Here’s the first iPhone 16 Pro video teardown


The iPhone 16 family was made official last week and went on sale today across the globe. Following an early unboxing video from a few days ago, we now have the first teardown video of the iPhone 16 Pro.

This shows how you can get into the inside of the device, and it’s through the back as for most phones. Compared to the iPhone 15 Pro, its successor’s motherboard is smaller and more densely packed, and the overall layout is quite different. There’s better heat dissipation too, but repairs might be harder due to the tighter space.

The camera assembly is larger on the iPhone 16 Pro than it was for its predecessor, thanks to the inclusion of the 12 MP periscope telephoto camera. As we reported yesterday, the iPhone 16 Pro’s 3,582 mAh battery is 9.4% larger than its predecessor’s 3,274 mAh cell. It’s also encased in a steel shell (unlike the iPhone 15 Pro’s), which may aid with heat dissipation.

The inner shell of the phone is made from aluminum and graphite. Apple says the new chassis improves thermal performance fivefold. The Camera Control button is not removable, being laser welded. The charging port flex cable has been separated from the microphone, so repairability has been improved in this regard.
