iPhone users, what's stopping you from switching to Android? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

You misrepresent the time, tools and knowledge needed to do those repairs.

"10 minutes and some basic repair knowledge" is still misleading even if you are a former sysadmin of 10 years.

Enjoy your overpriced coffee!

No way. You need more than 10 minutes and way more than "basic" repair knowledge.

Iphones are by design extremely hard to repair.

Proprietary screws, glued in components (which needs to be removed and reapplied) and battery management components which need to be resoldered to the new battery so that the phone accepts it.

Its been a while since i have repaired an iphone but i doubt its gotten better.

If you can do it in 10 minutes I will gove you 10 bucks though.

I just rearranged the Episodes so that they match the word order from yoda (for OCD reasons).

Anyone here on a 2nd hand EV? What has the buying/ ownership experience been like so far? in c/evs@lemmy.world

[–] mvpts@feddit.de 24 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Used Hyundai IONIQ (2018) owner here. Buying is difficult, because most sellers know little about electric cars.

I recommend buying cars that come directly from a leasing contract.

Those cars often have low mileage, were serviced regularly and early problems fixed via warranty. Demand and prices for used cars are low because newer EVs have higher mileage in comparison.

Take a OBD dongle with you and read the battery SOH.

Also Check the Manufacturer warranty terms before buying.

All in all - buying a used EV was (longterm) the least expensive option for me and also less risky.

Electronic Systems tend to have more problems early on and way less, once they are "stable".

I recommend.

(But Teslas are a whole chapter for themselves. I heard horror stories with their proprietary systems and app-based-services. Maybe someone else can elaborate)
