For the first time since iPhone 4S: Apple has made it easier to repair iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus

The media found out that Apple has made an important change to the iPhone 14 smartphones, which will greatly facilitate

their repair.

What does it mean

According to TechCrunch and CNET, iPhone 14 andiPhone 14 Plus is equipped with a removable glass back panel, which has not been seen in Apple gadgets since the iPhone 4S. This means that to replace a cracked back panel, technicians will not have to disassemble the phone from the display side.

Previously, to replace glass on iPhone 12and iPhone 13, repairmen had to completely disassemble all the parts on the screen side and install a new case, only without the “filling”, camera and display. And in the event of a breakdown of the iPhone 11 and older models, specialists completely changed the device. Thus, the old-new method, which is used in the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus, will be less expensive for Apple and more environmentally friendly.

However, the innovation does not seem to apply to the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max.
