Earlier this week, the brand new, redesigned 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pro went under the knife as the iFixit crew went through the teardown process. That was just a preview of what was to come, though, and now we finally have the full teardown.
Apple's 140W charger that ships with the 16-inch MacBook Pro uses GaN technology that enables higher wattages, complex internal designs and smaller footprints.
We live in a world where, if you go to Apple's website right now and order a Polishing Cloth with the company's logo on it, you won't receive it for 10 to 12 weeks. That's mid-January of next year. But, before you make that purchase, what if we told you that you can't repair that cleaning accessory? Would that matter?
Yesterday was the big launch day for Apple's brand new 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pro models. So, of course, it wasn't going to take the fine folks over at iFixit long before they started taking the new hardware apart. Apple made some changes, both on the outside and inside, and today's teaser of the teardown reveals only a hint at what's to come from the big reveal.
While Apple didn't appear to go out of its way to brand the Apple Watch Series 7 as the biggest update to the smartwatch to date, there are quite a few updates. That includes the slightly larger case sizes in comparison to the previous model. And we can't forget the larger display, thanks to those slightly smaller bezels. The whole thing still looks like an Apple Watch, but it's got some important alterations. And now we've got a look under the hood, too.
New devices, new teardowns. That's what we can expect from the crew over at iFixit, and, sure enough, the trend continues. Today, the teardown experts have taken apart Apple's newest and smallest tablet. Along the way, they even describe what some are calling a "major issue."
Last week, on iPhone 13 launch day, the crew over at iFixit took a little peek under the hoods of the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Pro. That initial teardown revealed a few noteworthy things, but it wasn't meant to be the full view. For folks waiting to see what's inside Apple's latest smartphone, though, the wait's finally over.
iFixit usually has a pretty speedy turnaround time for teardowns after a new product launches. That's certainly the case with iPhones, as there is generally a lot of interest in that sort of thing. If for no other reason than to see the latest repairability scores. This year isn't any different, and the repair crew offered up an initial look at what's under the hood for both the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Pro.
Not too long ago now, Apple's newest iMac went on sale. And, as should be expected these days, the crew at iFixit got their hands on one and promptly went to work taking it apart.
Late last year, Apple announced the newest member of the AirPods lineup: AirPods Max. The over-ear headphones are not cheap by any means, but, based on the reviews, the headphones are at least comfortable and sound great. But is the premium design present both inside and out?
Repair experts over at iFixit have now posted their full teardown analysis of Apple's miniature 5.4-inch iPhone 12 mini, revealing a few interesting details about the entry-level device.
A user in China posted on the country's microblogging site Weibo images of an iPhone 12 Pro Max that has been torn apart to reveal a 3,687 mAh battery inside the device.
