Why the iPhone 4 Costs So Much More to fix

Have you recently dropped your beloved iPhone 4 only to pick it up and find that your screen is shattered? You are not alone, the institute of the iPhone 4 makes it 50% more breakable than its predecessor. You may have broken the screen on a previous model and had it repaired. We will discuss why the mend on this model is so much more expensive.

Since 2007, each model of the iPhone seemed to become more and more user kindly on the mend approach until the modern release of the iPhone 4. The screen on the iPhone 4 is unique in its institute and placement. The previous iPhone models were designed to have the screen come out of the casing with a easy suction device. The iPhone 3G and iPhone 3Gs also had the quality to remove the glass from the Lcd.

The major cost growth comes from the inability to isolate the glass from the Lcd screen. The iPhone 4 combines the screen and Lcd into one unit that is sealed at the factory. This is a major issue for repair, due to the fact that the parts required for the mend are much more expensive.

The second major cost growth is the labor that is required for each repair. The iPhone 4 screen requires that the mend technician remove all internal components from the expedient prior to screen removal. As discussed previously, this is far distinct from the user kindly suctionable institute on the iPhone 3G and 3Gs.

The end ensue of the new institute is a increased mend price on the buyer end. Apple has not yet begun to offer mend on this expedient in store due to the increased complexity of the device. This leaves one very unhappy iPhone user in the end.
