Apple has published the estimated out-of-warranty repair costs for its new iPhone Duo. These figures provide a breakdown of potential expenses for owners who opt not to purchase AppleCare+.
The repair costs vary depending on the type of damage. Minor issues like cover layer damage are estimated at $49, while back glass damage costs $199. Battery service is priced at $229, and rear camera damage also costs $229. Outer display damage is $379, and combined outer display and back glass damage is $509. Significant damage, such as to the inner display, is estimated at $999, and 'other damage' is the most expensive at $1,499.
Purchasing AppleCare+ substantially reduces these repair fees. For example, theft or loss is $149 with AppleCare+, battery service becomes free, front display damage costs $29, and inner display damage is $99. AppleCare+ adds $19.99 per month to the device's cost.
Apple notes that these are estimated service costs. Apple Authorized Service Providers have the ability to set their own service fees and will provide their own estimates to customers.
