Since the Apple iPhone 6S and Apple iPhone 6S superseded the original iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus in late 2015, we’ve had people asking if they could repair them. While it’s often the case that parts and expertise for new phones take some time to appear after launch, we got up to speed quickly with the skills required, and our contacts in the supply chain meant we had a reliable source of replacement screens and other parts, ensuring quick repair turnaround
.
While the 6S has a smaller 4.7″ screen and the 6S Plus has a larger 5.5″ display, we’re able to supply and fit either type of replacement display from our store in the city centre of Dundee.

This is an overview of the work that goes into replacing the screen assembly on an Apple iPhone 6 (4.7″). This repair was carried out in our Dundee repair centre (within the Disc Depot shop in Union Street, just off the Nethergate).
You can see that this iPhone has a broken screen, which occurred when the customer dropped their phone. (Glass can also be smashed in this way when the iPhone is hit against a hard surface).
Hi again!
This week’s look behind the scenes of a Disc Depot repair is the repair of a faulty AMD/ATI graphics chip (model: 216-0809000) on an Apple MacBook Pro (A1286 15″ 2011 version).
As you can see on the first photograph, this MacBook Pro isn’t showing anything on the screen- it’s totally blank. As usually happens with problems due to the chip itself, we replace the 2011 version of the chip with a newer upgraded- and fixed- 2013 replacement version of the same chip.
To show you what’s involved in having your computer, tablet or smartphone repaired, we’ve decided to put some jobs online, starting with this iPad Air being fixed in our Union Street store in Dundee city centre.
These photos were all taken while our technician carried out the actual repair on his workbench. We’ve included the important stages here (albeit without giving away all our clever repair secrets and techniques!)
