Get matched with top phone repair technicians in Tallulah, LA

Most smartphone repair specialists can replace your phone screen in 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the model. The repair could take longer if components under the screen are also damaged and need to be replaced. If you attempt to do the work yourself using a phone screen repair kit, set aside one to two hours to learn the correct steps and implement them carefully.

It’s usually more affordable to repair your smartphone than replace it, with repairs averaging around $150 and a full replacement averaging over $800. There are exceptions to this, as severe water damage might be prohibitively expensive, depending on the replacement cost of your phone. For less severe damage, like a broken charging or headphone port, buttons or rockers that don’t work, or a broken screen, you’ll likely pay far less for a smartphone repair, making it the better option.

Several apps are available for the iPhone that claim to measure the humidity in your home. However, to get the most accurate results, you'll most likely need a separate piece of equipment with a built-in hygrometer to use your iPhone to check room humidity. For example, the HomePod smart speaker has a humidity sensor, so you can use it to track humidity levels with your iPhone.

It is possible to fix a broken phone screen yourself using a phone repair kit, but we don’t recommend it. Replacing your screen isn’t as simple as taking the old one off and putting the new one on, and DIYers can mess up many steps. Those include opening the phone without damaging internal components, removing internal pieces without breaking them, and calibrating the screen after replacement. Any mistakes could lead to problems with functionality and might lead to your phone failing to work. It’s best to hire a phone repair technician who can fix your phone screen efficiently.
