[@thebettin]

Thank you so much!!! I am a 67 year old female that just changed her own iPhone battery without any problems! Great demonstration video, replacement battery and repair kit!

[@ScandiTech]

Congratulations on your new battery!

Nice work! Never to old to try something new. Bet that felt great to get accomplished 💪🏼

[@francesandjerryengland7365]

This video really helped!!! Mental note: Listen to the video once right before doing the battery replacement. I listened to it plenty of times before I got the nerve to finally order a battery kit. Then I followed along while replacing it, forgetting all the small stuff I had watched a few weeks prior (I almost blew away my screws with the blow dryer!). I didn't order the kit in here because I didn't find it right away on amazon. This kit had a few more tools than the one I received. Mine was missing the black pry tool and the tweezers. If you're worried about removing the screen, trust me... it's worth it! And it's not as hard as it sounds in your head. There is a slight click when putting the strips back. The only sound I can compare it to is baby snaps on newborn clothes. Very very light click.

[@susansu9463]

Just replaced my battery successfully. I appreciate getting all the tools and supplies needed in an affordable, professional package that arrived quickly with detailed printed and video instructions and support from a responsive seller. I skipped removing the screen and just held the phone open below 90 degrees. I agree with previous comment to pull the tape straight down towards the home button instead of trying to work it around the corner and apply the tape to the battery first. Also, my new adhesive strips would not come off the blue backing. I messed up all the strips provided but I managed to get an inch or so of tape on the phone to stick the battery down. I noticed putting the screen back down the battery presses up a little, but no issues with performance and I keep it in a tough case so hopefully it won't become too much of an issue. We'll see how the battery performs.

[@kevinmuzikar2037]

Extremely helpful video. Follow these instructions and take your time and you should be setup for success. It took me about 40 minutes, but about 8 of those minutes were spent trying to get the screws back in after I was "complete". Two additional tips I would give: 1) Think about your hand positioning. Don't block your light source and don't make it overly difficult where your hand is bumping the front assembly when you're trying to unscrew the cover plate. 2) Pull straight with the tabs towards the bottom (charge port) of the phone instead of going around the sides. If you pull at a low angle, with constant but light pressure you might get lucky like I did and have both strips come off without ripping. Good luck!

Hey I gotta an question, my Iphone battery is horrible like it goes down way to fast. Like it’ll be on 80% and then 5 mins later it’s on 5%. When u change the battery does it help with that?

[@gilesmf]

I watched several videos to replace the battery and this one is the best overall. All videos insisted that you remove the screen. This one gave me the knowledge to remove the battery and replace it (successfully) without removing the five connectors attached to the screen. I used several books to ensure the screen did not tilt more than 60 degrees. It is somewhat tricky but with patience is not overly difficult. Appreciated, thanks.

[@sharmzm30]

I got very stuck, do not pull the strips around the corner, pull them straight down. it snapped off and I had to use brute force to pry the battery off! kitchen spatula came in very handy. Apart from this very informative video, thanks!!!

[@davidprice2861]

This is one of the best guides I have seen on the subject, Excellent narration especially regarding tips, techniques and explanations for the inexperienced. (short, sharp, but complete). Thanks..

[@MeccaDawn666]

Thank u so much this helped me replace the battery easily with your instructions

[@alexhydrummer]

Perfect. Thank you man. Very helpful. Took me about 45 minutes. Would have been about 30 minutes, this was because once I reattached the front screen I must've not clicked one of the bands into place all the way. Once I tested turning it on, the screen was all whacked out. So I went back in, reconnected all the bands and it worked perfectly. Great walk through. And I agree, tearing the adhesive to the side is easier regardless of what the other commenters are saying.

[@DongusEddy]

Just changed my daughters phone battery! Her phone wouldn't charge and was told it needed a new 'motherboard' at a cost of £150 at a phone shop in Queensway W2. Was a bit sceptical and took a chance with a new battery from Amazon. Battery was a bit difficult to remove and had to use a flat head screwdriver to really pop the thing out. Anyway phone works perfectly and it only cost me £15! Brilliant video and really pleased with myself!!

