1) LCD Replacement: When users accidentally drop their iPhone, the first thing that comes to mind is whether the screen is cracked or damaged. The worst kept secret of iPhone or any other smartphone for that matter is the vulnerability of its front glass. Although some of us cover the screen with a protective case and tempered glass, most users still prefer not to use a screen or cover for fear of affecting touch sensitivity. For this reason, the most common type of iPhone repair is LCD screen replacement.

2) Charging Port Replacement: iPhone Lightning port replacement is the next most common repair due to excessive use leading to wear and tear. In addition, some users plug and unplug their charging port in the wrong direction, causing the internal pin to bend.

If your phone gets wet, it's hard to tell what kind of damage it has until it's opened and diagnostic tests are run.

A: Swelling can be categorized into two different groups: solid and gas. Batteries are package in the factory so that the air around the battery is airtight and ensures it does not leak. After prolonged usage and charging, the gas build-up gradually but gets trapped by the battery's wrapper. This results in the battery swelling up.

A: Between the two types, solid swelling is more hazardous as the solid material is more prone to explode due to chemical reaction. On the other hand, gas swelling is not as dangerous; however, pressure or overheating may cause the device's malfunction if it is not dealt with immediately.

A: Charging as well as discharging your phone at room temperature can keep the battery at good health. To address the elephant in the room, the battery's quality also depends on the production line whether proper procedure had been put in place during the manufacturing process.
