Frequently Asked Questions

OEM vs 3rd party repair?
OEM (Apple Authorized, Samsung Care): pricier, original parts, retains water resistance, no warranty void. 3rd party: 30-50% cheaper, often non-original screen/battery, may void warranty + lose water resistance.
Screen replacement worth it?
iPhone screen: $130-330 OEM. Phone < 3 yrs old + good battery: yes. Phone 4+ yrs + bad battery: no, replace whole device. Cracked screen alone in 1-2 yr phone: always repair.
Water damage?
Liquid damage = expensive (often $300+ even at OEM). Half-life of water-damaged phone short — corrosion continues. Often: time to replace device.
