cost to fix lcd screen on iphone made in china
Mandy, ETS is obviously a company that you are connected to and this could easily be taken for spam. I think we can make an exception at this time since you are asking a good market research question that may be useful to many.
Having checked out your video, I personally will not use the aftermarket screen as a replacement for my X. It just doesn"t have what I expect for a $1000 USD phone. I recognize that $300 USD for a replacement is hefty but the aftermarket screen does not appear to have the quality that I would expect for my phone.

With the lack stock of the original iPhone 5 & 6 series LCD screen, the China made LCD screens becomes more and more popular among the repair shops. As the originaliPhone 6 Plus LCD screenprices are still high and not likely to fall down, plus more and more repair shops are tending to accept the China made LCD screens replacement instead, therefore, China made iPhone 6 Plus LCD screen appeared on the market naturally.
Recently we have got some samples of the China Made 6 Plus LCD screen, which have been called ‘LG 1:1 version’ on the market. We did some tests with these samples and found some differences compared to other China made LCD screens.
After tests, we found some differences in LCD frame height, glass screen thickness and the home button location among these 5 samples. You may wonder why these differences exist while they are sourcing from the same manufacturer?
Thus we need to learn the production process of the China made LCD screens, which was assembled by the 3rd party manufacturers, who purchased the China made LCD,LCD frame,glass lens,metal shields, screen foam and digitizer from different manufacturers, which could be original or high copied ones. Since there are some differences among theseglass lenses, LCD frames and so on, even though they shared the same LCD, there will still be some difference.
There is no doubt that significant differences existed between these 2 kinds of LCDs whether in display effect or working stability. In pursuit of greater profits, there is no strict requirements and standards for China made LCDs production process as long as the LCDs can achieve the basic using requirements. Therefore there is quite a gap in color difference, viewing angle and working stability compared to original ones, as the LCDs which are designed for the other brand cellphones, after replacing the IC and flex cable, have been inspected strictly before flowing to the market. (Such as the Samsung GalaxyS3 LCD screen assemblywhich are transformed from the GiONEE phones. Due to the few original stock in availability, most of the S3 LCD screen assemblies are produced by Samsung through transforming GiONEE LCDs.
It is said that these China made iPhone 6 Plus LCD screens are transformed from the MeiZu Meilan Note LCDs (Also features 5.5 inches) which are produced by Sharp and AUO, the overall performances of these LCD screens are better than LT/TM/JDF’s. And what’s big different from the other LCD screens is that there is one more LCD drive IC on the screen flex cable.
Because of the big production MOQ and long R & D cycle, the customized China made LCD screens had some difficulties intechnologyimprovementwith the changes of the marketing demands, while the original LCD features higher quality and reliability.
For these China made iPhone 6 Plus LCD screens, theLCD frametending to pop off and LCD screens are thicker. But in display effects, China made iPhone 6 plus LCD screens are better than5 series. Those customers who cared more about the prices will have one more choice once the improvements of the China made iPhone 6 Plus have been implemented. And we also will continue to focus on the China made iPhone 6 Plus LCD screen assembly.
“Original” screens are those containing LCDs manufactured for Apple. “Copy” screens are compatible replacements entirely designed and manufactured by third-party companies not associated with Apple.
LCD display panel can have poorer resolution (i.e. looks “coarser”), worse brightness, contrast and vibrancy and reduced refresh rate amongst other problems.
Changes in specification from original can result in battery and performance issues. Certain badly-engineered screens could even damage the backlight circuitry.
Customers who bring their iPhones to us for a screen repair are offered two choices of replacement- an original or a “copy” screen. The most common response is “Is there a difference- and which one would you recommend?”
Originals are those screens containing LCDs that were manufactured for Apple. So-called “copy” screens are compatible replacements, but designed and manufactured entirely independently by third-party companies, typically in China.
Our answer is simple- the original screen is the one we’d go for ourselves, every time. Some people think we make more money on them, but this isn’t the case. We recommend originals because they’re far higher quality and the price difference is fairly small.
We’d rather only fit original screens. The only reason we don’t is that many people will shop around and choose purely on price. As such, we need to offer the cheaper copy screens to remain competitive and avoid losing these customers. In some cases, they didn’t even know there was a difference in the first place- especially since it’s not in some shops’ interest to draw people’s attention to the issue!
This may well be the worst copy screen we’ve ever come across. As a result, the unfortunate customer has ended up paying twice to have their screen replaced- we’re sure that had they been properly informed, they would have chosen an original in the first place.
While the difference in price between copies and originals can vary across devices, it’s generally around £10 – £14 extra to have an original screen fitted. This really isn’t a lot considering the improved quality and reliability.
We compare our prices to our competitors- and we know that we come out of it favourably. While we have to offer copy screens to remain competitive, we always advise customers to go for the original.
When you’ve spent- directly or indirectly- several hundred pounds for an iPhone with a Retina display, it doesn’t make sense to replace it with a lower-quality screen that can make a £400 phone look like a £40 one! Not only that, but you’re likely to have fewer issues, and a longer-lasting screen.
There’s nothing stopping any random person without training or experience opening up a smartphone repair shop. As a result, the industry is full of companies with little skill or experience who are only interested in getting hold of your money and installing the cheapest parts they can find.
Many- if not most- don’t even acknowledge the existence of copy screens, let alone explain the difference to the customer. Hardly in their interest to do so if they only fit cheap, low-quality copies. Some of them can hardly be blamed- they know so little, they’re not even clear on the differences between OEM, non-OEM and copy displays themselves! Others can be more deliberately misleading… and some outright lie.
