Back of the iPhone SE 2020 is cracked

Hello, i currently have my iphone se 2020 for 4 months and suddenly i doscvered under the case that the entire back is cracked like a huge spiderweb. After doing many researches i have the following two options:

  1. change the entire phone to e certified apple store that will cost me 300 eur
  2. change the back glass only to a non certified third party place for 50 euros but have a chance of lagging the phone, dust proof etc functions that might stop working for me

In my experience, I would always replace the whole housing, not just the back glass.

Although back glass replacement has come a lomg way, it still is never the same quality of repair as a new housing.

Yes this is also another great idea unless the housing is in good condition and you do not want to open the device.

Hello,

I know apple is so stupid with their prices. Currently the only way to fix this is to take it to apple or give it to a 3rd party that uses a laser that melts the extremely strong adhesive on the glass. I dont think that giving it to a 3rd party to fix will lag the phone, it might affect the water resistance (its always a good practice to keep your devices away from water and other liquids)but i dont think dust might be a big problem if they install the new backing right. Perosnally i would take it to a 3rd party to get it fixed as my iphone xs back is cracked too but I haven’t gotten around to give to a repair shop to repair it. Jerryrigeverything has a video on the laser removing the adhesive and its pretty cool. Heres the video if you want to watch the process https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lj4Od9D4...

There are many back glass repair services out there. They are usually inexpensive but you can do it your self. It is easier with a laser machine but heat could work to, but is extremely difficult and you may damage something in the process.

Only function of glass on back is to allow wireless charging… I’d diy fix with epoxy and or packing tape.. why bother replacing??

To be honest, it is actually cheaper to do yourself (if you understand all of the iFixIt guides. If you have spare money and want a trustful repair. Look around for certified apple stores as there may be more that offer cheaper repairs. A fair price i would say for a certified store would be around €200, or for a non-certified store €100.

Hope this helped!
