Which is fine, if they would not pose as right-to-repair champions. They claim that selling a phone in 3 parts somehow helps R-T-R, that it's a great step forward. It is not. It doesn't change anything. The device is not any more repairable than any other device.
What they claim basically is that if you buy your TV as separate parts (remote controller, TV and TV stand instead of all of these in one box), that somehow makes the TV repairable. It does not, however.
