Microsoft and iFixit team up on official repair kits for Surface devices

By Caleb Clark Published December 14, 2021

Microsoft continues to make strides as the Right to Repair movement gains traction, partnering with iFixit to release Pro repair kits to technicians for its Surface devices. It’s a big win for Right to Repair.

The repair kit is available as part of the iFixit Pro program and is not available to average consumers — at least right now. However, the kit features some handy tools that will help technicians add to the life cycle of Microsoft devices for their customers.

The kit comes with three primary components: A Surface Display Debonding Tool, the Surface Display Bonding Frame, and the Surface Battery Cover.

The Surface Display Debonding Tool helps separate the screen from the rest of the product. The device guarantees that an opening pick does not go too far into the body when trying to separate the screen. It is designed for the Pro 7+, Pro 8, and Pro X.

The Bonding Frame is designed to work with weights and helps apply even pressure to get a strong adhesive bond when the display is being reattached after a repair. This product is meant for use on the Surface Pro 7+, Surface Pro 8, and the Pro X.

The Surface Battery Cover does exactly what it says; it’s placed on top of the opened device to prevent any unintentional contact between the motherboard and other sensitive components. The Battery Cover works with the Surface Laptops 3 and 4, Surface Laptop Go, Surface Laptop SE, and the Surface Laptop Studio.

All of these products were designed by Microsoft but produced and sold by iFixit.

This is yet another move by the tech giant that leans into Right to Repair. Last month, the company announced the Surface Laptop SE, a student-oriented laptop designed for simple repairability. It is set to launch in early 2022. We’ll have to wait and see how repairable it actually is.

This news comes just a few weeks after Apple announced that it would offer repair kits for its devices as well.

When the iPad is a better computer than my PC

Apple iPad Pro 11 with Apple Magic Keyboard.

Can the iPad work as a real computer? I'm well aware that I'm not first to raise this question. It is, however, the first time for me to ask the question of myself. After all, everyone's needs for a proper "computer" are different, and I've never given it a fair shake.

I'm running an iPad Pro 11-inch that uses an 8-core CPU/10-core GPU Apple M2, which is an insane amount of power to pack into a tablet. And I've recently added a Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil into the mix, making it look a lot like a regular laptop. It still has limitations, but with all that on doard, I found myself surprised at how good of a computer the iPad Pro can really be.
What's a real computer, anyway?

Why I finally gave up and embraced Apple’s walled garden

After decades as a diehard Windows user, I've made the switch to all-Apple computing. I ditched my Windows PC and laptop, my Android smartphone, and my Wear OS smartwatch for a MacBook Pro 16, iPad, iPhone, and Watch. I'm all in.

It's still early in the process, but the change has already been illuminating if incredibly costly — it's expensive to make such a significant change in platforms. The transition has required changes to how I get things done, but it's offered some distinct advantages that have made the investment a good one.

I’m worried about the future of the Microsoft Surface

Panos Panay with a Surface

I've always rooted for the Surface. What started exclusively as a way to push the concept of the Windows 2-in-1 has grown into a full-fledged premium laptop brand, with options at nearly every price point.

But after a year like 2023, it's hard not to feel like we may be reaching a turning point for the brand.
