Apple accessories are well-known for the cost they bear. Things that are complementary with other brands are usually not the same when it comes to Apple.

Well, accessories aren’t the only thing that have the potential to make one dig deep into their pocket. The screen and repair expenses are a reason for worry too.

And a similar issue has arisen where iPhone 12 Pro users have found the screen of their devices cracking.

What’s worse is that you spend $999 for a beast and end up cracking either one of the glasses (rear or the screen) easily.

That’s exactly what users have been reporting on the forums lately which is strange for a device this premium.

Upon digging it appears that the iPhone 12 Pro screens have been cracking in totally random events.

When approached, Apple care the executives say they haven’t come across this issue on a wide scale.

Since Apple doesn’t repair broken glasses, getting a replacement for the iPhone 12 Pro screen cracking is the only option left with the affected users.

If you happen to have the AppleCare+ then you are only required to pay $29 otherwise it’s a hefty $279 bill waiting for you.
