How much does smartphone repair cost?

• <div><p>Smartphone repairs average around <b>$150</b> but can range from <b>$50 up to $500 </b>or more, depending on the extent of the damage and what’s wrong with your phone. To repair a cracked screen, you can expect to pay between <b>$100 and $350</b>, while a charging port replacement can cost between <b>$20 and $100</b> for materials and labor.

Q: Can I replace my own phone screen?

• <div><p>You can purchase a DIY phone screen replacement kit, but it&rsquo;s usually a better idea to have a professional technician address the problem. Many DIYers who attempt a screen replacement end up with poor screen functionality afterward, including ghost touches and partial screen functionality. Replacing a phone screen is a complicated process that demands experience, so it&rsquo;s a good idea to defer to a professional from the start. Any mistakes you make while replacing your screen could lead to you having to pay a professional to step in anyway, increasing your total repair costs.</p></div>

Q: How long does a phone screen repair take?

• <div><p>Most smartphone repair specialists can replace your phone screen in <b>30 to 45 minutes</b>, 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.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to repair or replace a smartphone?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s usually more affordable to repair your smartphone than replace it, with repairs averaging around <b>$150</b> and a full replacement averaging over <b>$800</b>. 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&rsquo;t work, or a broken screen, you&rsquo;ll likely pay far less for a smartphone repair, making it the better option.</p></div>

Q: Can I fix a broken phone screen myself?

• <div><p>It is possible to fix a broken phone screen yourself using a phone repair kit, but we don&rsquo;t recommend it. Replacing your screen isn&rsquo;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&rsquo;s best to hire a phone repair technician who can fix your phone screen efficiently.</p></div>
