即使我们正屏息凝神的等待Mini和Max的出现,但我们至少可以从另外两个家伙开始拆解。让我们看看他们的葫芦里,都卖的是什么药吧:
-
具备新一代神经网络引擎的A14 仿生芯片
-
6.1英寸(2532×1170像素)的超视网膜 XDR OLED显示屏,具备原彩显示,HDR显示功能
-
Pro 级别的1200 万像素相机系统具备超广角(ƒ/ 2.4)和广角(ƒ/ 1.6)相机和远摄(ƒ/ 2.0)相机以及LiDAR扫描仪
-
板载存储为64 GB(iPhone 12)和128 GB(12 Pro)
-
5G(sub-6 GHz和mmWave)连接性,再加上4x4 MIMO LTE,802.11ax Wi-Fi 6和BT 5.0
-
MagSafe 15瓦 无线充电
-
防护等级提升到IP68级别,现在符合IEC 60529标准下,在最深6米的深度下保持长达30分钟而不进水。
-
-
-
过去已经足够了,让我们打开这些东西吧!
-
通常,第一个障碍是几个讨厌的五角螺丝,但我们已经做好武装并做好了准备。
-
几个吸引人的把手和三角撬片应该可以让我们相对轻松地玩耍——我们之前玩过这款游戏。
-
热情和耐心站在我们这边—这不是一种全新的开放体验,但是这里的拆解工程师在开放方面面临着各种各样的困难。也许重新配制了粘合剂,以提供额外的两米浸入保护?

在两个屏幕都关闭的情况下,我们玩“发现差异”游戏。 12在左边,12 Pro在右边。
-
除了摄像机护罩之外,从鸟瞰角度看,实际上没有任何主要区别。奇怪!
-
从好的方面来说,我们现在有一些很棒的壁纸。留意iFixit主页,在此我们将为iPhone 12和12 Pro拍一些原始壁纸。
The brightness difference is likely that Apple is multi-sourcing the display between Samsung and BOE on the iPhone 12. The BOE panel probably can’t meet the same lifetime spec as the Samsung panel, so Apple is limiting the brightness on both of them to avoid a scenario where some iPhone 12s can get brighter than others. For the 12 Pro they presumably went with 100% Samsung panels and took advantage of the better specs to unlock higher brightness.
Oui bien entendu ! Mais c’est pas le plus grave
Yes ….. But
-
-
-
啊!来了!移除掉相机罩后就可以看到这两款手机最大的区别:Pro 多出了一块东西。
-
我们再来关注下 12……这是?一片高科技塑料?
-
两款手机均配备1200万像素的广角和超广角镜头,分别具有 f / 1.6 和 f / 2.4 的光圈,而Pro 则更添置了一个 f / 2.0 的长焦镜头。
-
Pro的相机还具有其他优点,例如ProRAW,双重OIS,以及 LiDAR 带来的低光摄影优势。
Any information found about the LiDAR sensor? such as manufacturer, model, etc.
Where is the second loud speaker, or top front speaker? Thanks
It's on the screen side

这些模块化SIM卡槽非常适合维修,如果说有一点奇怪的地方,就是——SIM卡槽,主板和电池的所有侧面均与以前的型号相反。
-
两种型号的扬声器都用 Phillips 螺丝固定在适当的位置,以便进行更换,而且它们都非常容易地可以卸下。
-
当我们卸下扬声器时,我们会发现不同的地方:在扬声器网罩后面发现了明亮的橙色橡胶垫圈,而不再是粘合剂,就像我们在三星手机中经常看到的那样。
Are the sim readers interchangeable between 12 and 12 pro??
Hi Reynaldy,
They have different markings, but they are interchangeable!
I’m wondering if the QualComm Chips perform better than the Intel modem in my 8Plus? That’s the only reason to upgrade.
so no eSIM embedded beside the traditional pluggable SIM?
can the european version of the iphone 12 pro max take 2 physical SIM cards with the right “card holder”…it seems that in Asia they support this.
Was wondering, are the sim readers interchangeable for the China and non-China versions? Kinda thinking if it’s possible to convert a non-dual nano sim version into one!
Just bought a dual sim tray module and it works as a drop-in replacement to transform my iPhone 12 into dual sim. Using a dual sim module disables the built-in esim.

