We know that COVID-19 has changed the way we live and work in a short time. Everything got effected. Some people in the cellphone repair industry winded up their businesses to avoid loss, while many businesses shifted towards digital experience and adapted the new trends according to the requirements. In the meantime, this $4 billion industry continued to grow as more people were using their smartphones while staying at home.
With the heavy usage of cellphones since the beginning of the pandemic, the cellphone repair industry is frequently in a state of change. Apple, Samsung, and Google, all the big names in the market, didn’t stop their launches. Apple launched its latest models (iPhone 12, iPhone Mini, and Pro), Samsung brought A series, and Google released its Pixel 4A and 4A XL, with never-before-seen features. All the new launches created a high chance of learning for cellphone repair technicians around the globe.
While keeping up with these changes is a challenge, but it’s what makes being a repair tech such an all-time-learning job. You never know which device is going to roll into your shop, and what problem it may have that needs fixing. That’s why your mobile repair technicians should have the right training to make sure you can satisfy your customers.
