I can’t believe I even have to say this out loud: do not be the idiot who breaks their new $2,000 iPhone Duo by peeling off the nano-texture layer that covers the inner screen. This morning, YouTuber Quinn Nelson, aka Snazzy Labs, shared on X a list of AppleCare+ prices that Apple will be charging for various repairs, replacements, and servicing for the upcoming iPhone Duo. Notably, the “cover layer” for the inner screen will cost $19, which is good news, because it’s sure better than paying to replace the entire display if only the surface is damaged. Tech journalist Nicolas Lellouche chimed in, saying, “Apple told me during the event you would be able to replace the Nano texture cover anytime to reduce the crease or remove the damage. Technically speaking, you can remove it by yourself and have a brilliant display.” “This is a GAME Changer if you prefer a glossy display on the iPhone Duo with much better contrast vs a less visible crease,” said YouTuber Vadim Yuryev, who runs the popular Max Tech channel that benchmarks mostly Apple devices. With all due respect to the both of them, do not f*cking do that. Let me repeat it again: do not remove the nano-texture layer on the iPhone Duo’s inner screen yourself just to get a glossy screen. Just because Apple’s repair gurus can professionally replace the cover layer doesn’t mean you, John Smith, should attempt it. Read the full story at our link in bio.
