-[* black] After heating and prying... whoops! It looks like we didn't need to do that after all. The Touch ***finally*** has sweet adhesive pull tabs for easy removal.
-[* black] Well, kinda—those tabs aren't optimally placed, but hey, we don't look a gift tab in the mouth. One of the pull tabs is hidden beneath the logic board assembly, and the other is squeezed in between the battery and the speaker.
+[* black] We've been down this road before, and we're pretty confident in our [guide|11809|technique for getting the battery out|new_window=true]. Unless of course, something has changed...
+[* icon_note] And something has! Looks like the new Touch has peel-out adhesive tabs securing the battery, an update to battery-securing tech we saw in the iPhone 5s. (Although we're scratching our heads about how to peel out a tab that's under the logic board).
[* black] This Touch totes a 3.83 V, 3.99 Wh battery with a rating of 1043 mAh, as opposed to the 3.7 V, 3.8 Wh, 1030 mAh rated battery [guide|10803|found in the 5th Generation Touch|stepid=38843|new_window=true].
[* icon_note] Even with the Touch's advertised performance increases over the previous generation, Apple claims that the battery in this new iPod should supply up to 40 hours of ~~dubstep~~ music, or up to 8 hours of video playback.
