Is it worth repairing a cracked phone screen?

Repairing a cracked phone screen can be worth it if it's cheaper than buying a new phone, and if your phone is still in good condition: 

• Cost

  Repairing a cracked screen is usually cheaper than buying a new phone. The cost to repair a cracked screen can range from $80 to $600, depending on the extent of the damage. 

• Phone condition

  If your phone is still in good condition, repairing the screen can be a better investment than buying a new phone. 

• Warranty

  If your phone is under warranty, you may be able to get a free or discounted repair from the manufacturer. For example, AppleCare+ allows for two accidental damage replacements in a 12-month period for $29. 

• Sustainability

  Repairing your phone is a more sustainable choice than buying a new one, as it helps reduce electronic waste. 

• Retaining value

  Repairing your phone can help retain its value, making it easier to sell or trade-in for future upgrades. 

• Keeping files intact

  Repairing your phone allows you to keep your files intact, which can be difficult if you try to transfer them from a broken device.
