iphone 7 screen repair

[Applegadget]

ip7 screen just cracked because of a really bad drop. Wondering if there's any recommendation for repair options. the official site states $189 (https://support.apple.com/en-sg/iphone/repair/service/pricing).

Are there other reliable options out there, from third party shops etc.

Thanks in advance!

Pay the S$189. Forget about going to 3rd party.

Go Genuine
Go $189

Genuine. 3rd party looks tempting with the price but you may need to go back two or three times if got issue lol.

Agree with everyone; just go for the genuine one. 3rd party shops are unreliable.

3rd party may not guarantee your phone to be waterproof.

Thanks for the advice, guys. Thought to update here.

I went to QCD at wheelock to do the repair. When I asked if the cost is 189, as stated in the apple official site, the staff shared that the price may vary based on the authorised service provider too. Apparently, this is stated in the fine print. The price turned out to be $218. I proceeded with the repair nonetheless - just thought to get it over and done with.

For those interested, I was also given the option to get a reburbished set, for $550. I decided that the price was not worth it, so went with the repair instead.

Apple this price, 3rd party another price. Apple put the price there also no use, we can't use that price. Still waiting for official apple to open here. I wanna enjoy apple pricing, not A.lab or QCD pricing.

More like enjoying Apple's world class service instead of the crappy service from A.Lab or QCD where they hold your ba**s hostage!
