Based on iFixit testing, the iPhone 15 Pro Max gets a score of 4 out of 10. The lower the score, the harder the device is to repair. This means, with a score of 4 out of 10, the iPhone 15 Pro Max is difficult to repair, especially if repaired independently or via a third party.

In general, the internal design of the iPhone 15 Pro Max is similar to its predecessor, the iPhone 14 Pro Max . However, Apple has made changes to the internal components of its new cellphone to improve performance.

Then, iFixit removed the device's battery and found that the phone's battery was a bit difficult to remove because there was a lot of adhesive that was hard to reach and connected to other components. iFixit even uses alcohol to break down the adhesive that sticks to cellphone batteries. To remove the battery, the user or technician must also remove the taptic engine and bottom speaker of the cellphone first.

Apart from that, replacing the iPhone 15 Pro Max battery also needs to be done by opening the screen first. 

The reason is, there are other components that block access to the battery when reached by opening the cellphone section. Thus, if a user wants to replace the iPhone 15 Pro Max battery, the risk is that the cellphone screen could potentially be damaged.

iFixit gives an example that if a user tries to repair an iPhone screen with a screen made by Apple, or repair the rear camera LiDAR sensor or device battery, the iPhone 15 will give a warning that "this component may not be genuine".

In some scenarios, the components used do not even function at all. 

For example, to repair the biometric components of the iPhone 15, the rear camera or the front camera of the cellphone.
