Apple has added iPhone and MacBook repairability scores to its online store in France to comply with a new French law that came into effect this year. MacGeneration reports that the rating takes into account features like how easily a device can be disassembled and the availability of repair manuals and spare parts. Links to each product’s final score, with details for how they were calculated, are available on this support page.

    Well personally i’m very disappointed by these scores. Apple’s 6/10 both on iFixIt and according to french criteria sounds not so bad for customers, but is pretty bad to do anything with. I agree a linear scoring system for evaluation makes sense, but information should in my opinion be presented in less-granular way, eg. A/B/C for very repairable, moderately repairable, and badly repairable for notes corresponding to 9.5-10/9-9.5/0-9 respectively.
