iPhone 13 Motherboard Replacement
Published by TurboFix, Hyderabad · Last updated · 1 sources
Quick answer
A iPhone 13 motherboard replacement swaps the A15 Bionic logic board. Your data doesn't transfer, Face ID usually stops working and the IMEI changes to the new board's, so we look at chip-level service on your original board first.
The iPhone 13's logic board holds the A15 Bionic chip, its storage and its security hardware. Replacing the whole board is a big step: your data doesn't come across, and Face ID usually won't work afterwards.
This page explains when a motherboard replacement makes sense for an iPhone 13, what changes afterwards, and when chip-level service on your original board is the better route.
Advice that applies to every iPhone — data safety, what to check before booking and common causes — is in our iPhone motherboard replacement guide; this page focuses on what's specific to the iPhone 13.

What makes the iPhone 13 different for this service?
- Chip: A15 Bionic. The chip, storage and security hardware are all on the logic board.
- Parts history: the iPhone 13 lists the logic board in Settings > General > About. Apple says a replaced, unverified logic board might affect features such as Apple Pay.
How does motherboard replacement differ across the iPhone 13 series (2021)?
The iPhone 13 series uses the A15 Bionic with a Qualcomm 5G modem. The logic board is listed in Parts and Service History, so a replacement board on a iPhone 13 is recorded there and Face ID won't carry over.
What should I check on my iPhone 13 before booking?
- The iPhone 13 went on sale in September 2021, so unless it was bought much later or has extended cover, it's likely outside Apple's one-year limited warranty. You can confirm at checkcoverage.apple.com.
What do we test on your iPhone 13 before handing it back?
These checks are chosen for the iPhone 13's hardware, so features this model has are confirmed working after motherboard replacement:
- Face ID set-up and unlock
- Lightning charging with a reference cable
- MagSafe alignment and wireless charging
- Ring/Silent switch
- Calls on earpiece and speakerphone, and Voice Memo recording
- Mobile data including 5G where available, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth

IPhone 13 motherboard replacement: frequently asked questions
Will I lose my data if the iPhone 13 motherboard is replaced?
Yes — data on the old board doesn't move to the new one, because storage is part of the board and encrypted to it. If you have an iCloud or computer backup, you can restore it onto the replacement. If you don't, ask about chip-level service first: reviving the original board is the only way to reach that data.
Is a motherboard replacement worth it?
It depends on the iPhone 13's value to you, whether you have a backup, and the alternatives. Because Face ID usually won't work afterwards and data isn't transferred, we often recommend trying chip-level service on your original board first.
How much does a iPhone 13 motherboard replacement cost?
It depends on board availability and storage size. We quote after diagnosis, before any work, and explain whether chip-level service is a better option.
Are replacement logic boards available for the iPhone 13?
Usually, as used or refurbished boards, because the iPhone 13 has been on sale since September 2021. Condition and source vary, so we tell you exactly what's being quoted.
Will a replacement board have the same storage as my iPhone 13?
Not necessarily. Storage is part of the logic board, so the replacement brings its own capacity. Make sure the quote states the storage size you're getting.
Will Settings show that the iPhone 13's board was replaced?
Yes. On iPhone 12 and later, including the iPhone 13, Settings > General > About lists the logic board, and Apple marks a replaced board that can't be verified as "Unverified".
