What To Do When You Break Your Smartphone?
As you pick the smartphone you just dropped from the pavement, your mind races. You can't afford a new one. How will you check your Wechat (微信)messages? Here are some of the things you can try if you break your phone.
1.
Smartphones are held together with screws(螺丝) and pins, which means in many cases, if you're handy enough, you can easily fix them. 2.
One site in particular, ifixit.com, offers guides for replacing and fixing nearly every part of a wide variety of smartphones, ranging from the very first iPhone all the way to the iPhone 7Plus.
Bring it to a repair shop
Smartphone repair shops are all over the place these days. 3.Depending on the damage to your phone, the price for repairs can range anywhere from﹩29 to more than﹩250.
Try selling your damaged phone
So your phone is damaged, and you don't want to spend the money to get it fixed. Why not try selling it? 4..Gazelle, for example, will pay you﹩40 for a 16GB iPhone 5s with a broken display, while Glyde will pay you﹩142 for an iPhone 6 with a cracked screen.
Buy a refurbished(翻新的) phone
So you've sold your broken smartphone and now you've got some extra spending cash, but it's still nowhere near enough to cover the full cost of a new smartphone, which can run more than $600. 5..
Well, if preowned(二手的)phones don't bother you, you can buy a refurbished handset from any number of carriers or stores at a modest discount.
A.What can you do?
B.Get insurance next time.
C.Try repairing it yourself.
D.So why not see if one of these stores can fix your busted(损坏的) handset?
E.In fact，there are entire websites designed to help you repair your own phone.
F.How much you get for your damaged phone depends on the model and what kind of issues it has.
G.And if they don't want your phone and you want to make sure that it's at least recycled，they'll do that too.
