What will Apple do with a smashed iPhone 5?
I bought my iPhone from Apple a few months ago and now I have dropped it and the glass over the screen has smashed it is still under warranty what can they do?
I was in the apple store the other day & they replaced this ladys for free. If not they may order you a new phone, a new screen or you can find someone locally on craigs list or something that can replace the screen for you. Or look it up on youtube if you want to do it yourself. I would call apple first and ask them what they are willing to do before you make a trip out to the apple store.
They'll give you a refurbished one. They'll fix it and call it refurbished. Will more than likely be an insurance replacement for someone else now.
For an out of warrenty fee (150-200 pounds)
they will replace it with a new (as-new/refurbished) one
Otherwise, there are many (reputable) repair shops that will replace the glass and screen for less.
Of course, it may be covered by Home insurance all risks cover?
(but may hit your no claims fee)
The US has a cheap screen replacement service (once out of apple care)

Maybe Apple UK has it now too?
- Front of my iphone has been smashed, can it be fixed? I smashed the front of my iPhone a couple of days go (by accident!) and i was wondering, would i be able to get it fixed or even get a new screen?
- Back of my iphone is smashed, is it easy to replace the back myself? So. I'm in idiot and dropped my Iphone on hard flooring in my bathroom. The front is fine, luckily. Otherwise I would of flipped out. I need to know if it is easy to replace the back, i've heard of multi color backings as well. Anyone know if this is easy and if there's a place online I can buy a new back?
- SMASHED THE BACK OF MY IPHONE? I've smashed the back of my iphone (i didn't drop it) and i don't know what to do. What will happen if i just left it? Will orange replace it if i don't have insurance?
- Smashed my iphone and it went crazy? Ok so i threw my iphone 4s on the ground and it shattered on the front and back but it still turns on, but both cameras won't work and when i try to take a picture its just black, also the sound won't work and whenever i use it the front top right hand corner goes really hot, aswell as the whole steel edge thing and the back top middle if that makes sense. Does anyone know what's going on maybe? Please answer!