[@rolandweimer3218]

Thank you very good for that detailed exact working. This helps a lot. One note: The adhesive strip for the battery has straightened up in the last step before closing the display. It will now probably press or stick against the display.

[@sontruong4316]

Thank you so much for your detail instruction. I watched 3 videos on replacing I phone 6 battery and yours was the most helpful! Thanks again and keep up the good work!!!

*This battery reconditioning program exceeded my presumptions. It worked on any drill battery, several AA and AAA batteries, **batery.repair** and any camera battery. The steps are simple and the act itself is exciting to do. No matter what type of battery you`ve got, it is sure to function again!*

[@theticoboy]

Worked like a charm. We didn’t have to disconnect the touch screen. I messed up putting on the new adhesive. When I pushed the tab 90 degrees it flipped over and stuck to the adhesive a little. I also found it easier connecting the battery first and then placing it onto the adhesive. Great video. Thanks

[@uprisingmuffincompany3420]

Nice job, this worked out perfectly for me. I did not remove the screen and was able to change the battery. It took me about 45 minutes to do the job. Battery is working perfectly. Thanks. ScandiTech.

[@marioatoyan6183]

I just replaced the battery in my iphone 6. Nice easy directions. The hardest part was connecting the new battery, but patience and 5 minutes later it was all done. My phone is running like new! Thanks.

[@ginzero]

Good instructions. Removing the old battery was the hardest part the adhesive was really tough even after heating it up.

[@r-reyh8757]

Gino Delizo lol exactly..

[@edcheng1536]

Just completed my battery replacement using the ScandiTech kit and this video is very helpful. However, I found the instructions for putting on the new adhesive strips to be incorrect. After peeling off the blue film, the strips should be placed on the back of the new battery, then folded up around the top at the bottom of the battery. Then the red film can be removed and the battery placed into the phone. Doing it the way the video shows places the little adhesive strips that are meant to hold the tabs down on the top on the wrong side.

[@ScandiTech]

Hello Ed, You're absolutely right. We've been toying around with different ways to install the adhesive and for first time technicians it's definitely easier to put the battery right on to the battery. We've made a quick guide showing this process: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eaO3da2he5uqrMk Thank you for your comment and hope this helps! Regards, ScandiTech

[@steventaylor1990]

How does your battery perform these days? Considering ordering a kit off amazon

[@rlawrence2]

@@ScandiTech also, it makes sense to plug in the battery first before positioning it down on the adhesive. Then unplug it for safety when completing the install of the screen. No I haven't done it yet; but I am an observant anal engineer ready to order from you or someone. I like how you test the battery and also leave the battery install cable for last. Smart advice.

[@NicleT]

Just done it and it worked well. The only thing is that I had some other components that obviously doesn’t correspond to the iPhone 6 (yes, it’s the *iPhone 6 ONLY* kit that I have.) The over stock is like an interior transparent protection thing with two holes (one round and one oval) that doesn’t go anywhere in any iPhone I recall). Anyway, the 2600 mAh is PERFECT! Thank you.

[@radovanovicboki]

Hi Scandi Tech! First of all, i want to thank you so much!!! Your battery is very high quality, cheap and the tools u guys provide makes the job super easy! Even the caveman can do it. :) Now my iPhone can hold about 9 days in standby mode and when i play games or watch HD movies, it can hold up to 17 hours... ;) My old battery was 3 years old and had about 750 charging cycles and the phone was shutting down when it reaches about 25 - 30%, which was driving me nuts! At best it can hold about 5 - 7 hours on high use and about 3 days on the standby. Yeah i know not bad for the 3 year old battery, but i know how to charge my batteries, that's why they last a long time... :) Anyways i order your "Battery kit" with all the tools included and it took me about 25 - 30 minutes to replace the battery. The glue on the battery was super easy to remove, because what i did is pull the tape a little bit and then use my hair dryer to heat up the glue a little more and little by little, both tapes came off very easy and the battery just popped out, No force necessary. I did remove the screen, becuse it makes the job much easier and u don't have to worry damaging any connections that goes to the screen. Me as the computer administrator, that fixes all kinds of computer and the cell phones. Highly recommend this seller and his products. Good job and keep up the good work! ;) Cheers

[@alistbr]

I am useless at this type of thing but instructions talk you through step by step and no issues. Also worth adding that I removed the top section which was described as tricky, but it was all quite straight forward.

