iPhone Back Glass Repair in Düsseldorf

How much work a broken iPhone back is depends on the generation. On the older models, the glass is firmly attached to the housing; on the newer ones, it is a removable part; and on the 17 Pro, only a glass window is left. We tell you which group your iPhone belongs to and what that means for the repair.

Which design your iPhone has

iPhone 8 to 13: glass fixed in the housing

On these generations and on the second- and third-generation iPhone SE, the back glass is firmly attached to the housing. It is not designed to be removed. Either it is separated from the frame, or all the components move into a new housing.

iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max: still the old design

The iPhone 14 got a new internal layout, but the Pro models of the same generation did not. On the 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max, the glass is fixed in the housing just like on their predecessors. That surprises many people, because the phones are the same age.

iPhone 14, 14 Plus, 15 and 16: removable back

Here Apple redesigned the inside. The back is a separate part and can be removed while the frame and components stay in place. This applies to the 15 and 16 series, including the Pro models and the iPhone 16e.

iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max: just a glass window

On the 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max, the frame and back form a single aluminium unit. Only a window on the back is still made of glass. If this window breaks, it is a smaller repair than a complete glass back. For the iPhone 17 and the iPhone Air, we tell you the approach after the free diagnosis, together with the quote.

From the shop

What people bring in

You can keep using an iPhone with cracked back glass, and many people do, until the first splinters come loose. The broken edges are sharp, and around the camera bump the glass usually chips out first. Until the repair, a case that covers the whole back protects it.

When an iPhone falls on a corner, it is often not just the glass that breaks. The frame is frequently dented at that spot too, and new glass will not sit flat on a bent frame. That is why we look at the frame first and tell you whether the housing should be replaced as well.

Tell us the exact model in advance. The iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro, for example, are two completely different repairs when it comes to the back, even though the phones look almost the same. You will find the model name in Settings under General and About.

Frequently asked questions

Questions and answers: iPhone Back Glass Repair

Does the whole housing have to be replaced if my iPhone back is broken?

Not on the iPhone 14 and 14 Plus or in the 15 and 16 series: there, the back is a separate part. On the iPhone 8 to 13, the iPhone SE and the 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max, the glass is firmly attached to the housing. There, it is either separated from the frame, or the components move into a new housing. Which approach makes sense depends on the condition of the frame.

Does MagSafe still work after the back is replaced?

Yes. The coil and the MagSafe magnet ring sit under the glass and stay in the phone. After fitting, we check that the iPhone charges wirelessly and that MagSafe accessories hold and are recognised. Only then does the phone go back to you.

How do I find out which iPhone model I have?

Open Settings, then General and About. That is where you will find the model name. It matters for the back because, for example, the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro are built differently and the repair is different accordingly.

How long does an iPhone back repair take?

As a rule, a few hours. Exactly how long depends on the model and on whether the part is in stock. If the back is removable, the job is much shorter than with glass that is fixed in the housing.

Is an iPhone back repair cheaper with you than at Apple?

Yes, the repair is cheaper with us than with the manufacturer. We give you the exact price for your model in a quote after the free diagnosis. Then you can decide in your own time.
