Apple ends official repairs for all 12-inch MacBook models as 2017 version moves to obsolete service
Apple has classified the 2017 12-inch MacBook as an obsolete service product, meaning all 12-inch MacBook models are no longer eligible for official repair and service support. The company also added the sixth-generation iPad and BeatsX wireless earphones to the obsolete list. Apple distinguishes vintage and obsolete products based on when sales ended, with obsolete status applying after seven years. Users of the newly listed devices may find it difficult to obtain repairs through official channels.
