Apple Watch Series 10 teardown reveals disappointing repairability


The Apple Watch Series 10 launched last month and now it’s finally time for us to take a look at one from the inside. That’s because iFixit has published its video teardown of the 46mm version, and it is quite fascinating.

To get into the watch you need to take advantage of a gap that is .176 mm across, and just pry, pry, pry, and keep on prying – having previously applied heat. The teardown reveals the 327 mAh battery capacity, and also the rather gigantic size of the Taptic engine – it’s like a third of the battery’s size.

Speaking of the battery, it’s held in place by glue – just the normal type, nothing fancy. The sensors are very hard to repair, and the sheer size of the Apple Watch makes any repair very difficult in fact. That’s why iFixit has only given it a 3 out of 10 repairability score, where 0 would be least and 10 would be most easily repairable.
