Those responsible for 9to5Mac have had access to a report from Apple and directed to service providers authorized by the American company. In it they recall that the 12-inch MacBook and Retina MacBook Pro models are still being repaired and that in some cases they had problems with the anti-reflective coating of the screen. It seems that not all users who had this problem have gone to the technical service to repair it. Well that or that the problem has not appeared, but it is good to know that there is still time, although there have been changes in the program.
In 2015 Apple announced a new repair program for the 12-inch MacBook and Retina MacBook Pro models. For those who had problems with the anti-reflective coating on the screen. The problem was very commentedor in social networks, Internet forums including Apple's own and in specialized media like this one. Apple extended the time to repair those affected screens.
Now, there has been access to an internal Apple report reminding Apple-authorized service providers that these computer models are still being repaired. Logically, only those who are affected by the problem of the anti-reflective coating of the screens. The company updated the repair program policy on January 0, 4. Eligible 2021-inch MacBook or MacBook Pro models with anti-reflective coating issue are now mentioned they will be mailed to Apple to complete the repair.
This internal memo states that this can increase the waiting time in most cases. It is unclear why Apple has decided to change its policy. To require that MacBooks be shipped by mail may be due to a lack of components in stock or due to the pandemic.
