iPhone 16e Teardown Reveals Larger Battery, C1 Modem, and More

REWA Technology's teardown video reveals the internal components of Apple's new iPhone 16e. The phone features a significantly larger 4,005 mAh battery, a 12% increase over the standard iPhone 16. This translates to a 15.55 Wh battery capacity compared to the iPhone 16's 13.83 Wh. A new adhesive allows for easier battery removal using low-voltage electricity. The teardown also showcases the A18 chip and C1 cellular modem on the logic board. Repairing the A18 chip is reportedly more challenging than previous models. Notably, the iPhone 16e lacks MagSafe magnetic charging capabilities. The iPhone 16e is now available for purchase after a successful pre-order period. Customer deliveries began today in Apple Stores. The video provides valuable insights into the phone's internal design and repairability.
