If they want "eco progress" they should make their devices repairable.

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. *In that priority*

Well Reduce is really more "Why do you need this (device/pair of shoes/car/shirt/whatever) in the first place?"

But the Reuse part is definitely served, at least in part, through repair.

The equivalent reduction would be device consolidation, with the folding iPhone having the greatest capacity since it could replace an iPad and with cheap peripherals be at least as good a computer as a MacBook Neo. Of course, being Apple, it's reportedly only able to run iPhone apps heh.