Just did my battery change on my iPhone. This video is great! The whole process went through without hassle and I was able to successfully change the battery out. Bought the battery and battery replacement kit from Skandi Tech on Amazon.com. Now let's wait and see what the battery life on the new battery is like. So far, so good. I recommend this seller!

[@rockgird]

how the battery life is for your phone ?

[@freireeduardo]

Yes. The battery still works fine! Offcourse the battery life decreased a little. It's been months of using it. But it still lasts fine. I would say it is a very good option if you don't want to buy a new phone. I'm still using my iPhone 6 and have no plans to change it for a new one for now.

[@f.ernandogabriel]

e aí, cara! vi que você também é brasileiro.. então, comprei minha bateria scanditech e tô esperando chegar. me diz, a tua bateria, após esse tempo todo, dura bastante ainda?

[@freireeduardo]

Fernando Gabriel a bateria Ainda dura direitinho sim. Não mais a mesma coisa que logo depois que troquei, mas isso eh normal. Alguns hábitos que pode. Ajudar a fazer ela durar mais tempo: não carregar até 100%, não deixar abaixo de 40% e não deixar carregando a noite toda enquanto vc dorme. Vc comprou o kit de ferramentas pra fazer a troca também né?

[@f.ernandogabriel]

sim, sim! você diria que essa bateria Scanditech tem a vida similar a original que veio no iPhone assim que comprou? eu comprei a minha no mercadolivre devido a loja no amazon não estar mais disponível.. paguei R$140 na minha no mercadolivre, só tinha uma unidade para cada iphone, e a vendedora não tinha muitas reclamações, então acho que a minha é original scanditech..

[@johnhayes1641]

Everything went exactly according to the video. My only suggestion is that it was hard to tell which side of the new adhesive strips faced down. We reversed it accidentally so the ends of the strips did not stick to the phone, although this did not present a problem. I wonder if it would be easier to apply the adhesive strips to the battery first. (Apologies. I see this same comment was made below). Thanks for a great product and excellent support!

[@ScandiTech]

Hello John, Thanks for the feedback. Yes, indeed. The part showing the application of the adhesive is not very clear. We made a new video for this process alone. Please see here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eaO3da2he5uqrMk This should be much clearer :-). Regards, ScandiTech

[@svendholme3627]

One of the best and most detailed steps for replacing a battery in an iPhone 6 I have seen. The warning to replace the screws in EXACTLY the same place they were removed from is very important. The screws vary in length but the differences are so slight you might not notice it, put a long screw in where a short screw is required and a good circuit board can be turned into non-repairable junk. Attention to detail is very important.

[@itsmemai4528]

It's already 2021 but this video is still very helpful. Thanks to this in depth tutorial I was able to successfully fix my old phone.

[@gordonsmith4576]

Great video, guys. However, in my case the glue tabs broke off at the very start, and I think my leverage and use of hairdryer must have affected something, as my phone as that ghosting, and it doesn’t respond to the finger control. But why does Apple have to glue the battery in place, where Samsung doesn’t? Back to my old Samsung then!

[@22hutchingsc]

Great kit. Video was instructive, but has you incorrectly place the sticky strips on the phone, not the battery. It then says, "...it might not stick, that's ok." It doesn't stick because it is upside down! I found that out too late. Also, the screen gasket is completely ignored. Had to watch some other vids to find out what to do there, then go back, take it all apart again and put that on. Wish I had watched some other videos as well beforehand!

[@betosgarage]

Same here !!

[@anitaschvitz9749]

I like folding duct tape over on itself (so it's a sticky circle) stick it and flatten it to the table, then you can stick the screws to it in the right pattern and they stay where you put them real good. No fear of coughing, sneezing or bumping them off.

[@ScandiTech]

A perfect suggestion!

[@TexasScout]

I just watched the replacement vid on ifixit, all she did to remove the adhesive was to pull straight back from the tabs, then work them around the side of the battery slowly pulling all the time. Just like removing a "Command Strip".

