The quality at Apple, in both software and hardware, has obviously declined in the past couple years as their supply chain has come under strain.
In the past three years:
my MacBook has had replaced
- The screen
- The battery
- The keyboard
My iPad had it's screen replaced, and my iPhone had its battery replaced.
None of these are covered under AppleCare, they've all been replaced under individual recall programs.
Sure, they have fixed each issue for free, so that's fine, but for what is supposed to be the most dependable consumer hardware on the market, it's rather surprising.
