If you have just gotten your hands on the new iPhone 15 or the Plus variant, the good news is that Apple Stores and Apple Authorized Service Providers will be able to individually repair the bottom-right microphone. This is something great because if your iPhones do experience some issues, then you will not have to run into any issues with the phone as you can get easily repaired, and if you have been waiting to get things sorted, this is a great way to sort it out.
The entire iPhone 15 series is proof that Apple wants the phones to have easy repairability and reduced cost
The new process that will replace the microphone on the iPhone 15 series will make the repairs cheaper, too, and the best part is that the technician will not have to go through complicated methods to repair the microphone.
Now, if you are wondering about whether the repair process for the iPhone 15 series and all the older models, then things are a bit different because replacing the microphone will require the technician to replace the entire mid-frame chassis of the iPhone, and this is why it is such a big deal because Apple has simplified the process a lot more than it was before. Sadly, it is not all good because if you are looking at a different microphone than the one mentioned above, all iPhones will need to have their entire mid-frame removed and replaced.
While I understand that the repair process is still not as streamlined as some of us had hoped, it is nice to see that Apple is taking the initiative to make things a lot easier for the new iPhone 15 owners. We recently talked about how replacing the back glass of the new Pro models is a lot cheaper than it was on the previous iPhones, which means Apple is slowly coming to terms with the fact that modern-day smartphones need to be easier to repair, and that certainly is a step in the right direction. Here is hoping that with the iPhone 16 series, we get better repairability than it is at the time of writing.
