iPhone Back Glass Replacement Cost UK (2026)

A cracked iPhone back creates two separate questions: what part is damaged, and what will the repair quote cover? A split in the glass may be the only fault. A drop can also dent the frame or damage the camera surround, which could mean a different repair. Sort out the scope before comparing prices.

For iPhone back glass replacement cost UK searches, iMobile’s pages currently show prices from £39.99 for iPhone 12 mini to £79.99 for iPhone 14 Plus. The iPhone 14 Pro Max page lists back glass replacement but did not display a price when checked on 22 October 2026. Check that page for a live quote.

iPhone Back Glass Replacement price list in the UK

Find your device below. Prices are shown as starting prices where multiple eligible product listings or service options can affect the final quote.

There’s a small surprise in that list: an iPhone 16 Pro Max shows a lower back-glass price than an iPhone 14 Plus. The year on the box is not a reliable shortcut, so check the page for your exact model.

The repair name matters too. Back glass replacement covers the glass panel; a back cover or full housing job may involve a larger assembly. iMobile lists those as separate options on some models. If the frame is bent or the camera surround is cracked, ask whether the listed glass price still applies. Don’t compare a glass-only quote with a full-housing quote as if they cover the same work.

When should you arrange cracked iPhone back repair?

A case can keep loose fragments from catching on clothing, but it does not fix the break. If the back is badly shattered, handle the phone carefully; tiny pieces can work free. Keep the device dry, and skip glue, heat or home scraping. Those attempts can damage parts behind the glass.

After a drop, check more than the finish. Has the camera stopped focusing? Does wireless charging still work? Does the phone sit level on a table? Mention anything unusual when you book. A technician can check whether the glass alone needs attention or whether another component was affected.

On many iPhone models the back glass is a separate repair from the screen. That can be useful if the display is still fine. The exact model and its condition determine whether a separate repair is suitable.

What affects iPhone back glass repair cost?

The model is one factor. Panel size, how the glass is attached and which parts are available can affect the components and time involved. The condition of the rest of the rear assembly matters too. A crack in the glass alone is a different job from a cracked panel plus a dented frame.

If you are deciding whether to repair or replace the phone, consider its overall condition. If the battery or display is also failing, add those prices up first. See iMobile’s iPhone battery replacement cost guide and iPhone screen replacement price guide for comparison.

Repair time and booking

iMobile says most back glass replacements are completed within 24 hours. Many store repairs finish the same day, though the model, parts availability and state of the glass can affect timing. The service page offers in-store, mail-in and online booking options. If you need the phone back by a particular time, check with the store first.

Before booking, back up the phone if possible and take off its case. Tell the technician about any camera or charging issue, even if it seems unrelated to the crack.
