They also exist in scales up to door-level for i.e. motor control rooms as well.

My guess for the front camera is that now the iPhone 15 takes depth informations on every photos by default.

that's not the reason. The 15 series is storing depth data in every photo now (so you can adjust focus later).

To be fair, some of "calibration" issues can actually be because it's cheaper to handle some unit-to-unit variance in software, rather than tightening the manufacturing tolerances even further, however, the tools for the calibration should be made available, or at least the unavailability should be clearly explained with engineering/expert reasons, rather than "safety, security, innovations, patents" and similar crap.

@@404-Error-Not-Found I agree that they should make it possible to do repairs, but there can be good engineering reasons to require calibration (not serialisation). The go-to example is HDD - if the control board dies, you can't just swap in a replacement, as there's a chip that contains the calibration data for it, which is necessary for the needle to hit all the right places. Without that chip, the drive couldn't work, this is an engineering thing, not an additional conscious decision to make things harder. I'm willing to accept that apple is doing some shady sh*t, possibly including serialisation, but first of all, they should be talking about why these parts cannot be swapped, and they should be offering calibration tools for cheap or free, unless there's a good (engineering, not "safety/security/innovation/patents") reason.

@@florianpeter7045 Ahh ok. Now I understand. I’d like to think my 15 Pro will have similar health after 2 years, but have to wait to know for certain. I will say I’m always skeptical when it comes to Apple and their battery life estimates. The only product of theirs that has really surprised me is the Ultra watch. Lasted almost 3 days before it needed a charge. And I know less charge cycles prolongs the life of the battery.

As an Apple user and employee, it honestly sucks that Apple keeps doing this bs. It honestly doesn’t make any sense to Apple to keep doing this

It’s def not to ‘ save the planet’ thats for sure. Their eco crap is such a lie. If they really cared about the environment they wouldn’t do this kinda stuff

You should try the first ever clear back glass iPhone 15 Pro Max

I know I will never have an iPhone 15 but I have to appreciate how nice it actually looks without apples photo shop the iPhone 15 looks very nice in a nice camera like prg I hope my iPhone 11 doesn’t die soon because I’m broke and could not afford not even an iPhone 13 but thank you prg for doing this now I can consider buying it now and I think it can actually be worth it

I feel like it should be illegal to software-lock functions after replacement of parts. When you buy the phone, you become the legal owner of it. Replacing parts is your legal right as an owner, and I feel like apple preventing that by disabling features is them overstepping their role as manufacturer. Why do they get away with that?

Could you try swapping the ambient light sensor? If that brings back auto brightness, then i would be willing to deal with no true tone if i ever needed to replace my display

I love to see the inside and I love the way you go investigating in the things that dont work no more after repair. Question: Are you gonna do an clear mod on the 15 pro max backglass? I would love to see that and I think its also better to do with this one considering it doesn't do anything bad when you swap the back glass. edit: I just saw the short in where you scraped off the back glass paint and looked at the clear 14 so that answers my question

Fun fact: the normal iPhone 15 still uses USB 2.0 while the more 'expensive' ones use USB 3

theres alot of things i can understand companies wanting to do after "Unauthorized repairs" Messages saying its "Ingenuine" is honestly a good message, but not when you are using a part supplied by apple, its oke if its from a 3rd party, iphones get sold used alot and its nice there are signs to see what parts have been changed, but if they are changed with genuine apple parts there should be no reason for the phone to act up or straight up disable functions or features.

security measures

I have a SE 2020 and about a year and a half ago, my front camera just stopped working like what you saw. I’ve never had any work done on my phone. I’m pretty careful with it and have a screen protector and a case. I figured it just was done

I'm curious about how apple gets phones to recognize new components when they have been repaired by a "genuine apple" repair shop. Surely they must have a way to circumvent the serialization issue?

I really hope the European Union sues Apple for the bad practices.

Wait what did you do with the 5g antenna Because it should be under the motherboard attached but it wasn't when you unscrewed it. Where did it go?

If you replace only the glass. Keep all the stock internals to it. does the front camera work then? Or when you order a new screen does it come with a new LCD and front camera pre installed? Can you fully remove the LCD? I've never actually looked that in depth to changing a screen out, sorry in advance if I sound stupid

I'll wait until next year. They really tone down the USB C speed.

who cares

This is probably the first time I got a little shaken up watching an apple related video. I've been an iPhone user for almost 8 years now and I've stood by apple for a lot of their things, but this really made me question and think a lot of this through. I recently upgraded to an iPhone 14 from my old iPhone X for my birthday this passed July. Fortunately I've never been in a situation where I've had to repair my phones, but after taking my computer in because of issues a few weeks ago and paying so much for it, It kinda worries me. I can kind of understand apple's side of things when it comes to components and stuff, but on the third party side of things I can understand things being an issue for both the employees and customers. , especially for people on a limited budget, like myself. It's not always ideal to take it into an Apple Store and pay high prices for repairs. Definitely a complicated issue all around that I prefer to stay neutral about.

I agree it’s complicated. Many people just think it’s about Apple hating consumers or something but it’s clear they do this type of stuff to prevent counterfeit parts being used on devices. Or from scrappers trying to use random components from different phones to create a new phone. But on the other hand, Apple SHOULD make it easier for consumers and repair techs to pair new parts to a different phone. They have a software that they can use to do that but I don’t think it’s as accessible as it should be. But that’s just my opinion.

​@@FlyByWire1that's very bold of you to assume apple cares about its consumers buying counterfeit parts. Apple doesn't hate its consumers. They love their consumers, they make them billions. They know if they make stuff like this no matter what people will still buy them. I guarantee it's going to get worse. It's easy money. Only legislation will stop them now. Counterfeit parts were always a thing, and yet repairing iPhones back then was so easy because of reputable sellers. Repair shops know where to buy their supplies. They'd lose business if they sold them broken parts. The counterfeit excuse is so dumb

@@TheByrd this comment screams “I know nothing about software or hardware development at all.” If you don’t have any safeguards for possible harm caused by counterfeit parts, Apple is leaving themselves open to lawsuits and runaway liability in the event that something does go wrong. Many companies use different types of software safeguards against non-genuine parts including Samsung and most hardware OEMs, not just Apple. But I wouldn’t expect you to understand anything about software or hardware at all. Your mind is so basic that you just think “Apple no let me do whatever with my phone so that must mean they hate all consumers 🤪🤪🤪.” I swear y’all are literally braindead

Apple will never make a phone with a user-serviceable back, and neither will literally any other relevant smartphone manufacturer. Those days are long gone. I think they switched to this design because the default procedure of giving someone an entirely new iphone when they come in for a back glass repair is starting to become costly.
