Will Apple replace my Iphone 5 with a cracked screen under applecare , or just fix the screen.

Hi, I cracked my iphone 5 and I am planning on taking it to the genius bar. I have heard apple is now fixing the screen instead of just giving you a knew phone. I am also wondering how much I would be charged. Will I have to restore my phone or anything or do they not even turn on my phone. Thank You!

As with any warranty on any product, damage is not covered.
It has nothing at all to do with the fact that they no longer sell iphone 5.  They will have planty of service units for quite some time. The warranty simply does not cover damage.

  • Will Apple replace a iPhone I found? (iPhone 5)

    I found a iPhone 5 on the side of the road, cracked screen, chipped corners and bent a bit, BUT the phone works great, and I can't restore it because I keep getting error 4013, ok now will Apple replace that iPhone even though I haven't bought it?

    hey grubbin. not true not true, long story short my friend bought a iphone off a friend that his ex girlfiriend forgot behind and her plan ran up, ( HOWEVER THIS IS PREPAID I THINK) and nothing was owed on it, but the new buyer got on verizon and the phone was not registered , there was a plan but the phone its self wasnt registered so my friend was able to get online register the phone with verizon and reset it to all his info and apple id and he uses the phone to this day. So it is possible , HOWEVER again if whoever lost it is going to report it stolen you dont want a receiving stolen property charge. Choice is yours.
    But that brings up another question? If someone loses their iphone and reports it lost and gets a new phone then would you be able to activate it and use it or should it be returned to apple, but who would pay out their own pocket to return a phone that isnt theirs

  • My iPhone 4 ( still under warranty ) has a dead gyroscope. Will Apple replace my iPhone for free?

    I recently upgraded to IOS 7. Once I upgrade I noticed that the gyroscope in my phone was acting strange. Just recently it went completely dead. If I take my phone to the Apple store and they verify it as a hardware issue will they replace my iPhone? It is still under warranty. Also since Apple stopped making the iphone 4 will they give me a newer version? Thanks

    If  your warranty is still valid and there is no evidence of abuse (water damage, dropping, etc.) your phone will be replaced for free with the same model refurbished iPhone 4.

    They should have one in Stock, but you never know. Call your Apple Store and tell them you have an iPhone 5 color and GB, and that you most likely will need a replacement, do they have any in Stock. If yes, go in, if not ask for advice on how to handle your problem.

  • Will Apple replace my iPhone 5C?

    I got my IPhone 5C September 29 and I've been experiencing problems...
    My iPhone:
    •Overheats
    -to the point I can't touch it anymore...
    especially when it is charging or on internet, but there has been times where I haven't been touching it and all apps are closed!
    •flashlight is almost never working!
    -in the control center, my flashlight icon is sometimes gray and won't let me select it, then other times it will let me use it
    •Siri tells me to come back at a later time
    -i understand that sometimes she/he may be incapable of answering or something, but she has said this more than I have gotten answers
    •my phone will flicker black
    -I will be in the middle of an app and the screen will go black for a second and be fine again... It seems like it has a glitch
    -this also happens all the time
    •apps are constantly shutting down
    -my phone will resort back to the home screen when the apps shut down, this happens frequently
    •battery drainage
    -this might not be just my phone, but I will go to school and it will have 100% battery and come home with 20% or less!
    -I don't stay after for anything normally... And I don't use it during school hours!
    •screen freezes up
    All the time in apps or browsing on internet my phone will freeze up...! It annoys me a lot!
    I really just don't know what to do about any of these^^^
    The Apple iPhone 5C is a really GREAT phone and I don't regret getting it whatsoever but, will Apple replace it?

    The remedy is up to Apple; however ...
    You should definitely contact them.  They will at a minimum check out your iPhone and make it right.

  • Will Apple replace my iPhone 5s for free?

    I own a space grey 16GB iPhone 5s and have done so since early January. It occasionally force restarts. Today I noticed that at about 3:10PM that it was on only 12% battery, I had accidentally left it on charge for the enitre previous night. It had 90% battery at about 10:55AM. I also noticed that it was really hot in my pocket. I had not be using it since 13:25PM and there was only one app open in multitasking (that app was Youtube and I had paused a video.) I also had a snapback phone cover on my iPhone. I usually get home at about 3:45PM and I usually have about 60% left. I do know that when the 5s was released that some users had similar problems to mine and it turned out that their phones had a manufacturing problem. Apple decided to replace hier phones free of charge. But, that was back in October and I am not sure if that free replacement will apply now. I got my phone through Carphone warhouse and I am on a 4G EE contract. My sister put my phone on her bank insurance as she was allowed so we cancelled the Carphone warehouse insurance. So my final question(s) is will Apple replace my phone? Will I have to pay? Should I go through my sisters bank insurance? Also, I don't really want to replace my phone so would anybody be able to tell me how to fix this problem? My iOS is up to date as well. Thank you for any help that I receive.

    The best thing to do is to book a Genius appointment with your nearest Apple Store and take your phone in. This needs to be done online at http://www.apple.com/uk/retail/geniusbar/
    They will be able to connect your phone to their diagnostic software and they should replace it if it's within the 12 month warranty period, which it will be if it's a 5S. They will also be aware of any glitches with the phones. Curious as to why you wouldn't want to replace it if it's faulty - not that it's any of my business. If you make sure you back it up first you should be fine. 

  • Does Apple replace an iPhone With after damage at a discounted price?

    Does Apple replace an iPhone 5 with water damage at a discounted price?

