Prices range from $25 for a basic fix to $65 to $99 for a full replacement. Here is what affects the cost and how to avoid overpaying.
When your iPhone stops charging, the first thing most people want to know is how much it is going to cost. The honest answer is that it depends on what is actually wrong with the port. Most of the time, the problem is just lint packed inside the port blocking the connection. That is a $25 fix. If the port itself is damaged or worn out, a full replacement runs between $65 and $99 depending on your iPhone model. We always diagnose first and tell you the cost before any work starts.

Two shops can charge very different prices for the same repair and both can be legitimate. The main factors are parts quality, the complexity of the repair, and whether the shop offers a warranty. A shop using cheap aftermarket parts might charge less upfront but the port could fail again in a few months. At iMobile we use quality replacement parts and back every repair with a 30 day warranty. We also do not charge for the diagnosis. You find out what is wrong and what it costs before you spend a single dollar.
A lot of people come in thinking they need a full port replacement when all they actually need is a $25 Charging Fix. Lint builds up inside the port over time and stops the cable from making full contact. It looks like a charging problem but the port itself is fine. We check this first every time. If a fix solves it, that is all we charge you. If the port is genuinely damaged with bent pins or corrosion, then we talk about replacement. No one should be paying $75 for a repair that costs $25 to fix.
