It's been over half a year since the iPhone 16 came out, and a lot of mobile phone repair technicians are still curious about taking it apart. A specialized group disassembled and examined the 128GB Apple iPhone 16 to find out more about its design, features, and what's inside.
For the design and physical features, the camera bump on the iPhone 16 makes the phone about 3.5 mm thicker. That means it costs more to make the camera. So, it's a good idea to get an iPhone Camera Lens Cover Protector for your iPhone 16. The layout of the rear cameras has changed from a square shape to a vertical one, but the speaker and microphone ports are still the same.
The screen of the iPhone 16 is a bit larger than the previous models. And the cost of the display system is around $10 more than some of its competitors charge. One of the big upgrades is that all iPhone 16 models now have a 48-megapixel main fusion camera system.
The great thing is that the iPhone 16 is still easy to take apart. All you have to do is unscrew the two screws at the bottom of the phone and gently heat up the display or the back cover .
Once you open the phone, you'll notice that the battery in the iPhone 16 is shorter but wider than the one in the iPhone 15. The front camera's specs haven't changed, but the board-to-board connector has been turned 90 degrees. The battery in the iPhone 16 has increased about 1 watt-hour capacity than the iPhone 15 battery.
The baseband modem has been upgraded too. It used to be the SDX 70M in the iPhone 15, but now it's the SDX 71M in the iPhone 16.
By now, you've probably realized that the display, battery, and A18 processor of the iPhone 16 cost more than those in older models. To help you see the iPhone 16 motherboard more clearly, we'll give you some really clear component annotation diagrams for the iPhone 16, 16 Plus, 16 Pro, and 16 Pro Max.
These new component annotations for the iPhone 16, 16 Plus, 16 Pro, and 16 Pro Max will definitely make mobile phone repair a lot easier.
The iPhone 16 still has several flexible cables for important functions, like RF Wi-Fi and sensors. All 12 cellular RF antenna tuners are on smaller flexible cables around the frame, which helps to use the space inside the phone more efficiently.
The iPhone 15 was estimated to cost around $450 . But with the new A18 processor and more RAM in the iPhone 16, the cost of the parts has gone up. However, the price of the display is still around $37.
