, the iPhone 16 Pro's logic board is slightly more compact than the one found in the iPhone 15 Pro, which could make it easier to repair.But what about the rumors of a new battery removal process? According to Apple, some iPhone 16 batteries use an adhesive that can be easily loosened with low-voltage electrical current, such as from a 9V battery. However, the teardown video did not test this process on the iPhone 16 Pro, and it appears that the device still has adhesive pull tabs, which suggests that the new process might be limited to the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus.
