iFixit dissected the iPhone 13 Pro to see the big changes inside

iFixit continues with its “abdominal surgery” series, and the star on the operating table this time is none other than Apple’s newly launched iPhone 13 Pro. Through this dissection, we can see the big changes inside the iPhone 13 Pro, especially a huge new battery and changing the position of the components above to help narrow the part. rabbit ear groove.

iPhone 13 Pro Max and iPhone 13 Pro.

iPhone 13 Pro is still equipped with an L-shaped battery like the iPhone 12 Pro, but with a larger size. The battery of iPhone 13 Pro has an energy of 11.97 Wh, larger than that of iPhone 12 Pro is 10.78 Wh. iFixit says it can replace the iPhone 13 Pro’s battery easily, but will still have a warning message.

iFixit says that Apple has shrunk the notch of the iPhone 13 Pro, by moving the speakerphone from behind the screen to the top edge of the device. This change also makes replacing the speakerphone more difficult than before.

The lighting cluster and the point projector of the Face ID sensor on the iPhone 13 Pro are combined into a single module. Thanks to these changes, the notch on the iPhone 13 Pro is about 20% narrower than before, but the height of the notch remains unchanged.

iPhone 13 Pro, like all iPhone 13 models, still use adhesive to stick the screen part. Therefore, disassembling and replacing the screen is also quite easy, like previous iPhone models.

The rear camera module of the iPhone 13 Pro is larger and more convex than the iPhone 12 Pro. In addition, the arrangement and LiDAR sensor remain unchanged. However, iFixit has yet to give a rating for the repairability of the iPhone 13 Pro.
