Pentalobe screwdriver I received in tool kit won't fit
I ordered a new screen and battery for my iPhone 6s and also ordered a tool kit. I went to open the iPhone today using the Pentalobe screwdriver supplied but it will not fit!
I tried a number of times but there was no way it was going to fit either of the screws!
I then tried it in my iPhone Xs and it fitted the screws! My iPhone 6s has never been opened so they are the original screws — I’m now confused as to why the screwdriver fits the newer iPhone but not the older one!
As far as I was aware both phones used the same size screws at the base of the phone.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Is this a good question?

Hi Peter,
You are correct—both phones require a P2 Pentalobe. If you think we may have sent you an incorrectly sized screwdriver, you can contact our Customer Support team: https://help.ifixit.com/collection/130-c...
