Firstly, readers need to understand that the opportunity to replace genuine Apple components is very slim, even if you are willing to pay for standard parts. This is because Apple's warranty policy is different from other companies in that it does not provide repair services or sell its components outside, but only implements a 1-to-1 exchange policy or allows users to exchange devices for a fee if conditions are met.
In the case your iPhone 7 Plus screen is shattered from a fall, the 1-to-1 exchange policy only applies if you have purchased an additional 1-year warranty package. With this supplementary warranty package, you can be covered for two accidental incidents for your product, including the unfortunate scenario of a shattered screen. In that case, you just need to take the iPhone to Apple's authorized iPhone service centers for them to check if it's eligible for warranty. If so, the waiting time for a new replacement product will be around 7-10 days.
In case your iPhone 7 Plus doesn't meet the warranty requirements, you'll naturally be denied warranty and have to turn to repair shops for replacement. However, for a high-end phone like the iPhone 7 Plus, you need to go to reputable and truly trustworthy stores to get genuine screens (screens taken from other faulty iPhones).
Where to Replace iPhone 7 Plus Screen with Quality and Good Price
- If your iPhone 7 Plus is genuine and still under warranty, you should go to iPhone service centers, Apple Stores for the best support. But if the iPhone is out of warranty, you need other options. Currently, both Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City have many reputable stores to replace iPhone screens for users to choose from.
