iPad Screen Repair & Parts Replacement

When it comes to iPhone screen repair, you have three choices: Aftermarket screens, Genuine displays with aftermarket touch glass (commonly called OEM screens), and Genuine Apple screens. Here are the differences:

Functionality:

• Aftermarket Screens: These often suffer from reduced brightness, color distortion, and lower touch sensitivity.
• OEM and Genuine Apple Screens: Both offer exceptional color accuracy, brightness, and overall display quality, ensuring a seamless user experience.

Quality and Durability:

• Aftermarket and OEM Screens: These typically use lower-quality materials, making them more prone to scratches, cracks, and damage.
• Genuine Apple Screens: Built with high-quality materials and precise engineering, they are more resistant to scratches, cracks, and impact damage. They are designed to withstand everyday wear and tear, providing long-lasting performance. Additionally, from the iPhone 12 onwards, Apple uses "Ceramic Shield" on the touch glass, which is claimed to be tougher than any other smartphone glass, offering four times better drop protection.

Dust and Water Resistance:

• Genuine Apple Screens: Only these screens can restore the dust and water resistance of your iPhone. This is because they meet the necessary sealing requirements and require replacing the display adhesive during the repair process.

Our Recommendation:

• If you use your phone daily and it's frequently handled, we recommend the "Genuine Apple" screen for the best experience.
• If you want to restore your phone's functionality and don’t often drop it, the "OEM" screen is a good option.
• If budget is your primary concern, the "Aftermarket" screen is the best choice.

A few years ago, Apple began encrypting iPhone parts, meaning that if an iPhone is repaired by an unauthorized repair shop, the phone will display an "unknown part" message, even if genuine parts are used (more details click here). This message typically appears when the screen, battery, or camera has been repaired by a third party.

What Can You Do?

• Apple Store or Authorized Dealer: If you are concerned about the "unknown part" message, the best option is to visit an Apple store or an authorized dealer.
• Trusted Repair Shop: If you do not mind the message and just want to get your damaged phone back to working condition, a trusted repair shop is a good choice.
