Well, first of all, it is necessary to consider the costs. If you take your iPhone into a repair shop, then you have a guarantee that your broken iPhone will be installed professionally, but! There is no guarantee that your data will be saved, and you'll pay - except the man who makes all fees, transportation costs and parts. This can add to the price of the new iPhone.
There is another option. If a broken phone still works, you can transfer to your computer and try to repair it yourself. It is not as difficult as it may seem. You can find all the parts of the network and the Internet you can find tons of "how to" manuals and documentation, and repair. Of course, you have to dirty their hands, but can be fun fixing iPhone - plus they have a guarantee that you have used the best parts and I did, but will save you money.
Of course, if your iPhone is broken beyond repair, you should be prepared to buy a new one. The good news is that you can exchange your broken iPhone for a new, and pay the difference. Typically, this means about $ 199 for the basic model. In addition to cost a bit more - but at least you can get the top of the iPhone without paying its full!