我们在机箱底部附近看到许多固定螺丝。幸运的是,我们的适用于iPhone的Marlin精密螺丝刀套件在这种情况下具有防撞螺丝刀。

它与12和12 Pro中的Taptic Engine完全相同,在我们的测试中可以互换使用,并且比我们在普通iPhone 11中看到的小,而且还有更厚的Smidgen。
It appears the iphone 12 pro's taptic engine is actually bigger than the unit on the 11 pro, but smaller than the unit on the standard 11? (According to this: https://youtu.be/ZYyW6X3u6DI at 5:08?)
And did they serialize it like they have been on the previous models?
What is this tiny metal box in on the mother board consist of or what’s it’s purpose?
It has a serial numbers and a QR code which refer to nothing on the internet;

在电池下面,在我们期望的位置贴上可释放的粘合剂,就像你开车时熟悉的音调一样。 12 Pro和12 Pro每个都有四个选项卡,它们的表现均与预期相同。

不过,可能会发生变化的一件事:Apple提供的小巧,脆弱的“开始”部分。这些是什么,拉蚂蚁的选项卡?
-
我们已经听说过12和12 Pro使用的电池完全相同。这样说(戴上检查眼镜)是的!两块电池我们都可以看到10.78 Wh。
-
与11和11 Pro相比,这分别是11.91 Wh和11.67 Wh的明显降低。但是高效的新型5nm工艺A14芯片可能弥补了这种差异:根据Apple的官方规格,电池寿命丝毫不受影响。
Same question that i posted about the taptic engine. Are these serialized as well? When you swap them did you get an immediate message about the phone unable to verify its a genuine battery?
Hi Rob,
Yes, the batteries are serialized! We swapped the official batteries between the two iPhones and got a “Not a genuine Apple battery” warning in the menu.
I posted this in the general comments before seeing the comments section for each step so am re-posting the same comment here…
On your 11 Pro Max teardown (and maybe on the smaller Pro teardown as well) you gave us thickness (4.6mm), volume (23.8 cubic centimetres) and weight (59.6g) numbers for the internal battery. I’d be really interested in seeing those three numbers for the 12 Pro battery and, when you do the teardown for the 12 Pro Max, for that battery as well. Thanks.
“…iPhones. Rumors pointed to Apple using cheaper parts to offset the cost of 5G, and this seemingly bears that out.”
Or you could argue that Apple used a more expensive but more power efficient 5nm processor to remove the need for a larger battery and thereby lose the unpleasant stress point in the larger L shape battery. It just depends on what you want to see.
And while we are on the subject, why do iFixit still not sell spare parts for your own products. You’re so keen that everyone else should for theirs, but you don’t.

MagSafe无线充电阵列是其中最明显的代表,最终用我们的眼睛看到它是很酷的。磁铁纸也可以,但是X射线要好得多。
-
不,我们没有在右侧的iPhone 12 Pro X射线上添加黑色边框。与iPhone 12上的铝制框架相比,这是不锈钢框架的结果——钢更致密,因此在X射线照片中更加不透明。
This seams to indicate the camera modules are in fact completely different, and it even looks like the regular 12 doesn’t have stabilization on the top module.

我们从主板上断开了许多电缆的连接,幸运的是,它们仅被两个单元上的三个螺丝固定。我们的马林(Marlin)螺丝刀将驶入最后一杆。
Logic board seems to be connected to a flex cable that runs along side of the battery. Should both parts be removed together?
Similar question. The cable that is attached to the back of the logic board that runs along the side of the phone and battery, is it permanently attached to the logic boards or is it just adhesive?
The cable is soldered on the back of the motherboard, so you need to remove them together.

