In the technology world, there are many applications that are called the background of the work. There are details that you may have never seen on the screens that we have been using constantly until today. One of these appeared in Apple’s iPhones. What if we were to say that Apple saves millions of dollars thanks to the secret codes it adds to iPhone screens? Here are the details…
Apple saves millions of dollars with secret codes added to iPhone screens!
If you have an iPhone, when you remove its screen, you may encounter 2 codes on the back. But you will have a really hard time seeing these at first. Because both of these codes are as big as the mark left by a crayon on paper. For this reason, even a diet consisting entirely of carrots will not enable you to see the codes the first time.
We can say that these codes are actually the codes that Apple follows. This tracking is not user or technical service focused. For a while, the companies from which Apple purchased screens took the easy way out. Brands tried to hide from Apple how many of the screens produced were defective and how many were healthy. This situation required Apple’s intervention, and the company began printing codes on the back of the screens produced.
USB-C is just the beginning: Europe will break the Apple ‘spell’!
The decisions taken by the European Union show that Apple services have to be opened to competitors. Here are the details.
Using these codes, Apple began to calculate how many screens were healthy and how many were defective, and how much damage this situation caused in mass production. The costs involved in purchasing a large batch of iPhone screens are quite significant because we are talking about a loss that can be equivalent to one third in a million-dollar deal.
Finally, we would like to give a small footnote for those who are interested. If you are using an iPhone model manufactured before 2020, you will probably have only one code on your screen. However, if your phone is manufactured after 2020, there will be 2 codes on the back. However, as we said, it is necessary to use a special device to see these codes.
