Galaxy S23 Ultra’s Battery Can Be Removed In Mere Seconds And Without Any Professional Tools or Supervision, According To Video

Samsung using the same design for the Galaxy S23 Ultra might have irked a few, but the refinements made to the flagship while charging the same price as the Galaxy S22 Ultra is truly remarkable. After surviving the bend test, one YouTuber shows that he waited eight long years for Samsung to implement this small change, making the battery removal a seamless process.

Removing the Galaxy S23 Ultra’s battery is a ‘single person’ job, as demonstrated by the video

Strange enough, iFixit performed a similar teardown on Samsung’s latest flagship and found that while the easy pull tabs on the Galaxy S23 Ultra were a welcome sight, several hands were required to successfully remove the battery. Zach from JerryRigEverything did not encounter such a problem in his video below, requiring only a single hand to complete the process.

He did face a small hiccup during the start of the teardown, where he almost tore off the ribbon cable, which would have meant that he would have to pay a small amount of money to get a display replacement part. Regardless, Zach claims that he waited eight long years for Samsung to introduce this change. Normally, phone manufacturers use a boatload of adhesive to hold the battery in place, so professionals or novices have to use lots of alcohol to soften that adhesive.

In short, removing the cell is no easy feat, and apart from the patience, you also need the right tools to replace it without rupturing. With the Galaxy S23 Ultra, you only need the tools to remove the front glass assembly, the wireless charging coil, some screws, and ribbon cables before you are granted access to the 5,000mAh battery. The YouTuber removed this part in a jiffy, stating that even a non-professional will be able to do this without any difficulty.

The battery gets removed in mere seconds

Since we did not hear any complaints from JerryRigEverything, it is likely that iFixit was sent a Galaxy S23 Ultra unit that may have been assembled a little differently. We also want to point out that the pull-out tabs are present in the less expensive Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S23 Plus. Hopefully, Samsung will make this a standard for all of its smartphones, including the foldable lineup that is expected to launch later this year, comprising of the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5.
