Cracked Phone Screen? Repair or Replace — How to Decide

Cracked smartphone screen

A cracked phone screen is the most common repair we see, and in most cases it is far cheaper to fix than to replace the phone. A new display costs a fraction of a new handset, keeps all your photos and apps exactly where they were and takes about 45 minutes.

When a screen repair makes sense

  • The phone is less than four years old and still gets software updates
  • Only the glass or display is damaged — the phone still turns on
  • The repair costs less than half the value of the phone

When to think about replacing it

If the frame is bent, the battery is swollen or the phone is several generations old, a trade-in may give you better value. Our technicians will tell you honestly which option is cheaper.

Don’t wait too long
