Mumu op they didn't mean Apple couldn't fix it what he meant was apple couldn't fix it for free because it was outside warranty

So he got it fixed here in Nigeria at a cheaper rate when you convert the dollar to naira


The guy is not mumu, first the Canada resident said Apple could not repair it, and also could not replace it as it had passed the warranty period, there is no mention of the price for fixing.

Taking to his Twitter handle on 15th March, Tunde Omotoye explained that the Apple Watch developed a fault and he took it to the company in Toronto to repair it but they couldn't fix it.

Apple and many other electronic companies use 3rd party repair shops in Canada.

The repair shop could not repair it and not Apple.

U guys can't just accept the fact that a Nigerian engineer did what apple couldn't do because u feel white men are omniscience. All these things u guys are saying are just excuses. Naija has got talents

Canadians are lazy physically but they have good government ... Had a transmitter returned but it took them 6 months to get it done. Subsequent ones took me 1hr to fix by myself. Only if Nigeria has good government like Canada

You are the mumu here, oga.
Read it again maybe you will understand it this time:
Apple couldn't repair it in Toronto. (Note the full stop) It passed the warranty period so they couldn’t replace it either.

Apple couldn't repair the watch (no specific detail given on why they couldn't, full stop). And apple couldn't give him new watch for replacement either because the warranty period has elapsed.

You can say what you like but we get our things fixed without having half of the resources outside world have that's not dumbness buh smartness and been able to survive any weather....
You live in a country.. with 200 fucking million souls.. and we still haven't figured out how to turn on the 'lights'.

When the sun goes, the generators roll out, rolled out by our kids, ourselves... And dem we whyne the cable.... Its our evening ritual. Its how we see at night.

Any animal can survive in harsh conditions. Making those harsh conditions change, or solving the problems/challenged is true intelligence... Not knowig how to survive or manage.

You think say we smart? Lol. We very dumb bleeps.

Apple couldn't fix it not because the warranty had expired but because they thought it was irredeemable. Even if a warranty expires, a company will charge you to fix an item and bill you for it. They couldn't replace it either because the warranty had expired. How hard was it to comprehend?

That's what he meant.

1 Apple couldn't fix it...even though he'd have paid for the service i guess

2 He could have got a replacement for free but the fact that it was out of warranty made it impossible



Have you asked yourself why most Americans rather get another engine for their car than repair their knocked engine?
Have you asked yourself why some rather sell the car than repair the engine?

Do you think their engineers cannot repair it?

It's simply because it makes more economic sense to replace than repair.

Apple service centre are not cut to fix items. They replace when under warranty and expected you to buy another one when out of warranty.

His warranty expired, meaning that apple couldn't fix it for free. He came to Nigeria where the fee is cheaper and fixed it.

Go back and re-read the post and find out that you're the one without understanding. He first of all said that THEY COULD NOT REPAIR it , then ... NEITHER could they REPLACE BECAUSE IT'S OUTSIDE WARRANTY. He never gave the reasons why they couldn't repair. But said that NEITHER could they replace it BECAUSE it was outside warranty.

Exactly

It's called Planned obsolence

Some overseas companies intentionally discourage and steer clear of repairing their old products so as to make the customer abandon the old products and buy new and current and more recent products .

I read somewhere that Apple in the past was found to have given updates that slowed some of their old phones down.

All this are capitalist extremes to get more money
