So, according to the professionals at iFixit, the new iPhone 14 is the most repairable smartphone since the iPhone 7. This makes sense, given that Apple has been attempting to make it simpler for owners to repair their devices, in addition to the fact that it aids Apple service specialists in fixing iPhones. It’s odd that the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max lines are more difficult to fix. Apple may have thought it best to test the new design’s endurance before implementing it universally.
You need the following two elements to complete effective repairs: knowledge and suitable equipment. iFixit also offers both.
1. USB-C power meter
My testing tools have started to include USB power testers on a regular basis. A decent tester can verify the power output of USB ports, the power drain of gadgets, the capacity of batteries, the maximum loads USB-C cables can support, and much more.
One of the simpler USB testers available is this one. There aren’t many buttons or controls, and the directions that come with it are fairly clear. This programme may save data to a PC logger in addition to the display, enabling you to run lengthier experiments.

2. SE LED- illuminated head-mounted magnifier
Enter this inexpensive magnifier, which has LED lights in addition to the magnification lenses. A soldering iron is quite useful in this situation. You may use a butane-powered iron because it allows me the freedom to fix things without access to electricity.
- The adjustable headband is quite cosy.
- Bright and able to move left and right as well as be slanted up or down, the dual LED lights are powered by two AAA batteries.
- Comes with three lenses, allowing for a total of four magnifications up to 8.3x: a fixed 1.9x stereo lens, a drop-down 1.9x stereo lens, and a 4.5x loupe.
- The lenses are of excellent quality and are not distorted.
- It is both lightweight and strong.
3. Dremel Versa Tip soldering iron
- Cordless butane soldering torch ideal for pyrography, shrinking heatsinks, heating, cutting plastic, and other craft and hobby tasks.
- To avoid unintentional ignition, the ignition trigger has a safety lock integrated into it.
- Temperature control can be adjusted between 1022°F and 2192°F for fine control.
- For easier use, a flame lock-on mechanism maintains a constant flame on the torch.
- 14-piece accessory set with many uses.
- A tank that is refillable and has a 75-minute burn time.
4. Ulefone Armor 9 with built-in thermal camera
The Ulefone Armor 9 is the Android phone is the preferable one. It is tough. It has bulk! It’s hard. And it has a FLIR Lepton thermal camera embedded right into it! In my opinion, thermal cameras used to be considered a neat toy for those with more money than common sense. But after using one for a while, I’ve come to realise how useful it is to have the “superpower” of infrared vision.
Why? Excessive heat indicates a problem with electrical repairs, and because of this camera, you can see the overloading immediately.
