Despite lobbying against California’s right-to-repair law in the past, Apple has slowly been warming up to the idea. It established its own self-repair programs for various devices, including the iPhone 14 and M2-equipped MacBooks. While this program lets users obtain the tools and parts they need, right-to-repair advocates argue that it’s still not an economical way to repair the devices. It also made the iPhone 14 easier to repair, and the iPhone 15 Pro is rumored to be easier to repair, too.
