Apple is expected to provide more than 200 parts and tools for the most common repairs.
Previously, Apple only provided access to original parts to nearly 5,000 authorized service providers and 2,800 independent repair service providers.
Notably, Apple offered an option for those wanting to make their own repairs after consumer advocates demanded the “right to repair” to extend the life of smartphones by several years.
On the other hand, new hardware fixes with more features become more complex.
