The iPhone 16 family is the newest we see on the bench — the 16 and 16 Plus, the more affordable 16e, and the 16 Pro and Pro Max. New phone or not, glass is still glass, and one unlucky drop onto tiles is all it takes. The repair itself is no trouble: these are beautifully built phones, and a careful screen replacement brings them back exactly as they were.
Signs your iPhone 16 screen needs attention
- Cracked or shattered glass — a corner chip or the full spider web
- Touch that misses taps or swipes, even where the glass looks fine
- Flickering, dark patches or coloured lines after a drop
- Face ID playing up after damage near the front camera
How we put it right
Every job starts with a free diagnosis. On the 16 series we also check the Camera Control area on the side — a knock hard enough to crack the screen can sometimes unsettle it too — and give you a clear, honest quote for your exact model before any work begins. Your Face ID hardware stays with the phone, transferred across with care, and we test touch, True Tone and brightness before it goes back in your pocket.
Because these models are so new, screen quality between suppliers varies more than on older iPhones — we only fit parts we'd put in our own phones, and we'll tell you plainly what we're fitting and why.
Still under Apple warranty?
Worth knowing: accidental damage isn't covered by the standard Apple warranty, so a cracked screen is usually out of pocket either way. If your phone is covered by AppleCare+ we'll say so and point you there honestly — and if not, we'll quote you a fair price and have it turned around quickly, usually the same day.
