Whether your iPhone screen is cracked, your battery is struggling to last the day, or your handset has taken an unexpected swim, Pocket Geek Bournemouth by CrC Repair® is here to get it fixed fast. Our Bournemouth technicians are trained specifically on Apple devices and carry out iPhone repairs across the full range of models — from iPhone 8 right through to the latest iPhone 17 series.

Most common iPhone repairs are completed the same day, often while you wait. And unlike many repair shops, we offer a choice of parts — including Genuine Apple Service Pack components for customers who want their iPhone to remain fully verified by iOS after the repair.

This is something that sets us apart from the majority of iPhone repair shops in Bournemouth — and it matters more than most people realise.

From iPhone 12 onwards, Apple introduced parts pairing technology. This means that when a non-genuine screen, battery, or camera component is fitted to your iPhone, iOS detects the change and displays warning messages such as “Unable to verify this iPhone has a genuine Apple display” or “Unable to verify this iPhone has a genuine Apple battery.” These messages appear permanently in your settings and can affect Face ID functionality, True Tone display performance, and battery health reporting.

At Pocket Geek Bournemouth by CrC Repair®, we are able to supply and fit Genuine Apple Service Pack parts — the same components Apple uses in its own repairs. When a Genuine Apple Service Pack screen or battery is fitted to your iPhone, iOS recognises it as authentic. No warning messages. No functionality limitations. Everything reads as “Genuine” in your settings, exactly as it would from Apple directly.

What this means for you:

• Your iPhone’s True Tone display continues to function correctly after a screen repair
• Battery health reporting remains fully accurate after a battery replacement
• Face ID and other biometric functions are unaffected
• Your settings show “Genuine Apple Display” and “Genuine Apple Battery” — not a warning
• Your device remains fully iOS-verified with no permanent alerts

Genuine Apple Service Pack parts are available at a premium over our standard quality parts. Both options are available at our Bournemouth store, and our technicians will explain the difference clearly so you can make the right choice for your device and your budget before any work begins.

A cracked iPhone screen is the most common repair we carry out. Whether it’s a hairline fracture or a fully shattered display, our Bournemouth technicians can restore your iPhone’s screen to full working order. We offer both standard quality replacement screens and Genuine Apple Service Pack displays — ask our team which option is right for your model. iPhone screen repairs are covered by our lifetime warranty.

If your iPhone is draining faster than it used to, shutting down unexpectedly, or your battery health is showing below 80%, a battery replacement will restore your phone’s performance and longevity. We offer both standard replacement batteries and Genuine Apple Service Pack batteries — the latter ensuring your battery health reporting remains fully accurate in iOS. Battery replacements are covered by our one-year repair warranty.

An iPhone that won’t charge, only charges intermittently, or requires the cable to be held at a specific angle typically has a worn or damaged Lightning or USB-C charging port. Our technicians can clean, repair, or replace the port to restore reliable charging. Charging port repairs carry a one-year warranty.

The glass back on modern iPhones is particularly vulnerable to cracking and shattering. Beyond the cosmetic impact, a cracked back can compromise water resistance and leave internal components exposed. Our Bournemouth team can replace the back glass across a wide range of iPhone models, restoring both the look and the integrity of your device. Back glass repairs carry a one-year warranty.

iPhones are water resistant — but not waterproof. Liquid damage can occur even on newer models, particularly after prolonged exposure or submersion beyond rated depths. If your iPhone has stopped working, is behaving erratically, or shows signs of liquid damage, bring it into our Bournemouth store as soon as possible. The sooner we assess it, the better the chance of a full recovery.

Blurry photos, a cracked rear lens, a front camera that won’t open, or Portrait Mode that simply won’t activate — these are all camera faults our Bournemouth team repair regularly. Whether it’s a lens replacement or a full camera module swap, we’ll get your iPhone shooting clearly again. Camera repairs carry a one-year warranty.

Muffled call audio, a crackling earpiece, a loudspeaker that distorts at volume, or a microphone that others can’t hear — these are common iPhone faults we resolve quickly at our Bournemouth store. Covered by our one-year repair warranty.

Face ID issues are among the more complex iPhone faults we deal with. If Face ID has stopped working after a screen repair elsewhere, or has developed a fault independently, our technicians can assess the issue and advise on the best course of action. Note that Face ID repair outcomes depend on the specific model and fault — our team will be transparent with you before any work begins.

If your iPhone is freezing, crashing, stuck in a boot loop, or behaving unexpectedly, the issue may be software rather than hardware. Our technicians can run a full diagnostic to identify and resolve software faults without losing your data where possible.

We believe in transparent, upfront pricing. Before any work begins, you’ll receive a clear quote with no hidden fees and no surprises. Pricing varies by model, fault type, and choice of parts — standard quality or Genuine Apple Service Pack. Pop into Pocket Geek Bournemouth by CrC Repair® or use our online booking tool for a fast estimate.

Most common iPhone repairs — including screen replacements and battery swaps — are completed within one to two hours at Pocket Geek Bournemouth by CrC Repair®. More complex faults such as water damage assessments or back glass repairs may take longer, and our team will give you a realistic timeframe before any work begins.

No appointment is necessary — walk-ins are always welcome. If you’d prefer to secure your slot and avoid any wait, you can book online in advance.

Standard quality replacement parts are high-quality components that restore full functionality to your iPhone. Genuine Apple Service Pack parts are the same components Apple uses in its own repairs — when fitted, iOS recognises them as authentic, meaning no warning messages appear in your settings and features such as True Tone, battery health reporting, and Face ID continue to function exactly as intended. Both options are available at our Bournemouth store and our team will explain the difference before any work begins.

Face ID is tied to the original front module of your iPhone rather than the screen itself, so a screen replacement carried out correctly should not affect Face ID. However, if Face ID issues arise after a repair carried out elsewhere, our technicians can assess the fault and advise accordingly.

We strongly recommend backing up your iPhone before any repair as a precaution. Our technicians are trained to handle devices with care and will never intentionally access your personal data.

Screen repairs on iPhones are covered by a lifetime warranty. All other iPhone repairs — including battery replacements, charging port repairs, back glass repairs, and camera repairs — carry a one-year warranty. Faults caused by physical damage or liquid ingress after the repair are not covered. See our warranty page for the full terms.

Yes — for most common faults including screen replacements and battery swaps, we can carry out the repair while you wait. Our Bournemouth team will confirm at the point of diagnosis whether a while-you-wait repair is available for your specific model and fault.

Yes — we regularly see iPhones that have been worked on by other repair shops and subsequently developed issues. Our technicians will assess the device, identify any problems with the previous repair, and advise on the best course of action.
