If you own a recently released Apple product and accidentally break it, fixing the damage yourself just got a bit easier. On April 8, 2026, the tech company updated its official repair program to include seven brand-new devices. It now sells genuine replacement parts and tools directly to consumers for these recent hardware releases, saving people trips to the repair shop.
These are the supported devices and replacement parts
Through the self-service repair store, everyday users can buy or rent exactly what they need to fix their hardware. The company provides a wide variety of individual components and official repair manuals for the following additions:

Users can order replacement batteries, screens, and speakers for their mobile devices. For complex desktop monitors like the Studio Display XDR, it even sells the outer housing, internal fans, and the main logic board.
The new MacBook is the easiest to self-repair
The most notable addition to the parts catalogue is the MacBook Neo. Independent repair advocates praise the laptop because it uses standard screws to hold the battery and keyboard in place instead of strong glue. Because of this design change, the tech company allows users to replace the keyboard themselves for just $140. In older laptop models, you had to replace the entire aluminum top case just to fix a broken key, which could cost up to $600.
By expanding its self-service repair program, the company gives consumers more control over the lifespan of their electronics. Offering official parts for these seven new devices ensures that users can maintain their hardware safely and effectively for years to come.
