City phones break in city ways
Life in West Town is hard on a phone in specific ways, and this is worth knowing.
Winter. Cold can temporarily cut battery life, and Apple says a phone can shut off in very cold conditions. If your phone dies on a walk down Damen in January and recovers indoors, that may be an aging battery showing its age, not a dead phone.
Slush and rain. A wet port can trigger a liquid alert or a moisture warning. Let it dry fully before you charge it. Our guide to a phone dropped in water covers what to do.
Sidewalks. Concrete is much harder on glass than carpet. A corner drop on the pavement is a common way to crack a screen or a back, and a good case earns its keep.
We will tell you if it isn't worth it
If your phone is under warranty or covered by AppleCare, you will hear that from us, and we will send you to Apple when that is the better deal. If the repair costs more than the phone is worth, we will say so before you spend anything.
