So while titanium made sense for the outer shell, it didn’t make a difference for the midframe, a hidden yet mechanically complex aluminum part that all the inside phone components mount to. But how do you keep the aluminum midframe and use titanium for the perimeter? Some of my ideas develop from observations on human behaviour and I express them through the objects I create’’ For example, a lens with a focal length of 200mm and a maximum aperture of f/2.8 has to have a front lens element that’s more than 70mm (or 3 inches) wide. And that's not including any manufacturing considerations.

Dominic Wilcox

Dominic Wilcox, a British designer and industrialist, has created the "One Foot Taller" glasses, which are essentially a pair of periscope glasses that let you see over the heads of people in front of you. The glasses are created using a sheet of mirrored acrylic with a 45-degree bend, to ensure the smaller mirror can reflect the larger mirror, which faces outwards, giving whoever wears them a better view. Some people get their thrills from bungee jumping or scoring a winning goal at Wembley, but I get mine from coming up with creative ideas’’ Wilcox told the Mirror. Our insights aren’t confined to iPhones; we’ve witnessed analogous situations with MacBooks and iPads where the stranglehold on repairability is tightening, restricting the remit of repairs to Apple or forcing compromises on independent repairs. The slew of software hindrances significantly overshadow any mechanical advancements in design. iPhone 15 camera screw, top. Equivalent iPhone 14 screw, bottom. A Great Design Undermined by Parts PairingAn inventor has created the ultimate concert accessory to solve all your vertically-challenged problems. It’s time for an urgent conversation about Apple’s approach to repairability. Despite our enthusiasm for iPhone 14’s easier-to-disassemble design, we’ve been compelled to adjust our repairability score from a promising 7 to a discouraging 4, highlighting Apple’s ongoing constriction of repair freedoms through its restrictive parts pairing system. To effectively repair these models, you have to procure parts within Apple’s sphere and validate the repairs. Without calibration, the parts either don’t work at all, or have compromised functionality and incessant warnings. Creativity is just a particular way of thinking that can be learned and practised like any other skill." A periscope is a device for viewing things past obstacles. In this case, the obstacle is the camera itself. The mirrors bounce the light to the side, allowing for a greater focal length between the front lens and the focusing point on the sensor. This inverted chassis arrangement makes critical repairs like battery swaps slightly riskier than on the 14, because you’re removing the expensive, fragile display rather than an inert sheet of glass.

A part installed in a phone should just work. Ever since we invented interchangeable parts in the 1800s, parts have been swappable between products. Software shouldn’t be an obstacle to harvesting parts, or using aftermarket parts for that matter. The entire economy of reuse depends on interoperability, from local repair shops to large scale refurbishers to recyclers. One thing we were not expecting to find is an Apple baseband processor. Apple’s 5G modem team has been toiling in isolation for years without any hardware to show for it. We’re not sure who to feel for, Tim Cook’s wallet or the poor Apple lawyers who had to grovel with Qualcomm a new contract. Amazingly, the hundreds of engineers working on this project for first-Infineon, then-Intel, and now-Apple have yet to ship a single 5G modem to customers. That’s got to be demoralizing.

That dystopian future that science fiction authors warned us was coming, where DRM infected every part of our lives? We’re living in it. The result of these extensive limitations is a major infringement of ownership rights and amplification of the e-waste crisis. Repairability The battery is serviceable only by a trained technician. Fortunately, you can be a trained technician! Simply train yourself using Apple’s service manual (likely coming soon) or iFixit’s repair guides (in progress!). It’s not all that hard, we’ve helped millions of people fix their electronics themselves. A Titanium Housing This part is manufactured with TSMC’s cutting-edge 3nm process, and is unlikely to be beaten by anything else anytime soon as Apple simply bought out the entirety of TSMC’s capacity for the year. Rumors are that yield on this new process are still quite low, making this a particularly expensive part.

Call it creativity or some joke with of course, immense knowledge on ‘observation’, Dominic Wilcox has created the 'One Foot Taller' glasses, a pair of periscopeglasses that allow you to see over the heads of people in front of you. The glasses, according to Wilcox add one foot (or 30.5cm) on to the wearer's normal eye-level. Reducing the mass at the perimeter, which the change from stainless steel to titanium has done, has definitely reduced the moment of inertia more than a uniform reduction in mass would have. And that will make the 15 Pro easier to manipulate and will contribute—at least somewhat—to the impression of lightness.” Dr. DrangParts pairing in these models extends beyond mere mechanical compatibility, requiring authentication and pairing through Apple’s System Configuration tool, further limiting genuine replacements to Apple-blessed ones and substantially impacting independent repair enterprises and the overarching issue of e-waste.
