Screen, battery, charging, and water-damage repair for every iPhone model. From the iPhone 6 to the latest Pro Max we replace OLED and LCD displays, swap aging batteries, rebuild charging ports, and recover liquid-damaged units. Which repair you need depends on the generation: the iPhone SE, 8, XR, and 11 use cheaper LCD screens while the X and every model from the 12 up use OLED, and the charge port switched from Lightning (through the iPhone 14) to USB-C on the 15 and 16.

iPhone Repair — questions

What parts do you use for iPhone screens?

We offer genuine and high-quality OEM-grade options depending on the model and your budget, and we explain the differences and price before starting.

Will a screen replacement affect Face ID or True Tone?

We transfer the original components where possible so Face ID and True Tone keep working on most models.

Which iPhones are the cheapest to repair?

Screen cost tracks the panel type: the LCD models — SE, 8, XR, and 11 — are the most affordable to fix, while OLED models (the X and the 12 and newer) cost more. Battery and charging repairs are more consistent across the range. You get an exact in-store quote for your model first.

Does my iPhone charge over Lightning or USB-C?

Every iPhone from the 5 through the 14 uses a Lightning port; the 15 and 16 moved to USB-C. They are different parts, so for a charging repair we confirm which connector your model uses before fitting the replacement.

Is a Pro iPhone screen different from a standard one?

Yes — it matters for the repair. iPhone Pro and Pro Max models (13 Pro onward) use LTPO OLED panels with 120Hz ProMotion and an always-on display, while the standard and Plus models run a 60Hz OLED. They are not interchangeable parts, so we match the exact panel to your model so ProMotion, True Tone, and Face ID all keep working.

Is replacing the battery on a newer iPhone different?

Yes — on the iPhone 16 Apple moved to a battery in a metal shell held by adhesive that releases with a low electrical current instead of the old stretch pull-tabs, which makes the swap cleaner and lower-risk than on earlier models. We fit a genuine-grade cell so the battery-health percentage and cycle count keep reporting accurately in Settings afterward.

Why might my iPhone show an "Unknown Part" or non-genuine warning after a screen or battery repair?

Apple pairs key parts — the screen, battery, and camera — to each iPhone by serial number, so a replacement that is not paired to your specific phone can trigger a notice in Settings, and on some models the battery-health screen may show "Unknown Part" or stop reporting the exact percentage. Your phone still works normally — the screen, Face ID, and charging all function. Where your model allows it we calibrate the part so the warning clears; on the models where Apple restricts that to genuine paired parts we tell you up front exactly which feature the notice affects so there are no surprises.

My iPhone got wet — what should I do, and can it be saved?

Act fast, and do not charge it or keep pressing the power button — sending current through a wet board is what turns a recoverable phone into a dead one. If it is still on, turn it off, leave it powered down, and bring it in; the "bag of rice" trick does nothing about the corrosion already starting inside. iPhones are water-resistant when new, but that seal weakens with age and after any screen work, so liquid — especially salt water, pool water, or a sugary drink — gets in and begins corroding the logic board within hours. On the bench we open it, disconnect the battery, and ultrasonically clean the corrosion off the board before it eats through the traces. Plenty of wet iPhones come back fully working; the honest part is we cannot promise that before opening it, because how far the corrosion spread decides whether it needs just a clean, a single part like the charging port or screen, or board-level work. The sooner it is opened and cleaned the better the odds — a phone brought in the same day recovers far more often than one that sat in a drawer for a week.

How long does an iPhone repair take — can it be same-day?

Most common iPhone jobs are same-day, often while you wait: a screen or battery swap on models like the SE, XR, 11, 12, or 13 usually takes about 30 to 60 minutes, because the Face ID and True Tone components transfer straight off your old screen so nothing has to be re-paired. A charging-port rebuild runs a little longer since the port is seated deep in the frame. The repairs that need more time are water damage — the board has to be opened, cleaned, and then watched to confirm it holds — and any job on a newer model where a genuine part has to be calibrated to your phone by serial number so the "Unknown Part" notice clears. We give you the realistic turnaround for your exact model and fault before we start, and if a specific part has to be ordered we tell you up front instead of holding your phone.

iPhone repair details for Manchester & Greater Hartford

The right iPhone repair depends on the symptom, so we diagnose before quoting. A cracked, black, or flickering display — or a thin green or pink line and dead-touch patches that appear after a drop — is the OLED or its digitizer failing, not an iOS bug a reset will fix, and it is a screen replacement where we transfer your original Face ID and True Tone parts so both keep working. If Settings shows a “Battery Health → Service” message, the phone dies by mid-afternoon, or it shuts off in the cold, the lithium cell has degraded and needs a new battery rather than a software tweak. When it only charges at a certain angle, needs the cable wiggled, or charges wirelessly but not wired, that is almost always a worn or lint-packed charging port — Lightning through the iPhone 14, USB-C on the 15 and 16 — not the battery. Face ID that stops working or shows “Face ID is not available” after front-glass damage is usually the fragile TrueDepth dot-projector flex, which we assess during the repair. If your iPhone got wet, do not charge it — sending current through a wet board is what turns a recoverable phone into a dead one; power it off and bring it in for liquid-damage cleaning the same day. And a shattered rear panel is its own job: on the iPhone 8 through 14 the back glass is fused to the frame and laser-separated, so it is repaired independently of the screen. Bring your iPhone to our Manchester shop — most diagnostics are done while you wait.
