Apple products are not easy to repair. In fact, Apple is
said to even make them difficult to repair by hooking the components together
and using other forms of fastening to make it difficult or even impossible to
remove.
In addition, the company has always said that only
authorized service providers can open a Mac for repair or update its
components. The same is true when replacing a broken screen or MacBook battery.
On the other hand, Apple usually replaces the entire product
instead of a specific part, which contributes to creating the more than 53
million tons of electronic waste that are created each year, a small part of
which is recycled.
Either because you are concerned about the environment and
want to know how easy it will be to repair an Apple product before buying it,
or because you are concerned about how much it will cost, in this article, we
have gathered everything you need to know.
Can Apple products be repaired?
There are those who try to repair and update Apple products
at home, but by doing so, they risk damaging their equipment forever and that
will directly void the warranty (if it is still under warranty).
In case you want to repair or update the device at home, you
should get some specialized tools, such as a heating pad to undo the adhesives
that hold the screen.
You will also need to get hold of the correct pieces. Apple
ships genuine parts to authorized service providers and, since 2019, they can
also be accessed by independent repair providers who join its program .
But users cannot access those original parts, and that can
be a real problem. In the past, it has happened that iPhones failed to use
non-Apple parts, so you can't ignore it.
Although it is possible to update the components of a Mac or
replace the screen of an iPhone, it is not something we would recommend unless
you are very convinced that you have the necessary knowledge to do so.
Our endorsement is to make an appointment with an Apple
Store, find an Authorized Service Provider or a store that is part of the
Independent Repair Provider program to do the repair for you, even with the
stores closed .