I think the A14 is layered over LPDDR4X, not LPDDR4 as this article currently indicates. Your previous teardown of the iPhone 11 Pro shows the A13 over LPDDR4X and the teardown of the iPhone XS shows the A12 over LPDDR4X. It is unlikely that Apple has reverted to LPDDR4 for the iPhone 12 Pro.
The Micron MT53D512M64D4UA chip is better described as an LPDDR4X SDRAM. According to the Micron DRAM Component Part Numbering System the MT53D prefix decodes to (MT = Micron Technology, 53 = LPDDR4, D = 1.1V Vdd / 0.6V Vddq), LPDDR4X is identical to LPDDR4, except that the I/O voltage (Vddq) is reduced to 0.6 V from 1.1 V, which appears to be the case for this chip.
There are a lot of Skyworks Sky5 RF chips that you didn’t mention (at least 5 chips!). There are two chips next to Avago chip. Another two chips are close to Qualcomm modem. There is one more on A14 motherboard. Because the picture’s resolution is not high enough, I can’t tell other RF chips on A14 motherboard. I think you guys have better chance to see more detail.
Trying to figure them out still. I labeled everything I can and is waiting for iFixit approval.

There is a connector at the corner on the bottom half of that board that isn’t included in the UK 5G version of the phone, is this related to the US version only for 5G connectivity? There is still an unpopulated ribbon connector solder area still too.

我们的美国型号随附一些漂亮的5G mmWave天线模块-一个嵌入在框架的侧面,另一个嵌入在主板的背面。
-
嵌入在框架中的天线是USI产品,标记为339M00104 S30U7FH。
My guess for having 2 mmWave antennas in the specified locations is 2 possible use cases, because of the nature of mmWave signals being easily blocked. Either it's in your hand and the side antenna is blocked but the rear one is open, or its sitting on a table or something and the rear antenna is blocked but the side one is open. Maybe?

I’m planning on buying a US version to use in the EU (Ireland in particular). Would there be any disadvantages to doing this? Thanks.
I would double check that the US iPhone supports the bands (particularly mmWave) that the EU uses. I seem to recall something about mmWave bands being incompatible, and honestly other than that there isn't really any point to getting the US version instead.
Sharing some information to you guys about mmWave antenna. There are three mmWave antenna in iPhone 12 series. One is on right hand side under the power key with antenna open window, the second is on the back side which mount on mother board, the last one is on front side which is above receiver. As you can see one unknown part above receiver with four small squares pattern and connect to mother board. That is the third mmWave antenna module.

你以为我们没有忘记神奇的 MagSafe 充电阵列,对吗?线圈并不是什么新鲜的东西,但是那18个磁铁肯定是新的。
So what i meant, if look at the side view of one ring segment, i think it are basically 3 magnets next to each other, this would be stack able to connect the same structures above:
+ - +
- + -
maybe also only the first 2 „virtual“ magnets are used wich get more like your picture but i think you have at least to put in polarity on the side view, and if they have it also on top view you have to draw it in 2D..
The linked polarity diagram is definitely incorrect. These magnets are non-standard and have a dual set of poles for EACH magnet (The outer ring is North up, and South down, and the inner ring of the magnet is South up and North down).
Check out page 86 of the Accessory style guide. https://developer.apple.com/accessories/...
Hi David,
Thanks for the awesome resource! You’re right—our polarities are reversed when it comes to the standard magnet colors, and it is missing the non-magnetized zone. We will fix that asap.
It is missing the 2 dimensionallity of the magnets..

