cracked screen

[craigmelson]

Hi!

Anyone know how much Sony will charge to repair a Z3 with a cracked glass/digitiser ? ,My own fault, I dropped it. LCD is fine, just cracked digitser and glass.

Got told to send it to the repair centre so they can assess/quote for repair, but does anyone know how much they'd charge (roughly)?

I don't want to lose my mob for a week only to be told they'll charge lots of money to fix it whe  i get ity fixed elsewhere for cheaper and quicker!

£220+ at least

Based on my region, adjust for exchange rate

Sorry, my price quoted is for digitiser + lcd.
Not sure on digitiser only as i think the unit is glued together.

Be warned of one fact though,
Any repair by anyone except sony will not guarantee the ip rating anymore.

what is an ip rating?

[Thommo]

Waterproof and dust proof rating

IP certification are for the waterproof and dust proof ability. 

The phone has IPX8 means it can be submerged into fresh water for 30 minutes and should keep working if the 2 flaps were closed properly. 

IP6x means no dust sand or enything can enter the device.
