My 5s is turning itself on and off and either showing the Apple logo or a blue screen.

I'm told that it will need to go to the Apple Store for repairs.

Any idea what this will cost?

TIA

They require a sacrifice in the form of penis.

Since it's an older phone you could likely get another 5s for fairly cheap.

Do you still have Applecare?

Hey motherfricker!! How hard would it be to not post dumbshit?

How would they know how much to tell me without the phone being there?

I'm asking because maybe someone has brought a phone there before from here.

I would think it really depends on what is wrong with the phone. And they won't know that until they look at it.



Also...if you have Applecare on the phone(you would know...you would have paid an addition $100-120 on top of cost of phone when you got it) the Applecare would likely cover the costs of the repairs

If you bought it new 10 months ago it'll still be under warranty so it may not cost anything.

Take you phone to batteries plus first and get an estimate. They are likely to be a bit cheaper than an Apple store.

If you bought it less than a year ago new, then Apple still covers it.

if you've only had it for 10 months it should still be under warranty for the issues you are describing.

So it's more likely that someone on TD has experienced this already and can answer your question better than a Genius at the Apple Store

Did you buy it new? Should be under warranty still.

1. Go HERE and type in your serial number

2. If it is under warranty, then you can swap it out. Back it up first before bringing it in

3. If it is NOT under warranty, they typically charge $145 for a new out of date phone (drowned my 5 and that's what the charge was for a new 5).

4. You're welcome
