Replacing a broken iPhone screen can be a costly affair, but the exact cost depends on several factors. Apple, the manufacturer of iPhones, offers set fees for screen replacement, which vary depending on the iPhone model and whether you have AppleCare coverage.
AppleCare Coverage
If you have AppleCare , a screen replacement will cost you just $29 per incident, up to two incidents per year. This is a significant saving compared to the out-of-warranty prices.
Out-of-Warranty Prices
If your iPhone is not covered by AppleCare , Apple charges the following prices for screen replacement:
iPhone SE (3rd gen): $129
iPhone 12 mini, 13 mini: $229
iPhone 12, 12 Pro, 13, 14: $279
iPhone 12 Pro Max, 13 Pro Max, 14 Plus, 14 Pro: $329
iPhone 14 Pro Max: $379
These prices are for the screen replacement only and do not include any additional repairs that may be necessary.
Alternatives to Apple’s Screen Replacement
While Apple’s screen replacement is a reliable option, it can be costly, especially for older iPhone models. There are alternative repair providers that offer screen replacement at lower prices, such as Batteries Plus, Best Buy, and uBreakiFix.
However, it’s important to note that using these alternative providers may void your iPhone’s warranty if it’s still covered by AppleCare .