mmWave再见,高5G到处!此拆解是一个总结。
-
它正在塑造成为5G世界,而苹果正处在其中。看来他们必须做出一些严肃的设计折衷,才能为闪亮的5G新组件腾出空间。恰当的例子:过去的主板和电池增益都消失了。他们将被错过。
-
“瘦弱”的电池,相对来说技术含量略低,不再是优雅的L型。逻辑板的尺寸膨胀,放弃了近年来的小型化优势。 Taptic Engine看起来更小,扬声器是一种新的形状-可能不会减少,但会有所不同。
-
TapticEngine较小,而扬声器则是新形状——可能不会减少,但会有所不同。
-
从整体上看,这并不是“一千个死亡”,但看到这种新兴技术的让步很奇怪。在所有可能的苹果创新中,这是最没有创造力的。
-
但!至少新的5G挖掘与苹果的可靠屏幕和电池维修程序没有什么区别。 在给分数打分之前,还有一件事。
As stated above, for the 12 pro it appears the taptic engine is bigger than the unit in the 11 pro.
Also one of the first things I noticeded on my 12 pro was the speakers, they seem tinnier and not as loud. I have to test them next to my 11 pro before I sell the 11.

Really happy to see that Apple is bringing back Magsafe to at least some of its products. I wonder if it’ll eventually lead to completely sealed phones with no physical connector (and therefore no connector wear), but I think that would make data recovery harder.
Magsafe (or any other magnetic connector) is really convenient and pretty durable. I wonder why Apple abandoned the standard for a while.
Magsafe for macbooks is the most intelligent charger connector ever made, illogically they stop using it, I agree with you, is good to see they're bringing back the idea. Regards the fully close devices, can be done and use external pogo connectors (or whatever are they called, the copper dots on some devices/tables to attach keyboards)
We’d love to know the dimensions of the magnet array on the phone. What is the inside diameter? What is the outside diameter? What is the length of the line of magnets? What distance from the center of the magnet ring does the line of magnets start and stop?
Concerning the charger itself…. What is the inside diameter of the ring? What is the outside diameter of the ring?
It would be great if you had a precise scale reference in a straight-on photo of the magnet array in the phone.
Thanks for your work!
Page 91, this info is not difficult to find.

