Apple's Self Service Repair service is now available. It provides repair manuals, plus genuine Apple parts and tools through the Apple Self Service Repair Store. Why does it matter? The service gives you the choice to repair your own Apple devices at home, rather than bringing them to a store or a third-party repair shop. You can literally do it yourself with approved components and step-by-step instructions. What's my take? This is a great idea and one that's been a long time coming. You'll need courage though, that's for sure - it might save a "few bob", but taking apart a £1,500 iPhone with some tools you've had delivered in the post definitely favours the brave. - [Apple Self Service Repair explained: How to fix an iPhone or Mac yourself]( Xbox has led the market in sales for two quarters running Pocket-lint What's happened? Microsoft has [announced]( that its Xbox consoles have led the market in next-gen console sales for two quarters running, seeing it hit back against Sony's PlayStation 5. Why does it matter? The cheaper price of the Xbox Series S and PS5 stock issues must be taken into account, but this still represents positive news for Microsoft and the future of its console hardware business. What's my take? Sony has dominated the "console wars" since the PS4 launched almost a decade ago, but it looks like things are now reaching parity this generation. There are likely to be several factors at play here, not helped by supply chain issues that have dogged both Xbox and, especially, PlayStation. But, I think there's another factor too. It feels to me that Microsoft's gamble with Xbox Games Pass is finally beginning to turn the tide. That's something PlayStation has clearly noticed too, with it's own "all-you-can-eat" ganes service launching in June. Regardless of who sells more, there is one big winner here: the gamer. - Xbox Series X vs PS5: [Which one should you get?]( A MESSAGE FROM SPONSOR 5 reasons to have a battery camera to keep an eye on your home Ezviz The EZVIZ BC2 is the perfect solution for anyone who wants the benefits of a camera without the hassle or expense of a traditional system.
