It’s important that stolen iPhone parts remains worthless imo. I don’t want my iPhone stolen
The solution is there need to be parts available for reasonable prices in the first place. There are no reasonably priced parts for iPhone Pro 13 and onwards. My friend's cell phone repair chain has lost a lot of business because they can't fix many types of Google Pixel, Samsung, or Apple devices for reasonable prices.
but no, apple has different motives of course, and they feel like lying to their very naive users. Why wouldnt they? the reality distortion field is as strong as ever