Could you probe the magnet ring with a small magnet to see if the polarity alternates?
Agreed! Also can we get a teardown on the magsafe charger? Just probing my charger with a small magnet it looks like it has one outer ring that is one polarity and an inner ring that is the other polarity.
Can you please confirm if apple switched to qualcomm modem chips and dropped intel in the iphone 12 series?
and also which qualcomm chip x55 or x60 maybe
That magsafe charger just peaking open is killing me! Don’t leave us hanging on it! Also, please don’t forget to teardown the usb-c connector. It’s quite large and maybe has the USB PD chip in it or something…
I want to see if the display chip on the pro model is actually 120hz capable and if the one on the non pro is different. It would be neat to see if Apple actually put in everything necessary to activate 120hz later since the pro panels I believe are capable. Also it would be cool to see how they improved water resistance this year yet again. And maybe seeing if they added any better thermal dissipation system since the 5g chips are gonna get a lot hotter than previous chips and plenty of android phones have had really good cooling for awhile.
For those asking, Apple published a revision to their Developer Style Guide for physical accessories that includes all of the information you could need about the MagSafe standard.
Please do teardown models for US (for mmWave)!
Are you going to be tearing down the US-only mmWave iPhone 12s, or the international ones, or both? I want to see if the battery capacity is any different.
Hello! Our EU team has taken apart a set of iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro phones, while we tore down the US-only pair. We can confirm that they all use the 10.78 Wh rated battery.
Apple is using a braided copper coil in the charger. I believe they are the only ones doing this.
This is normal. It’s called “litz wire”, you can read about it on wikipedia. It mitigates the “skin effect” that causes electrical losses to be higher at high frequencies.
-The stranded wire in the coil is called “litz wire”, it’s not regular stranded wire, it’s a bundle of separately insulated strands for the purpose of avoiding the “skin effect” for high frequencies.
-The etched copper sticker looks like it’s an RF antenna for near field communication. Ethan Zuo pointed out that eliminating hardware connectors would make data recovery harder but I believe we will eventually find out that this new magsafe standard is not only for charging but also a high bandwidth data connection that can serve the “console” functions like data recovery. So basically just as good as a physical connection.
Hi David,
Thanks for the cool bit of info about litz wire! As for the copper sticker, I originally hypothesized that it was some kind of RF antenna also. I’m not so certain now—if you look closely at this photo, you can see that the sticker traces were attached by four flex wires. These wires route underneath what seems like a very brittle disk (maybe ferrous?), where they attach to the underside. It looks like they’re not attached to any active components. I wonder if it’s some kind of RF/magnetic flus resonance, efficiency, or shielding system.
The copper sticker is almost certainly for NFC. The ring animation that was shown during the presentation when the phone is connected to the MagSafe charger is done through an NFC handshake. This is also how the phone knows it can try and charge at the higher wattage. NFC is also how the phone shows the ring animation for MagSafe cases (my red case creates a nifty red ring animation when I put it on).
I would guess that the iPhone 13/14 will eschew a physical connector and instead use a combination of the NFC from MagSafe and a version of the U1 chip (maybe a U2?) for high-speed close range data transfers without needing a physical connection. I don’t think we will see that type of high-speed data transfer on the 12 however as Apple looks to get MagSafe accessories out there.
What is the matte colored area on the right side below the power button?
A window for the 5G mmWave antenna. See steps 2 and 13, only the US models have this.
Have you guys tried attaching the camera module from the 12 to the 12 pro to see if it works? Most probably the only difference between the two boards are one or two config resistors that will because obvious once China leaks the schematics.
Mihai Zaim - 回复
Even if it plugs in, firmware differences will likely prevent using the additional hardware, and the opening for the LIDAR and extra camera appear to be part of the case
Tony -
Hi Mihai,
We did! The non-Pro camera connectors have some missing pins compared to the Pro camera connectors, but they fit the Logic Board sockets. When we swapped the camera modules in either direction, both normal and wide-angle cameras worked, but were locked in 1x zoom—which locked the telephoto camera from activating.
what nfc controller is in the iphone 12/12 pro?
Could you check this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FY7DtKMB... Some people are saying that the iPhone gives a message and makes features unusable when swapping out parts. Apparently only Apple can now Swap out parts since the iPhone tells you that parts are not genuine and can detect third party or even own party components which have been swapped out.
Hi iFixit !! I wanted to know if you notice any upgrades on the back cameras, particularly on the stabilization?? Being and iPhone user and motorcycle rider don’t go hand in hand with iPhone 11 . I was wondering if I would be able to mount the 12 Pro or high frecuency vibration will ruin the camera stabilization as it has done with my current iPhone.
Do they still work with the 5G antenna removed? #tinfoilhat
oh yes Could you probe the magnet ring with a small magnet to see if the polarity alternates?

