7 Best Phone Repair Shops in Singapore (2026): iPhone Screen Repair Prices from S$85 Glass-Only to S$575 Genuine, Compared Shop by Shop

Ask three Singapore repair shops what a cracked iPhone 15 Pro costs and you'll be quoted S$135, S$285 and S$455. Every one of them is telling the truth, because those are three different screens. Read off the shops' own published price lists on 27 September 2026: Mobile Life lists that exact ladder (Grade A S$135, Grade AA S$285, Original Quality S$455) and Citri Mobile publishes the identical three figures (Grade AAA S$135, Original Grade S$285, Genuine S$455, nett, last updated 24 September 2026). A.LAB, an Apple Authorised Service Provider, charges S$495 for the same phone with a genuine Apple part. So the genuine screen costs S$455 at an independent against S$495 in Apple's own authorised channel, a gap of S$40. There is no meaningful discount on a real Apple screen in Singapore; the discount is the part. It gets starker on new models: Mobile Life's iPhone 17 Pro Max original-quality display is S$575, which is exactly what A.LAB charges, to the dollar. And the cheapest fix on this page is on nobody's headline. If your display still lights up and touch still works, a glass-only swap keeps the OLED and costs S$85 at Mobile Life or S$130 at Citri, a fifth of the genuine-panel price. One warning for owners of the newest phones: on an iPhone 17 Pro Max, Citri charges S$165 for glass alone and S$150 for a whole Grade AAA screen, so the cheap trick inverts. Below: seven shops, their real outlets and hours, published prices where they publish them, warranty lengths from 30 days to 100, and the student discounts two of them run all year.

Three shops, three prices, three different screens.

> Quick view: glass-only from S$85 if the display still lights up; a non-genuine screen S$135–285; a genuine one is S$455–575 almost everywhere, Apple's authorised centre included.

Mobile Life: the only shop here that publishes a nett price for your exact model before you leave the house

Runs a per-model price calculator covering roughly a thousand device-and-fault combinations, with every price on it re-read on 27 September 2026, which makes it the only place on this list where you can settle the price argument in advance. The iPhone 15 Pro ladder in full: screen glass replacement S$85, Grade A display S$135, Grade AA S$285, original quality S$455; battery S$55 Grade AA, S$70 for a cell reporting 100% health with no service message, S$120 genuine; charging port S$55; rear camera S$85, or S$298 original. Samsung is priced the same way, a Galaxy S24 Ultra being S$130 for glass, S$260 for a Grade AA display and S$45 for a battery, and an S25 Ultra S$115, S$245 and S$50. Newest models sit where you'd expect: an iPhone 17 Pro Max is S$135 glass, S$415 Grade AA and S$575 original quality, that last figure identical to what Apple's authorised channel charges. The freshly added iPhone Air page runs S$125 glass, S$495 original quality and S$145 for a battery, which beats A.LAB's S$175 battery on the same phone. Four outlets, all in the heartlands and all within walking distance of an MRT station: Queenstown HQ at 171 Stirling Road #01-1117 (EW19), Serangoon at 23 Serangoon Central #04-K6 in NEX (NE12/CC13), Bishan at 9 Bishan Place #04-K1 in Junction 8 (NS17/CC15) and Yishun at Northpoint City #02-154 South Wing (NS13). All open 10.30am to 9.30pm daily including public holidays, the longest hours here. Free diagnosis, walk-ins welcome, no appointment needed, most repairs done in 25 to 60 minutes and over 90% same day, motherboard and heavy water damage one to three days. It is also an Apple Independent Repair Provider, so genuine Apple parts, tools and diagnostics are available for eligible out-of-warranty iPhone work. Every repair carries the ML100 guarantee: 100 days on parts and workmanship, no registration form. Its Queenstown HQ is also on CASE's CaseTrust register as an accredited storefront business, valid to March 2029; the three mall kiosks are not listed separately. Can't get there? Islandwide two-way collection and delivery is a flat S$30, cash or PayNow on delivery. Best for: knowing the price before you commit, and long evening hours seven days a week.

