Title: How to Replace the Battery in an iPhone X – A Step-by-Step Guide
Introduction: Hi, it’s Simon here. Today, I’m going to walk you through the process of replacing the battery in an iPhone X. Battery issues can be quite a hassle, especially when your phone doesn’t hold a charge or if the battery is visibly swollen. So, let’s get started on how to fix this common issue.
Tools You’ll Need:
- Pentalobe P2 screwdriver (0.8 mm)
- Metal prying tool
- Tri-wing screwdriver
Steps for Battery Replacement:
- Remove Screws: Start by using the Pentalobe P2 screwdriver to remove the two screws at the bottom of the iPhone.
- Cutting the Adhesive: The iPhone X is water-resistant and sealed with adhesive all around. Use a metal prying tool, inserting it only a little bit, to carefully cut through the adhesive.
- Opening the Phone: After cutting the adhesive, you can open the phone and flip it to your right.
- Disconnecting the Battery: Use the tri-wing screwdriver to remove the screws securing the metal bracket over the battery connector. Then, gently disconnect the battery cable.
- Removing the Battery: The battery is secured with three adhesive strips. Carefully pull these strips out. It can be quite challenging as they are prone to breaking.
- Installing the New Battery: Once the old battery is out, you can position the new battery in place. I recommend not using the excessively sticky adhesive that originally comes with the battery as it can make future replacements difficult.
- Reassembling the Phone: Reconnect the battery and other connectors. Replace the metal bracket and screw it back in place. Finally, close the phone and press the edges to reseal it.
Conclusion: Replacing the battery in an iPhone X can be a bit tricky, especially due to the strong adhesive used. However, with patience and the right tools, it’s definitely doable. Remember, it’s always important to be gentle and cautious during the process to avoid any damage to your phone.
