I’m already looking forward to replacing the iPhone 16’s battery.

Check out this image from Apple’s battery replacement manual for the iPhone 16. With the 16 and 16 Plus, you can now use electricity to remove the adhesive that keeps the battery in place. That’s just cool as hell.

The 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max are stuck with boring, more traditional pull tabs.
