Apple, one of the biggest names in the smartphone world, has reached a large user base with the technology ecosystem it has created. The company, which is also the target of criticism with the decisions it has taken from time to time, has again come to the agenda with an interesting decision.
“Self Service Repair” has arrived for iPhone 13 series, iPhone 12 and new iPhone SE
Apple has announced its new service where it started selling parts and different tools for iPhone devices. With these sales, it launched the “Self Service Repair” program, which allows users to repair devices themselves. In addition to the products sold under the program, there will be repair manuals that make it easy for people to make their own repairs.
Apple describes its Self Service Repair program as an “alternative way to repair.” On the other hand, iPhone 13 series, iPhone 12 and iPhone SE 2022 will be devices under service. The tech giant is taking the program for a test drive in the US for the first time. On the other hand, Apple used the following statements on the subject.
We believe we have a responsibility to customers and the environment to offer affordable access to safe, reliable and secure repairs to help customers get the most out of their devices.
Apple will sell certain parts through Self Service Repair. The tech giant is turning to common problems like broken screens and faulty batteries or cameras in its sales. It also wants to offer M1-based Mac parts later this year as part of the program. The company is considering expanding its program to Europe as soon as possible.
