| 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, [[What to do with a swollen battery|take appropriate precautions|new_window=true]]. | | ***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. |
