The iPhone 15 Plus came out in 2023, with a 6.7 inch Super Retina XDR OLED display and the A16 Bionic chip. Charging is over USB-C and it unlocks with Face ID. There is an aluminium frame, and it is rated IP68. The same two vertical cameras as the iPhone 15 in a larger 6.7 inch body. The one sold in Ireland is A3094.

What this fixes
The faults a dead device diagnostic puts right.
- It shows the logo and restarts, over and overA boot loop. Software, storage or board, and they are not the same repair.
- It only works while plugged inAlmost always the battery, and one of the easier outcomes.
- It got hot and then diedWorth mentioning. Heat before failure narrows down where to look considerably.
- It works only with the charger connectedThe battery is finished, and that is the cheapest of the possible causes.
- It died and will not respond to any button combinationCould be the battery, the port or the board. Guessing here is what costs people money.
- It stopped after an updateMore likely software than hardware, and usually the most recoverable outcome.
Before you spend anything
Is it definitely a power fault?
A dead phone is the one case where guessing is expensive, because every possible cause has a different price.
IfIt works only while plugged into power
That is the battery, and it is the cheapest thing this can be.
IfIt went dead after getting wet
This is a liquid damage assessment, not a dead device diagnostic. Do not charge it in the meantime.
IfIt went in water first
Liquid damage takes priority. Do not charge it and do not keep trying to power it on.
IfIt was dropped just before
That changes where we look first, so say it at the counter.
IfYour data is the priority
Tell us before we start. Some routes preserve everything and some do not, and knowing your priority decides which one we try first.
If you are not sure which of these you have, that is what the free diagnostic is for. It costs nothing and it is the step that stops people paying for the wrong repair.
What parts do we fit?
Where Apple supplies a service part for this component, that is what goes in. Where it does not, we fit premium aftermarket and say so. Which of the two you are getting is settled before you agree to anything, and the 360-day warranty does not change between them.
We will not describe a part as genuine, original or Apple certified unless that is what is going into your phone. If the honest answer is premium aftermarket, that is what we say at the counter.
What the Free diagnostic includes
- A full diagnostic on the bench, free
- A written answer on what has failed and what it costs
- No further work until you have approved the price
- No fee at all if we cannot fix it
Nothing extra gets done and charged for without you saying yes to it. Where the diagnostic turns up a second fault, the work stops there and you hear the price before it goes any further.
If getting here is the problem, we collect and return across Dublin from Monday to Friday. It costs the same repair price and carries the same 360-day warranty.
How we do it
From the counter to back in your hand.
Free diagnostic
We confirm what has actually failed before anything is ordered or opened. It costs nothing and it is the step that stops people paying for the wrong repair.
You approve the price
You get the exact figure before any work starts. Nothing else happens without asking you first.
The repair is carried out
It stays in the shop. The work is done on our own bench by the technicians who do it every day of the week.
Bench testing
We test what we replaced and everything that sits beside it, because that is where a rushed repair shows up.
Back in your hands
Collected from Drumcondra, or returned to your door if we picked it up. Covered for 360 days.
Before it goes back
What we test every time.
A repair is not finished when the part is fitted. It is finished when the things around it have been checked.
Power draw on the bench
Before the phone is switched on, because a short does more damage the moment it gets power.
Battery and charging circuit
The two most common causes and the two cheapest to put right.
Charge behaviour on a known good supply
Because a failed charger and a failed device look identical from the outside.
Current draw at rest
A board that draws nothing and a board that draws too much are two different faults.
Is anything on the device at risk?
This is hardware work. We do not need to go into your photos, messages or accounts to do it, and we do not.
We do need to switch the device on and use it to test the repair, so we may ask for your passcode. If you would rather not hand it over, tell us and we will show you what we cannot verify without it. Any passcode you give us goes on the paper docket and the docket gets shredded. It is never stored in our system.
Back the device up before any repair. Not because we expect to lose anything, but because a device that has already been dropped is one whose storage has already been shaken, and a backup costs nothing.
What about the water resistance?
After any repair, ours included, work on the assumption that the device is no longer water resistant.
The rating on the box was measured once, on a sealed unit, in controlled conditions. It was never a promise about the device three years later. Adhesive hardens, seals compress and a single drop can break the seal without leaving a mark you would notice.
We reseal with fresh adhesive and it does a real job: rain, splashes and a wet counter are all fine. A submerged phone is not, and we would rather say that plainly than let you find out.
If yours goes near water regularly, say so at the counter and we will tell you what the adhesive covers and what it does not.
The 360-day warranty
Every completed repair is covered for 360 days on the part and the workmanship. If the display we fitted fails, or the fitting was at fault, we put it right at no charge.
What it does not cover is a new accident. A phone dropped again after the repair, fresh physical damage, liquid damage, or a fault in a part we did not touch, all sit outside it. That is the same limit any honest repair warranty has.
No fix, no fee. The diagnostic is free, and if the repair does not happen you pay nothing.
Three ways to get it to us
- Walk in to Drumcondra4 Richmond Road, Dublin 3. No appointment. Mon to Sat 10:00 to 18:00, closed Sunday. Most phone screens and batteries done in 15 to 45 minutes while you wait.
- We collect and returnDoor to door across Dublin, Monday to Friday, usually 2 to 4 working days. The repair takes the same time; the courier is the difference.
- Send it in yourselfPost it to the shop with a tracked, insured service and a note with your number. We cannot cover a parcel in transit, and that is the honest trade-off for the route existing.
Same repair price and the same 360-day warranty on all three. The only thing that changes is how the device travels.

We quote it after a free diagnostic, because the price depends on what we find. No fix, no fee, so if we cannot repair it you pay nothing.
Assessed first, then quoted. If the diagnostic turns up something else, or a part has to be ordered, we tell you before you commit rather than after.
No. The diagnostic is free and there is no fee if we cannot fix it. You get told what has failed and what it costs before anything happens.
Usually not, which is the good news. Batteries and charging faults account for most of them, and both are ordinary repairs. The board is what we check when the cheaper answers have been ruled out.
Often, and tell us that is the priority before we start. Recovering data and repairing a phone are sometimes done in a different order, and choosing wrong can cost you both.
No. If it has looped or failed repeatedly, leave it off. Repeated attempts on a device that is failing under load do not help and occasionally make things worse.
Usually same day. Where a fault only appears under load we sometimes have to leave it running, and we say so at the counter rather than leaving you wondering.
