Restore USB-C charging, USB 3 data transfer and bottom microphone function on the iPhone 16 Pro in Desert Titanium with this genuine Apple Charging Port Flex Cable, part 821-04855-04, supplied in reclaimed condition. Professionally removed from a working donor device, fully cleaned and bench-tested by our QA team, the assembly delivers Apple's original USB 3 transfer speeds, charging behaviour and microphone response — the same hardware fitted at the factory.

Because it's a genuine Apple module rather than an aftermarket copy, the technician retains full USB 3 (10 Gbps) data transfer speeds for ProRes video and large file workflows. Aftermarket charging port flex assemblies are typically limited to USB 2 (480 Mbps) speeds and do not preserve Apple's authentication signalling — making genuine reclaimed the right choice for any iPhone 16 Pro repair where the customer expects factory-spec performance.

Common Faults Resolved

• Intermittent or non-responsive USB-C charging
• Slow or failed data transfer over USB-C
• Bent, damaged or worn USB-C connector pins
• Liquid or corrosion damage inside the charging port
• Faulty bottom microphone affecting voice calls and audio recording
• Failed prior repair using a poorly matched aftermarket flex

Key Features

• Genuine Apple component: reclaimed from a working donor iPhone 16 Pro, not an aftermarket copy
• Full USB 3 (10 Gbps) speeds retained: preserves ProRes video transfer and high-speed data workflow performance
• Integrated microphone: bottom microphone for calls, voice memos and audio recording included on the flex
• Desert Titanium USB-C socket: matched for the Desert Titanium iPhone 16 Pro for an OEM finish
• Plug-and-play fitment: board-to-board buckle connectors, no soldering required
• QA-tested: every flex is cleaned, bench-tested for charging, data and microphone response, and verified before dispatch
• Trade dispatch: in stock from the UK with fast trade dispatch

What's Included

Important Notes

• Colour-matched part: this is the Desert Titanium variant. Although the underlying flex assembly is identical across iPhone 16 Pro colour variants, the visible USB-C socket is colour-matched. Fitting a Desert Titanium socket to a Black Titanium, White Titanium or Natural Titanium device will produce a visible mismatch at the bottom edge of the chassis.
• Run Apple Repair Assistant after fitment: navigate to Settings → General → About → Parts & Service History → Restart & Finish Repair and follow the on-screen prompts. This pairs the new charging port to the device for full feature support.
• Parts & Service History entry: because this is a reclaimed module rather than a factory-paired one, the device may display a "Genuine Apple Part" or "Unknown Part" entry under Parts & Service History depending on pairing status. This is informational only and does not affect charging or data function.
• Bench-test before final fitment: verify USB-C charging, data transfer at USB 3 speed and bottom microphone function before sealing the device.
• No soldering required — the flex connects via standard board-to-board buckle connectors.
• Installation should be carried out by a qualified technician using suitable heat, separation and ESD-safe tools to avoid damage to the chassis, flex cables or logic board.
