Introdução
Use this guide shows to remove and replace the battery in the iPhone SE 2022.
This guide was performed on the A2783 (international) model.
If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.
For your safety, discharge your battery below 25% before disassembling your device. This reduces the risk of fire if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair.
Note: This guide instructs you to fully detach the display assembly; this is intended to prevent accidental damage to the display cables. If you feel comfortable removing the battery without putting undue strain on the display cables, you can skip the steps for detaching the display. Additionally, while it’s possible to remove the adhesive strips securing the battery as soon as you open the phone, this guide recommends first removing the Taptic Engine. Doing so reduces the risk of breaking the lower adhesive strips accidentally, either by snagging them on the Taptic Engine, or by pulling the strips at too sharp of an angle.
If you do not replace the adhesive seals when reassembling, your device will function normally, but will most likely lose its water protection.
You’ll need replacement adhesive to reattach components when reassembling the device.

The iPhone's battery is secured by four pieces of stretch-release adhesive—two at the top, and two at the bottom.

Each piece of adhesive has a black pull-tab at the end, which is lightly adhered to the front surface or sometime only to the short edge of the battery.

-
Ferramenta utilizada neste passo:Tweezers$4.99
-
Peel back the first battery adhesive tab from the bottom right edge of the battery.
-
-
-
Grab the first pull tab with your fingers or blunt nosed tweezers and slowly pull it away from the battery, toward the bottom of the iPhone.
-
Pull hard enough to maintain tension on the strip, but don't force it. Give it plenty of time to stretch and un-stick from under the battery.
-
Don't press down on the battery. Hold the iPhone firmly by its sides.
-
Keep the strip flat and unwrinkled. Try to pull evenly on the whole strip, rather than pulling mainly in the middle or on one side.
-
Pull at a low angle so the strip doesn't snag on the edge of the battery.
-
The strip is less likely to tear if you use a combination of pulling and then reeling the strip around your tweezers. Slowly repeat this procedure until the strip is removed.
-
If the adhesive strip breaks off, try to retrieve it using your fingers or blunt tweezers, and continue pulling—but do not pry under the battery.
-
-
-
Grab the three other pull-tabs with your fingers or blunt nosed tweezers and pull them away from the battery, toward the bottom of the iPhone.
-
Follow the same procedure as with the previous strip: don't press down on the battery, keep the strip flat and unwrinkled, and pull at a low angle.
-
If the adhesive strip breaks off, try to retrieve it using your fingers or blunt tweezers, and continue pulling—but do not pry under the battery.
-
-
-
If any of the adhesive strips broke off and the battery remains stuck to the rear case, remove it by adding a few drops of isopropyl alcohol (90% or greater) underneath the battery near the stuck strip(s).
-
Wait about one minute for the alcohol solution to weaken the adhesive.
-
Use an opening pick or the flat end of a spudger to gently lift the battery.
-
-
Ferramenta utilizada neste passo:Plastic Cards$2.99
-
If you don't have any high concentration (over 90%) isopropyl alcohol at hand you can prepare an iOpener and apply it to the rear glass for at least three minutes to loosen the stretch-release adhesive underneath the battery.
-
Insert a plastic card underneath the bottom edge of the battery.
-
Slide the plastic card along the edge of the battery to separate it from the rear case and to cut the adhesive.
-
Use your plastic card to carefully pry up the battery.
-
-
-
Remove the battery.
-
If there's any alcohol solution remaining in the phone, carefully wipe it off with a coffee filter or lint-free cloth or allow it to air dry before installing your new battery.
-
If possible, turn on your device and test your repair before installing new adhesive and resealing.
Compare your new replacement part to the original part—you may need to transfer remaining components or remove adhesive backings from the new part before installing.
To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order. During reassembly apply new adhesive where necessary after cleaning the relevant areas with isopropyl alcohol (>90%).
For optimal performance, calibrate your newly installed battery after completing this guide.
Take your e-waste to an R2 or e-Stewards certified recycler.

Caution: you'll get the Unknown Part message in Settings > Battery, even if you use a genuine part.
iFixIt has this documented at Apple can upgrade individual iPhone SE parts, can you?
Quoting the relevant section:
Installing a 3rd Gen iPhone SE 2022 battery in a 3rd Gen iPhone SE 2022: Possible, but…
This is the current standard, and a good sign for future battery replacements, but unfortunately you’ll still get the “unknown part” warning. The only feature you’ll lose is Battery Health. Yes even if you’re using a perfectly genuine battery, Apple considers the repair “nongenuine” until they personally verify it.
Caveat: Apple will now let you pay for the privilege of verification, if you buy their part.
Just did a battery replacement for somebody last night phone said 0% when I plugged it in. Used an iFixit battery. He left this morning and shortly after unplugging the phone it died plugged it back in works unplug it it dies. Battery is not charging, is this a defective battery or is this Apple anti-repair since they sell the same battery for 5 dollars less? (after you find the super secret code and return the old one, if not it's 75 $ just to place the order).
