• iFixit has announced they are dropping the iPhone 14’s repairability score.
• Apple has reportedly made it difficult for independent repair shops to repair the device.
• The way Apple has approached repairability is causing some repair professionals to leave the business entirely.

In 2022, the iPhone 14 received praise for being the most repairable iPhone since the iPhone 7, according to iFixit‘s repairability score. However, that score is now being downgraded because of the limitations Apple has placed on repairs.

Today, iFixit announced it is revising the iPhone 14’s repairability score. The handset was initially given a recommended 7 out of 10 score for its updated repair-friendly architecture. But the phone will now be downgraded to a do not recommend 4 out of 10.
