The fast option that isn't a phone store kiosk

Most "fast" iPhone repair in Orange County is a kiosk that does screens and not much else. We do screens too, but we also do the harder stuff: charging ports, water damage, back glass, board-level work on devices most shops won't touch. That's the difference between a fast fix and a fix that actually solves the problem.

Walk-ins welcome. Most iPhone screen and battery jobs you can wait through. Same goes for iPad screens on current models. For trickier work (water damage, back glass, board repair) you drop off and we'll have it back to you fast.

Read our practical guide to same-day iPhone screen repair in Irvine for what to expect.

Every Apple mobile device

Current models, older models, the ones Apple won't touch anymore.

iPhone (current)

iPhone 16, 16 Pro, 16 Pro Max, 15 series, 14 series. Screens and batteries in stock.

iPhone (older)

iPhone 13, 12, 11, X / XS / XR, 8, 7, SE. Parts on-hand for most, can source on request.

iPad Pro

11" and 12.9" (M4, M2, M1, Intel). OLED displays on new Pros are quoted case-by-case.

iPad Air, mini, regular

iPad Air (M2, M1, older), iPad mini 7, 6, 5, regular iPad (10th, 9th, 8th gen).

Apple Watch

Series 4 through Series 9 and Ultra. Cracked screens and battery replacement.

AirPods

Limited (Apple doesn't make AirPods very repairable). Battery in case, charging issues, sometimes earbud-side battery.

What we fix every day

Eight repairs make up most of the work.

Cracked or broken screen

Front glass cracks, display dead spots, touch not responding, lines on the screen. 30 to 60 minutes on current iPhone. iPad screens take longer.

Battery replacement

When the battery is below ~80% health, draining fast, or shutting down at 30%. New battery, same day on most models. Cells that meet Apple's spec.

Charging port not working

Won't charge, only charges at certain angles, intermittent. Often a port cleaning (sometimes free) or replacement.

Water or liquid damage

Coffee, pool, washing machine, toilet. Don't power it on. Don't put it in rice. Bring it in fast. Board-level cleaning and component repair.

Back glass replacement

Cracked back glass on iPhone 8 and newer. Apple charges almost the price of a new phone for this. We do it for a fraction.

Camera repair

Cracked lens cover, blurry/spotty rear camera, front camera not working, FaceTime issues. Replacement modules in stock for current models.

Speaker or microphone

Earpiece muffled, calls one-way, speaker crackling, microphone not heard on calls. Component replacement.

Face ID or buttons

Face ID failing after a drop, power button, volume buttons, mute switch. These are doable, just trickier than screen work. We're honest about success rates.

Honest about parts, Face ID, and "genuine"

Standard repairs use high quality aftermarket parts. Premium OLED for current Pro screens, matched-grade displays for older. Cells that meet Apple's battery spec. These parts look and work exactly like the originals to you.

What's different from genuine Apple parts:Newer iPhones (XR and later for batteries, 12 and later for screens) show a "genuine part" note in Settings > General > About when a non-Apple part is installed. Face ID still works. True Tone still works on most of our screens. Brightness and color look right.

If you want zero notes in Settings, we can order Apple-genuine parts and pair them through Apple's process. Costs more, takes longer. Just ask.

What we won't do: sell you a cheap part and call it premium. We tell you what's going in at the quote.

iPhone and iPad repair questions

How long does iPhone screen repair take?+

Most iPhone screen repairs are 30 to 60 minutes while you wait. We keep current-gen screens (iPhone 14, 15, 16, Pro variants) in stock. Older models we usually have on-hand too, but call ahead if you want to confirm.

How much does iPhone screen repair cost vs the Apple Store?+

Real ranges. iPhone 14/15 standard screen repair is around $169 to $229 with us versus $279 to $329 at Apple. iPhone 14/15 Pro screens are $249 to $329 with us versus $329 to $379 at Apple. Older models (iPhone X through 13) range from $89 to $189 here. Free quote before any work.

Will repair break Face ID or True Tone?+

Honest answer. Battery and back-glass repairs do not affect Face ID. Screen repair with our standard high-quality replacement parts preserves True Tone and works with Face ID, but Apple's own software treats third-party screens differently and may show a 'genuine part' warning in Settings. Function is the same. If you want a genuine Apple display (no warning, full parity), we can source one at a higher price.

Can you fix water damaged iPhones?+

Often, yes. The big trick is timing. Power it off, don't try to charge it, and bring it in fast. We do board-level cleaning and component-level repair, which is the path to actually recovering the phone (not just drying it out). The longer corrosion sits, the harder it gets. Liquid damage is the one repair with a diagnostic fee, and we waive it if you go ahead with the work.

My iPhone won't charge. Is it the port or the battery?+

Most 'won't charge' cases are a dirty or damaged Lightning/USB-C port (often pocket lint compacted in over time), a worn-out battery, or a damaged charging IC on the board. We check all three in the diagnostic. Charging port cleanings are sometimes free if that's all it needs.

Do you replace the back glass on iPhone 8 and newer?+

Yes. The iPhone back glass (laminated to the chassis on iPhone 8 and newer) is one of the more annoying jobs because Apple charges almost as much as a new phone for it. We do it for a lot less. Pricing depends on model and whether the camera lens cover is also damaged.

What about iPad repair?+

Every model. iPad Pro (M-series and Intel), iPad Air, iPad mini, regular iPad. Screen repair is the most common, then battery and charging port. iPad Pro screens are involved (the OLED units especially) and take longer than iPhone screens. We give realistic timelines at the quote.

Apple Watch repair?+

Screens and batteries on most Series 4 through Series 9 and Ultra models. Apple Watch has limited repair options at Apple itself (they often just replace the whole unit), which makes us a much cheaper option for cracked screens.

Do you use genuine Apple parts?+

We use high quality OEM and OEM-equivalent parts as our standard. For batteries, cells that meet Apple's spec. For screens, premium aftermarket OLED for current Pro models, or matched-grade LCD for older. If you specifically want genuine Apple parts (which costs more), we'll order them. We're upfront about which is which on the quote.

Is there a warranty?+

90 days on parts and labor. If the repair fails in that window, bring it back and we fix it free.

Walk-in or do I need an appointment?+

Walk in any time. No appointment needed. We're at 18021 Sky Park Cir Suite H2 in Irvine. Free parking. Most screen and battery jobs you wait through; longer repairs you can drop off.

What if you can't fix it?+

The diagnostic is free on most repairs, and you only pay if you approve the work, so if we can't fix it you owe nothing. Liquid and water damage is the one exception, with a diagnostic fee only if you choose not to proceed. For things we can't do (heavily damaged boards on newer iPhones with chained ICs, for instance) we tell you up front and won't waste your time.
