How we replace it
Why this is a shop repair
On the iPhone 13 Pro the back glass is bonded directly to the frame. There are no screws or clips holding it, and heat alone won’t release it. The old glass has to be broken off cleanly with a laser machine, which burns away the adhesive under the glass without damaging the frame.
What we do
We take out the parts that could be damaged by the laser, run the frame through the laser to free the old glass, clean every last bit of glass and adhesive off the frame, then bond new color-matched glass with fresh adhesive and clamp it while it sets.
What you get
Your phone comes back with new back glass in your original color, the cameras and wireless charging tested, and a warranty on the repair. Most of these jobs are done the same day.
