iPhone 12 Repair Cost: Screens, Batteries and Back Glass
4 min read
Compare iPhone 12 repair costs: €109 for a screen, €69 for a battery and €149 for back glass, plus repair times, warranties and what to expect.
How much does an iPhone 12 repair cost?
A cracked screen or a battery that no longer lasts the day does not necessarily mean it is time to replace your iPhone 12. Start with a clear repair price, then consider the condition of the rest of the phone.
At iBrokeIt.es, an independent iPhone repair workshop in central Fuengirola, the prices for the standard iPhone 12 are:
- Screen replacement: €109, with a lifetime warranty on the screen.
- Battery replacement: €69, with a one-year warranty on the battery.
- Back glass replacement: €149.
These prices include parts, labour and VAT. They apply to the iPhone 12, rather than the 12 mini, 12 Pro or 12 Pro Max. If you are unsure which version you have, check Settings, then General, then About.
Common iPhone 12 faults and what they mean
Cracked screen, lines or unreliable touch
Screen damage is not always limited to a visible crack. After a knock, you might notice flickering, coloured lines, black patches or areas that no longer respond to touch. Sometimes the phone still rings or vibrates even though the display stays black.
A screen replacement can address faults within the display assembly, but a black screen alone does not confirm that the display is the problem. Power, charging or internal faults can produce similar symptoms, so checking the phone first matters.
If broken glass is loose, avoid pressing it or continuing to swipe across it. Arrange a repair rather than risking a cut or further damage.
Battery draining quickly or shutting down
As an iPhone 12 battery ages, you may find yourself charging more often, carrying a power bank or seeing unexpected shutdowns. A €69 battery replacement can be worth considering when battery wear is behind those symptoms.
Check Settings, then Battery, then Battery Health & Charging for the maximum capacity and any service message. This is a useful starting point, not a complete diagnosis: background apps, weak mobile reception and software issues can also increase battery use.
If the screen starts lifting or you suspect a swollen battery, stop charging and using the phone and have it assessed promptly. Do not press the screen back down.
Broken back glass
The iPhone 12 has a glass back, which can crack after a drop even when the front survives. Replacement costs €149.
Mention any camera trouble, wireless charging problems or visible bending when booking. Back glass damage and damage to the frame or other components are not necessarily the same repair, so the technician needs to check what is affected.
Charging and sound problems
An unreliable charging connection, muffled speaker or microphone issue deserves a diagnosis before parts are replaced. Debris, accessory faults and damaged components can cause similar symptoms. Avoid digging inside the charging port with a metal object; describe the problem and let the technician inspect it.
How long will the repair take?
For straightforward iPhone 12 screen and battery work, allow around 15–30 minutes. Screen and battery swaps at iBrokeIt.es typically take 15–20 minutes, with the exact visit length depending on checks and workshop availability.
Do not assume back glass replacement follows the same quick turnaround. Ask for a completion estimate when booking, particularly if the phone has additional damage. Multiple faults or further diagnostic work may also need longer.
Walk-ins are welcome at the Fuengirola workshop, open Monday–Saturday, 09:30–20:00. Mobile technicians also cover Marbella, Benalmádena, Mijas, La Cala and the wider Costa del Sol. Ask about availability and whether your repair is suitable for a mobile visit.
What to expect before and after repair
Before visiting, note when the fault happens and whether it followed a drop, liquid exposure or software update. If charging is the problem, mention which cables and chargers you have tried.
No data is wiped during repairs at iBrokeIt.es. Nevertheless, keeping a current backup is sensible whenever a phone is damaged or unreliable.
After the repair, check the relevant functions with the technician: touch response and display appearance after screen work, or charging after a battery replacement. Ask about aftercare and any remaining damage. Do not assume a repaired or previously damaged phone is waterproof.
Warranty and choosing the right repair
Replacement screens carry a lifetime warranty, while replacement batteries have a one-year warranty. Ask what the warranty covers and how to arrange a check if a problem develops. Do not assume warranty cover includes a later drop or liquid damage; confirm the terms, and ask separately about back glass cover.
