When it comes to purchasing new iPhone parts from Apple turns out to be quite expensive as compared to purchasing original refurbished parts, most independent repair shops use.

Apple is selling the original iPhone parts to the repair shops and it is perfectly alright as the parts are original and new. However many people from the repair sector say that Apple is planning to sell these parts at a higher profit. The price of these parts would be higher than the cost of refurbished original/ aftermarket parts.

Hampers the profits of a small repair shop

When Apple sells the parts at a higher rate, it directly affects the profits earned by small repair shops and this will discourage them from utilizing the repair provider program started by Apple.

Battery replacement is a common repair

Battery replacement is the common repair handled by both independent repair shops and Apple. The reason being the capacity of charging is lost over some time period of time in lithium-ion batteries. So, you will be able to use your phone. If you replace the battery of your phone it will add to the life of your phone.

Effective program

Apple says that the program would help them ease off the heavy demand for said the program, which should help ease the heavy demand for repairing charging ports or cracked screens.

This will help Apple to reach out to more customers and expand its network.

When it comes to independent iPhone parts suppliers they report that the terms laid by Apple to be their authorized service providers are fulfilled when they purchase in higher volumes. This actually had an adverse impact on their business.

Apple permits repair stores to set price

With all the complaints that Apple got from independent stores selling wholesale cell phone parts, Apple will continue to permit them to fix their own prices for aftermarket iPhone parts and repairs.

All they need to do is return the Apple parts they have collected to the company itself for recycling /refurbishment.

The shops can join this program as it is free and all they need is to have a technician who is Apple-certified and has attended a training course (free) of 40-hour duration and the test that the company has provided

What all is included in the new program from Apple

It will be easy for people in rural areas and areas where you will find less number of Apple stores to get iPhones repaired easily.

Apple will not sell iPhone parts to the normal public. It will also not sell the parts to those who carry out repairing phones from their own space, but under this new program, it will sell its products to those who meet certain requirements.

Apple will be selling only certain parts that comprise iPhone cameras, iPhone batteries, displays, and speakers. It means Apple will not permit independent repair shops to perform all sorts of repairs.

Earlier the repair shops which were not authorized actually couldn’t obtain official parts which resulted in some complaints sometimes as the parts stopped performing etc. this issue will now be sorted out easily.

How will Apple be helping independent iPhone repair shops?

Apple will permit smaller repair shops to purchase original parts and tools for iPhone so that they can carry out the repairs similar to how the Apple store would do.

This will help the iPhone owners as Apple used to perform lockdown repair which used to be quite expensive.

This program from Apple is still to be launched in different parts of the world and the sooner it happens, it would help customers as well as the small repair shop owners.