Student deals: S$5 off a phone repair with a minimum spend of S$50, S$10 extra on a trade-in, and S$10 off a refurbished phone. Student card AND a social-media follow required, in-store at all four outlets. Islandwide pickup and delivery a flat S$30.

A.LAB: the Apple Authorised Service Provider, and it comes to you instead of you queueing at Orchard

An Apple Authorised Service Provider operating a pickup-and-delivery model rather than a shopfront, which quietly solves the most annoying part of an authorised repair: the queue. Its published iPhone service prices are Apple's own out-of-warranty figures: iPhone 15 and 16 screens S$429, iPhone 15 Plus / 15 Pro / 16 Plus / 16 Pro / 17 / 17 Pro and the new iPhone Air S$495, all four Pro Max generations S$575, and the 16e and 17e S$345. With AppleCare+ those numbers collapse to a flat S$42 service fee for a screen or back glass and S$148 for any other accidental damage. Batteries run S$145 across the 15 series, the 16, 16 Plus and 16e, and the 17 and 17e, rising to S$175 on the Air, 16 Pro, 16 Pro Max, 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max, and battery service is free while the device is in warranty or covered by AppleCare+. Set those against the independents and the case for going authorised is stronger than most people assume: an iPhone 15 Pro genuine screen is S$455 at Mobile Life or Citri against S$495 here, a S$40 premium for Apple's own service warranty and a documented repair history; on an iPhone 17 Pro Max there is no premium at all, both being S$575. Collection and return is the Get PUD service at S$20 per device, free for Macs, booked over WhatsApp with pickups running Monday to Friday except public holidays, 9.30am to 5pm, and that fee is separate from the repair charge itself. There is no walk-in counter, so everything runs through booking, with the phone line on 6784 1318 staffed Monday to Friday 9am to 6pm, so this is the one on this list you cannot use spontaneously on a Sunday. Best for: any device still under Apple warranty or AppleCare+, and anyone who wants the genuine part with Apple's paperwork behind it.

Get PUD: islandwide pickup and delivery at S$20 per device, free for Mac. Book on WhatsApp; pickups Mon–Fri (except public holidays) 9.30am–5pm. Excludes the out-of-warranty repair fee. Battery service free in warranty or with AppleCare+.

Citri Mobile: Apple Independent Repair Provider, four heartland shops, and the best student discount on this list

Fifteen years in Singapore, 4.8 stars across 1,100-plus Google reviews, CaseTrust accredited (CASE's register lists the Chinatown shop at People's Park Centre, valid to November 2029, and not the other three), and a participant in Apple's Independent Repair Provider programme, which means access to genuine Apple parts, tools and diagnostics for out-of-warranty iPhone work without being a full authorised centre. Prices are published per model as nett figures and were last updated 24 September 2026. The iPhone 15 Pro list: screen genuine S$455, original grade S$285, Grade AAA S$135, screen glass replacement S$130; battery genuine S$120, original grade S$55, or S$65 for the no-error-message version; back glass S$220 genuine or S$70 Grade AAA; charging port S$55; Face ID repair S$90; power or volume button S$45; water damage chemical wash S$45; camera removal S$30. On the newest phones it is the cheapest route to a genuine panel: an iPhone 17 Pro Max screen is S$545 here against S$575 at Mobile Life and A.LAB, and an iPhone Air screen is S$485 against S$495 at both. Read the same lists carefully, though, because glass-only stops being the bargain: S$165 for 17 Pro Max glass against S$150 for a whole Grade AAA screen. Repairs run on a pay-only-after-successful-completion basis with a warranty of 30 to 100 days depending on the part and the job and stated on your receipt, and its own iPhone 15 Pro page headlines the full 100 days, most jobs finished in 30 to 90 minutes while you wait, and data left untouched on most repairs. The student scheme is the strongest here: 5% off all phone repairs capped at S$15 and 10% off laptop and MacBook repairs capped at S$30, for students from any university, rising to 10% and 20% for James Cook University staff and students, on production of a valid card in store. It does not stack with other promotions. Four shops, all 11am to 9pm daily with no appointment needed: Chinatown at People's Park Centre #01-47, Tampines at 503 Tampines Central 1 #01-299, Yishun at Blk 846 Yishun Street 81 #01-3643, and Jurong inside CarousellMOBILE at Jurong Point #B1-34A. Best for: students, and anyone who wants genuine Apple parts without the authorised-channel booking process.

