Average iPhone 6S screen repair cost and where to go for fixing options
How expensive is it to fix a broken iPhone 6S screen? The following are some points that you must know about iPhone 6S screen repair:
Apple Repair Options
Apple maintains authorized service providers and retails outlets where customers can have the screens on their iPhone 6S repaired. An out-of-warranty iPhone 6S screen replacement will cost you $129 plus tax normally. For the bigger iPhone 6S Plus, it’s $149 plus tax.
People who are unable to visit an Apple Store in person can mail-in their device for repair. This bonus is a $6.95 value, though Apple does charge to ship many products from its online store.
Third-Party Repair Shops
Most of the local repair shops carry out iPhone screen replacements that are cheaper compared to Apple. Material and execution levels may differ though. Choose a third party repair option and do remember to research reviews.
DIY Screen Replacement
In layman’s terms: If you’re a little handy, kits can be found online for about $30 to maybe up to $50. However, this takes some talent and voids the warranty but could be a money saver. Something to keep in mind before you attempt this is how comfortable you are with electronics repair.
To decide which option to go for, look up the various YouTube videos on repair and then make sure you backup your data from iPhone before repairs. And if you bought AppleCare+, see what sort of screen damage is covered under the protection plan.
Besides the opposite spectrum of repair costs, also keep in mind how much an iPhone (ad)(ad) is worth when it works and compare that to whether or not you might just upgrade a broken one verses sinking money into repairs for an older model.
