iPhone Repair At Home: Apple’s Solution Is A Big Joke
As you know, Apple has been offering for a few days (in the USA only) to repair your iPhone at home via a system of high-level tools and instructions.

Why waste a day, tear your hair out in front of equipment intended for professionals and risk causing damage to your device, rather than simply bringing it to the Apple Store with the guarantee of a job well done? Dismantling an iPhone and replacing the defective parts will remain (for the moment) a complex operation, not easily accessible to everyone and which will always require fairly heavy tools. Forcing Apple to offer an alternative therefore does not make much sense , as long as the product has not been planned, from the outset, to be repaired more simply.
