Apple expands self repair programme to Mac notebooks with M1 chip

Apple has expanded its self service repair programme to MacBook Air and MacBook Pro notebooks with the M1 family of chips.

The company said it will provide repair manuals and genuine Apple parts and tools through the Apple Self Service Repair Store, beginning with the US.

Self Service Repair for iPhone was launched earlier this year and the programme will now expand to additional countries — beginning in Europe — as well as additional Mac models later this year, Apple said in a statement late on Monday.

“Self Service Repair for MacBook Air and MacBook Pro offers more than a dozen different repair types for each model, including the display, top case with battery, and trackpad, with more to come,” said the iPhone maker.
