What could be a step in the right direction
Apple does a fantastic job of supporting its older devices with software, but it doesn't have a perfect track record when it comes to repairing them.
Good news, it seems the Cupertino-based company is looking into launching a “Repair Vintage Apple Products” pilot program according to a 9to5Mac report. This new program will apparently support a small selection of older Apple devices about to fall into obsolescence including the iPhone 5 (both GSM and CDMA versions).
The initial list of devices Apple’s new program may also include are:
- MacBook Air (11-inch, Mid 2012)
- MacBook Air (13-inch, Mid 2012)
- iMac (21.5-inch, Mid 2011) – US and Turkey only
- iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) – US and Turkey only
From there, Apple will purportedly add the even older devices to its “Repair Vintage Apple Products” program in waves. According to 9to5Mac, the schedule of supported hardware will expand as follows:
- iPhone 4S – November 30, 2018
- MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2012) – November 30, 2018
- MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2012) – December 30, 2018
- MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2013) – December 30, 2018
- MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012) – December 30, 2018
- Mac Pro (Mid 2012) – December 30, 2018
The program supposedly covers all the devices listed above at Apple Stores and authorized service providers worldwide unless otherwise noted.

The next time I read a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I actually thought youd have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you could fix if you werent too busy looking for attention.
