Apple's Self Service Repair Store now covers the iPhone 18 Pro, Mac Studio and Mac mini, so owners can buy parts and fix some problems themselves.
Apple has started selling repair parts for the iPhone 18 Pro, the iPhone 18 Pro Max, and its newest Mac Studio and Mac mini computers. Owners who want to repair their own device, instead of sending it in, now have the parts and tools to try.
Apple launched its Self Service Repair program in 2022. In eligible regions, people can buy replacement parts and buy or rent the tools needed to fix supported devices. The store has now added these newer models.
The one price confirmed is for the iPhone 18 Pro camera. A replacement is $249, the same as last year's models, even though the new phones add a variable-aperture system. Apple gives a $59.76 credit for sending back the old camera, which brings the cost to $189.24.
Prices for the other parts were not given. The report also does not list which regions are eligible. Apple also publishes official repair manuals with step-by-step instructions for each part that can be replaced.
If you own one of these new Apple devices, check the Self Service Repair Store and the repair manuals before deciding how to fix a broken part.
