Apple said the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus models have been redesigned for easier battery maintenance, as well as improved thermal management and performance.
Changes include introducing new technology that makes battery replacement less difficult for professional service technicians.
In early 2023, it was learned that the European Union plans to introduce legislation requiring easier replacement of batteries in devices by 2025. The updated design of the iPhone 16 is likely Apple’s response to these future demands.
While details on the exact changes remain scarce for now, experts like iFixit are expected to provide a clearer picture with the upcoming testing and teardown of the device.
