Why the Cost Makes Sense

Back glass is bonded to the frame over wireless charging coils and antennas with industrial adhesive.
The repair requires full disassembly, precision CO₂ laser equipment, careful cleanup, reassembly, and multi-point testing.
That time, tooling, and risk—not the price of glass—drives the bill.
