The latest iPhone 16 Pro teardown video on YouTube channel REWA Technology has provided interesting insights into the internal structures of the device. A detailed disassembly of the smartphone revealed important innovations and technical changes that differentiate the iPhone 16 Pro from its predecessors, especially the iPhone 15 Pro. From the new battery structure to improved thermal conductivity, here you can find out everything the new model has to offer.
If you're curious about the technology behind the new iPhone 16 Pro, this article is for you. A teardown video shows what hardware changes Apple has made to improve the performance and durability of the device. The main focus is on the metal-encapsulated battery, which confirms last year's rumor. But that's not all: other internal design changes have also been revealed that affect the heat generation and general efficiency of the device.
The metal-encapsulated battery – a game changer?
One of the most important details revealed in the iPhone 16 Pro teardown video revealed were (via MacRumors), is the new metal-encapsulated battery. This battery is significantly different from the model used in the iPhone 15 Pro. The iPhone 16 Pro's battery has a capacity of 3,582 mAh, making it slightly more powerful than the 3,274 mAh battery in the iPhone 15 Pro. Particularly noteworthy is the metal casing of the battery, which provides better stability and possibly also improved heat dissipation. This metal casing confirms previous rumors and sets the iPhone 16 Pro apart from the other models in the series.
Interestingly, the iPhone 16 Pro uses the classic adhesive pull tabs to remove the battery, while the standard iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus models have introduced a new process in which the adhesive can be removed using a low voltage (for example from a 9-volt battery). However, this innovative method does not seem to be used on the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max.
Improved heat dissipation and internal design
Apple has emphasized on all four iPhone 16 models that it has made internal design changes to improve heat dissipation. This is a crucial point for users who have high demands on the performance of their device. The teardown video shows that the iPhone 16 Pro has a larger thermal pad compared to its predecessor, the iPhone 15 Pro. This contributes significantly to the device generating less heat during intensive use, such as gaming or using resource-intensive apps. In addition, the metal-encapsulated batteries could also contribute to improved heat dissipation, as metal dissipates heat more efficiently than conventional materials. This is particularly relevant for users who want to get the maximum performance out of their iPhone.
More compact motherboard and other changes
Aside from the battery and thermal conductivity, there are other internal changes in the iPhone 16 Pro that are worth mentioning. The device has a more compact motherboard that is better arranged and optimized compared to the iPhone 15 Pro. This could have a positive impact on the space utilization and possibly also on the performance of the device. Even though repair website iFixit is yet to publish its own teardown analysis, the findings so far suggest that the iPhone 16 Pro is a well-thought-out evolution of its predecessor. Apple seems to have made more than just cosmetic changes here, but has specifically worked on the efficiency and durability of the device.
iPhone 16 Pro: Improved technology for a stable user experience
The iPhone 16 Pro brings exciting new features through its internal innovations, such as the metal-encapsulated battery and improved heat dissipation. These changes could not only improve the performance and lifespan of the device but also provide a safer and more stable user experience. For anyone considering switching to the new model, the teardown video offers valuable insights and confirms that Apple is once again focusing on quality. Stay tuned, as there will certainly be more exciting details to come from repair experts like iFixit that will further round out the picture of the iPhone 16 Pro. Whether you are a technology lover or a curious user - the new iPhone 16 Pro has a lot to offer and could be a worthwhile upgrade for you. (Image: Apple)
