iPhone 16 Pro teardown gives us a look at the metal battery case
With the iPhone 16 out in the wild, we've finally learned all the secrets of Apple's 2024 lineup. We already have real-life battery tests that show how amazing the iPhone 16 battery life is and why the 16 Pro Max won't necessarily win duels with its main Android rivals. The first drops hinted that the ultra-slim iPhone 16 Pro bezels need protection; otherwise, they'll need repairs.
Speaking of fixing the new handsets, the professional iPhone 16 teardown from iFixit revealed they're a lot easier to repair. The teardown also showed us the electric adhesive Apple is using to glue the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus batteries.
The same disassembly session also revealed that the iPhone 16 Pros have batteries enclosed in metallic cases. But there's a brand new clip that shares more information about this technology.
Apple has indeed equipped the iPhone 16 Pro with a metal battery, but that's it. The iPhone 16 Pro Max doesn't have one. Moreover, neither Pro model features that new electric glue tech we've seen in iFixit's videos.
