In a report that might hurt a lot of small companies doing iPhone screen repairs, Macrumors says Apple will now start repairing iPhone screen for $149.

Screen replacement has always seemed expensive to me, especially since the glass is supposed to be so great but I take my phone everywhere and have replaced about 6 screens. Yeah, yeah. My iPhone 5s needs a replacement but since it isn't cracked, I have been milking it due to the cost. Sadly, $149 is actually competitive.

MacRumors heard from a tipster this morning that the new repair policy had been implemented and the changes have since been confirmed in a forum post from iPhone repair site Quick iFix. The repairs are available for cracked displays as well as screens that experience multitouch issues.

Apple is expected to roll out additional in-house repair options in July, offering repairs of the iPhone's camera, sleep/wake buttons, and logic boards. Additional changes to AppleCare are also reportedly in the works, with Apple rumored to be switching to a subscription based plan tied to customers rather than individual devices.