[@chewpaeng12]

[@tomneubauer924]

Did not remove screen, had wife hold screen at 90 degree angle to phone. Heated back with hair dryer, both tabs broke off on adhesive; maybe did not heat up enough . Had to really heat back of phone up and pry battery up bending old battery. Can't understand why such strong adhesive. As stated in video, keep screws separated and away from work area because hair dryer will blow them and you will spend more time looking for them . I had no problem. Excellent video.

[@pehyne]

Just repaired my phone! It was a little touch and go there when the adhesive strips both broke so i had to pry the battery out with the tweezers and then i almost lost a screw when putting everything back together, but in the end everything worked out perfectly I'm so happy

[@pehyne]

I will also never do that again it was too much work

[@ScandiTech]

Hi there, The process can get really troublesome because of the adhesives. When the adhesives break, try to soften it first by applying heat before prying the battery out. It can be much easier if the adhesive is softened. And yes, the screws are tiny and can be easily lost. It can also be blown by our own breath or any gust of wind. Which is why it is recommended to secure the screws as these are also sized differently. Overall, I'm glad to know that the replacement was a success. Cheers!

Hi so my friend replaced my battery and it worked for a good bit but then my phone dropped out of my back pocket and the whole screen came out and now my phone will power on for maybe a few seconds then power back down and so on. is there any way I can salvage my iphone ?

[@ScandiTech]

Hi there, Sorry to hear about the incident. I think the phone can still be repaired. It is possible that one or two of the flex cables may have gotten loose from the fall. I suggest that you or your friend carefully check the flex cables. The best way to do this is to just disconnect and reconnect the flex cable connectors (phone screen and battery). Please make sure to disconnect the battery connector first and reconnect it last. If you need assistance, you can email us at [e-mail] Regards, John Scandi Tech

[@Rick-wn5oh]

I would recommend finding a small magnet and sticking it to your screwdriver. Now your screwdrivers magnetic. Take the magnet off and it's no longer magnetic. I always keep a few magnets of various sizes sticking to my fridge. It's also handy when you lose a small screw on the floor.

[@ScandiTech]

Hi Richard, Very good suggestion! -John

[@jaredticer6255]

Gave it a like but i do wish there was more on the blow dry your phone part, lmao. I didn't have a heat gun and just wasn't really sure how long to heat it up, how close to hold it to the phone and so on. I managed to get the job done and phone worked perfect after, just would have spent ab 30mins less with a little more instruction regarding the adhesives. Thanks a lot for the help though :) Now i can hopefully get a little money for this phone to go toward the upgrade :D

[@developertech7787]

Successful repair! Great Battery! One question, when I put the battery in, i put it all the way to right against the logic board. I was still able able to connect the battery, but will this cause any issues later on?

[@ScandiTech]

Hello there, No. You should be OK. We recommend spacing the battery in the middle of the back assembly to let it have a bit of "breathing room" on both sides. However, even if the battery is directly adjacent to either side of the phone, it will not cause any harm. Regards, ScandiTech

[@multitaskperu810]

Excellent video, i just changed my iphone´s battery myself and its working perfectly, hope my 3 year-old phone will last another 2 years hehe.

You don't have to heat up the battery to remove strips. Just pull them straight out at about a 40 degree angle, slow and careful and they come right now. No need to "pull around corner", just pull straight.

[@rlawrence2]

That is what I was thinking; they look like the ones you install on the wall to hang photos and then remove by pulling up. Probably made by 3m also.

I just bought your replacement battery and will be tackling this very soon. Just curious why in your video demo the replacement battery is an apple battery and not one of yours. You had one in the kit at the beginning, why not use it for the replacement video?

[@ScandiTech]

Hello Jim, Thank you for your comment. We sometimes use props or old batteries in our videos. You see, our batteries are not stored in the same office we make our videos, hence we do not have direct access to our own inventory. It's a bit silly, I know. In some cases we've also make our videos prior to officially launching our battery kits. This means we haven't had our own batteries ready when putting the video online. Regards, ScandiTech

[@shalanosara]

I thought this video was incredibly helpful and allowed me to successfully change my battery here in a country where none are available even if I wanted to pay someone to do it. However, I would like to add a small comment. When I got to the point of sticking down the tape I erred with the correct side up. This is almost a non-issue but the ":grab tabs" at the end of the tape weren't correct and there was a small amount of "sticky" facing up, not down which would allow for the tabs to lay down and stick to the battery. It worked any way but I thought it was worth mentioning.

