They have known that for decades already. Companies don't want you to repair anything because they earn a lot less money if you stop coming back to their overpriced repair services. It is not that they are unaware about the fact people want a phone that could easly get serviced anywhere. They just prioritize profits.

Guys, you've done it. You've actually listened to my feedback that I made years ago regarding the repairability rubric. The serialized parts being a part of the repairability score should have been a thing. I'm glad to see it finally implemented and see you guys swapping parts around from different iPhones to see which part is serialized and which one isn't. Thank you so much, iFixIt. This is one more step closer to teaching people that serialized parts are a travesty to Right to Repair.
Technically speaking apple is not doing "parts pairing" they are just not storing calibration information directly on each part but rather storing it server side. Apples defence for this will be theft protection, by only providing the profile to your phone if that parts is not assigned to another phone they can stop you using stolen parts. Using stolen parts is not what Right to Repair is about.

Apple's high quality devices suffer in repairability due to they silly parts pairing method. It serves no other purpose other than trying to control the repair market as if they aren't making billions of dollars already selling their phones. No other manufacturer todate has this kind of anti-repair measure in place, it's totally unnecessary and malicious by Apple. Booo!!
I'm probably the only person who thinks this, but I liked the blog-style teardowns better than the video. Seems to me it wouldn't be hard to do both at the same time.
It is worth noting pentolpe screws are no more proprietary than Philips. However they are much less likly to be damaged by using a screw driver of the wrong head size.
So is torx. Apple chose the obscure pentalobe screw intentionally because torx screwdrivers are too common, and it used to be difficult to obtain pentalobe bits before ifixit and other companies started offering kits.
@@andym.s.5231apple did it on purpose to try and keep you from repairing your own device, they could have used any other screw drive type but they chose one almost everyone wouldn’t have at hand and would need to order or buy, adding to the cost of DIY repair and deterring it
I would have given it a 2. While yes, the parts are physically swappable, I cannot agree that they are "replaceable" due to apple's intentional software pairing of components. This means that I can't just buy a part off the shelf and put it in my own iphone without interacting with apple directly. I feel you are being too kind towards the increasingly strict software locking.
@@FernandoAES No, that's not what the term "off the shelf" means. Maybe if the guy had said "off the back of a truck" you'd have cause to be suspicious.
@@lennyvalentin6485 The iPhone use custom parts for everything. So "off the shelf" means going to Apple for the parts anyway. What is really the matter of the pairing then?
Phones that are less repairable than older phones with removable batteries shouldn't be called repairable. Every modern phone especially those that use glue, should never get above a 1.
Especially when parts are locked down with software pairing. It serves no practical purpose other than trying to control the repair market as if they aren't making billions of dollars already selling their phones. No other manufacturer todate has this kind of anti-repair measure in place, it's totally unnecessary and malicious by Apple. Booo!!
To me a heavier phone feels more premium so lighter is not an advantage to me. Especially considering the added cost of titanium and its processing being less environmentally friendy than steel or aluminum.
It seems there isn’t a plastic spacer where the SIM card slot isn’t on the US model. I would love to see a comparison of the US and international version to see what they were able to do with the extra space
They did nothing of course. They just arranged some parts differently on the logic board to fill the space. But there isn't any extra hardware in the US model because that would be "unfair" and not something Apple would do. They will use this space effectively once they start selling every iPhone without that slot. But that probably takes a lot of years still
@@Raja995mh33 well for starters, the US model has exclusive hardware already, the mmWave antenna. Also, moving a few components around a few mm here and there can make a drastic difference in something like heat management and sustained performance
@@Raja995mh33hopefully many years, while I’m happy to use an esim in my home country a local physical sim from the airport when landing is still the most cost effective way to travel rather than travellers esims which are extremely overpriced.
The pairing actually makes sense to prevent iPhones from being stolen and sold for parts on the black market. And I wouldn’t want to get parts of unknown quality for key components like the battery, display, or camera.
Watching you remove that back glass made me so nervous. The bend on the pro max removing it just was not there in your 15 vanilla tear down. I have the 15 pro max so my heart started to race. Thought this might be the year I’d go caseless…nope! Think I need an otter box defender series on this one.
Surprised iFixIt went through the front to remove the battery. Everyone else I’ve seen do it removed the back at the same time and just pushed the battery out through the center hole.
The part about the scratchability sounds a bit fishy to me because anodized aluminium will scratch as easy and its used in alot of phones when you scratch with a nail or something like that. I also doubt that the 18g comes from the titanium, i think the inner aluminium part saved more weight because as far as i know the IP14 had both outer and inner part in steel.
The difference being that the anodized layer is both thicker and (iirc) harder than a PVD coating. Personally, I feel it’s a shame we didn’t get flamed titanium as a colour choice.
@@angryakita3870 in the EDC tool world Titanium is often anodized with electricity because it changes its color at certain voltage like yellow to blue, violet etc. Are you sure that Anodized Alu is harder, i guess it depends on which level, the highest ist hard anodized. Alot of Flashlights use that anodizing but of course it can be scratched as well. Personally i like the natural titanium the most, i mean if cou get a Ti frame than dont coat it with a color, i mean the color is one thing of Ti that looks nice, for me it makes no sense to use Ti and color it black. With aluminium its different because its not as nice as Ti, here i would prefer anodized Aluminium. I thought PVD is hard, maybe i am confused and thought about DLC, Diamond like coating.
@@赵子康-w5o no, im not sure but it would make sense because now they promote a bonding technic between Titanium and Aluminium as something new, so i guess the old Iphones dont use such bonding processes which would mean they use full steainless steel without aluminium core. ?
@@danbarb9728 I watched many disassembly videos, and the internal frame of previous iPhones seems to be fixed by screws instead of fusion technology, and using a steel frame inner frame does not seem to make sense for the iPhone, it will only increase weight and reduce heat dissipation，But you can also learn more about it and tell me the new information you get.
I don't know if anyone noticed, when shaking the iPhone 15 Pro Max while placing it near your ear, you can hear the sound of details inside, but if you turn on the camera while shaking, nothing will be heard
Correction. These are not bugs. You are ifixit you should know when these parts are replaced they have to be married to the phone they are going into via software registration.
Drop tests are not so easy, if you drop it on a corner it will shatter. The edges are rounded now and less protected. But the phone is lighter, so less impact energy too absorb. The removable backglass makes it easier to break, but cheaper to repair.
In theory, because while I like that replacing a broken back is much less of a chore on them, what you’re saving in labour costs will likely be made up in a more expensive midframe due to the titanium and aluminium construction.
Disagree with you on the notion that the advent of the USB-C connector on the iPhone 15 lineup isn’t “something special.” For one, USB-C on the iPhone 15 Pro and promax models with 10 Gb per second transfers speeds with the USB 3.2 cable, means that the iPhone for the first time will be excellent for professionals who use the iPhone Pro models for RAW filmography and RAW photography. Keep it objective.
My iph 15 pro max started to overheat like crazy, in approx 10 min normal use with no gaming it starts to be very hot and the entire things starts to move very slow (similar when you put your ph in lower power mode), never had this issue with 13 pro max
About 10 years ago, amost all phones, including smartphones had removable back cover as standard. Now Apple is praised for having a "removable" back cover as if they had made an outstanding innovation and set a new standard.

Still deserves an automatic 0/10 repairability score because of parts pairing and software locks.
When parts pairing is gone, make it a 7/10
Well it got a -3 off the score just for that reason. The phone itself is quite easy to disassemble otherwise, that part deserves some credit.
