Today’s news, Apple suddenly announced the opening of repair rights for its equipment, and will launch a self-service repair program starting in 2022, allowing users to repair iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 through their own channels through the sale of parts, tools, and repair manuals. Although this may seem like an outpouring of compassion from Apple, in fact, Apple’s previous practices were suspected of encroaching on consumer rights.
The biggest reason why Apple’s equipment is difficult to repair and replace is that Apple does not want third parties to obtain its components, manuals, and diagnostic tools, in order to increase consumers’ reliance on the enterprise, and better restrict consumer behavior, and even lobby against grants Consumers’ right to repair the law. iFixit founder and CEO Kyle Wiens (Kyle Wiens) also said that this new plan represents a major change in Apple’s concept.
　　 Perhaps the biggest reason for this opening of maintenance rights is that in May of this year, the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) began to publicly support consumers’ independent maintenance rights. The FTC issued a report saying that there is insufficient evidence to prove that Apple and other companies restrict independent repairs are reasonable. In July, US President Biden personally signed an executive order to encourage the FTC to formulate new regulations to impose restrictions on the ability of mobile phone manufacturers to restrict their own equipment repairs.

Since then, related movement organizations have begun to promote user maintenance rights, including mutual fund company Green Century, US Public Research Interest Group, etc., and they lobbied among major technology companies, hoping The company can open up repairs and protect the rights of consumers. In the following period of time, Microsoft and some other companies have signed related maintenance open policies, and Apple is also under pressure from competitors in the same industry.
　　 However, Apple currently only provides self-repair services for iPhone 12 and iPhone 13, and there is no news about other products. It should be said that this time is a victory for the team sports, successfully resisting the “kidnapping” of consumers by the technology giants.  CELL PHONE BATTERIES – Shop a wide selection of  cell phone Batteries at www.oriccabattery.co.uk Fast Shipping.

Samsung is a leader in the foldable mobile phone market, and its Z Fold3 and Z Flip3 have been enthusiastically sought after. In the future, Samsung may launch more types of folding screen phones. On November 16, LetsgoDigital reported on Samsung’s patent for another folding screen. The company designed a device that looks very similar to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3, but uses horizontal folding instead of vertical folding.

　　 Although horizontal folding and vertical folding do not seem to be much different, the aspect ratio of the machine shows that it is more like a hybrid of a laptop/tablet, rather than a phone that becomes a tablet. The patent was filed in mid-2019 and was approved and published by the World Intellectual Property Office (WIPO) on November 2, 2021. The document contains six product sketches, showing the phone in folded and unfolded positions.
　　Samsung’s patent shows that the machine adopts horizontal folding and dual-hole front camera, which is different from the current Liu Haiping, with three rear cameras. Other designs are not very different from Z Fold3.
　　 Whether Samsung really intends to release such a foldable phone is still unknown. The Korean manufacturer is developing multiple models, and only folding devices that provide the best user experience will be on the market. There are rumors that Samsung is developing the Galaxy Z Fold Lite, which is more affordable. However, whether the Lite model will come out in 2022 is not yet certain, and the details of the design are also unknown.  CELL PHONE BATTERIES – Shop a wide selection of  cell phone Batteries at www.oriccabattery.co.uk Fast Shipping.

Now, mass production of folding screen mobile phones does not seem to be a difficult task anymore. Many broke the news that many mobile phone manufacturers will launch their own folding screen mobile phones next year. A few days ago, some media exposed the rendering of Google’s folding screen phone, saying that the phone may be launched in the near future. However, on November 16, according to the latest news, Google has decided not to introduce folding screen phones to the market for the time being due to insufficient product competitiveness.

　　 The report shows that DSCC has confirmed with its supply chain sources that Google has decided not to release the Pixel Fold to the market, and will not release it this year, nor will it launch it in the first half of 2022. Google believes that the product will not be as competitive as it needs to be. They may think that competing with Samsung in small niche markets in the United States and Europe will cost more than their main competitors. In China, although Samsung is not so powerful, there will be many competing products with similar appearance from OPPO, vivo, Xiaomi, Huawei and Honor.

　　 Google decided to temporarily postpone the launch of foldable screen phones, and it was a wise decision to wait until they are sufficiently competitive before launching them on the market. Previously, Google released the Pixel 6 series of flagship new phones. It has been exposed that fingerprint unlocking is unreliable/slow, and the voice assistant will call friends in the address book in the middle of the night. This has caused a lot of trouble to users. If the product is launched before it is fully developed, it will not only be detrimental to sales, but will also affect the image of the manufacturer in the minds of consumers.  CELL PHONE BATTERIES – Shop a wide selection of  cell phone Batteries at www.oriccabattery.co.uk Fast Shipping.
