iFixit is gearing up for one of traditional teardowns of the new iPhone 13 models, but ahead of that full teardown, iFixit has done a live event to give us a first glimpse inside the refreshed devices.
As we’ve seen in prior inside looks, the new iPhones have smaller, square-shaped Taptic Engines, and the iPhone 13 Pro has a smaller, denser logic board than the iPhone 13 along with an L-shaped battery and a larger internal camera module.
Battery capacities were unveiled earlier today, and iPhone 13 models have larger batteries across the board. The iPhone 13 mini has a 2,406 mAh battery, the iPhone 13 has a 3,227 mAh battery, the iPhone 13 Pro has a 3,095 mAh battery, and the iPhone 13 Pro Max has a 4,352 mAh battery.
iFixit’s live teardown is interesting for those who want to see a step-by-step deconstruction of the device, but there’s not a lot of new information to learn at this point. iFixit plans to publish a more in-depth teardown next week, which should give us some more insight on the internal components.
