    iPhone 14 Pro Iphone 14 Pro/ Pro Max Back Replacement

    Broke iPhone X Back Glass... Should I Replace for Water Resistance?

    After almost two years, I finally damaged by iPhone X. Ironically after dropping it many times, this time it literally fell from a couple inches while I was underneath my car. The back glass doesn't look too bad... from a purely cosmetic standpoint it's probably not worth replacing. However...

    iPhone 8/Plus Back Glass Replacement

    i have an 8+ so the AppleCare+ is quickly running out. The back glass somehow got a crack despite living in an Otterbox Symphony case from day 1. Question, is this a replacement done in store and how long does it take? I’m close to an Apple store tomorrow on business. I don’t want to waste my...
