The Cost of an iPhone Screen Repair in Toronto

Well, first, repairing an iPhone screen can be costly unless you have an AppleCare+ plan. You can use this to cover the screen repairs cost of your phone.

Simply make an appointment at an Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. Remember. an incident of accidental damage will cost you another $39 for the service fee. 

If you don’t have this plan, then you must pay the out-of-warranty costs. See the table below to find the estimated cost of repairing a screen based on your iPhone model:

Model	Estimated Screen Repair Cost
iPhone 13 Pro Max iPhone 12 Pro Max iPhone 11 Pro Max iPhone XS Max	$429
iPhone 13 Pro iPhone 12 Pro iPhone 11 Pro iPhone XS	$365
iPhone 13 iPhone 12 iPhone X	$365
iPhone 13 mini iPhone 12 mini	$309
iPhone 11 iPhone XR	$259
iPhone 8 Plus iPhone 7 Plus iPhone 6s Plus	$219
iPhone 7 iPhone 6s iPhone 6 Plus	$195
iPhone 6 iPhone SE (2nd generation) iPhone SE iPhone 5s	$179

Fast turnaround time. Ideally, iPhone repairs can take as fast as 30 minutes. To keep things more realistic to expectations, we chose shops that can do repairs within the day, although allowance is obviously made for cases where sourcing a replacement part or repair tool is necessary.

Warranty and quality of service.  The shortest warranty we can accept is 60 days for either parts, labor, or both. Our list includes shops that offer lifetime warranties as well.

Quality screen replacement part. To test quality, we looked for the following:

1. No bluish hue or yellowish tint on the new screen.
2. Does not register accidental touches.
3. Accurate screen brightness adjustment with ambient light sensor.
4. True tone display works as expected.
5. The proximity sensor doesn’t isn’t split in two.
6. The color of the bezel matches the color of the home button (on certain models).
7. Multi-touch is responsive and works on all areas.
8. Icons or images don’t leave a trail when swiped.

1. Mobile Klinik Professional Smartphone Repair

When it comes to the overall experience, we have to give the crown to Mobile Klinik. In our opinion, they’re a great benchmark when it comes to fast services and a range of solutions.

Let’s talk about speed first. Approximately, it will take about 15 to 30 minutes to repair your iPhone screen. But that’s not taking into account the actual wait times within a repair shop yet.

As the shop promises, they can repair all phone problems in as fast as an hour. While we did find a few discrepancies here and there, it’s only a couple of minutes so we weren’t too bothered by it.

Next, there are three different ways you can access their repair services: walk-in, mall-in, and on-site repair. You don’t need to book an appointment for a walk-in, which is a great plus for those struggling with their schedule.

Out of these three methods, on-site repairs are our favorite because they’ll come to you instead. Availability can be an issue sometimes so it isn’t exactly a service readily available at all times, however.

As per parts and warranty, the shop offers a lifetime warranty on parts and labor on some repairs. However, they don’t have an in-warranty repair for Apple which we’d love to see in the future.

Finally, requesting a quote for common damages like a cracked screen is free. On the flip side, the actual cost of the quote may actually change depending on which shop you go to.

The shop listed in this review is only one of the many other locations you can find in Toronto, by the way. They also have a branch in Yonge Eglinton Center, Dufferin Mall, and CF Eaton Center.

Customer Reviews

Highly recommended

I went there to fix my iPhone screen and not only they did a fantastic job, they did it in time and they were very friendly. I am very happy with the service and I would recommend the place anytime! – Aleksandra Panić

Fair pricing and friendly service

So happy with the service I received here and end result. The battery of my phone was completely fried and needed to be replaced. The device handover was very easy and drop-in style / first come first serve. The rep was able to fix my phone within 1-1.5 hours and everything is now working perfectly again. Very fair pricing, friendly customer service and quick turn around / resolution time. I will totally use their service again in the future and highly recommend them to everyone out there! – Mitchell L

Customer Reviews

“Had a lovely experience getting my left AirPod Pro repaired. They were very helpful, and gave me an approximate time estimate. When I phoned in a few days later to check the status, they were happy to look into the repair status for me, without making me feel uncomfortable. It turns out, they tested both the left and right AirPod, and the right one was also in poor shape and was to be delivered. Thank you so much! As another reviewer said, it is definitely much more peaceful than the chaos of a trip to the Apple Store itself, and personally I can say, more convenient than having to coordinate a mailed repair with Apple.” – Mackenzie Colman

“I am very pleased with my dealings with Carbon Computing. I don’t live in Toronto, but I feel I’ve had direct and personal service throughout. Highest praise for the team!” – L. A. Pai Gallery

“This is a business that operates on good principles. A couple of years ago I went in with a very old MacBook, and rather then sell me a new one they replaced some parts for very little money and I regained the use of that one. This week I purchased a near new laptop from them – I damaged it within 24 hours – and within half an hour of reporting the issue they had a brand new one in my hands at a very fair cost. All issues sorted with professionalism and respect – I heartily endorse Carbon Computing.” – Joshua Hendin

3. uBreakiFix

When it comes to availability, uBreakiFix is among our top choices. They also won our hearts in terms of repair options that clients can choose from.

