iPhone Screen Repair & Replacement: Apple's Terms & Conditions

One of the best ways to repair a broken iPhone is to go the nearest Apple authorised service provider offering genuine and high-quality Apple parts (or parts backed by the company).

Some repair centres can repair your iPhone screen or any issue within the day, depending on the location. However, if a unit needs to be sent to an Apple Repair Centre, you should be able to receive your repaired unit within the week (during off-peak). Note that this isn't always the case. There are reports of customers queueing for a long time - some as long as several months.

Is an iPhone Screen Replacement Costly?

iPhone repairs by Apple are not affordable by any means. But that should be all right if you're willing to pay the price. For budget reasons, though, you can always opt to have your unit repaired by non-Apple iPhone repair companies. They offer cheaper rates at the same quality and even have access to genuine Apple parts.

FYI: accidental damage isn't covered by the Apple warranty. You will have to shoulder the costs. Warranty only applies if an iPhone screen has a factory defect.

Are non-Apple Repair Companies Safe?

If you wish to go down this route, then it's recommended that you do your research first so you can choose the right repair company in Perth. iPhone screen repairs and battery replacements are more complex compared to Android units because Apple smartphones tend to have enclosed and very exclusive structure. Repairing them requires expertise or extensive experience, so make sure to send your unit to a team of highly skilled technicians.

Look through online reviews or testimonials. Check what other customers are saying. You may also call the company and speak with the technicians before deciding further.