LYK Repair: the one that will come to your home or office, and won't charge you if it can't fix it

Trading since 2014 with more than 10,000 customers, and an Apple Independent Repair Provider, so genuine Apple parts are available for eligible out-of-warranty devices alongside OEM alternatives. What separates it from the other multi-outlet chains is the doorstep option: a technician will come to your home or office anywhere on the island and do the repair in front of you, which matters if you cannot be without the phone for even an hour or if the device holds work data you would rather not leave at a counter. Every job starts with a free diagnostic and an upfront quote, and the policy is no fix, no charge, so you are not paying for a failed attempt. Screen and battery replacements take 30 to 60 minutes, more involved work such as motherboard faults and water damage is handled in-house rather than sent out, usually completed same day but allow one to three days. Warranty is 100 days on parts and workmanship, voided by tampering, post-repair water exposure or jailbreaking. It also runs bulk repair programmes for businesses and schools. The one thing it does not do is publish prices: you send your model and fault over WhatsApp on 9025 2185 for an estimate, or bring the phone in. Four branches, all open 11am to 9pm daily: Tai Seng at 1 Irving Place, The Commerze@Irving #06-07; Jurong East at 2 Venture Drive, Vision Exchange #02-15; Woodlands at 12 Woodlands Square, Woods Square Tower 1 #12-65; and Bugis at 470 North Bridge Road, Bugis Cube #02-06. Note that three of the four sit in office towers rather than malls, so check the unit number before you go. Best for: doorstep repair, and anyone who wants the diagnosis to cost nothing if they walk away.

Free diagnostic on every device, no fix no charge, and doorstep repair available islandwide, plus a 100-day warranty on parts and workmanship

iDevice Repair Centre: the board-level bench for the phone every other shop refused

The specialist on this list, and the one to call when a counter has told you the logic board is dead. It works at component level under a microscope, tracing the individual failed part rather than swapping the whole assembly, which is the difference between finding a S$4 component and being sold a S$900 board. Its own published case notes make the point concretely: a MacBook Pro 13-inch quoted elsewhere at S$980 for a full logic board turned out to be one shorted rail after a minor spill, repaired for under S$300 with the original board kept; a laptop quoted around S$1,400 in parts for a new panel and GPU board was a pinched display cable at the hinge, fixed for S$140. On phones it handles the faults that walk-in counters decline: no power, boot loops, backlight failure and charging circuits, alongside ordinary iPhone and iPad screens, batteries and ports. Its own iPhone motherboard page puts board-level iPhone repair at roughly S$120 to S$800, priced on diagnostic time and the specific failure rather than a parts catalogue, with laptop board work quoted at S$180 to S$550; the same guide allows 3 to 7 days for board work against the same-day turnaround it manages on batteries and stocked screens, the shop quotes in writing before it starts and lets you approve the cost before the work goes ahead. Rated 4.8 on Google across 940-plus reviews, with 72% of repairs finished same day and warranty on parts and labour. Two caveats worth planning around. It is a workshop bench rather than a mall counter, at 6 Harper Road, Leong Huat Building #05-02, three minutes from Tai Seng MRT. And it opens Monday to Friday 9.30am to 7pm only, so a weekend board fault waits. Islandwide courier collection is available for machines that should not be moved, such as a swollen battery. Best for: dead boards, boot loops, and second opinions on a very large quote.

