Buy genuine iPhone 16e replacement parts directly from Apple
Apple’s Self-Service repair store lets you purchase original replacement parts and the necessary repair tools for fixing your iPhone or Mac yourself. It eliminates one of the hurdles of DIY repairs for Apple devices: finding genuine replacement parts.
The company started the repair program in 2022. Since then, it has updated the store regularly to stock replacement parts for new iPhones and Macs, typically within weeks of them going on sale.
From the repair store, you can order genuine replacement parts for your iPhone 16e. This includes the back glass cover, display, camera, battery, and almost every other important component.

DIY iPhone repairs require expertise
Avoid ordering replacement parts from Apple and attempting a DIY repair on your iPhone 16e to save money. It’s a complex process that demands a good amount of skill and technical know-how. Plus, Apple’s charges for replacement parts are on the expensive side. It wants as much as $99 for an iPhone 16e’s replacement battery, with the display costing $229. You can return the broken part to Apple to receive a credit.
