iFixit specialists disassembled the Apple Watch Series 10.

They reported that the internal structure of Apple’s thinnest watch has slightly changed. However, to remove the display, it still needs to be heated.

The components are so well assembled that the gap between the glass and metal is only 0.176 mm, which helps improve the device’s water resistance. Moreover, the antennas in the Cellular models are now integrated into the body structure.

The 46 mm version has a battery with a capacity of 1.266 Wh, which is comparable to the previous generation. Unlike the iPhone, the internal battery of the Apple Watch is attached with simple adhesive, which can be easily removed.

Access to other components requires removing a large number of small connectors and tiny screws.

An interesting point: Apple claims to have a new OLED display in the Apple Watch. However, iFixit’s observations revealed that the screen structure is almost identical to previous models. The sensors of the Apple Watch are located under all other components, making them quite difficult to replace.

Although iFixit praised the work done to reduce the size of the case, the specialists still rated the new device 3 out of 10 on the repairability scale. This gadget is still difficult to repair.
