Although Surface parts have been available for some time, they were only available for commercial customers. However, now anyone can purchase parts, such as Solid-State Drives, batteries, displays, and more.<\/p>\n<p>According to the company <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.windows.com\/devices\/2023\/06\/14\/announcing-the-availability-of-consumer-replacement-components-for-surface-devices\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">announcement<\/a>, the replacement parts are for technically consumers to perform self-repairs for out-of-warranty devices. Also, when buying a new component, you will receive the &#8220;collateral components (such as screws if applicable).&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>However, you won&#8217;t get the tools to perform the repair. Instead, you will have to purchase the necessary tools from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ifixit.com\/Search?doctype=product&amp;query=surface%20tools\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">iFixit<\/a>. Microsoft has previously partnered with the company to sell official Surface repair tools.<\/p>\n<p>The only caveat about this initiative is that the components you can order depend on the Surface model. For instance, if you have a Surface Pro 7, the only part you can order is the kickstand. On the other hand, if you have a Surface Pro 9, when you will be able to replace the display, storage drive, battery, ports, speakers, wireless adapter, and even the thermal modules.<\/p>\n<p>Each component&#8217;s price will differ depending on the Surface model you&#8217;re trying to repair. For example, the display replacement for the <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/surface-studio-2-plus-full-tech-specs\/\">Surface Studio 2 Plus<\/a> is $1749.99, while the battery for the <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/surface-pro-9-full-tech-specs\/\">Surface Pro 9<\/a> is $239.99, and the kickstand is $56.99.