Free written diagnosis with the fault shown to you under a microscope, and you approve the cost before any work begins, with no charge to walk away

BreakFixNow: four walk-in counters, and the longest labour warranty on this list

A Bugis Village walk-in that has been fixing phones and laptops in the same spot long enough to have its own signboard on the arcade. Unlike almost every write-up of this shop, its own site lists more counters beyond Bugis, in Ang Mo Kio and Jurong East, with a Marine Parade one opening on 1 October 2026. It covers the full spread, from iPhone, Samsung, iPad and MacBook to Windows laptops from Acer, Asus, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Microsoft and Alienware, which makes it a sensible single stop if the household has a broken phone and a broken laptop at the same time. The warranty structure is the unusual part and worth reading properly: up to 3 months on phone repair parts but 6 months on labour, the longest workmanship cover on this list, though shorter on parts than the 100 days Mobile Life and LYK offer. Diagnostics are free and it gives an upfront price estimate before any work starts, with same-day diagnostics on most issues and same-day repairs available on common faults. Free pick-up and delivery is offered for customers who cannot get there, and it also buys and sells used devices and gaming rigs if the verdict is that repair isn't worth it. Prices are not published online, so you take the device in or message first. The Bugis shop opens 11am to 9pm daily at Bugis Village, Cheng Yan Place #01-106, beside the DBS ATM and two minutes from Bugis MRT, with an office at 62 Queen Street. The others: Ang Mo Kio Central #01-2533 (703 Ang Mo Kio Ave 8), 11am to 9pm daily, and Westgate #03-K2 outside Singtel, which its own Jurong East page lists as noon to 9pm rather than 11am. The Bedok Mall counter has gone from its locations list; in its place is Parkway Parade #B1-45 (80 Marine Parade Road), opening 1 October 2026, 11am to 9pm daily. Best for: a walk-in fix in town, mixed phone-and-laptop households, and anyone who values a long labour warranty.

myhalo: the one that will tell you honestly whether the phone is worth repairing at all

Sits at the intersection of repair, trade-in and resale, which makes it the useful stop when the real question isn't how to fix the phone but whether to bother. In one visit you can get a repair quote, an instant trade-in valuation and a price for a certified pre-owned replacement, then compare all three, a comparison the pure repair shops cannot offer you, because they only make money on one of the three outcomes. It repairs iPhone, Samsung and Google Pixel phones (screens, batteries, back glass, charging ports), iPads, Microsoft Surface, MacBooks and Windows laptops including motherboard and logic board work, and runs data recovery and professional data-wipe services alongside. The sustainability angle is not just branding: its Upcycle scheme takes old devices off your hands and adds a S$30 voucher on top of whatever the device is worth, usable against a future purchase or service. The main store is myhalo CircularXchange at Bugis Junction #03-25/26, open daily 11am to 8pm. That is earlier closing than the other walk-ins here, so don't leave it until 8.30pm. There is a second drop-off and collection point at Sim Lim Square #03-40, in the building most Singaporeans think of first for tech repair anyway. Corporate ITAD and IT lifecycle services run out of the same operation, so bulk office device disposal is handled too. Prices are quoted on inspection rather than published. Best for: the repair-or-replace decision, older devices, and clearing out the drawer of dead electronics while you're at it.

Why this roundup exists

Search "phone repair Singapore" and you get price ranges ("S$80 to S$400"), which is useless when you are standing at a counter holding a cracked phone. The range is wide not because shops disagree, but because the word "screen" covers four different jobs at four different prices, and almost nobody says which one they are quoting.

Everything below was read off each company's own website, price list or ordering system on 27 September 2026. Where a shop publishes per-model nett prices (Mobile Life and Citri Mobile do), those are the figures quoted. Where a shop only quotes on WhatsApp or in person (LYK Repair, BreakFixNow, myhalo), that is said plainly rather than filled in with a number from a blog.

The four jobs hiding inside the word "screen"

  1. Screen glass replacement. The outer glass is cracked but the display still shows a picture and touch still works. The technician separates the glass from the OLED panel and bonds new glass to your original screen. iPhone 15 Pro: S$85 at Mobile Life, S$130 at Citri Mobile. This is the cheapest real fix on this page and the one most people never get offered, because it takes longer and earns the shop less. Ask for it by name.
  2. Aftermarket display assembly. A whole new screen, but not an Apple part. Sold as Grade A / Grade AAA. iPhone 15 Pro: S$135 at both Mobile Life and Citri. Bright enough day to day, but expect a dimmer panel, weaker colour and, on some units, True Tone lost.
  3. Mid-grade display assembly. Grade AA or "Original Grade", a step up in panel quality. iPhone 15 Pro: S$285 at both.
  4. Genuine Apple display. The real part. iPhone 15 Pro: S$455 at Mobile Life and Citri, S$495 at A.LAB as an Apple Authorised Service Provider.

