I never realized how much I used the thing until now! It fell out of my pocket at work, and shattered after a 4 foot drop. My boss is looking into reimbursement, which would be cool. Not sure if it'll end up covering the cost of repairing it (just the screen is busted), or if they'll replace it. It would be rad if they covered a brand new replacement! I've got an iPhone 5S, so I'm long overdue for an upgrade.
If I can't get reimbursed, I'm torn between trying to repair the 5S or just upgrading to a 7. An upgrade would be awesome, since the 16gb 5S I have now is frustrating (I'm ALWAYS running out of room on it...)
I'm also contemplating doing the repair myself. I've seen screen repair kits for $25 or so, which wouldn't be bad. My old iPhones (the original silver back and a 4) still work. I'd like to keep a working 5S in my collection as well!
Has anyone ever changed a screen on an iPhone 5S? If I decide to do it myself, I could probably use some pointers.
