Just like new vehicles...the average guy can't work on one due to lack of knowledge and/or tools! In my opinion, it's well worth the $110 I paid to have the battery replaced!
@@jeffcharlesaerialphotograp1367 Of course it's worth while to pay $110 for a new battery if you have no choice. Point taken. But there is no real reason to make it so complicated to swap out the very component that is the most likely to degrade over time. Imagine if all battery operated devices were so designed.
Compared to the iPhone 8 this is way more complex. It is true, the real yearly improvements are the added difficulties to changing yourself the phone’s battery
I tried the 7+ replacement kit, little did I know I was being too harsh and tore the screen connectors. now I’m watching this on an iPhone 11! There’s a little story for ya 😂
I replaced battery on my iPhone 7 Plus but ripped the ribbon to the Taptic Engine so had to buy one off ebay and reopened it all all again. Wasn’t much to get a new one but it’s far too easy to catch or twist the ribbons. If you ever see a video and it says rest the Taptic engine still connected just take it out and save you the hassle 😂
Despite what you’ve heard, replacing your iPhone battery is extremely easy. All you’ll need: a spent nuclear fusion rod, a single tear from the Virgin Mary, 5 circus monkeys, a current written statement of consent from Steve Jobs, at least 10 years of bomb disposal training, and a blood sacrifice to Cthulhu.
Just did this myself, it wasn’t too bad. It was a little disappointing that you guys didn’t film the speaker installation again after you forgot to add the grounding clip. Otherwise it was an easy installation.
@@rafaelmendesbaratait’s just to make it easier to take the adhesive off the bottom of the battery. Notice how he put them all back in before putting the new one in? It’s because he didn’t need that space. I’m sure you don’t have to take all that out, but how hard is it to just get a parts tray so you don’t lose all that stuff?
I love watching videos about fixing things and always learn something. Sometimes I learn how to fix something myself. Other times, like after watching this video, I learn that it's better, for me, to have it fixed by a professional.
Yes, but it only cover defect batteries. People who use their iPhone heavily, play heavy games every day and fast-charge it every night might have lost a few percentages on the battery health.
How are you able to do this with the new battery lock software Apple has in their update? For iPhone 8 models and up whenever i try to replace the battery i get a message in setting saying “This battery is not genuine” following by the percentage going down to 0% and the phone not charging then boot looping.
yep.. samsung back in the day even made a lot of ads bashing apple sheeps since apple never had a easy replicable batteries.. so those ads were made for people like you 😂
This video is is missing a step. Got stuck at the Speaker Removal step because my iphone 11 has a component in between the speaker and the taptic engine that doesn't appear in this video. This is the Taptic Engine Connector Tape. Carefully lift from the bottom right corner using tweezers to remove and expose the screws beneath.
65$ for the battery in Canada and 5-7$ for each of the screwdriver and it will cost the same as from the apple store and will sum up to 130$. Can you suggest why should we do this on our own and not from the apple store and why you provide the battery along with all the tools for 55 USD and not similar pricing in Canada ?
Guys be very careful when removing the batterys adhesive if it breaks and u start bending the battery. I just made it and my iPhone 11 works with the new battery. But i think I damaged the NFC wireless charge flex cable. So be super careful only bend battery in top and bottom not under in the middle!! Super awesome guide man btw step by step perfection!! :)
Hey, I just did this. Took about 4 hours. Would I do it again? Definitely not! Apple is making it more and more difficult for the average consumer to do it themselves. Thank you for the video though! It was extremely helpful! I don’t recommend anyone else doing this. Just pay someone else to do it for you. It’s not worth your time and money!
Really sad this is the last iPhone that still allows third party to replace it, because the new iPhone 12 is bond with software, if you change the parts, the phone will not function normally or not at all.
Out of curiosity the whole lower bracket/taptic engine/Speaker removal is it critically necessary for the repair? as you guys put everything back before placing down the battery, or is it more about a clearance issue/room for work with the battery?
I won't speak for iFixit, but based on other iPhone battery repair videos I've seen, it's a lot easier to remove the pull-tabs with those components removed. With them in-place, it's much easier to break the tabs, which will make it a lot harder to get the old battery out without causing damage.
10:30 (in the morning) 71% 14:20 31% of battery (Battery health 86%) Is that good for Iphone 11 pro? I use 10w power adapter (i use it because my phone does not heat up while charging). Im thinking about changing the battery in next 3-4 months but not in Apple but rather in store that i bought the phone (they also change batteries) If somebody changes battery on my 11 pro will the phone be as good as before (in terms of feel like when u touch the back of the phone)
why must you remove all the items first just to remove the battery, but can insert a new battery after all the parts are back in? Does this specific order help to save the data on the phone? Great video, easy to see and described well.
Hi! i have my iphone 11 stuck on 70% charge after replacing the motherboard should i change the battery or is the replacement motherboard defective please help.
Replaced my first battery at Apple. My second battery is now at 81% health, and I’m not replacing it again, I’ll just upgrade soon. US based with an international trip in a few months, will buy it there for the SIM slot.
Question sir! If you replace the battery 🔋 of a water and dust resistant iPhone, will it still be the same from the original that the phone was never been open? Like the quality of the IP rating?
I'm not familiar with what your talking about. Is there an extra step missed? I'm assuming it's to certify that it's Original equipment from apple not aftermarket. I've not heard of this before, please elaborate.
I appreciate this!!! I’ve been thinking of fixing and replacing my battery as it’s current maximum capacity is 74% aaaa no I’ve noticed it’s been dying much faster lately. To take it to a replacement shop is expensive, so I’d prefer doing this myself. Very informative and simple to follow! Saving me like $200😂
@@ju4n831 Google. And pricing from local places. A lot of these places charge a ridiculous amount of money to do the battery transfer..And either way, comparing to that price it’s still saving you an easy 60-70 dollars since the replacement kits on amazon are only 25-30
My iPhone 11 Pro Max is stuck in a boot loop randomly during normal usage. It randomly booted to home screen and I got to settings then it turned off and back to boot loop. There was no spinning logo so I think it’s a battery issue and not a hardware issue. On your website it states a battery replacement may fix a boot loop.. how likely is this? Also my battery capacity was 83-84% No physical damage to device and no sim liquid indicator triggered
I hope EU stays away from enforcing product design on companies. It’s enough if battery is replaceable easily at authorized repair - which in iPhone’s case it is. Also, recycling must be in order. It makes no sense to enforce removable batteries on devices which need typically only one battery replacement during their lifespan. If you need extra capacity during travelling etc. then an external battery or a case is much more convenient. Just let authorized repair replace the battery for you and don’t worry about it.
Samsung galaxy cover pro Motorola E6 Plus Nokia 2.2 LG Tribute Empire Have all removable battery. When battery bad or drained, you can replace it in few seconds.
Out of curiosity, what is the point of these repair guides when the device hasn’t been out for a year yet? Unless it suffered accidental damage or was modified, any battery issues (along with any other issues) are covered by the 1 year warranty... you still have 3 months and then some left.
Alessandro Neiva Because modern phone battery tech has advanced heaps since the iPhone 6/6s days... the iPhone 6/6s has a bad battery by today’s standards. And the fact that you charge your battery from 0%-100% twice a day isn’t helping your situation either. In fact, it actually kills the battery much faster.
So I did not see you startup the phone on the video. I hear that you get a message that says your iPhone cannot detect the battery and it is obnoxious?
I’m getting a message when Zi try to update my phone that I’m no longer connected to the Internet. Is it because I replaced my parts with non-Appple parts?
I wish speaker adhesive gaskets were available because it’s a necessary component for the water resistance aside from the gasket around the display. But I’ve just been using rubbery liquid adhesive and topping it off with conformal coating and that seems to do the trick
The adhesive is what makes your phone waterproof/ stay to together stronger. If you’re not worried about that stuff then yeah you can just clip it back together.
Yes. The battery stores all the information in your phone. Same as a car battery. If you change the battery in your car it will lose all the information to make your car run. Never change a battery in anything. Do not watch this video.
I took my phone to a mall repair shop (not authorized) after repair the usual message comes up saying it's a unrecognized battery. The Face ID does work anymore tho my settings say the tru depth camera has been damaged and it has disabled faced id.

