Should You Repair or Replace Your Phone?
A simple way to decide whether a repair is worth it.
Repairs often make sense when the phone is still supported with updates and the repair costs a fraction of a replacement.
Questions to ask
- Will the phone keep getting security updates for as long as you plan to use it?
- How does the repair cost compare to what the phone is worth once repaired?
- Is it a one-off problem (cracked screen) or a sign of more problems to come?
- Would you otherwise buy a new phone soon anyway?
