I see a lot of commenters really hate Apple, but to clarify, the manual isn’t what’s important here.

According the article, the manuals indicate that the iPhone 16 is actually easier to repair. This is good news for consumers, independent repair shops, and the environment.

You can use a 9-volt battery to remove adhesive and they’ve added more support for Face-ID when replacing the LIDAR sensor.

We still have a long way to go for our right to repair but, the pressure that we put on companies and governments to make change is working. We should celebrate that.
