There is not any faster method to your iPhone enjoyable to return to an finish than for it to fall out of a pocket and take a giant chunk of the grime sandwich when it hits the bottom. And whereas changing the show on an iPhone remains to be non-trivial, it is potential to do it with fundamental hand instruments.
However the identical cannot be stated of the glass on the opposite aspect.

Break the again glass and also you’re in a world of harm. You are both taking a look at dismantling the iPhone right down to its part elements so as to have the ability to exchange it, otherwise you want entry to a again glass laser removing machine.
Nope, I do not appear to have a kind of right here on the PC Doc HQ.
However with the introduction of the iPhone 15 Professional, Apple seems to have corrected this design flaw and made it simpler to exchange the again glass.

Apple has revamped the interior chassis structure, including a brand new structural body that enables the again glass to be simply changed.

You is likely to be questioning why Apple cannot merely put off the again glass altogether and exchange it with one thing that will not break, possibly that fancy grade 5 titanium it makes use of for the outer chassis of the iPhone 15 Professional.
The reason being easy: It must be glass to work with wi-fi charging, as wi-fi charging will not work by means of metallic.
I like this alteration, however it’s disappointing that it wasn’t added to the non-Professional fashions. If you need simple repairs that do not drive you to laser off the again glass to exchange it, it’s important to pay for the privilege.
