Are those little repair shops just as good as an official Apple store?


They're good. And most of the time cheaper than the Apple store. The guys in there fix phones all day. I had to have a cracked screen replaced on a 3GS several years back and they fixed it in about 20 minutes while I waited. Around $60-80 IIRC. I probably could have done it myself with one of those kits from Amazon but I wanted it fixed that day and didn't mind paying a little more for someone who has probably done this hundreds or thousands of times to do it.

If you can work a screwdriver and have even a basic knowledge of electronics then it is fairly simple. I fixed a screen on another phone, one of a family member, who had cracked it. You just have to be careful prying the phone apart. Take it slow and easy and it pops off and you just put the new one in place and put it back together.

eta i used these guys in nashville and they're great.

like TU says, use someone who has done 100s of repairs and they won't scuff your phone replacing.

for the price of peace of mind it ain't worth the DIY to try doing it yourself
