What Apple's screen replacement estimate covers
Included
- A cracked, shattered or chipped front screen
- Touch response failure, dead zones or ghost touch
- Display defects such as lines, discolouration or backlight failure
- A genuine Apple display fitted by an Apple-authorised technician
Not included
- Damage to the back glass — that is priced separately
- A bent or dented frame, which moves the repair to the "other damage" tier
