Title
iPhone 16 Microphone Replacement
Introduction
Use this guide to replace the microphone in your iPhone 16.
If your iPhone's having a hard time picking up your voice, or has intermittent issues, the microphone might need to be replaced.
The microphone in this guide is the primary of three microphones, and can be replaced as a single unit. Another microphone is integrated with the charging port assembly, and a third is integrated with the power button assembly.
You'll need replacement back glass adhesive to complete this repair. You'll also need replacement microphone adhesive if your new microphone doesn't come with adhesive pre-installed.
