the importance of good quality and quick repairs for your iphone - AppleFix hamilton New Zealand


Thank You for coming. We are gonna make some history together today.” On January 9, 2007, Steve Jobs started the event of iPhone launch by this line. “So, we are gonna reinvent the phone” – he added later and iPhone surely did reinvent the phone. Even today, 9 years later, launch of the first iPhone is the best and most iconic phone launch ever. iPhone has evolved with time and the latest iPhone X launched on September 12 last year. From a screen of 3.5 inches with a resolution 320*480 to  5.8 inches of Super Retina HD Display, iPhone surely has traveled a long way. Keeping aside all the facts about its perfect built and friendly software, iPhone is prone to bugs that have been pointed from many grand platforms like this.


Apple loves incorporating with new technology and in the process, there are times when users face problems related to that. The latest example is – OLED Panel in the display of iPhone X. Its users have reported delayed responses in the display screen. The first gesture of any normal iPhone user after facing bugs like this would be getting the problem fixed by the official Apple Support.

The problem with Official Apple Support is mostly limited to huge repairing costs. Apple’s warranty service also suffers from a lot of terms and conditions. For instance, any accidental damages are not covered by the warranty. And, outside the warranty period, the repairing bill for even tiny problems turns out to be really heavy. Many users often make the mistake of going to getting their iPhone repaired at some low-class repairing centers, only to regret later. This severely harms the lifetime and performance of your iPhone. So, the obvious question is: Why is quality of iPhone Repairs important?

Why should quality of the replaced parts of your iPhone be a major concern?

iPhone has been known for its sturdy design and secure iOS. The basic reason behind this is the quality of hardware components with its in-sync software components. Taking your iPhone to an inexperienced technician will hamper the lifetime and the standard of your iPhone. Only reputed stores have the required tools and experienced technicians with the skillset to fix any hardware or software bugs that your iPhone might be facing.

AppleFix has 20 years of experience in the field of device repair services. Our expert technicians can solve any problems that your iPhone might be facing.

To ensure the durability of a replaced part, it is important to use original and good quality parts. Any electronic device is prone to all kinds of hardware and software damages but the need for quality repairs is more pressing in iPhones and Apple Devices. The primary reason for this is – overwhelming prices of iPhones. In this technology-dependent era, timely-repairs are another major concern. We, at AppleFix, understand this and our efficient technicians repair all kinds of iPhone Repairs within a day without charging any extra charges.
