Why you should never choose home service for repairs?
For all iPads, iPhones or any other similar electronic device
There is a recent trend by certain service providers to offer iPhone and iPad repairs at home. Repairing these devices requires specific processes, and they cannot be adequately completed without specialized tools. Thus, CelMetro recommends against availing a service of this nature in the interest of safeguarding the life of the device that has been damaged.
Here are some of the main reasons why:
- ESD, or Electrostatic Discharge, can cause multiple problems for the device being repaired. Without an ESD-protected environment, your device can undergo damage that can permanently diminish the capabilities of the motherboard and other components within an iPhone or iPad. Even if the problem isn’t visible right away, it could cause a reduction in battery life, flickering of the screen, or even render the device irreparable.
- Repairing an iPhone or iPad is a complex exercise. It requires proper lighting, a complete set of tools, and a sequenced set of tasks to ensure the device in hand is protected from harm.
- In some instances, if the technician does not have the right tools, they might try to accomplish the task with makeshift tools, which can end badly.
Essentially, repairing these devices is like rocket science because it requires a specialized environment. You might save a few hours, but you could end up with an even bigger problem with your iPhone or iPad than you started with. To get it right the first time.