But Face ID was working perfectly fine before the phone was opened up. He proceeds to show me that the front camera works therefore Face ID works but correct me if I'm wrong that is not the tru depth camera that the settings is talking about.

Hey sorry for the late reply, but no, Apple does that on purpose to make independent repair shops look bad. Face ID not working was done ON PURPOSE if you don't have your phone serviced directly by Apple or just cave in and get a new phone. You did the right thing supporting an independent shop, but just know that was done to persuade you otherwise. Other than face ID, your phone should work fine.
I just got mine 11 battery replaced cause my capacity got down 78% and it was free with apple care services i plan on keeping this phone for a little longer
My 11 Pro is on 94% already, it’s pathetic. I’d honestly prefer if they didn’t include the fast charger and just stayed with the standard one because I bet it’s the fast charger that’s causing the battery health to go down
I did a battery replacement But have been getting notifications that it’s unable to verify that iPhone has a genuine battery and that the health information isn’t available Do you know why that is ?

Hey sorry for the late reply, but no, Apple does that on purpose to make independent repair shops look bad. Face ID not working was done ON PURPOSE if you don't have your phone serviced directly by Apple or just cave in and get a new phone. You did the right thing supporting an independent shop, but just know that was done to persuade you otherwise. Other than face ID, your phone should work fine.
OK, this does not look like the easiest thing to do.
I just got mine 11 battery replaced cause my capacity got down 78% and it was free with apple care services i plan on keeping this phone for a little longer
Okay can anyone tell me if third part batteries are good ? And last long ?
looks very informative but its either i buy new Iphone or just look for someone who can replace mine.
Very good detailed video. Some steps could have been omitted.
well, the iphone 4 battery replacement is easier iirc.
Would this be cheaper than getting it replaced at best buy for 80$?
yes
Hey iFixit, I dare you to make your own phone that is easy to repair
My 11 Pro is on 94% already, it’s pathetic. I’d honestly prefer if they didn’t include the fast charger and just stayed with the standard one because I bet it’s the fast charger that’s causing the battery health to go down
Don’t worry about it. Just have Apple or any *authorized* repair shop replace it when it goes really bad and you get another 2-3 years of use.
yep, thats why i always used pc usb charging
I did a battery replacement
But have been getting notifications that it’s unable to verify that iPhone has a genuine battery and that the health information isn’t available
Do you know why that is ?
I want to change my battery also. But I’m worried about the battery notification to verify that’s it’s a genuine part.
How easy is this to do without all the ifixit stuff?
Hairdryer a no no?
Excellent!!
A phone that requires a neurosurgeon to open. Neurosurgeon: - I would rather go back to skulls.
I am from Algeria looking for a motherboard for iPhone 11 is it available
Can we do this on iphone 11 pro?
These videos are published as a documentation for the fix rather than mimicking a true scenario for a replacement case
Hello,is it possible to damage the screen ? Like im an overthinker and i think that if they (store where i bought the phone) change the battery the display wont be the same like before... babaha
I replaced the ba’ ok I’m lying I dinnit. I had somebody replace it for me long story but now I have this message in my settings implying that I have a fake battery. In other words it’s not the Apple brand. Is there a way to fool my phone into thinking it’s an apple battery?
