Samsung, the largest smartphone manufacturer in the world, announced Thursday that it will begin selling specific smartphone parts directly to customers so they can repair their own devices, mirroring similar announcements made by Apple and Microsoft. 

The announcement is another sign that the right-to-repair movement is gaining steam, and that manufacturers see the status quo—where they have worked to secure repair monopolies over their devices—as perhaps politically untenable. President Biden in recent months has made right-to-repair one of his administration’s priorities, directing the Federal Trade Commission to determine whether the repair policies of major electronics and agricultural manufacturers are illegal.