[@ScandiTech]

Hi Karl, Awesome! We love feedback as it helps us improve. We'll take your feedback into serious consideration. Cheers!

[@jstanich]

The battery works great. The tools are really nice and worked very well. Great product! However, the only issue I had was the new battery connector was not bent exactly as it needs to be to fit in properly and I had to figure out how to bend it so it would fit. Once I figured it out it was not a problem but there was nothing in the instruction about this. Anyone who does want to change their iPhone battery them self should note that getting the old battery out is not easy since it is glued in and unless you have decent mechanical skills you might ruin your phone. If you are under the impression that this is as easy as popping out the old battery and popping in a new one you may want to take you phone to the Apple store and pay for the battery replacement.

[@ScandiTech]

Hello Jon, I'm happy to hear that you managed to replace your battery. I see. In most cases, the battery does arrive with its connector in the right angle. However, during shipping and warehouse handling the battery tend to move about in the package and because of this, the connector might now always have that perfect 90 degree angle. Either way, I'm glad you figured it out on your own. You are absolutely correct. The battery replacement is not a risk free process. We try to warn about this wherever it's appropriate. We also recommend all potential customers to read and watch our guide before considering taking on a project like this. 95% of our customers manage to replace their batteries without any issues, but as you said, this is not for everyone. Regards, ScandiTech

I just have a question, do we really need to put the sticky strips or not? Can the battery be in place and still work? Thank you in advance.

[@ScandiTech]

Hi Joel, Yes definitely. Technically the battery can still work without the strips. The strips are there to hold down the battery. If the battery keeps moving inside the phone, the battery connector might get damaged.

ScandiTech ok thank you so much for your help👏

[@kathryndonohue8232]

One of the connectors is broken (not attached to the inside cover anymore). Can that be fixed? Thanks.

After replace the battery can I still using the same firmware/phone without any data remove as before? Or do I need to reformat/clean install ?

[@ScandiTech]

Hello Nero, A battery replacement will not affect your software in any way, if done correctly. That means the phone will have all your apps, images and messages saved when you boot up the phone are the replacement. The whole process is pretty much like rebooting your phone. Regards, ScandiTech

Hi! I replaced my battery and it turned out well. however, my power button is not working now? why is that :(

[@zolalloyd46]

Superb and highly informative video. No background noise, distracting graphics or unnecessary adlibbing. Just straight to the point from A to Z, and it worked perfectly for me. If there was one thing I would add is to use plastic tweezers or pry tools when trying to remove the old battery. Usually on the battery there's a warning about the risk of explosion if the battery is accidentally pierced, especially by a metallic tool. I also wore safety goggles for removing the battery just as an extra precaution. You don't have to wear goggles if you don't want to. But there is always a risk when poking around trying to remove something as potentially dangerous as this. Thanks so much

The heating part is really something that could be avoided, I guess? I've just completed the replacement of iPhone 8 battery and I just pulled the tabs and then used a credit card to lift it up. Worked fine. I assume that iPhone 6 battery replacement process was not much more complex, but that's just a guess.

[@ScandiTech]

There are instances where the battery adhesives are just stuck in there. Loosening it really helps.

[@NomadicDmitry]

@@ScandiTech Got it. I still like heating is not always a good suggestion here. It might help or it might damage stuff

[@shannonaust7355]

Thank you so much for your video! there was a scaring second there when the adhesive decided to bunch together in places but i was done with this (i was getting very frustated) so i put the strips in anyways and it seemed to work fine

[@trevorjameson3213]

I installed the new battery without those ultra sticky tape strips. No need for those anyway, the battery fits snug on it's own. Plus, the old phones years ago didn't have the batteries taped in, there is no need.

Thank you, I just replaced my old iPhone 6 battery. Very helpful

[@nickb3746]

Inside of my iPhone 6 Plus (it was one of the first) was a little different re screws on plates but your video was an immense help - thanks

[@peterpaul9663]