    Apple will give you a replacement at a discounted price from the full retail price of the iPhone whether or not you have AppleCare. If you have AppleCare+ coverage, you will pay only the "deductible"; check the terms for your plan. If you do not have AppleCare+ on your iPhone, see:

  • Will apple replace my iphones broken screen, will apple replace my iphones broken screen

    Will apple replace or repair my iphones broken screen

    Apple will offer an "out of warranty" replacement phone for about 50% of the cost of the phone, unless you purchased AppleCare+ whenyou purchased your phone, which would entitle you to a replacement for $49 (if your phone is still covered under that warranty).  Otherwise, Apple does not replace broken screens.

  • Will apple replace my phone with no cost if my lock button has stopped working??

    will apple replae my phone with no cost if my lock button has stopped working? iphone 4

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Only if the iPhone is in warranty. If not, you will probably have to pay for a refurbished iPhone (Apple doesn't repair iPhones and return them to you). See "Warranty & Service Pricing" > http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipho ne

  • Will apple replace my headphones with new ones?

    hi iv had my headphones for almost 1 year now..

    Apple will only not replace them if they have been damaged through misuse or an accident. If they have been used properly they are warranted to work for one year. If they failed at 11 months and 29 days it does not matter that they've been "well loved and well used", they are supposed to last for one full year. Unless they purchase AppleCare then it is two years.

    By all means, take them in and see what they say. I could be quite mistaken.
    deggie--
    AppleCare states:
    Your Plan covers defects for the Applebranded product(s) listed in your Planʼs Certificate or Proof of Coverage document (“Plan Confirmation”) and the accessories that are contained in the product(s) original packaging (“Covered Equipment”),
    (ii) Under APP for iPod, Apple will provide technical support for the Covered Equipment, iPod OS
    and software applications that are pre-installed with the Covered Equipment (both referred to as
    "iPod Software") and connectivity issues between the Covered Equipment and a supported
    computer, meaning a computer that meets the Covered Equipmentʼs connectivity specifications and
    runs an operating system that is supported by the Covered Equipment. Apple will provide support
    for the then-current version of the iPod Software, and the prior supported Major Release.
    Also--I never said that they shouldn't take them back--just to not be surprised if they were not replaced. They may well be, and as stated above, +I could be quite mistaken.+
    I am also presuming that these are not the stock earbuds that come with iPods, but a set of headphones that may not be stock issue. (They may not even be Apple-brand.) If these are the Apple in-ear headphones with remote that one buys as a standalone purchase, then they should be replaced if under a year. If these are the Dr. Dre sets...who knows? I am working with the information I got from the original poster.
    I guess I've worked too much retail, and have seen too many worst-case scenarios. I'd rather see them get replaced (and be incorrect) than to say yes, they'll be replaced no questions asked--and find out later they weren't.
    Still--a year warranty should be a year warranty....

  • Will apple replace my phone with a new one?

    I have always noticed since the day I got my 3g- sometime the seccond week it came out-that it had the problem of "light leak.". I just did not know it was a problem until today when I was searching for articles about my iPhone 3g dead pixel which I noticed yesterday. I think it's a dead pixel-black/grayish and looks like dust or eraser shaving under screen. I also have a couple of stuck pixels-green dots. Anyway, the pixel problems are very anoying to me. If I make an appointment with the apple retail store genius bar close to where I live, will apple fix my phone, give me a refurbished phone, or give me a brand new phone? I know the 3g s is comming out in a few days, but I am not looking for my current 3g to be replaced with a 3g s, just a new normal 3g. Any ideas on what would happen?

    Every warranty claim is on a case by case basis. If someone here tells you that their iPhone was exchanged under warranty with the same problem as you described doesn't mean that Apple will do the same in your case. All you can do is make an appointment and see what they say after your iPhone is inspected and tested. If your iPhone is exchanged under warranty, you would not receive an iPhone 3GS as the exchange if requested.
    Per the written warranty, an exchange under warranty will be a new or refurbished iPhone without you being able to tell the difference.

  • If my phone has been replaced in warranty but has become faulty will apple replace my iphone 5?

    I got my iphone replaced in august  as it was faulty and my warranty ran out in September . If I go see them again about several faults that have since appeared with my phone will Apple still replace it as I've only had the first replacement for 2 months? Thanks :)

    Your replacement phone came with a 90 day warranty or the balance of your original warranty, whichever is longer.

  • Will Apple replace an iPod with broken charging port

    My daughter has had her iPod for a year will Apple Repair or replace an iPod with broken charging port.

    If still under warranty, Apple frequently says the damage is caused by operator error and would only be covered by an Applecare+ extended warranty.
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4Gs They do not fix yours.

  • Will Apple replace my iPhone 5 for free if the lock button is not working properly?

    My iPhone 5 was bought in March 2013 and broke in January 2014 so I still have a few months left on my one year warranty.
    My lock button did not get stuck or jammed, but all of a sudden it just would not work.  I don't notice anything different about it and it still makes a "click" noise when I press it but, it wont do anything or respond to anything.  Clearly something is wrong with it and I am not sure why.
    I have my assessive touch ON but I would rather use my lock button.
    If I bring it into Apple will they replace it for FREE if my one year warranty isn't over and my lock button just will not respond to me pressing it?
    THANK YOU. PLEASE HELP.

    If Apple determines that it is eligible for coverage under the warranty then they will either replace it or fix it.
    In my experience,, if it is truly just a faulty button, then they will fix it but the tech will make that determination after inspection.

  • Loudspeaker and Lock Button not working? Will Apple replace my phone with a new one?

    My loudspeaker hasn't been working for a few weeks now, and recently the lock button has stopped working too.
    I've never dropped my phone in water etc. for the loudspeaker to stop working, and the lock button suddenly just did not work anymore - jammed in?
    I booked an appointment with the Apple Genuis Bar, will they likely repair my phone or give me a refurbished one?
    Cheers.

    Apple will not repair this iPhone, you will get a perfect replacement iPhone 4S exactly like yours, except it will function perfectly.
