An iPhone 11 launched at $699 and goes for about $175 refurbished today — 75% of its value gone. That refurbished price is the number every repair on this page is measured against, because it is what replacing it actually costs.
Repairs on this phone run from about $50 at the cheap end to around $130 at the expensive one, across 8 common faults. Anything near the top of that range is a serious fraction of what the device is worth.
Security updates are expected to have ended around 2026, which caps what any repair here can buy you. Our calculator returns replace for this device regardless of the repair price, and that is deliberate.
If you are replacing it anyway, the iPhone 12 costs about $260 refurbished — $85 more than a like-for-like iPhone 11.
