The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is the latest flagship device from the tech giant. While some may be disappointed with the similarity in design to its predecessor, the Galaxy S22 Ultra, Samsung has made some noteworthy refinements that are truly impressive. Whilst the camera setup and the design are the major overhauls this year, one of the major changes is the seamless process of removing the battery, a feature that many tech enthusiasts have been waiting for.

YouTuber Zach from JerryRigEverything put the Galaxy S23 Ultra to the test and was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to dismantle the device with just one hand. In the past, removing the battery from a smartphone was a difficult task, with manufacturers using a lot of adhesive to hold the battery in place. This meant that professionals and novices alike had to use various tools and alcohol to soften the adhesive and carefully remove the battery without rupturing it.

However, with the Galaxy S23 Ultra, Samsung has made this process much simpler. By only requiring the removal of the front glass assembly, wireless charging coil, screws, and ribbon cables, the 5,000mAh battery can be easily accessed and removed in just seconds. Even non-professionals can remove the battery with ease, Zach stated in his video.

While there was a small hiccup during the teardown process where Zach almost tore off the ribbon cable, he claimed that Samsung’s implementation of this change was worth the wait. He even stated that he had been waiting for eight long years for Samsung to make this small but significant improvement.

Nonetheless, the presence of pull-out tabs in the less expensive Galaxy S23 and S23 Plus models gives hope that Samsung will make this feature standard in all of their smartphones, including the highly anticipated Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 set to launch later this year.
