How cost scales across iPhone models
Instead of guessing at numbers that change with part supply, here's how the main cost driver — the screen itself — compares across iPhone generations:
| iPhone model group | Screen technology | Relative part cost |
|---|---|---|
| iPhone SE (2nd/3rd gen), iPhone 8 | LCD | Lowest |
| iPhone XR, iPhone 11 | LCD | Lower |
| iPhone X, XS, 11 Pro | OLED | Moderate |
| iPhone 12 – 15 series | OLED | Moderate to higher |
| Recent Pro and Pro Max models | Larger, advanced OLED | Highest |
What drives the price up or down
1. Your model
Newer and larger phones use bigger, more advanced screens. A Pro Max OLED panel costs more than an SE's LCD.
2. Screen grade
Most models can take more than one grade of replacement screen. A good technician explains the trade-offs in colour, brightness and price, and lets you choose.
3. Damage beyond the glass
A bent frame, cracked back glass, liquid damage or a swollen battery all add work. That's why a clear photo matters before you get a final number.
Don't forget the cost of your time
With a mobile technician there's no drive, no parking and no second trip to pick your phone up. Factor that in when you compare options — see walk-in shop vs mobile technician.
Check your coverage first
If your iPhone has AppleCare+, or your carrier or credit card includes device protection, check your coverage before paying out of pocket.

Frequently asked questions
Is a non-Apple screen OK for my iPhone?
A quality replacement screen works well for everyday use. Newer iPhones may show a notice in Settings that a non-genuine display is installed; it doesn't stop the phone working. Ask your technician to explain the options for your model.
Does cracked back glass cost extra?
Yes. Back glass is a separate repair from the front screen. Mention it when you ask for a quote so it covers everything.
Can I get a quote on WhatsApp?
Yes. WhatsApp your iPhone model and a photo of the damage to (365) 351-4247 for a free quote.
