Apple is expanding its self-service repair program by selling parts for the iPhone 16 and 16 Pro directly to consumers, allowing for DIY repairs on commonly damaged parts like cameras, displays, and back glass. . Released with official repair manuals in September, these parts can be a cost-saving option, though prices vary by model.

Available Parts and Pricing

The self-service repair store now offers parts for the iPhone 16 and 16 Pro, covering key components like cameras, displays, back glass, and batteries. Here’s a breakdown of the parts and their costs:

  • Camera Assembly: $169 for the iPhone 16/16 Plus, $249 for the 16 Pro/Pro Max.
  • Displays: Starting at $279 for the base models, up to $379 for the Pro models.
  • Batteries: Priced at $99 for standard models and $119 for Pro models.

These parts are more affordable than some professional repair services, especially if users are comfortable with DIY repairs.

Apple also released official iPhone 16 self-service repair manuals in September, providing step-by-step guidance for performing repairs. The manuals are detailed, covering safety precautions, tool usage, and proper assembly steps, which helps DIY approach repairs with confidence.

Additionally, Apple has introduced a remote diagnostic tool. This tool allows consumers to run a diagnostic check after performing a repair, ensuring that the replacement part is functioning correctly. For example, users can test their new display, battery, or camera assembly to verify that it integrates properly with the device’s system.

Apple’s move reflects a gradual shift towards more repairability, something consumers and advocates have long requested. Over the years, Apple faced criticism for tightly controlling repairs, often limiting third-party repair options or refusing to supply parts to independent repair shops. As a result, Apple’s expanding self-service repair program represents a major shift, potentially easing the financial and logistical burden on iPhone owners who prefer DIY repairs.

Impact on the Repair Industry

With Apple officially embracing DIY repairs, there may be broader implications for the repair industry. Independent repair shops may see reduced demand for simpler repairs, as more consumers opt for self-service.

Apple’s willingness to support some third-party components could encourage further collaboration between OEMs and independent repair providers, ultimately increasing affordability and convenience for consumers.

Apple’s self-service repair expansion for iPhone 16 models is a win for consumers interested in DIY repair.
