Guide overview

Before you begin

Use this guide to remove or replace the two screws securing the iPhone 12 mini display panel. These are the only screws on the exterior of the iPhone. They use a five-point design that is unique to Apple, requiring a specialty P2 pentalobe driver for removal.

Step 1

Remove the pentalobe screws

  • Before you begin, discharge your iPhone battery below 25%. A charged lithium-ion battery can catch fire and/or explode if accidentally punctured.
  • Power off your iPhone before beginning disassembly.
  • Remove the two 6.7 mm-long pentalobe screws at the bottom edge of the iPhone.
