Today I dropped my iPhone, causing the damage you see on the left side of the “before-after” photos. The “after” part was taken care of by the good people at Smapho Dr., located just across the river from downtown Kumamoto. It cost me a little over 10,000 yen (I have an iPhone 5c) but that was slightly less than the Apple fee. What was even better for me was that I could take it in at 2:30, do a little shopping in the Daiei across the street, and then at 3:00 when I returned it was already done. If you want to be sure to get this kind of service, however, you need to call ahead to check to make sure that they have the parts required for your phone and then make an appointment.
