iFixit teams up with former Apple engineers to teardown Apple Watch Series 7 - 9to5Mac
The teardown of the Apple Watch Series 7 was conducted by Instrumental, a company created by former Apple engineers – and most of them worked on early Apple Watch designs.The new 45mm version has a slightly larger battery with 309mAh, while the 44mm Apple Watch Series 6 has a 303.8mAh battery.
However, iFixit notes that the gains in battery life are almost zero since Apple Watch Series 7 has a brighter display that consumes more power.One noticeable change in this year’s models is the lack of the diagnostic port, which was previously placed between the battery and one of the watch band slots.The biggest change in the Apple Watch Series 7 is the display, which is now larger and has smaller edges.Former Apple engineers believe that the main reason why Apple Watch Series 7 has been delayed and has been facing supply constraints is the new display.You can find more details about Apple Watch Series 7 teardown on the iFixit website.
