Overall, iFixit gave the iPhone Air a provisional repairability score of 7 out of 10, because it’s easier to get to the battery and not too difficult to replace a screen. Apple has also made efforts to release spare parts and manuals for iPhone repair, and has scaled down software locks and restrictions on parts pairing, improving its iPhone repairability scores.
I guess that’s a step in the right direction
As to whether the weak points will be an issue for iPhone Air owners, iFixit says “time will tell.”
JRE put 215lb of pressure on it before it broke…He literally couldn’t bend it with his hands. Impressive stuff, really.
We’ve come a long way since the iPhone 6.
Ya that video was genuinely surprising.
Apple knows what people do to their phones after release. I would not be surprised if one engineering goal was „make sure it does not fucking bend by hand!!“
Oh they’re acutely aware after bendgate.
Spoiler: diet and exercise.
