> I wouldn't take my device to a third party anyways
Me neither, which is why I want the right to repair to be a thing, so I can get parts just like the third-party I wouldn't use and do the repair myself instead.
> Secondly after owning an iPhone for over a decade not once have I needed a repair.
Beyond actual repair there are consumable parts such as batteries which need replacement after a year or so.
> I feel like the repair issue is manufactured outrage for a problem that doesn't actually exist
It may not exist for you, but does it hurt you or make your situation worse in any way if the repair issue were solved? If not, then why is it a bad thing if some other people (for whom repair is an actual problem) benefit from it?
- bastardoperator 5y agoI'll never do a repair on my phone, my time is too valuable to be futzing around with things I don't truly understand. You most certainly do not need a new battery after a year, my kids are playing with an iphone 4 as a toy. I'm also not the one upset that apple is providing parts, great. It just seems like nothing is ever good enough or everything is done in bad faith and I just don't see the world through that kind of myopic or dystopian lens.
