"Apple Eases Restrictions on iPhone Repairs, Allows Use of Used Genuine Parts"

Apple responds to criticism over iPhone's "parts pairing" process by announcing that customers and independent repair shops will be able to repair select iPhones with used genuine Apple parts starting later this year. Apple's hardware engineering chief John Ternus defended the process, stating that it is necessary for authentication and calibration purposes, and clarified that most third-party parts still work with iPhones.
