    Seems like Apple is going for bricking the devices if they are repaired. I was right about Apple wanting to try killing off 3rd party repairs and have everyone purchase new devices everytime something goes wrong. The worst part is the e-waste Apple is causing. Yet they say they are going green. That’s just tragic

      It’s not promoting ewaste because they want you to give the old devices back to them when you buy a new one. They aren’t making repairs impossible, they are making reasonably priced repairs at third party repair shops impossible. They want you to go to them and spend a fortune for repairs.
      It’s greedy, not environmentally harmful. They recycle the old devices and reuse the materials.

    This definitely has potential for a lawsuit. Serialized parts being used to prevent 3rd party repairs is directly against the Magnuson-Moss Act in the USA and several EU laws. A company cannot legally force a consumer to use their own warranty services.
    I think if more people realized that Serialized Parts exist right now then there definitely will be a good court case against Apple. Sadly most will settle out of court.

      Screws are always welcome in a device. Lots of screws is always the better solution.
      Clips break, especially has the plastic ages with thermal cycles , glue is shit obviously. And if you want any form of rigidity, you need multiple layers of material that are fastened together, Ideally using screws. Device that cares about the submillimeter alignment of all of its relative sensors, displays, etc. sort of needs to use a lot of screws or a lot of unremovable glue.

    Isnt it illigal to make a device anti 3rd-party repair? Like i heard somewhere apple got sued and was forced to make parts available and be able to be repaired by 3rd party vendors cuz what apple was doing was seen as extremly preditory and anti consumer by forcing people to go through them to repair their devices and have the repair price be extremely high and sometimes more then the cost of the device brand new and apple was even forced to stop coding their devices to purposfully slow down and become obsolete and basically forcing people to pay tons of money for newer up-to-date devices which is also illigal and preditory.

    @Toberumono 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    For what it’s worth, Serializing the FaceID and any other biometrics modules does actually make sense.
    The face data is stored within the chip and is never actually readable by the device, so if the chip weren’t serialized, you could get into somebody else’s iPhone by swapping out the FaceID module.
    Naturally, that also means you have to serialize the drive (because otherwise you could swap out the drive), so, that too makes sense.
    The non-authentication/storage modules being serialized is still BS, tho.

    • @SargonDragon
      @SargonDragon 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It should let you wipe the data and start over in that case. So it's not a real excuse, but Apple uses it as justification when the real purpose is blocking the customer's right to repair.
      I mean, you run into this exact same scenario with PCs, and when you've changed a part that affects security, it gives you the option to wipe data and start over. Apple's excuse doesn't fly.

    • @Toberumono
      @Toberumono 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@SargonDragon Fair enough, but I would argue that going with, “this is a bit sketch, want to wipe your data to continue?” is pretty antithetical to Apple’s overall design tendencies.
      I’m not saying that it’s the best solution, but it is remarkably hard to fuck up an Apple device and lose your data. If that means that they wind up serializing the storage and security modules, I’m not going to complain. Then again, I’m the one that gets called when a tech problem happens in my family, so I value some of these things significantly more than average (yes, I realize that serialization won’t protect my relatives because they would never pop their phone apart - it’s the overall pattern that I like). It’s also why I still called the rest of the serialization BS - serializing things like the camera is exclusively anti-repair.

    In Europe. A Vision pro costs € 4000,-
    I can instead buy a complete top notch gaming rig for:
    Case: €150
    Power Supply Unit (PSU): €150
    Motherboard (Mobo): €100
    Central Processing Unit (CPU): €350
    Cooler: €50
    Random Access Memory (RAM): €100
    1TB Solid State Drive (SSD): €150
    1st 4K Monitor: €450
    2nd 4K Monitor: €450
    RTX 4090 Graphics Card: €1850
    Now let’s add up the costs:
    Total = €150 + €150 + €100 + €350 + €50 + €100 + €150 + €450 + €450 + €1850 = €3950
    So, a VR headset, that's terrible for gaming, unwieldy for productivity, no repair support, 2-hour battery life, uncomfortable to wear, etc.
    Or
    A 2x4k monitor RTX 4090 Microsoft rig that's cheap to repair if damaged.
