🔧 Required Tools

Step-by-Step Process
Step 1:
Remove the device from any electrical source and make sure it is powered off.
Put picks around the corner and move them along the edge to pry the case off.
Once there is separation between the case and the screen, place a pick in between the screen and on the corner of the back case.
Step 2:
With the corners lifted, take the opening tool and pry each corner off.
Repeat this for the corner diagonal from the initial corner.
Once both corners are pried off, gently take the back case off the device.
Step 3:
Using the iFixit opening tool, disconnect the battery from the circuit board.
Step 4:
Slowly and gently, pull and remove the 3 adhesives under the old battery.
Remove all 3 by pulling the adhesive, signified by a black flap with white adhesive. You will know it is removed when the adhesive has come out from under the battery and you are now able to move the battery.
Step 5:
Remove the old battery from the device using the opening tool.
If necessary, clean under your old battery and then insert the new battery with new adhesive to ensure the battery stays in place.
