Apple’s iPhone is designed to be difficult
to repair, which is already a thing to see for all. In production processing,
Apple through the use of special screws, integrated packaging, deep battery and
other advanced technology, succeed to ensure only Apple store maintenance staff
can really serve iPhone user. Especially for the battery which was hidden in a
layer of micro-circuit board and small parts, without professional knowledge user
simply don’t know where to start. Greenpeace US division IT department analyst
Gary Cook said that Apple, Samsung and Microsoft products for the average user
is increasingly difficult to repair - this will not only shorten the life of mobile
device, but also increase the electronic waste.
Compared to iPhone 4, iPhone 5, Apple has
improved convenience of replacing battery, but on the iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus
owner still need to use specialized tools, meanwhile must have some expertise
in order to get rid of the stick glue to fix battery. Compared to other brands
of smart phones, the demolition of iPhone is still not simple. According to the
dismantling analysis, iPhone 7 in addition to the use of adhesive in the
assembly must be softened by heating to remove the glue. In addition to the
glue, but also including the shell and the internal components are use of
different specifications of screw, in the dismantling process at least four
screwdrivers are needed, so just open the iPhone 7 is a considerable challenge.
Large number of viscose for the iPhone 7
brings IP67 specifications (a fully dustproof protection level) waterproof
capacity. In order to maintain the internal air tightness, to avoid water
droplets into, including the volume keys, power button, SIM card slot,
speakers, microphone inside are also designed with rubber washers. To break the
iPhone 7 and not undermine the integrity of the internal components, although
there are some challenges, but not impossible. The focus is on the reduction of
waterproof performance, due to special adhesive combination will be broken
after the destruction of its coating integrity and viscosity, so the biggest
difficulty is that after maintenance repair assembly, it is almost impossible
to maintain the original waterproof ability.
Maintenance difficulty of iPhone 7 mainly
from the waterproof design, non-original maintenance is difficult to restore to
the best condition. Of course, if choosing the original maintenance, then the
waterproof capacity is certainly guaranteed, if to the third party maintenance,
most of them can’t maintain the original waterproof capacity. After all, the
use of third-party waterproof glue and coating technology basic can’t do the
original level.
Although Apple's practice in the
maintenance caused some trouble to users, but review the history of Apple's
product development, we have to admit, whether it is in the product selection
or assembly, Apple has done a pioneer, and they also Believe that consumers
will buy it for this. In short, better performance components and design
process improvements will undoubtedly increase costs, while these costs will
eventually be reflected in the price of the product. For Apple, the
profitability of high-priced products is often better, so whether new design is
environmentally friendly, or protect the consumer's "electronic equipment
maintenance rights" and other issues, it is naturally not Apple's first
focus.
When you find your iPhone is broken, placed
in front of you generally there are two options: trade-in, or take maintenance.
And the US market iPhone 6s, for example, if you do not buy Apple's AppleCare +
warranty plan, the battery replacement up to 79 USD, the screen repair up to
129 USD, the general maintenance costs 299 USD. And compared to 649 USD of
brand new iPhone 7, coupled with the intimate Apple’s additional 18-24 months
to make up the difference, the old machine for the new machine activities, I
believe many "thirsty" people will make Apple choose the heart.
Apple executives have been openly asked the
company's internal environmental team: "Please do all your efforts to
ensure that our production and sales will not be affected." At the same
time, Apple will also claim that the company spared no effort to enhance their
environmental aspects Sustainable development capacity: "Our products are
not good to repair, but it is also for the consideration of good quality, the more
compact the better look. If the user would like to repair, the franchise store
maintenance staff is on standby; if the equipment can’t recover to work any
longer, we will do recycle for it. We recently also developed Liam, a set of robot
equipment that automatic removal of the old iPhone, recycling becomes so easy.
I believe that for many people, the Apple
mobile phone screen is easy to a very high degree of damage, like the current
iPhone 7 screen in the demolition has been very difficult. As the industry
rumors iPhone 8 to use the OLED panel, which will join the wireless Charge, and
even face detection unlock function, set so many complex new technology in one,
I am afraid it will not be good to repair as before.
