I don&#x27;t think that Apple makes a lot of money from repairs, as claimed by this (rather silly) article. It&#x27;s more a case that iPhones, MacBooks, etc are designed and manufactured for thinness, irregular battery shapes, etc, so that they don&#x27;t lend themselves well to end user repair. There are many other device options out there for people who don&#x27;t like this approach.
