Back Glass Repair
Laser-separated rear glass, without a full housing swap
Expert back glass repair you can trust
On most modern iPhones and Galaxy flagships, the back glass is bonded directly to the metal chassis with industrial adhesive, which is why manufacturers often quote a full housing replacement. We use a precision laser to break down that adhesive bond, so the cracked glass can be removed cleanly without removing the logic board. A color-matched OEM-grade panel is then bonded in place, with the camera lens ring and cutouts aligned exactly. The Qi / MagSafe wireless charging coil and NFC antenna underneath stay untouched and are tested before return.
What's included
- Color-matched OEM-grade rear glass
- Laser adhesive separation (no housing swap)
- Qi / MagSafe wireless charging coil preserved
- Camera lens ring alignment and sealing
- Ultrasonic clean-up of glass fragments
- 30-day parts & labor warranty
What our technicians mean
- Chassis / housing
- The metal frame your phone is built around. Replacing only the glass keeps your original frame and saves money.
- Laser separation
- A laser weakens the glue holding the back glass, so it can be removed cleanly without taking the whole phone apart.
- Qi / MagSafe coil
- The copper coil under the back glass that enables wireless charging. We protect it during repair and test it after.
- NFC antenna
- The short-range antenna used for tap-to-pay (Apple Pay, Google Wallet). It sits near the back glass and is verified after repair.
How the repair works
A simple, transparent process designed to get your device back fast — no appointment required.
Assessment
We check for chassis bends or frame damage and confirm the correct glass and finish for your model.
Laser separation
A calibrated laser breaks down the factory adhesive so the cracked glass releases without heat damage to internals.
Bonding new glass
The new panel is aligned and bonded under pressure for a seamless, factory-flush finish.
Function check
We test wireless charging, MagSafe magnet alignment, NFC (Apple Pay), and camera clarity.
Signs you need a back glass repair
- Cracked or shattered rear glass
- Sharp edges or glass flaking off
- Glass lifting from the chassis
- Wireless or MagSafe charging acting up
- Cracks reaching the camera lens ring
Common questions
Still unsure? Call your nearest Mobile Care location and our team will help.
Is back glass repair cheaper than a full housing swap?
Yes. Laser separation lets us replace just the glass, avoiding the cost of a new chassis and the labor of transferring every internal component.
Will wireless charging and Apple Pay still work?
Yes. The wireless charging coil and NFC antenna stay in place, and we test both before returning your device.
What if my phone's frame is bent?
A bent chassis can stop new glass from bonding flat. We check for this during assessment and will recommend a housing replacement only if it's truly needed.
