Apple has started selling repair parts for iPhone 16 and 16 Pro phones in its self service repair shop. This includes replacements of commonly damaged parts such as cameras, screens and back glass, and follows the release of official Apple iPhone 16 repair manuals in September, such as MacRumors grades.
A replacement camera set will cost you $169 for the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus or $249 for the 16 Pro and Pro Max. And new screens range from $279 to $379, depending on the model. Batteries cost $99 or, for the 16 Pro phones, $119. And if you don't have the tools, you can always rent one of Apple's heavy-duty, specialized repair kits for $49.
Performing an iPhone repair yourself isn't as risky as it once was, thanks to Apple's gradual shift toward repairability. It's also generally cheaper than paying someone else, especially if you can get your hands on used replacement parts, something Apple now officially supports. More affordable third-party components, such as batteries and displays, may also be a viable option soon, after the company said it will offer them better support this year.