That last line is the finding worth carrying around. A genuine Apple screen is not meaningfully cheaper outside Apple's channel. On the iPhone 17 Pro Max it isn't cheaper at all: Mobile Life's original-quality display is S$575 and A.LAB's is S$575. Identical. If you want the real part, the authorised route costs you nothing extra and comes with Apple's own service warranty instead of a shop's 30 to 100 days.

The saving only appears when you accept a different part. That is a legitimate choice, and a S$135 panel on a three-year-old phone you plan to trade in next year is sensible, but it should be a choice you make rather than one made for you by whoever quoted lowest.

On the newest phones, the ladder changes shape

Every rule above was written from the iPhone 15 Pro, the model most people are still carrying. Check the current price lists for an iPhone 17 Pro Max or an iPhone Air and two things move.

First, glass-only stops being the cheap trick. On Citri Mobile's list, updated 24 September 2026, an iPhone 17 Pro Max glass replacement is S$165 while a whole Grade AAA screen is S$150. Paying for the delicate job costs you more than replacing the panel outright. Mobile Life still has glass cheapest on that model at S$135, so it is worth asking both. On the iPhone Air, Citri prices glass at S$155 and does not publish a Grade AAA screen at all.

Second, the genuine-part gap reopens slightly, in the independents' favour. Citri now lists a genuine iPhone 17 Pro Max screen at S$545 against A.LAB's S$575, a S$30 saving, and a genuine iPhone Air screen at S$485 against A.LAB's S$495. Mobile Life prices the Air's original-quality display at S$495, matching the authorised channel to the dollar, and its battery at S$145 where A.LAB charges S$175. On brand-new models the answer is genuinely shop-by-shop, so get all three numbers before you commit.

How to choose

  • Does the display still work? Then ask about glass-only first, S$85 to S$130 instead of S$135 to S$575. On phones newer than the 16 series, check that glass really is the cheaper line.
  • Is the phone still under Apple warranty or AppleCare+? Go authorised. With AppleCare+, a screen or back-glass repair is a flat S$42 service fee and any other accidental damage is S$148, against S$455 to S$575 out of warranty. Battery service is free in warranty or on AppleCare+, and a non-authorised repair can void what is left of your coverage on the affected parts.
  • Do you want the price before you leave the house? Only Mobile Life and Citri Mobile publish per-model nett prices online. Everyone else quotes after they see the phone.
  • Is it a battery, not a screen? Batteries are the cheap repair nobody bothers with: iPhone 15 Pro is S$55 for a Grade AA cell at Mobile Life, S$70 for one that reports 100% health with no service message, and S$120 for genuine. A phone that dies at 3pm usually needs a S$55 part, not a S$1,700 replacement.
  • Won't power on at all? That is a board fault, and most walk-in counters will decline it or quote you a whole logic board. iDevice Repair Centre is the one here that microsolders at component level, and its own iPhone motherboard page puts board-level iPhone work at roughly S$120 to S$800 over 3 to 7 days.
  • Are you a student? Citri gives 5% off phone repairs (capped at S$15) and 10% off laptops and MacBooks (capped at S$30), with 10% and 20% for James Cook University; Mobile Life takes S$5 off a phone repair over S$50, S$10 more on a trade-in and S$10 off a refurbished phone, but wants a social-media follow as well as the student card. Neither stacks with other promotions.

Before you hand the phone over

Back it up, sign out of Find My if the shop asks (and be suspicious if they ask for your Apple Account password, because they should not need it), note your battery health and screen serial in Settings beforehand, and ask two questions: *which grade of part is this price for*, and *how long is the warranty on that specific part*. Both answers change the price by hundreds of dollars, and both are things every shop on this list will tell you straight if asked.

