It is reported that the European Union passed a law last year requiring mobile phone manufacturers to ensure that smartphone batteries can be replaced by users using simple tools by 2025. In response to this regulation, Apple is working on a new technology designed to simplify the process of replacing batteries for users.

According to media reports, Apple is developing a new type of electro-inductive adhesive debonding technology that allows users to easily remove the battery from the chassis of the phone by applying a small amount of current. To be compatible with this new technology, the iPhone 16's battery design features a special metal casing that replaces the soft foil packaging used in the past.

It is reported that Apple plans to apply this technology for the first time on a certain model in the iPhone 16 series, and it is expected to be fully popularized in the iPhone 17 series next year.

However, even though battery replacement has become more convenient, users still need to turn on their iPhone when changing the battery. Since the screen of the iPhone is fixed by adhesive and screws, replacing the battery is not a simple task. Apple advises users to seek professional services when replacing the battery to ensure safety and the integrity of the device.

The development and application of this new technology not only reflects Apple's response to the new EU regulations, but also demonstrates its continuous innovation in improving the user experience.
