Tips on iPhone Glass Repair Service in Scottsdale

The iPhone is mostly made of glass and metal, with most parts consisting of glass. This means that when you drop it on  the hand concrete, you will end up shattering its screen. If you have broken the screen of your iPhone, you will need to consider searching for help from an iPhone glass repair service in Scottsdale.
 
Apple Repair

One of the options that you can consider is to send the phone to  Apple. You should start by booking an appointment at any of the Apple store in their authorized repair locations. When you visit any of the store, they will try to repair the glass to your iPhone. However, if the problem is complex they will send it to the Apple Repair Center. You will have to wait for the repair to be done, mostly within a period of 3 to 5 days.

It is also worth noting that Apple doesn’t cover accidental damage in their one year warranty. This is unless you have the AppleCare+ which usually cover accidental damage but you will have to pay for a service fee. To replace the screen of a broken iPhone s6, Apple usually charges an amount of $129 exclusive of tax  and an amount of $149 including tax for the repair of an iPhone 6S Plus screen. If you aren’t close to the apple store, a good option would be to mail the phone to them.

If you have bought Apple care for a fee of $99 for 2 years for the device, all you will need to pay for the screen repair is $99 either for the 6S or even the 6S plus. However, it is worth noting that Apple care covers a maximum of two accidental damages. If the phone is still under warranty and the crack is small (size of a hairline), Apple may repair it for free as this can be indicative of a glass that is defective.

However, one of the greatest cons of the Apple repair is that you may not be anywhere close to an Apple store and it can take 3 to 5 days before the phone can be repaired. You wouldn’t like to go for close to a week without your iPhone.

If you want your iPhone to be repaired first, there are many third party  shops that will do it . This can particularly be an important choice if you are already out of warranty as the repair from Apple is likely to cost you a good amount of money. However, you will also  need to make a good choice of an iPhone glass repairs service in Scottsdale as not all services are equal.

How to Save Your iPhone from Water Damage

One of the common mishaps that are likely to occur with your phone is falling into water. When this happens, you should not worry as a duck into water is not necessarily a death sentence. Here are a few strategies that you can use to deal with water damage before you take your phone to an iPhone water damage repair specialist in Scottsdale.



Like you would guess, you will need to start by getting the phone out of water as fast as possible. In case the phone is already plugged in, you should start by unplugging it. You should avoid turning it on in a bid to check for the damage as this can result in a short circuit. If your wet iPhone is already in a case, you should remove it from there. You should also remove the SIM card. It is also a good idea to remove the battery but you should only do it only if you are ready to void the warranty. With these steps, it will be possible to minimize the number of nooks & crannies that can cause water to linger and ensure that no damage is caused to the components of the iPhone.

You should also wipe out any exterior and excess liquid off in all the parts that you can reach. Ensure that the iPhone is turned down in an upside position and shake it gently to ensure that the sockets and ports are cleared.

You will not want a situation where you activate the circuit that is inside the iPhone as this can cause a short circuit and this is what results in the long-term damage. Incased you have switched off the iPhone, you can leave it off. Do not try to put power on in a bid to find out whether it is still working. It can end up working but again stop working forever simply because you did this.

In case the iPhone was switched or even was in a sleep mode, the scenario will be worse. This is due to the fact that there will be two options that are not so good. You can choose to power it down but again cause the operating system and the screen to wake up in a brief manner before it switches off. You can also choose to leave your phone in the sleep mode, hoping that there will be no notifications. After this, you will need to get in touch with  an iPhone water damage repair Scottsdale. If you are searching for one, you should contact Arizona iPad Repair.
