📱 Why Choose Glass-Only Replacement Over Full Screen Swap?

Most people don't know glass-only replacement exists. They walk into repair shops expecting to pay for a complete screen assembly when only the top layer needs fixing. This technique cuts repair costs by more than half. Take the iPhone 15 Pro: glass replacement costs €150.82 (ex VAT) or €187.02 (inc VAT), while authentic full screen replacement hits €345.95 (ex VAT) or €428.98 (inc VAT) — that's over 56% savings!
