Apple will allow unofficial iPhone repairs while retaining its warranty

Apple has just released an unprecedented internal release regarding warranties and repairs policies. As you know, in a generalized way, if you take your gadgets to repair to an unofficial technical service during the period of validity of the warranty , you lose your rights over it.

Well, since now the iPhone whose screens have been repaired or replaced by unofficial establishments, will continue to retain Apple's official warranty if they are during the two years of validity.

The procedure so far if you had any problems with the screen and went to the Apple Authorized Service or an Apple Store, the first thing the staff did was to inspect the device for outside manipulation or fraud and if they found, To its replacement by applying the tariffs .

But now it will not be so and the repair will be free , whether it is within the two year warranty or we have contracted the AppleCare service. On the contrary, if the iPhone is out of warranty, logically the user will bear the applicable repair costs out of warranty

Of course, there are two exceptions to keep in mind : if a part replaced or repaired by an unauthorized technician causes Apple's repair or manipulation to be unsatisfactory or even breaks the device, then Apple will require iPhone owners to pay The rates of both the repair and the replacement of the terminal, if necessary. Come on, you pay for a new iPhone.

If you also want to replace an unofficial piece - for example a screen - with an official, Apple also urges its technical services to apply the out-of-warranty rates, even if AppleCare is hired. Also, keep in mind that AppleCare does not cover replacement of screens or batteries, probably the parts most susceptible to damage.
