Although most users never disassemble their phone, many are curious to see what the inside of the handset looks like. Many people take the phone apart in front of the public, for example on YouTube, to show the world what the inside looks like and to help those who want to get their phone at home. The latest subject is the Xiaomi 11T Pro. Here:
After removing the rear glass panel, no fewer than 17 screws need to be unscrewed before you can get to the motherboard and cameras. The plastic cover above the cameras houses the NFC module, the antenna wires and a large graphite film strip above the battery. The 11T Pro has a dual-battery design, with each module having its own connection cable.
The motherboard features a fairly elaborate cooling system, with graphene foil, thermal paste and copper tape to help keep the heat generated by the Snapdragon 888 under control. After removing a bunch of cables, the battery can be removed from the device using the small tabs designed for this purpose.
More graphite foil and a copper vapour chamber have been added to the bottom of the battery compartment, which is understandable given the 120W fast charging capabilities of the device, just in case.
Well, the Xiaomi 11T Pro is not a phone where anyone can replace a battery, and what is true for most phones today is that if you don't have experience, it's better to leave any repair to a professional service.
