Apple iPhone 16 to Feature Easier Battery Replacement

New technology aims to comply with EU regulations and enhance user repairability for future iPhone models.

Apple is developing an 'electrically induced adhesive debonding' technology to simplify battery removal.
The iPhone 16 will be the first model to potentially feature this new battery replacement method.
This move aligns with recent EU legislation requiring easily replaceable smartphone batteries by 2025.
Apple's changes include a redesigned battery casing and a more lenient repair policy.
The company aims to make the iPhone 16 one of the most repairable models in its history.
