How much does iphone back glass repair cost

Apple released its newer models of iPhone with a very stylish back glass. Ever since unleashing iPhone 8, the back cover has been replaced by a shiny and sleek back glass. Whilst being smart, the new iPhone back glass also allows for wireless charging.

However, the new, more luxurious glass finish affords less grip and therefore more drops occur. Whilst a broken iPhone screen was the primary concern following a drop or fumble, the back glass is now equally prone to cracking.

Is it really necessary to replace iPhone back glass?

This really depends on the level of damage. While smashed iPhone back glass doesn’t look aesthetically pleasing, the damage could purely be cosmetic. Therefore a good case could hide the fact that your iPhone back glass is broken.

However, more substantial cracks to the glass open up a wide range of new issues.

The possibility of cutting your fingers is one such potential problem. What’s more, the glass is no longer keeping dust, rain and other liquids out. As a result, these substances can enter the iPhone and cause damage over time to the internal components.

Where can I get iPhone back glass replaced?

AppleCare should always be the first port of call if your iPhone is under warranty. Some AppleCare plans don’t cover accidental damage, but AppleCare+ does. The cost of getting the back glass replaced is significantly reduced if you are covered.

Otherwise, an iPhone repair shop, such as We Solve All, will happily replace your iPhone back glass at prices significantly lower than the Apple store.

There are many benefits of a repair shop repairing your iPhone back glass. These include:

• Quality workmanship by a repair professional.
• Up to 12-months warranty.
• The back glass repair being done on the same day the iPhone is brought in.

The second option is tempered back glass. Tempered glass is a very popular option to protect the iPhone screen. However, tempered rear glass can also prevent more damage to the back of the phone.
