Do replacement cameras and screens cause fires too?
- bzzzt 6y agoWorse, they cause unsatisfied customers who don't want their next phone to be an Apple.
- C19is20 6y agoI bought some OEM stuff for my car. I bet Ford are fuming that I've devalued their product. If someone replaced a camera and weren't happy with it, at least they could try another.
- bzzzt 6y agoI bet they are when you're passing it on as a 'genuine' Ford part when you're selling the car.
- minikites 6y agoThat's a problem for Apple. Why is it a problem for consumers?
- nomel 6y agoI imagine the used market would be flooded with "iPhones" filled with non-genuine parts. Non genuine parts often don't interact well with things like firmware updates.
- minikites 6y agoSo by this logic all automobiles should only be serviced by the manufacturer. Somehow I think we'd manage to figure something out for a product that is orders of magnitude less dangerous than an automobile.
- bzzzt 6y agoThat's already the case for the more complicated parts. Also, at least here in the EU, if you want factory warranty you have to follow the dealer schedule and do the necessary replacements.
