As announced last year (fave.co/31CAomt), Apple has launched (fave.co/38EzyZX) its official Self Service Repair Store (fave.co/3s1uR36) with an array of parts and tools to fix broken iPhone SE (third-gen), iPhone 12, and iPhone 13 models. The store offers more than 200 individual parts and tools, from security screws for $0.10 apiece to Pro Max displays for more than $300.
The Self Service Repair program doesn't appear to offer significant savings for the most common iPhone repair-a cracked screen. For example, Apple charges $269.95 for an iPhone 13 Display Bundle, which includes the display, screw kit, adhesive, and two security screws, with a credit of $33.60 for returning the broken display after fixing it, for a final cost of $236.35. The same repair (fave.co/3s2JEDP) would cost $279 if you brought it to an Apple Store, a savings of $42.65.
