Apple has priced an iPhone XR repair at a similar level to the iPhone 8 Plus, which seems a fair basis given that both models share a larger LCD screen.

Apple’s iPhone XR comes out this week and ahead of the launch, Apple unveiled the repair costs. A screen fix will cost $199 while “other damage” costs $399.
