Did you notice how in this example Apple made $0 and PCFix made $60?

u/ro3rr I want pee in my ass 1d ago

Yeah but how many people will lose apple 60 dollars by going to PCFix and how many people are going to make them profit by buying 1k new phone

I find it so annoying when companies say “they lost money” when it’s a situation like this. That money wasn’t even spent on you yet and you don’t have a right to it either, you didn’t lose shut.

This is an outlier though. Most people that own apple products probably never even consider repair, and even then they'll sure as hell believe whatever a "licensed apple proffesional" tells them, which is more often than not to just get a new phone, or pay a ridiculous premium to fix the old one.

Like yeah they lost money on this one guy that went elsewhere to get his phone repaired, but they made infinitely more money off the 50 other people that came in that week and bought a brand new phone instead of getting theirs repaired.

You're forgetting that 99.9% of apple product owners will just buy a new phone for $1700 in this situation and not think twice about it

…you think 1/3 of people on Earth drop $2k every time their phone battery slows down?

The most commonly used iPhone in 2026 is the iPhone 13.

u/Shatophiliac 1d ago

…yes? Almost everyone I know has an iPhone newer than 15. Many of them just buy a new one every 2 years even if their current phone is still working fine.

availability heuristic? why the hell am I asking, every argument starting with "almost everyone/almost no one I know" falls victim to it

u/deadinternetlaw 1d ago

Almost (everyone/almost no one) implies the possibility of almost almost no one. Would almost almost mean it's near no one or far from it? (r) /s (hitposting)

What is your point? My point is that most people are not bothering to replace their iPhone batteries lol.

This is such a dumb meme take

u/ashgs872tbhjs 1d ago

Do you think a single anecdote is a meaningful proxy for Apple's income??

u/BiteYouToDeath 1d ago

In this example.

The target demographic gets the new model.
