Phone & Device Guides

Apple prices the iPhone 15 rear camera as one $169 service ($99 with AppleCare+), with no per-lens or published front-camera fee. FixUpPhone quotes camera work after assessment.

Apple’s $169 back glass fee for the iPhone 15 — $29 with AppleCare+, $399 if the screen is cracked too — and the five factors that decide whether an Apple repair or an assessed FixUpPhone quote is the better route.

Most iPhone 15 Pro Max Bluetooth failures are accessory, pairing or car problems — this guide runs the cross-test and the free accessory-first ladder first, then explains the greyed-out switch and both-radios-failed signs that mean a hardware assessment, at Apple’s $699 tier or $99 with AppleCare+.

Most No Service faults are carrier, account or SIM problems that cost nothing to fix — work the free carrier-first ladder first, and only treat No Service that survives a known-good SIM and a network reset, or began after a drop or liquid, as hardware.
