iPhone 15 Pro Max Back Glass Replacement in 2025, Shocking Costs, Repair Times & What Apple Won’t Tell You

The iPhone 15 Pro Max is very solid and strong; it’s built with a titanium frame, but its glass back is still vulnerable.

A single drop can spiderweb the rear panel, especially near the camera housing.

And even with MagSafe and Apple’s reinforced design, the large size of the Pro Max makes it more likely to crack if it hits the ground at the wrong angle.

iPhone 15 Pro Max Back Glass Repair Cost

For the iPhone 15 Pro Max, local repair shops typically charge $149–$189, depending on whether you choose aftermarket or OEM glass.

Apple’s out-of-warranty pricing is much higher, usually $249–$299 before tax.

  • Aftermarket Back Glass: Affordable, durable, may show as “Unknown Part” in settings.
  • OEM Glass (Apple): Factory original, sometimes required for resale, but far more expensive.

MagSafe and Wireless Charging

Because the iPhone 15 Pro Max uses a MagSafe ring and wireless charging coil directly under the glass, repairs must be done with precision.

If the coil is misaligned or damaged during replacement, you may lose MagSafe charging or see reduced efficiency. Professional repair ensures the charging system stays intact.

Symptoms of Back Glass Damage

It’s not always just about how it looks. Cracked back glass can lead to:

  • Sharp glass shards that make the phone unsafe to hold.
  • Cracks spreading into the camera area, causing lens haze or blurred photos.
  • Wireless charging failures if the coil is damaged or misaligned.
  • Weakened water resistance after impact damage.

Repair Time and Warranty

At a trusted local shop, you can expect a back glass replacement to take between 2 to 4 hours using a laser separation process.

Unlike DIY kits, professional repairs restore both safety and functionality.

At iMobile Repair Center, every iPhone back glass repair includes a limited lifetime warranty on parts and labor.
