If this is an issue that affects every iPhone say past 2 years (although I think I've heard reports of the issue affecting much newer iPhones), then wouldn't a much better solution (for the future) be to make iPhones with user-replaceable batteries? Why do people have to come in to the Apple Store to replace their batteries? Is Apple just counting on the fact that not too many will take them up on it?
- reaperducer 9y ago> Why do people have to come in to the Apple Store to replace their batteries? You don't. Thousands of people replace their own iPhone batteries every week. Even I've done it, and I'm not especially dexterous. Just go to Amazon or Google and search for a $20 replacement kit. Or, if you're not a DIY person, where I live there are places on every other streetcorner that will replace your battery for you.
- MBCook 9y ago> Why do people have to come in to the Apple Store to replace their batteries? That’s how Apple tends to handle almost all warranty issues. Either that or you can mail it in. iPhones are not exactly designed to be easily opened and messed with by normal people. It’s part of how they get them so thin (insert various other theories that may or may not apply here).
