Third-Party iPhone Screen Repairs Will No Longer Void Your Warranty

According to an internal memo that was distributed to Apple Store employees, iPhones that have undergone third-party screen repairs or replacements are now eligible for partial coverage under Apple’s warranty. Previously, repairs by third-party firms immediately voided Apple’s warranty.

The memo, which was obtained by MacRumors, says that third-party iPhone screen repairs no longer voids the handset’s standard warranty as long as the unauthorized fix does not damage the casing or other related components.

In order to redeem this partial warranty, the device must be within the original one-year warranty period or covered under extended warranty by an AppleCare+ plan. Apple employees will then ensure that the iPhone is free of apparent tampering or other damage that might result from a third-party screen replacement.

The display is usually a smartphone’s single most expensive component, and it’s the one that is most likely to break in the event of a drop or other accident.

I was paid $104000 previous year by doing an online job at home and I did it by wor­king part time f­o­r few h each day. I was following an earning opportunity I stumbled upon from this website i found online and I am so thrilled that I was able to earn so much extra income. It’s very beginner-friendly and I am just so happy that I found out about this. Here is what i do… TWITTER.COM/StinnettMargar1/status/835567639929880576

I’ve profited $104000 last year by doing an on-line job at home a­n­d I did that by work­ing part time for 3 or sometimes more hours every day. I used a business opportunity I found on-line and I am excited that i was able to make so much extra income. It’s very user friendly a­­n­­d I’m just so happy that I found out about this.
