iPhone 4s damaged mainboard - better options than Apple for repairs? (€211)

blatantrereg · 2013-07-10 22:55:19

iPhone 4s broken from being dropped into water. Mainboard broken according to gadget shop. Apple will fix for €211. Are there any better (cheaper but reliable) options available? Thanks

there's no better, they'll swap out the phone for a like new one..the €211 is more or less getting you a new phone.

Aye, that seems to be the case with Apple repairs, OP. You may even be getting an entirely new phone for the €211.

Fixed by I-electron in Cork for €67, including replacing broken component (had a dodgy power button). Second time using their services. Would recommend.
