A clear, up-to-date breakdown of iPhone screen replacement costs in Singapore.
📑 本页内容

A cracked or unresponsive iPhone screen is one of the most common repairs we see — and one of the easiest to overpay for. This guide breaks down what an iPhone screen replacement actually costs in Singapore in 2026, what drives the price up or down, and how to tell a fair quote from an inflated one. All figures below are Esmond Service Centre's own current starting prices; your exact cost is confirmed by a free diagnostic before any work begins.

How Much Does iPhone Screen Replacement Cost in Singapore?

Most iPhone screen repairs in Singapore fall between S$78 (OEM) and S$127+ (original-quality). The two biggest factors are your model (older LCD models are cheaper than newer OLED Pro models) and whether you choose an OEM screen or an original-quality screen. Here are our current starting prices by model:

iPhone ModelOEM Screen (from)Estimated Time
iPhone 6 / 6s / SE (1st Gen)From $7830 – 45 mins
iPhone 7 / 8 SeriesFrom $7830 – 45 mins
iPhone X / XR / XSFrom $7830 – 45 mins
iPhone 11 / 12 / 13 SeriesFrom $9530 – 45 mins
iPhone 14 / 15 / 16 SeriesFrom $10830 – 45 mins

Prefer an original-quality screen with full calibration? Those start from S$127 and take a little longer (about 2–3 hours). For the live service page and to book, see iPhone screen repair Singapore.

Why Newer iPhones Cost More to Repair

Older iPhones (6, 7, 8, and the first SE) use LCD screens, which are widely available and inexpensive — hence the S$78 starting point. From the iPhone X onward, Apple switched many models to OLED, and the Pro and Pro Max models use higher-grade OLED panels with thinner bezels and more delicate assemblies. That is why an iPhone 14, 15 or 16 screen starts higher, at S$108 for OEM. The display technology, not just the size, is what moves the price.

What Affects Your iPhone Screen Replacement Cost?

  • Model and display type: LCD (older) is cheaper than OLED (iPhone X onward); Pro and Pro Max panels cost the most.
  • OEM vs original-quality screen: OEM starts from S$78; original-quality starts from S$127. We always tell you which you are quoted for.
  • Extent of damage: a cracked outer glass with a working display is a straightforward swap; if the touch layer, OLED or internal connectors are also damaged, that affects the part needed.
  • True Tone and Face ID: on some models, non-original screens can affect True Tone behaviour; Face ID itself is unaffected by a screen swap done correctly.
  • Where you go: walk-in independent specialists are typically more affordable than out-of-warranty Apple pricing, provided you choose a reputable shop with a warranty.

OEM vs Original iPhone Screen: Which Should You Choose?

The biggest single lever on price is the screen grade. Here is how the two options compare:

FeatureOriginal-Quality ScreenOEM Screen
Starting PriceFrom S$127From $78
Repair Duration2 to 3 hours (calibration)30 to 45 minutes
Touch SensitivityIdentical to original Apple screenSlightly less responsive on some models
System Warning MessageNo warnings after installationAn "Unable to verify display" notice may appear (an iOS security feature)
Warranty90 Days90 Days

If you want the closest match to the factory display and plan to keep the phone for years, an original-quality screen is worth it. If you are on a budget or the phone is older, a good OEM screen restores full function for less. Either way, insist on a warranty — we back both with 90 days.

Is It Worth Repairing Your iPhone Screen?

For most iPhones, yes. A screen repair from S$78–S$127 is a small fraction of a new iPhone, and it restores the device completely. Replacement only starts to make sense when the phone is very old, the battery is also failing, and there is additional internal damage. A free diagnostic is the fastest way to know: we will tell you honestly if a repair is the smart choice or not. If your battery is also weak, see our iPhone battery replacement cost guide.

常见 问题

How much does it cost to replace an iPhone screen in Singapore? +
It typically costs from S$78 for an OEM screen up to S$127 or more for an original-quality screen, depending on your iPhone model. Older LCD models (iPhone 6–8) are the cheapest; newer OLED Pro models cost the most.
How much is an iPhone 14, 15 or 16 screen replacement? +
For the iPhone 14, 15 and 16 series, OEM screen replacement starts from S$108, with original-quality screens available from S$127. Your exact price depends on the specific model and is confirmed by a free diagnostic.
Why is an OEM screen cheaper than an original one? +
An OEM screen starts from S$78 versus S$127 for an original-quality screen. OEM panels are more affordable and restore full function, but on some models touch can be slightly less responsive and an "Unable to verify display" notice may appear. Both carry a 90-day warranty.
How long does an iPhone screen replacement take? +
An OEM screen swap usually takes about 30–45 minutes. An original-quality screen takes longer — around 2–3 hours — because of the calibration process.
Does replacing the screen affect Face ID or True Tone? +
A correctly performed screen replacement does not damage Face ID. True Tone, however, can be affected by non-original screens on some models; we will let you know what to expect for your specific iPhone.
Is there a warranty on the screen repair? +
Yes. Both OEM and original-quality iPhone screen replacements at Esmond Service Centre come with a 90-day warranty covering the workmanship and the part.
Is the diagnostic free? +
Yes. We provide a free, no-obligation diagnostic and confirm the exact price before any work begins, so there are no hidden fees.
Is it cheaper to repair or replace my iPhone? +
For almost all iPhones, repairing the screen (from S$78–S$127) is far cheaper than buying a new device. Replacement only makes sense for very old phones with multiple failing components, which a free diagnostic can confirm.
Where can I get my iPhone screen repaired? +
Esmond Service Centre has two branches — Alexandra (ARC) and Sin Ming (Midview City) — both open Monday to Saturday. You can walk in for a free diagnostic or WhatsApp us first at (65) 8828 8180.
