Replacement iPhone at Apple Store?
If my iPhone 5s is broken and I take it to the Apple Store to get it looked at would they replace it with the same model or could I get the 6? I have apple care by the way. Would they offer me the option to upgrade or would I have to bring that up myself? Lastly- if I can upgrade how much would it cost? Would it be the price of a new iPhone 6 or would it be cheaper since I would be upgrading
You could probably trade in the 5S and upgrade but obviously if its damaged the value on trade in goes way down. For contract deals you have to check with your carrier since they do those deals, Apple isn't a carrier, they sell them but the contract deals are set by carriers.
I've had to bring two iPhones to the Apple Store to be repaired. In one case when they knew they could fix my phone (iPhone 5S) they gave me a loaner phone that was an older model (iPhone 4) for 2 weeks to use until my phone was fixed and ready to be picked up. When I had an old iPhone 4 that broke they gave me another iPhone 4.
They won't upgrade you to a newer phone in the case of repairs. Your warranty allows you to get a replacement phone of the same model.
If you bought your phone from an Apple Store it can't hurt to, ask them if you can pay to upgrade. But if you got your phone as part of a contract from your carrier there's no way for apple to upgrade you. Any upgrades are up to your carrier based on the terms of your contract
- Where is the best place to buy an iPhone 4s: the Verizon store or the Apple store? I don't have an upgrade until January but am looking to buy an iPhone soon. I've been looking at the various sites and saw that there was a huge price difference between the Apple and Verizon stores. A rep at the Verizon store told me I wouldn't even have to change my existing plan, but just pay the $449 for the phone. Why would I buy an iPhone 4s from Verizon for $449.99 when they're sold on the Apple website for $99?
- Verizon store or apple store for a new iphone 5? Verizon said I can get an Iphone 5 for "Using my upgrade + $199).Is it true that I can get an iphone 5 at the apple store for $199? If true, Why would I use an upgrade at verizon and pay the same amount for the phone?
- Should I buy my iPhone at the Apple Store or the Verizon store? The plans and the phones themselves cost the exact same; the difference is the care plan. I just can't decide which one is best for me and I definitely want some sort of plan. Apple care is an upfront cost, but it is cheaper. I don't know how long either last, or which one takes care of the customers the best. Any opinions?
- Replacement Pending iPhone. Replacement phone or fix? My iphone is being repaired and on the apple service page it says 'iPhone replacement pending' and below it says repair complete… I was wondering if this meant that my phone has been repaired or if Apple are sending a replacement iphone different than the original.
