Don't you have warranty service.

Pay the price. It's gonna be alright.

You live in New York?

Shouldn't be hard to find someone doing repair

That’s why stuck with my iPhone 7. fukk the 8 and the x is too small/wrong aspect ratio.

You don’t have insurance? It’s like $175

You gotta make sure they using official parts tho. A lot of repair spots be using aftermarket screens and shyt. Phone won’t function like it did if they put a fake screen or Touch ID button on your phone

We'll pay the price and get it done right.

Only reason I would take it to a repair guy is because I don't want to refavorite all ofy songs

If you replace the screen, you just use the same Home Button from the cracked one. As far as the aftermarket screens, no noticeable difference unless the person repairing the screen doesn't know WTF they're doing and/or doesn't have the right tools to disassemble the screen from the base.

This only applies to the iPhones from 5 series to 7 series.

8's & 10's you'd be better off using Apple Care for the 2 accidental repairs or you'll end-up buying a new phone off Craigslist/Ebay/Amazon/etc.​

Dropped my X on some drunk shyt in new Orleans last month... Cracked the back... Did some research and they're talking bout Apple is charging $550 to repair it :damn:

Have the carrier insurance on it but the deductible is like $225... I'm standing pat until it's time to trade this hoe in​

Nah. I got finessed before and got a aftermarket screen. The picture quality was noticeably ass, the screen was a little thicker and force touch turned janky.

If you paid for it with your credit card, you may be able to file a claim and they'll pay for the repair.
