My lock/power off button broke?

I've had my iphone SE for 1 1/2 years and I've never smashed it, mistreated it or had any problems/symptoms leading up to the breaking of my lock button, any ideas why this happened and roughly how much it will cost to repair without apple insurance?

How did Apple answer your question?

They haven't said anything yet

  • My power button broke on my Iphone? I changed my settings so that I have that little button on my screen that allows me to lock the screen but I still would like to get the actual key fixed. I have only had my phone since august. Will this repair cost money? Or is it covered under some sort of warranty?
  • My lock button on my iPhone broke? My lock button on my phone broke and I'm gunna get it fixed but i know there's a setting that can lock it wheere there's like a circle on your screen and you press it and go to devices and lock it or something. How do i turn that setting on?
  • My lock button broke on my iPhone 4S, what do I do? I called the apple store and my warranty for the phone was up, 88 days ago. I called Verizon thinking I had insurance on the phone and I don't, the phone is only a year and a couple months old. I can no longer lock my phone and if it dies of if I turn it off I will no longer be able to turn it back on. What can I do? It is a flaw on the phone so shouldn't they replace it?
  • My iPhone 5 lock button broke, will the apple store exchange it? I got my iPhone 5 back in November, so I'm still under the 1 year warranty. If I went to the apple store to try to exchange it, would it be for free? Thank you very much! This is my first iPhone, so I'm not really sure how their warranty works haha. If you look at my phone, it has no damages (dents, bents, etc) and it has not been jail-broken!
