iPhone 15’s Internal Design Surprisingly Repair-Friendly
Initial concerns about the iPhone 15’s streamlined construction potentially hindering repairs have been largely allayed by a recent teardown conducted by iFixit. The analysis suggests the new design may be more service-friendly than initially anticipated.
new Architecture Focusing on Availability
Apple’s revised internal layout is key to the improved repairability. the iPhone 15’s core structure centers around a large battery surrounded by a supporting frame. Crucially, most other central components – including the chipset and logic boards – are positioned above the camera module. This approach achieves a slimmer profile without significantly compromising access for repairs.
The design contrasts with previous iPhone models where components were more densely packed, making disassembly and repair more complex.This new arrangement provides greater physical separation between key parts, simplifying the process of replacing individual components.
