  • As we expected, the battery inside the Touch is secured with adhesive.

  • Fortunately, the notches around the edge of the battery made tactical prying points for our plastic opening tool, freeing the battery.

  • The iPhone 5's battery utilized 3.8 V chemistry to squeeze every last second of battery life out of its Li-ion power source. Though without LTE sapping all its charge, the iPod Touch didn't require such measures.

  • This Plain Jane battery provides 3.8 Wh at 3.7 V for a rating of 1030 mAh, a little more than the previous model's 930 mAh.
