The rear camera of the iPhone, even though it is one of the most important elements, usually goes unnoticed when it comes to protecting it properly. And despite its resistance, it can be broken. And, if this happens, we will have to go through the official Apple technical service to fix it. In this post we are going to see how much can we spend in the case of the iPhone 12, 13 and 14 (in all its models and sizes).
Apple’s official prices
It is important to note that, for this post, we are going to see the official technical service prices from Apple. Currently, on their official website they offer repairs for all iPhone 12, 13 and 14 models. And those prices are not an exact figure. But, depending on what has to be repaired, the figure can increase considerably.
Depending on the damage the camera has, having to change one of the broken glass is not the same as having to change the optics mechanism. When we go to an Apple Store or an authorized technical service, the final price will vary depending on the repair. However, these approximate prices can give us a very approximate idea of what could happen in the event that one (or several) lenses are damaged.
- iPhone 12mini: 199 euros
- iPhone 12: 199 euro
- iPhone 12 Pro: 229 euros
- iPhone 12 Pro Max: 229 euros
- iPhone 13mini: 199 euros
- iPhone 13: 199 euros
- iPhone 13 Pro: 229 euro
- iPhone 13 Pro Max: 229 euro
- iPhone 14: 199 euros
- iPhone 14Plus: 199 euros
- iPhone 14 Pro: 259 euros
- iPhone 14 Pro Max: 259 euros
These repair prices are what we would have to pay in the event that we do not have contracted Apple Care+ coverage. This service allows you to extend the warranty coverage by Apple, and as an addition, the repairs will have a much lower cost than what we would normally pay. That is why, on the same web page, the repair prices with this contracted insurance are the following:
- iPhone 12 mini: 0 euros
- iPhone 12: 0 euros
- iPhone 12 Pro: 0 euros
- iPhone 12 Pro Max: 0 euros
- iPhone 13 mini: 0 euros
- iPhone 13: 0 euros
- iPhone 13 Pro: 0 euros
- iPhone 13 Pro Max: 0 euros
- iPhone 14: 0 euros
- iPhone 14 Plus: 0 euros
- iPhone 14 Pro: 0 euros
- iPhone 14 Pro Max: 0 euros
It is also important to note that these prices are not final. Over time they can change. Also, even if we have contracted Apple Care+, depending on the damaged component of the battery, (and even if other components have been damaged or fail) we could end up paying for the repair, even if the price is lower. As we have said, these prices are indicative, and we will only know how much we have to pay when the device has been properly inspected. In the same way, remember that these prices are only for the official Apple Store service. Prices on SATs may vary.
It is very important to always go to the official Apple technical service or an authorized service. In this way we will make sure that the iPhone SE has been repaired with official parts and whose operation has been verified. Similarly, fixing an iPhone with components that are not official or verified by Apple results in the immediate loss of warranty coverage.
