iFixit has posted its teardown of the new Apple iPhone 14.
This is such a big deal that it should have been Apple’s big announcement—the iPhone has been redesigned from the inside out to make it easier to repair. In fact, just days before we started this teardown, iFixit’s very own Sam Goldheart argued that in this day and age, a product launch shouldn’t just rattle off tiny new features. Why isn’t Tim Cook bragging about repairability? We had no idea this was coming, because Apple didn’t mention it—at all. But they should have.
The big change with the iPhone 14 is the ability to open it from either side. This means that you can easily replace the back glass which was previously an expensive and very difficult repair.
iFixit has given the iPhone 14 a Repairability Score of seven out of ten, the highest since the iPhone 7.
Take a look at the teardown video below...
