iPhone Back Glass Repair with a Fast, Professional Fix
Apple began making iPhone back panels out of glass starting with the iPhone 8 to allow for wireless charging. While this feature is convenient, glass inevitably breaks when dropped. If your iPhone slipped and shattered on the back, you are left with a device that looks bad, is uncomfortable to hold, and exposes the internal battery to moisture and dust. Our approach is straightforward: if it is broken, we replace it.
The repair time depends heavily on your specific device. For the iPhone 8 through the iPhone 13 series, and also for the iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max, the back glass is permanently glued to the metal frame at the factory. We use a specialized laser machine to safely remove this heavy adhesive without damaging the internal wireless charging coil. Because this is a highly detailed process, we guarantee the repair by the next day. However, if you drop it off early in the morning, we will always try our best to get it back to you the same day.
For the iPhone 14 and 14 Plus, along with the entire iPhone 15 series and newer, including the Pro and Pro Max models, Apple redesigned the internal frame so the back glass can be removed on its own. This makes the repair much safer and significantly faster. For these newer models, we complete the back glass replacement the same day, usually in about two hours. Walk into our Hialeah shop and we will get rid of the sharp edges and make your phone look brand new again.

Do I need an appointment for iPhone back glass repair?
No appointment is required. You can walk into our repair shop in Hialeah during business hours. If you prefer, call (786) 589-3441 first to ask about availability, timing, and a personalized quote for your specific model.
If I have a broken back glass and cracked camera lenses, do I need to pay for both repairs?
It depends on your model. On the iPhone 14, 14 Plus, and the entire iPhone 15 series and newer, including the Pro and Pro Max models, the camera lens glass is part of the same back panel assembly, so replacing the back glass also replaces cracked camera lenses at no extra cost. On older models, including the iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max, the back glass and camera lens are separate components, but we can handle both repairs in the same visit.
My phone dropped, the back glass cracked, and now it won't turn on. Will replacing the glass fix it?
No. The back glass is a cosmetic and protective layer. Replacing it will not fix a phone with internal motherboard damage or a screen broken from a severe drop. We do not recommend leaving a phone with holes in the back, since that exposes internal parts to moisture, but the glass repair itself will not solve power issues. We run a full hardware diagnostic to find out why the phone will not turn on.
Will my iPhone still be water resistant after a back glass repair?
You should never fully rely on your phone's water resistance. We properly reseal the back panel during the repair, but any drop severe enough to crack the glass has already compromised the factory seal. We do not recommend exposing any repaired device to water.
Why did my iPhone back glass crack if I have a case?
A direct impact on a corner or edge, or a drop onto a hard surface like tile, can crack the back glass even with a thick case, since cases absorb shock rather than eliminate it completely.
Does a cracked back glass affect wireless charging on my iPhone?
A cracked back panel alone usually does not stop wireless charging. But if the crack is deep or the internal charging coil was directly impacted in the drop, charging speed can drop or stop entirely. We test this during diagnosis.
Can I change the color of my iPhone back glass during the repair?
Technically yes, but we advise against it. The back glass color is designed to match your phone's metal frame and camera rings. A mismatched color looks unnatural and can affect how Apple or carriers evaluate the device for a future trade-in. If you want a full color change, we recommend replacing the entire housing assembly instead.
