Apple's iPhone 18 Pro has earned a notably high repairability score from iFixit, marking an improvement in the company's historically restrictive approach to device repairs.
The iPhone 18 Pro received praise from iFixit for its repairability compared to previous Apple devices. The rating reflects improvements in access to components and reduced reliance on proprietary parts for common repairs.
Apple has gradually loosened its stance on repairability in recent years, offering self-service repair options and releasing repair documentation for certain models. The iPhone 18 Pro's score suggests this trend continues.
The device still maintains Apple's standard build quality and integration, but key components are reportedly more accessible than in earlier generations. Repairability remains a growing consumer priority, with right-to-repair movements gaining momentum globally.
While the rating is considered good by iPhone standards, it reflects Apple's ongoing balance between design sophistication and repair accessibility. The score positions the iPhone 18 Pro favorably against competitors in terms of long-term repairability.
