> Why would repairability and cost of parts have any relation? Because at some point it ampers the repairability. If something is technically repairable but it cost more than buy a new one, can you really say it's repairable ? > Also, checking eBay, it looks like an oem display (not from apple) for the iPhone 15 is only $150-170. From apple directly it’s $235. By comparison, I can’t find any way to actually buy an OEM display for Samsung phones. They just offer repair services. I don't believe that apple is going to let you 'calibrate' a third party manufacturer display, so you lose feature that technically work. Meanwhile on Samsung, or whatever other Android manufacturer, you put the new display and everything works as before. So you can't use the price of iphone third party manufacturer to compare it, or else you got to add the price of the feature you loose, like true tone, faceid, and so on.
