Back Glass Repair — questions
Do I need a whole new housing for a cracked iPhone back?
No — on iPhone 8 through 16 the back glass is fused but we remove just the broken glass and fit a new rear panel, so you keep your frame, buttons, and serial-locked parts.
Will wireless or MagSafe charging still work afterward?
Yes — the charging coil and MagSafe magnets sit inside the frame, not on the glass, so we reseal the new back and your wireless charging works as before.
Is a cracked iPhone 14, 15, or 16 back easier to fix?
Yes — from the iPhone 14 on, Apple redesigned the chassis so the rear glass is no longer one fused structural piece, which makes the back-glass replacement faster and lower-risk than on the iPhone 8 through 13.
Can you replace the back glass on a Samsung Galaxy?
Yes — on the Galaxy S21, S22, and S23 the curved rear panel is Gorilla Glass Victus glued directly over the wireless-charging coil, with no separate frame seam like Apple uses. We apply controlled heat to lift the old glass cleanly, then bond and reseal a matched replacement so the wireless charging and the phone’s water resistance both hold.
Can you fix a cracked Google Pixel back or camera bar?
Yes — the Pixel 6, 7, and 8 have a glued glass rear panel plus the raised horizontal camera-bar visor, and a drop usually cracks the visor glass over the lenses first. We heat and lift the bonded rear glass, replace the panel and the camera-bar glass where it is a separate piece, and reseal it so the rear cameras and wireless charging keep working.
How is back glass repair different on an iPhone 16 Pro Max?
The 16 Pro Max pairs its large glass back with a titanium frame and Apple's newer internally-releasable adhesive, and since the iPhone 14 generation the rear glass is no longer a fused structural part of the chassis — so we can remove the broken panel and bond a matched replacement without disturbing the frame, cameras, or MagSafe array. It is a larger panel than the standard 16, so the two are quoted as different parts.
