The charging port replacement and repair cost for the latest iPhone models ranges between Rs 4,000 to Rs 8,000. iPhones launched before 2025 have lower repair costs. If your smartphone is under warranty of AppleCare+, you may have to pay a lesser amount.
Keep in mind that the iPhone warranty covers hardware defects for only one year. This means if the charging port stops working due to a manufacturing defect, it can be repaired under warranty.
However, if the charging port is damaged due to misuse, accidents, or water exposure, the one-year warranty will not cover the repair.
India has a large number of iPhone users, and sales of these smartphones are rapidly increasing day by day. There are over 13 to 15 million iPhones in India as of now.
However, in small cities and remote areas, iPhone service centers are not well established. As a result, customers sometimes have to make a lot of effort to get their devices repaired.
I have checked many websites about the iphone repair, and they have mentioned the old price there, or on some websites, prices are quite higher than the current price.

Here are a few common habits that you may have done that led to your charger port malfunctioning
- Using third-party and duplicate cables – The charging port will last longer if you use the original cable with it, as using cheap quality and unbranded cables can loosen the charging port over time.
- Rough Charging habits – I have seen people gaming or using their iphone while charging it. This puts pressure on the charging port and cable, and by doing this again and again, you will damage your charging port. So it’s better to avoid using the phone while charging it.
- Moisture and water damage – Make sure your smartphone is water resistant, not waterproof, if you have used your phone in rain or water before charging it. Clean the ports properly, and then connect your charger, and it can severely damage the phone.
Things you need to do before the repair.
If you live in a small city, there’s a high chance that an Apple Store might not be available in your area. In such cases, you’ll likely have to visit a local repair shop.
If the technician there is unable to fix your smartphone, they may send it to an authorized Apple service center. Before going forward with any repairs, make sure to ask for the estimated cost of the charging port, including the repair cost. Some local technicians earn a commission for referring repairs to other stores, which could increase your repair expense.
Final words
About 80% of the time, charging ports are replaced, not repaired. If your device is not charging, it might be due to clogged dust and lint accumulated inside the charging port. Check before going to a repair shop; you might fix it on your own.
FAQ
How much time does it take to repair the charging port?
If the technician is not busy, then I will take about 30 minutes to 1 hour to open the phone and replace the charging port with a new one.
Is there a duplicate charging port in the market?
Yes, it might be possible to earn money. Some shops do this; they use cheap, low-quality products for repairing iPhones. Make sure to check the iPhone and charge it at least 2%-5% before leaving the shop.