I really think it deserves a lower repairability score. Sure, most things are modular, but with the 12 series Apple has paired most important components to each logic board. These components either lose functionality or flash a message that the components aren’t original. Now added to this list with the 12 is the camera which, you guessed it, is now paired to each iPhone. This is a massive F You to many independent repair shops because now you can’t replace the battery without losing many major features. Even with genuine original parts and pairing serial numbers makes no difference. It seems like the amount of parts paired increase with each generation of iPhone, and it’s only going to get larger. We as consumers cannot repair the phone that we own, so do we really own the phone? With all of this said, I think the phone deserves a four at most. I mean I don’t work at ifixit so this is just a suggestion, but with all of this new BS we shouldn’t give Apple any benefit of the doubt.
On your 11 Pro Max teardown (and maybe on the smaller Pro teardown as well) you gave us thickness (4.6mm), volume (23.8 cubic centimetres) and weight (59.6g) numbers for the internal battery. I’d be really interested in seeing those three numbers for the 12 Pro battery and, when you do the teardown for the 12 Pro Max, for that battery as well. Thanks.
Dear ifixit team, please consider the following video and try to test out the really reparable of the new iphones!
I think that this fact should be consider in the score of reparability!
I guess you will have to correct the repairability score to 0 if it is confirmed that replacing parts even with original and genuine i-phone 12 parts causes many artificially created issues with the camera, face id and the battery… Check this great video by Hugh Jeffreys! He basically mixed parts of two phones and ran into serious trouble:
Ben bu ekranı cepmarket com tr ye yaptırdım, çok şükür gayet iyi oldu tavsiye ederim kızlar
Are you able to identify who’s the OLED panel manufacturer? There’s been a widespread OLED issue on some of the iPhone 12 series panel.
I heard from some bloggers online that it was LG who made the panel, because these same problems (such as green edges) have happened to LG panels before in various phone manufacturer’s products.
Wait, the Lightning connector assembly is color-coded? That’s something new…
score should be 0, you cant switch the battery or camera.
Based on what you observed from this tear down, what is the impact of having some gap between screen and rim in some of the spots? Does it compromise IP68?
E.g. see here
If I’d read-on before my comment at the top (first opportunity) of this page, I would’ve seen your mention of the ‘huge asterisk’ and link to (I’m assuming here) the explanation of that asterisk. With the components being somehow ID’d to eachother and the logic board, and no instructions how to reestablish full functionality of All features AFTER a replacement of any component/module, how is this a 6?! It’s a ZERO. Maybe a one, since you can perform the mechanical operations related to Hardware repair/replace. Bud certainly, if you’re left with less than 99% (waterproofing may not be achievable?) of a repaired device, this doesn’t seem like even a 6…

Please help. I am very confused wit the RAM.
Apple has moved from LPDDR4X DRAM to LPDDR4 SDRAM. Is this a downgrade or an upgrade, can’t find the answer anywhere!
iPhone 12/pro got a Repairability Score of 6 out of 10 on ifixit.
making it the most Repairabile phone for this year and the year before it.
is this a joke !! now I know why they have "i" before fixit
you can’t replace the screen/camera/battery without getting an error notification only apple can repair this phone no one can the phone was not meant to be repaired by a third party repair like random shops,a phone owner or ifixit.
How many LDIs are located in the 12 pro? Is it just the one on the SIM card tray?
Hii apparently my bottom microphone broke on a brand new just a few weeks old iPhone 12, I was trying to see where it is on the images as on the repair center they told me it’s more likely we’ll have to request a new device, arent those modular? what would have to change if I wanted to repair it somehow? Thanks a lot!
hi, isn’t iPhone 12 yet in warranty?
jacopo -
I would like to see how you remove the ear speaker from the screen.
I’ve tried to find the answer, however my research has pulled up no results.
Is the microphone for the iPhone 12 attached to the logic board and cannot be changed without replacing the logic board itself?
Much appreciated…
Mat
If you mean the main microphone for phone calls; that’s on the charging port assembly (little golden thingy). (There are more mics in the phone for noise cancelling.)
Kann man Magsafe auch einfach ausbauen? Ich bin leider auf einen Herzschrittmacher angewiesen.
Hallo Nicolas, wenn ich das richtig verstanden habe, geht es mehr um die Magnete, als um Magsafe selbst, oder? Dann wird das wohl nicht gehen, ohne die Inneren des iPhone zu zerstören. Tut mir leid.
Unless something has changed in the past two weeks, a youtube channel bought two brand new 12’s and upon swapping components between the two, experienced multiple malfunctions. Starting with the logic board, simulating every component being replaced, then JUST swapping camera modules- to no avail. It seems the modules are ID’d to eachother and the logic board making DIY and third-party repair seemingly impossible without additional software-related steps being performed to “authorize” the replaced components …
