New chassis makes rear glass repair much cheaper on iPhone 15 Pro [Max]

2023-09-18 14:55:05

One of the few new features introduced by the iPhones 14/14 Plus last year was a redesigned structure that allowed change the rear glass of both models much more easily, which also reduced costs with this type of repair. This year, Apple brought this design to its Pro smartphones, which also came with good news for consumers.

As noted by 3D artist Ian Zelbo, the price to replace the iPhone 15 Pro’s back glass has dropped to US$170while that of the iPhone 15 Pro Max went to US$200. For comparison, the same repair cost US$500 and US$560, respectively, for the iPhones 14 Pro/14 Pro Max.

Due to a new internal structure, the iPhone 15 Pro now costs just $170 to replace the back glass, compared to $500 for the 14 Pro

No Brazil, prices have also been updated. If previously owners of iPhones 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max had to shell out a lot of money R$4.400 e R$4.900respectively, now “only” you need to pay R$1.340 to change the rear glass of the iPhone 15 Pro and R$1.580 that of the iPhone 15 Pro Max — still a high price, but much more reasonable.

These values, of course, also apply to the iPhones 15/15 Plus and the iPhones 14/14 Plus. All rates can be checked on this Apple support pagewhere you can get a repair estimate for each iPhone model.

This significant reduction in the cost of this type of repair can be explained by the fact that, now, it is no longer necessary to replace the entire structure of iPhones to just change the rear glass. As demonstrated by Apple during last week’s keynote, the part is now fitted independently to the rest of the chassis.

On the other hand, if you have an Apple Watch Series 4 or newer, be aware that it has become more expensive to replace your watch’s battery, as we mentioned in this article.
