One of the main novelties of the iPhone 12 smartphones is the OLED Super Retina XDR screen with Ceramic Shield, reinforced with ceramic crystals. According to Apple, this coating is the best on the market, and with it the chances of not breaking a smartphone in the event of a fall are four times higher than those of an iPhone 11. We await the results of the independent drop tests to objectively evaluate the durability of the new iPhones. Meanwhile, Apple has updated the “iPhone Repair and Maintenance” page on its website, and we can find out how much it will cost to repair it at the official SC in one case or another.
While there are official prices for the repair of the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro, which will begin to be sold earlier, in Ukraine, remember, pre-orders will start on October 23 and the first buyers will receive smartphones on October 30. That is, one week after the official start of global sales.
So, in the absence of an AppleCare + extended warranty, the iPhone 12 Pro screen replacement in the official service will cost $ 279. This price has not changed since the iPhone X of 2017, which is good news. The cost to replace the base iPhone 12, which features a similar 6.1-inch OLED Super Retina XDR display, is the same ($ 279). And that’s already $ 80 more than last year’s iPhone 11, which uses an IPS screen. For the AppleCare + Extended Warranty, the cost to replace the screen is $ 29 above
All other non-warranty repair cases, including external mechanical damage (rear glass replacement) or damage caused by liquid ingress into the case, for the iPhone 12 Pro cost the same $ 549, and for iPhone 12, compared to iPhone 11, the procedure has increased by $ 50, to $ 449. In the case of an AppleCare + warranty extended for other damages, Apple will charge the same fee of $ 99.
