Getting Repairs at Random Shops
Nothing can ruin your day quite like a broken smartphone screen — especially if your device is newer. But while you may just want to get your device repaired as quickly as possible by a repair shop, you should be cautious about trusting just any independent repair location.
There’s no guarantee that independent repair shops will use quality components in the repairs. What’s more, some repairs can result in a voided warranty or certain features being disabled. While first-party Apple repairs aren’t cheap, we always recommend going to an Apple Authorized Service location.
