I was using my iPhone not too long ago and the unthinkable happened – I had too many things in my hands and I dropped it.<\/p>\n
The screen shattered into tiny pieces right before my eyes. I dropped it once or twice before and I guess this was the last straw. I knew I was going to need to get it fixed as soon as possible. Which begged the question – should I get an iPhone repair near me<\/a><\/u> or should I head out a little further to the Apple Store and get it fixed by a \u201cgenius\u201d?<\/p>\n
I thought about the kind of service I wanted, and I wanted someone really sympathetic to my problem to fix my phone screen. I didn\u2019t want to deal with a large corporation focused on fixing my iPhone and getting me out the door because my device meant a lot to me.<\/p>\n
I did some research and looked into third-party repair shops near me. A lot of them had really good reviews on Google Maps and Yelp about techs that were friendly and patient and took time to answer all of their customers\u2019 questions.<\/p>\n
I wanted to know how to prevent my screen from getting broken another time so I wouldn\u2019t have to pay for iPhone repair near me again and I had some other questions about general maintenance.<\/p>\n
I also didn\u2019t want to be up-sold on stuff I might not have needed – I just wanted my phone fixed. I\u2019m not saying Apple would have definitely done this, but after reading online reviews about the local store that I ended up choosing, I knew <\/em>these techs wouldn\u2019t try to upsell me.<\/p>\n
I wanted a company that would be personable with me and I wanted to work with techs that would remember me and my iPhone in case another part of it broke in the future.<\/p>
