We’ve all experienced the distinct horror of dropping our phone and reluctantly turning it over to find something resembling a spiderweb of broken glass. Yes, the smashed iPhone screen is a rite of passage for smartphone owners and the financial sting of getting it fixed is (almost) enough to make you trade in the fragile bloody thing for a hardy model like the trusty Nokia 3315 of our youthful days.

But, alas, broken iPhone screens happen to the best of us and when your time comes, we want to make sure you know all your options for restoring it to its former pristine glory. So, here is our trusty guide to getting your smashed iPhone screen fixed in Melbourne.
