Now offering genuine MacBook and iPhone parts for newer models

If you own a recent MacBook or iPhone, you have probably seen the messages in iOS and macOS warning about “unknown” or “non-genuine” parts after a repair. Apple has made it easier than ever to check whether a device has been repaired with genuine components, especially on newer iPhone models.

To give our customers more confidence and better long-term reliability, AC Computer Warehouse in Stockport now offers repairs using genuine MacBook and iPhone parts for newer models, sourced through authorised channels. That means you can keep your Apple kit running properly, without having to travel to an Apple Store.

Why genuine MacBook and iPhone parts matter

Apple’s own documentation makes it clear that genuine parts are designed and engineered for each specific device and go through extensive testing for quality, safety and reliability.

In practical terms, using genuine MacBook and iPhone parts helps with:

• Maintaining original display quality, colour accuracy and brightness

• Ensuring batteries report health correctly and charge as expected

• Avoiding “Unknown Part” warnings and related feature limitations on newer iPhones

• Repairing Face ID issues

For owners of newer devices, that peace of mind makes a big difference—especially if you plan to keep the device for several years or sell it on later.

Typical repairs using genuine Apple parts

We can now use genuine MacBook and iPhone parts on a range of common repairs, for example:

MacBook repairs

• Replacement displays for cracked or damaged screens

• Batteries that no longer hold charge properly

• Keyboards, trackpads and top cases on heavily used laptops

• Fans and thermal parts for overheating issues

• Ports and I/O boards where charging or USB has failed

iPhone repairs

• Screen replacements with correct brightness, colour and touch response

• Genuine batteries with proper capacity reporting and safety features

• Rear camera modules where focus or stabilisation has failed

• Charging port and speaker assemblies

Using genuine components means the device behaves as close as possible to how it did when it left the factory.

How we source genuine Apple parts

Apple now allows access to genuine parts through programmes such as Self Service Repair and Genuine Parts Distributors. These channels provide the same genuine Apple parts and tools that are supplied to authorised repair providers, designed and tested to meet Apple’s standards for quality and safety.

By sourcing genuine MacBook and iPhone parts through these authorised routes, we can:

• Avoid the risks associated with grey-market or counterfeit components

• Ensure the correct parts are ordered for your exact model and configuration

• Support newer Apple calibration processes so that parts are recognised correctly by the device where applicable

Genuine parts vs cheaper third-party parts

There is still a place for good-quality third-party parts on older devices, particularly where cost is the main concern and Apple’s pairing or parts-history checks are less strict. However, on newer iPhones and MacBooks, non-genuine parts can lead to:

• Warnings in Settings about unknown or non-genuine components

• Features that no longer work exactly as they should (for example True Tone or battery health reporting)

• Inconsistent colour, brightness or touch response on replacement screens

For anyone who wants to keep a newer device “straight” from a resale or reliability point of view, genuine MacBook and iPhone parts are the better long-term choice.
