iPhone 4 Screen cracked in my pocket

Sponsored Links
Just bought an iphone 4 last month, and in a week, took it fell down (40 cm of soil, slip pocket shorts). Apple does not cover that kind of damage as security (something in all brands, with iphone took 10 years and I have never had any problems with the screens) and the only solution is that it makes the repair out of warranty, and I had to shell out another 250 $. please tell me how to go about this problem.

Re: iPhone 4 Screen cracked in my pocket

There are a number of iPhone repairers also large number of them can be found online too, but still it does not seem to repair Apple's new phone, so I would try to call them to ask, if you say no or give you a budget close to 200 bucks, go with Apple that are always officers. It's a bitch, yes, but boy, if you do your you risk losing your phone and charge you 600 (value of free iphone) instead of 200.

Hello friend. You have no other BEST CHOICE to pay the 200 bucks. But it is so and no other unless you want to do what you have commented as well. I would advice you to get this problem resolved. If you want to save some money then you can try to purchase a an apple iphone 4 screen and then simply get it replaced by itself.

Re: iPhone 4 Screen cracked in my pocket

iphone4 screen probably is the most expensive component of the phone.
3G iphone with the typesetter and glass $ 199, only the part. well with the 3G and earlier, you could buy the display one hand, second glass, and moreover the tactile component (digitizer, not as they say in Spanish), 4 iphone apparently come from three components into one goal to prevent dust under the screen.

Is broken does not mean that is the most expensive, because the glass and the screen are the same component. If you drop anything with a screen on the ground is very likely to break that does not mean it is wrong simply is not designed to withstand falls, although you can get lucky and not break.
