The Problem

Your iPhone 15 Plus proximity sensor is not working properly, causing the screen to stay on during calls, not turning off when held to your ear, or failing to detect nearby objects.

Common symptoms include:

  • Screen doesn't turn off when phone is held to ear during calls
  • Accidental touches registered during phone conversations
  • Face sensor not detecting when phone is in pocket
  • Screen remains bright during calls causing battery drain
  • Auto-brightness not working properly in low light
  • Call interface remains active when it should be disabled

Our Solution

Our iPhone 15 Plus proximity sensor repair service restores proper face detection and object sensing functionality, ensuring the screen behaves correctly during calls and in various lighting conditions.

Why choose professionals:

  1. 83% DIY failure rate because proximity sensor sits within TrueDepth camera array requiring precise disassembly—improper removal damages Face ID flood illuminator requiring $500+ TrueDepth replacement while aggressive display removal cracks the $400-600 screen when prying near the sensor notch area.
  2. Professional proximity sensor repair demands expensive specialized infrared testing equipment and TrueDepth alignment tools unavailable to consumers—DIY attempts cannot verify proper infrared detection range, sensor calibration accuracy, or Face ID integration.
  3. Common DIY mistakes include damaging Face ID components during sensor removal permanently disabling biometric authentication requiring $500+ sensor replacement, installing aftermarket sensors with poor detection range causing unreliable screen behavior, and improper TrueDepth alignment eliminating proximity detection functionality—all void AppleCare+ coverage and destroy Face ID.
  4. Our certified technicians provide genuine Apple proximity sensors with proper infrared specifications and TrueDepth integration versus aftermarket sensors with inconsistent detection, poor range accuracy, slow response times, and Face ID incompatibility—backed by warranty versus voided AppleCare+ and no recourse for DIY failures.
  5. Professional proximity sensor repair includes precision infrared detection range testing, proper TrueDepth alignment verification, Face ID functionality validation, auto-brightness integration testing, and complete sensor calibration that DIY attempts cannot replicate—ensuring reliable face detection during calls.
  6. Same-day iPhone 15 Plus proximity sensor repair service available versus 3-5 day DIY part shipping plus high failure risk requiring professional correction anyway—our TrueDepth-specific expertise prevents Face ID damage and ensures accurate proximity detection on first attempt.

When we all depend so heavily on our iPhones for so many reasons, when something is wrong, we have to get it fixed before we lose all of our information inside it, it can be stressful and caused lots of anxiety! I read and write reviews all over the country because I am a truck driver and when I found this review about GIZMO DEPOT,INC , and all of the other great reviews, that made my decision to come here and I’m so happy I did! THE OWNER AND OPERATOR’S NAME IS NA!! Yes NA, and she is so wonderful with such a beautiful smile and a great personality to go with it! She she is so reassuring and trustworthy, when you drop your phone off, and might have to have a little extra work done in 24 hours, you have complete reassurance that when you get it back everything including many important emails are still going to be accessible! Na assured me and made me know without a doubt that my two week HAWAII HONEYMOON vacation, and all my emails would be exactly where I left them! So , of course they were! When we drop our phones and the glass in the back is cracked, really badly, and she has to completely take that off, clean the entire phone by taking everything out, also inserting a new battery as requested and screensaver, to me the challenge of that type of job is indescribable and I’m so glad I found Na to do it!! I absolutely highly recommend everything that she does to fix all of your devices! Her expertise and knowledge of doing this here at this location for over 14 years is proof, of her wonderful service! Thanks so much again NA !! I will be telling everybody I know, if they ever need service, to come to see you first! I appreciate you! YOU ARE THE BEST!

Na is the best! I needed my xbox series x cleaned and she explained everything thoroughly and insisted on testing before and after the cleaning. great prices and even greater results in a short time! will definitely come again :)

The lady running this is excellent! Unfortunately with this review, there isn't more than 5 starts but should be at least 10 stars!!!! Very helpful, knowledgeable and gets to the bottom or real issues quickly and is reasonable cost for diagnostic services. Identifies real issues where phone carrier store people generally do not find real equipment issues, especially on older phones!!!!

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the proximity sensor do on iPhone 15 Plus?

It detects when the phone is held close to your face during calls and turns off the screen to prevent accidental touches.

Can proximity sensor issues be caused by screen protectors?

Yes, thick or poorly aligned screen protectors can interfere with sensor function - we can assess and resolve this.

Will proximity sensor repair affect Face ID?

These are separate systems, but both are part of the TrueDepth camera - we ensure both function properly.

How do you test proximity sensor after repair?

We test face detection during calls, pocket sensing, and auto-brightness functionality in various lighting conditions.
