The newer phones are easier to lift the screen out of, and replace the battery? Have you taken apart a 4 and a 6? A 6 is MUCH easier.

Replacing the battery in an iPhone 4 requires taking off the back cover, not the screen. And it was really a pleasant process when I did it two weeks ago. I had expected much worse, but I only had to get through three screws (granted, they were a bit small, but still).
