How much is it to repair a cracked iPhone screen in Australia?
The price depends on your iPhone model, the type of damage and whether you choose Apple or a third-party repair provider.

This guide explains what affects iPhone screen replacement costs, how to compare repair options and what to check before handing over your phone.
Tip: A cracked screen may not be the only problem. If your iPhone also has touch issues, display lines or other damage, ask the repairer whether these could affect the final price.
How much does iPhone screen repair cost in Australia?
The cost of an iPhone screen replacement varies by model and repair provider. Apple and independent repairers may charge different prices, and the final cost can depend on the type of damage and parts required.
Before booking a repair, check the price for your exact model:
- iPhone XS and iPhone XR: Ask for a quote specific to your model and screen damage.
- iPhone 11 series: Check whether the quote covers your exact iPhone 11 model.
- iPhone 12 series: Compare quotes for the standard, mini, Pro or Pro Max model, as repair costs may differ.
- Other iPhone models: Confirm the model and repair type before comparing prices.
For current Apple repair options and estimates, visit Apple’s official iPhone Repair and Service page. You can also contact an independent repairer for a quote.
When comparing quotes, ask whether the price includes parts, labour, testing and any applicable warranty. Check whether the replacement screen is genuine Apple, compatible aftermarket or refurbished, and ask about any features that could be affected by the repair.
Should I use Apple or a third-party iPhone screen repairer?
You can compare Apple’s repair service with an independent repair provider. The best choice depends on the cost, the parts used and the repair service available for your model.
Apple or an Apple Authorised Service Provider
- Check Apple’s current repair estimate for your iPhone model.
- Ask whether the repair uses genuine Apple parts.
- Confirm the expected repair time and any applicable service warranty.
Independent repair provider
- Request a written quote that identifies the parts and labour included.
- Ask whether the replacement screen is genuine Apple or a compatible alternative.
- Check the repairer’s warranty and what happens if features such as touch response, brightness or other display functions do not work correctly after repair.
Before deciding, compare the total price and the terms of the repair rather than choosing on price alone.