One more thing worth knowing: on iPhone, replacing the front camera module usually kills Face ID unless your original module is transferred across. Mobile Life prices this honestly, listing "Front Camera Replacement (No Face ID)" at S$75 on an iPhone 15 Pro and a full Face ID repair as a separate S$299 line. Citri lists Face ID repair at S$90. If Face ID matters to you, say so before work starts.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to replace an iPhone screen in Singapore in 2026?

Between S$85 and S$575 for the same phone, depending entirely on which of four jobs you are buying. Taking an iPhone 15 Pro as the benchmark, read off the shops' own price lists on 27 September 2026: a glass-only replacement that keeps your original OLED panel is S$85 at Mobile Life and S$130 at Citri Mobile; a Grade A / Grade AAA aftermarket display assembly is S$135 at both; a Grade AA / "original grade" assembly is S$285 at both; and a genuine Apple display is S$455 at either independent or S$495 at A.LAB, an Apple Authorised Service Provider. Newer phones shift the whole ladder up: Mobile Life prices an iPhone 17 Pro Max original-quality display at S$575 and a Grade AA one at S$415, with glass-only at S$135, while Citri lists the same model at S$545 genuine, S$415 original grade, S$150 Grade AAA and S$165 for glass alone. Older phones sit lower, an iPhone 14 being S$65 glass-only, S$90 for Grade A, S$125 for Grade AA and S$415 genuine. If a shop quotes you one number without naming a grade, that quote is incomplete.

Is a third-party shop actually cheaper than Apple for a genuine screen?

Barely, and on some models not at all, which is the opposite of what most people assume. A genuine Apple display for an iPhone 15 Pro is S$455 at Mobile Life and S$455 at Citri Mobile, against S$495 at A.LAB as an Apple Authorised Service Provider: a S$40 difference on a S$455 job, under 9%. Move up to an iPhone 17 Pro Max and Mobile Life closes the gap completely, its original-quality display being S$575 against A.LAB's S$575, the same figure to the dollar, while Citri undercuts both at S$545. The pattern repeats on the iPhone Air: Citri S$485, A.LAB S$495, Mobile Life S$495. A.LAB's published ladder runs S$345 for a 16e or 17e, S$429 for a 15 or 16, S$495 for the Air, the Plus and Pro models, and S$575 for the Pro Max, with batteries at S$145 to S$175 and battery service free while in warranty or on AppleCare+. So if you specifically want the real Apple part, going authorised costs you almost nothing extra and gets you Apple's own service warranty rather than a shop's 30 to 100 days. The genuine saving at an independent comes from choosing a non-genuine panel, S$135 or S$285 instead of S$455, which is a decision about the part rather than about the shop.

What is the difference between "screen glass replacement" and "LCD replacement"?

One replaces only the cracked outer glass and keeps your original display underneath; the other throws the whole assembly away. It is the single biggest saving available on this page and it is almost never volunteered at the counter. On an iPhone 15 Pro, Mobile Life charges S$85 for screen glass replacement and S$135 to S$455 for a full LCD assembly depending on grade; Citri Mobile charges S$130 for glass and S$135 to S$455 for the assembly. On a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra the split is even wider, S$130 for glass against S$260 for a Grade AA assembly at Mobile Life, and on an S25 Ultra it is S$115 against S$245. The one place the logic inverts is Apple's newest phones: on Citri's list an iPhone 17 Pro Max is S$165 for glass but S$150 for a whole Grade AAA screen. The other catch is that glass-only only works if the panel underneath is still healthy: the display must still show a picture and touch must still respond across the whole screen. If there are black patches, coloured lines, dead touch zones or the screen is completely dark, the panel itself is damaged and you need the full assembly. Ask the shop to power the phone on in front of you and confirm which category you are in before agreeing to a price.

Will a third-party repair void my Apple warranty or break Face ID?