Let’s dive into the quality of their repairs first which is the highlight of their services.

For iPhone screen replacement, the turnaround time can be as fast as 45 minutes. But in certain cases, it can take up to the next day to get it done.

Now, that seems like a lot of time but take note that it also depends on the model of your iPhone. The newer your model is, the faster they can get it done, because the parts are readily available.

Speaking of parts, the shop does carry genuine Apple parts so you won’t have to worry about bootleg components. Plus, all their repairs come with a 90-day warranty, which we’re okay with.

Another thing that we liked about this shop is that they have three major service options. You can do carry-in or curbside repair, mail-in, and home services.

But note that if you want them to come to you for repairs, you have to be patient. It takes about four hours before a technician can entertain your request for home services.

On the bright side, the shop has other locations in Toronto you can go to. You do have to set an appointment, however, so make sure your and their schedules are cleared in advance if you’re going to one of their shops .

Customer Reviews

Amazing work on repairs

I was helped by Eli to fix my iPhone screen and it was an amazing job. They are super polite and very clearly know what they are doing. Definitely would go back (god forbid) I break my phone again. – Dylan Webb

Informative and honest

Absolutely great service. honest and friendly. My iPhone 6s screen wasn’t coming on. Ricardo kindly did a diagnostic.   and replaced with a new screen. Very informative letting me know which screen to go with. Did not try to sell me something I did not need. You will not be disappointed. I will definitely come back to his store. – Peter Bonnici

4. Can Fix It

In the long list of repair shops we’ve visited, Can Fix It was the only that had a perfect 5-star rating on Google Reviews. And yes, we found a lot of things that explain these ratings – with a few small quibbles of course.

For starters, quality services and parts were the main things that got our attention. With over 10 years of experience, the shop has mastered repairs specifically for phones.

In fact, cracked screens are actually their specialty and they’ve worked with both the latest and older iPhone models. We’ve yet to hear any experience with working with the iPhone 13 line but that didn’t really turn us off.

One of the things we really appreciated is their large inventory of top-quality iPhone parts. Having a large inventory ensures that you can get faster repairs at a much cheaper rate.

Speaking of rates, we found that they charge a lot less than what Apple estimates you to spend. And when we surveyed their past customers, a couple of them emphasized the more competitive rates – sometimes $100 cheaper than others.

Backing these repairs is a 6-month warranty, which is one of the longest warranties offered on this list. Plus, we also like that you can ask for an estimate over the phone since it’s just much more convenient for us than typical request forms.

Our main complaint is really that they’re not open on weekends. That’s a bit odd for shops of this type, but it’s ultimately a small issue.

Customer Reviews

Fast and accommodating

Highly recommend this place! I took my broken iPhone screen in an hour and a half before closing and they were so kind and accommodating and were able to fix it the same day. Pricing and quality is great! – Naomi Leanage

Goes above and beyond

I can’t recommend this place enough. I had such a great experience with Jon- he was so caring and truly went above and beyond to help me. It is clear that he cares about his customers. If you need any tech assistance please give your business to CANFIXIT. Thanks for your help!! – Rihanna Griffith

5. iFix Mobile

iFix Mobile likes to keep things simple, and that’s one of the things we like about it. On top of that, they provide services at a cost much lower than other shops.

The shop promises to fix phones as fast a day, but as we found, we think they’re just trying to be humble. During our survey, we saw that they can fix phones in as fast as 20 minutes, which obviously thrilled us in the best way.

On top of that, they also carry genuine parts for Apple devices but at almost half the cost. 

For example, the screen replacement for an iPhone 11 Pro Max can easily start at $400. With them, it will only cost you $289 – that’s about 28% cheaper than average pricing.

However, if you have the iPhone 12 and 13 models, they may not be able to accommodate you yet. On the other hand, we do love that they can still repair super-old models like the iPhone 4.

Warranty is also their strongest strength as the coverage lasts for a lifetime. All the parts they use in repairs are covered so a client can sleep with peace of mind.

They don’t have a mail-in option but we think you’ll enjoy dropping your device in-person here. Everyone’s kind – in our opinion, at least – and diagnoses issues fast at no charge.

Customer Reviews

Excellent services at reasonable prices

This place is phenomenal. Excellent customer service, reasonable prices, very quick to respond and diagnose the issues I had, and then gave me very helpful advice on what my options were. I would highly recommend this place and I will be going back again in the future. – Spencer Vibert

Brings phones back to life

My iPhone 10XR was literally run over by a car — the screen was completely damaged and so was completely unusable. This place was able to replace the screen/front camera and fix whatever else was damaged – ultimately bringing my phone back to life – all for a very reasonable price. The only thing that couldn’t be saved was FaceID and the vibration/haptic feedback, both of which I can live without. Thank you!  – Lisa Wong
