iPhone 16 Plus repairability

The back-glass unit includes the flash and wireless charging coil, while battery and screen have separate procedures.

What to check before buying

Replacement parts
Battery, screen and rear glass each have replacement guides.
Repair documentation
iFixit treats the back glass as an assembly with the flash and wireless charging coil.
Rear-glass unit
Flash and wireless charging coil are part of the rear-glass assembly.

Rear glass

iFixit treats the back glass as an assembly with the flash and wireless charging coil. A rear-impact repair can therefore involve more than a plain glass sheet.

Battery and screen

Battery replacement calls for new battery and back-glass adhesive. Screen replacement requires new screen adhesive; these jobs use the Plus model's instructions.