A repair by a non-authorised shop can void what is left of Apple's warranty on the parts affected, and a non-genuine display will show an "Unable to verify this iPhone has a genuine Apple display" message in Settings. Face ID is a separate question and worth asking about explicitly, because it depends on which module is touched. Face ID hardware is paired to your phone's board, so a display swap normally leaves it working, but replacing the front camera module usually kills it unless your original module is transferred across. Mobile Life prices this transparently: its "Front Camera Replacement (No Face ID)" is S$75 on an iPhone 15 Pro, with a full Face ID repair as a separate S$299 line; Citri Mobile lists Face ID repair at S$90. Three shops on this list (Mobile Life, Citri Mobile and LYK Repair) take part in Apple's Independent Repair Provider programme, which gives them access to genuine Apple parts, tools and diagnostics for out-of-warranty repairs. That is a middle path between a back-alley panel and the authorised channel. If your phone is still in warranty or covered by AppleCare+, go authorised: A.LAB's own price list marks battery service free in that case.

Which phone repair shops in Singapore are open on Sundays and late in the evening?

Most of them, which is the quiet advantage independents hold over the authorised channel. Mobile Life runs the longest hours on this list, 10.30am to 9.30pm every day including public holidays, across Queenstown (171 Stirling Road #01-1117), Serangoon (23 Serangoon Central #04-K6 at NEX), Bishan (9 Bishan Place #04-K1 at Junction 8) and Yishun (Northpoint City #02-154 South Wing). Citri Mobile, LYK Repair and BreakFixNow all run 11am to 9pm daily, and BreakFixNow is not only in Bugis: its own site lists counters at Ang Mo Kio Central and Westgate too (Westgate opens at noon), and a new one at Parkway Parade from 1 October 2026 that replaces the old Bedok Mall counter. myhalo at Bugis Junction #03-25/26 opens daily but closes earlier, at 8pm. The two exceptions are worth planning around: iDevice Repair Centre at 6 Harper Road #05-02 is weekdays only, 9.30am to 7pm, so a Saturday board fault waits until Monday; and A.LAB has no walk-in shop at all, working instead by islandwide pickup and delivery, with its phone line staffed Monday to Friday 9am to 6pm. If you crack a screen on a Sunday evening, the practical list is Mobile Life, Citri, LYK and BreakFixNow.

Do any phone repair shops in Singapore offer student discounts?

Two on this list do, and they work differently enough that the better one depends on your bill. Citri Mobile gives students from any university 5% off all phone repairs and 10% off all laptop and MacBook repairs, with the phone discount capped at S$15 and the laptop one at S$30; James Cook University staff and students get the higher tier at 10% off phones and 20% off laptops. A valid student or staff card is required in-store, the discount comes off Citri's nett quoted price, and it cannot be stacked with other promotions. Mobile Life takes a flat S$5 off a phone repair with a minimum spend of S$50, and separately gives students S$10 more on a trade-in and S$10 off a refurbished phone, but it asks for a social-media follow as well as the student card, at any of its four outlets. Do the arithmetic on your actual job: on a S$135 screen, Citri's 5% is S$6.75 and Mobile Life's flat S$5 is less; on a S$455 genuine screen, Citri's 5% hits its S$15 cap and still beats S$5; and on a laptop repair Citri's 10% to 20% is in a different league. Neither is a limited-time promotion; both are standing schemes.

How much is an iPhone screen repair in Singapore if I have AppleCare+?

A flat S$42, which is the single biggest price difference on this page and the reason it is worth checking your coverage before you walk into any shop. A.LAB, an Apple Authorised Service Provider, publishes Apple's Singapore accidental-damage service fees: with AppleCare+, a screen or back-glass repair is S$42 per incident and any other accidental damage is S$148 per incident, on every iPhone model. Set that against S$455 for a genuine iPhone 15 Pro screen or S$575 for a 17 Pro Max out of warranty and the gap is roughly ten to fourteen times. Battery service is also free while the phone is in warranty or covered by AppleCare+, against S$145 to S$175 out of warranty. Two practical points. First, AppleCare+ accidental-damage cover is unlimited in incidents but each one carries its own fee, so a second cracked screen is another S$42 rather than free. Second, a repair at a non-authorised shop can void what is left of your Apple coverage on the parts affected, so if you are still covered, going to an independent for a S$135 panel is usually the more expensive decision, not the cheaper one. Check Settings, General, About for your coverage before you decide.
