Apple SIM card pin sells for 26 yuan, this price is really apple
I heard that Apple has launched a self-service repair service only two days ago. I thought that Apple was really kind. Who would have seen the news today that Apple SIM card needles are selling for 26 yuan; I can only silently say that the price is really Apple! Although the price is clearly marked, but the price is also intoxicating.
Previously, Apple officially launched a self-service repair service. You can repair at home after purchasing parts of Apple’s mobile phones, and repair at home after purchasing various parts of Apple’s mobile phones. Now it is the iPhone 12, iPhone 13 series models and The third-generation iPhone SE can be repaired by yourself; there will be computers and tablet computers in the later stage, and these will also be added. Is this going to kill the repair shop? Does Apple still let people live well?
U.S. iPhone users can obtain repair manuals and genuine Apple parts and tools through Apple Self-Service Shops. Apple offers a mobile phone self-service tool rental kit, which is priced at $49 for a one-week rental period.
Because some old users do have maintenance needs, some small problems can also be done by themselves. Of course, your SIM card removal needle probably doesn’t know where to throw it? Don’t be afraid, Apple is very user-friendly, 26 yuan will give you a special SIM card needle for Apple; 47 will give you a SIM card tray.
In addition to Apple, Google has also done the same. Google has partnered with iFixit to start providing users with a self-service smartphone repair service in some regions. The launch of this service allows users to purchase accessories on the platform, and then mail them to their hands to replace and repair.
I wonder if domestic mobile phone companies will follow up this new business of selling parts in disguise in the future? Will you choose this service?
