    Then I have a Samsung phone to sell you. Where the OS updates frequently to cut your battery’s lifespan in half, and a screen that looks beautiful but costs 300 dollars to replace, unless you want an aftermarket part with half the refresh rate and pixel quality off ebay.

    You’re not getting a repairable device for just yourself to repair. You’ll also be making your life easier when you go to a repair shop and a technician like me has to look at the hoops to jump through to get it resolved (passing the costs onto you ofc).

    Unless you have money to burn. Then buy a subscription repair service like AppleCare or Samsung+. At least those guys work on salary.

      Yeah, I guess that there aren’t all that many places that make hard to repair products but also sell affordable replacement parts.
