[ifixit] We Are Retroactively Dropping the iPhone’s Repairability Score::We need to have a serious chat about iPhone repairability. We judged the phones of yesteryear by how easy they were to take apart—screws, glues, how hard it was…
Why do people care about Apple’s repairability? If you don’t like that your phone is unrepairable - don’t buy it?
Because there are a lot of people out there who don’t know about or understand all this, and I don’t think a regular consumer should be expected to know about weird software quirks to be protected from a company’s rapaciously anti-consumer policies.
But we have a problem in capitalistic markets now. We have dozens different flavors of same thing.
Because I love iPhones and iOs, I just wish the ones making them weren’t such asses with their customers.
