Screen Repair Costs
The iPhone X has a Super Retina HD Display. Since the very first iPhone, Apple has used a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) for every display. That changed in the tenth generation, iPhone X. The Super Retina HD Display (OLED) is significantly more expensive to manufacture than an LCD.
As a result, that is the top reason iPhones have been drastically more expensive to repair since introduction of the X series. But, don’t worry, costs are coming down. Did you know, even the iPhone 3G (from 2008) was $329 for a screen repair when it first came out? Yes, even those were expensive when the technology was new!
