Global expansion of iFixit partnership
encourages repair over replacement
Logitech International (SIX: LOGN) (Nasdaq: LOGI) announces the
availability of original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacement
parts for more than 20 Logitech devices on the Logitech Repair Hub,
hosted by iFixit. This action marks a significant global expansion,
with spare parts and repair guides now offered in multiple
languages to enhance repairability worldwide. A range of Logitech
and Logitech G mice, keyboards, and headsets are supported by
iFixit across 62 countries, including the United States, Canada,
Australia, Japan, and Europe.
“Our products are designed for exceptional quality and
longevity. Repairability extends their lifespan further - enhancing
value and customer satisfaction,” said Prakash Arunkundrum, chief
operating officer at Logitech. “Normal wear and tear is inevitable,
which is why we strive to make it simpler for people to access
original Logitech replacement parts for their devices. Having
global iFixit community repair guides in multiple languages
encourages more people to do straightforward repairs, saving them
money and reducing waste."
A 2021 YouGov survey revealed that 54% of global consumers
prefer repairing electronic devices over replacing them, with
affordability playing a key role in this decision. Similarly, a
2024 Consumer Reports survey found that 7 in 10 consumers felt
keeping repair costs reasonably priced was the most important
factor when deciding between repairing or replacing a product.
Further supporting this trend, another survey indicates 84% of
Americans favor ‘right to repair’ policies. This deepens Logitech’s
commitment to accessible repair options through its partnership
with iFixit.
Logitech initially partnered with iFixit to facilitate the
availability of spare parts, support beyond-warranty repair on
select products, and repair guides to support repairs in the United
States. As part of the recent global expansion, iFixit communities
across the world can now find simple, easy-to-follow repair
instructions in English, German, French, Spanish, Dutch, Italian,
Korean, and Japanese. Supported products now include: all MX Master
and MX Anywhere computer mice, MX Master 3S Mouse, MX Keyboard, PRO
X Superlight Mouse, G305 Mouse, GPRO Mouse, G502 Hero Mouse, G915
Keyboard, GPRO Headset, GPRO X Headset, G733 Headset, and Zone
Learn. The replacement parts available on iFixit are original
manufacturer parts from Logitech, so people know they will function
and fit properly with their Logitech devices.
“We’re thrilled to be in a world where companies like Logitech
distinguish themselves by the repairability of their devices. The
growing momentum on repairability in the tech industry is spurring
companies to design devices with replaceable components and ease of
maintenance,” said Matt Zieminski, VP of Partnerships at iFixit.
“The Logitech G733 has repair-friendly features, like detachable
ear pads and a simple parts replacement process, making it easy for
people to handle repairs confidently.”
Replaceable parts and repair guides for select Logitech and
Logitech G devices can be found on the Logitech Repair Hub on
iFixit worldwide. Learn about how Logitech is intentional about