Generally, these shops are looking for the cheapest price on replacement screens.. When offered a copy at a half or a third of a price of the original, they’re going to go for that. That might be fine if they offered the customer a cheaper price- what we disagree with is selling “supermarket beans” (i.e. the copy screens) at “Heinz beans” prices!
Heading towards the “blatantly fraudulent”, we’re aware of companies that shamelessly fit copy screens while claiming them to be original. Worse, they’ll take your broken original screen and sell that to a recycler for more than they paid for your copy!
Obtained or manufactured “off the clock” via the same production line that produced them for Apple- in some cases, from the stockpile of parts that didn’t meet Apple’s standards, or
Apple tightened up their supply chain around 2015, which reduced the number of screens available for repairs and increased their price dramatically. A lot of companies went bankrupt, and Chinese manufacturers responded by making their own “copy” screens from scratch. At first, these weren’t much cheaper than the Apple ones, but the price soon fell.
We should be clear that- despite the name- “copy” screens aren’t direct copies of the Apple originals. Rather, they’re compatible replacements that have been designed from scratch and- as a result- vary in some respects that have an effect on usability and quality.
One of the most important differences between an original and a “copy” screen is how the digitizer (touch sensor) is designed. Apple has it manufactured as part of the LCD itself, whereas the copies have it on the glass.
Although there are only a small number of manufacturers of the bare LCDs themselves, these are then bought by countless other companies who add the remaining components needed to turn these into a complete working screen. As a result, you could easily end up with an LCD from the best “copy” manufacturer, but the digitizer/touch (as part of the separately-manufactured glass) from the worst.
There are countless digitizers out there, and you can only take the supplier’s word that the quality is good. Many ship good ones at first, then switch to cheaper parts to make more profit. This is particularly bad with the iPhone 6S and 6S+, since Apple moved the chips responsible for touch processing onto the LCD itself. As a result, you’re not just getting a copy screen- you’re getting copy chips too.
The performance specification (power drain, etc.) of most copy screens isn’t identical to the originals. As a result, they can drain the battery more quickly and mislead the operating system which was optimised for the original screen design.
It’s even possible that this mismatch could damage your backlight. We do a lot of subcontracted repairs for less-experienced shops, and get backlight repairs in almost every day. We’ve had cases where we fixed the circuit, fitted the new copy screen to test it, and had it break the circuit again!
Copy screens can disrupt the touch ID fingerprint reader. With the 6S, 6S+, 7 and 7+, the home button- part of the 3D touch- is part of the screen assembly. Frequently the home button flexes on aftermarket designs don’t work properly and stop the touch ID working- annoying if you use it to unlock the phone or log in to your bank.
We’ve seen many lift away from the frame that holds them in place. This usually results in the flex cable getting torn, and the screen needing replacing. You don’t even need to have dropped the phone- this often happens through general everyday wear and tear.
That brings us to another major issue with the copies. When you drop an Apple original, the glass often breaks, but if the LCD itself is intact, you can continue to use it until it’s fixed. With the copies, the touch/digitizer is on the glass and stops working when that’s broken. Even worse, the LCD itself is more likely to break due to the thinner and more fragile glass.
We’re not convinced this will happen, since Apple recently changed their repair policy to accept iPhones with third-party screens. However, it is possible that copy screens could be stopped from working via an iOS update, since those make a number of security checks.
If you have a Samsung device and you have had the unfortunate experience of a broken screen you have probably wondered “why is a Samsung screen so expensive?”
In my seven years of repairing cell phones I have had customers ask me this questions hundreds of times. I have had customers that have inquired about the repair rudely scoff or even insult me for quoting a repair cost above $200.00 various times as well.
Samsung makes great devices and when compared to Apple it can be argued that you get more for your money when buying the device, but what should be factored into the pre-purchase cost analysis and ultimately the decision is the repair cost of the device you are contemplating.
Historically the brand new iPhone and the brand new Samsung will both have ridiculously expensive screen replacement costs immediately after the device hits the market. This high price is because of the simple concept of supply and demand. When the device is launched there is very little aftermarket support and very few suppliers that offer screens and if they do the availability is also few so this drives up the repair cost upwards of $500 Canadian. The difference between Samsung and Apple comes later as the months go by after the initial launch. Apple original screen supply increases over time and other manufactures in China develop and offer many new aftermarket replacement options which eventually floods the supply in the market, increases competition among competitors and finally drags the price downwards eventually close to $100 Canadian dollars. Samsung screens are manufactured in Korea. The screen supply is kept restricted and the secrets needed to produce Samsung’s OLED aftermarket versions are kept in secret, which prevents the entrance of other aftermarket manufactures. The problem that this then creates is a continuous low supply of replacement screens and therefor-high cost.
The next comments I get are “I only cracked the glass and my display works fine, why is it still so expensive to repair?” often said more aggressively or condescending, but you get the gist. I cant blame people for this thought process since back when the good old iPhone 3 was ruling the world we had the option to simply unscrew the glass from the LCD and replace the much less costly glass while leaving the LCD. Nowadays our phones are made to be slim and sleek and in order to minimize the thickness of the devices they have fused together the glass and the LCD with optically clear adhesive. So since they are glued together we replace the full assembly and this means that the cost goes up by the cost of the expensive LCD component of course.
Replacing the glass only is not impossible, in fact we have done it many times before since we purchased screen-refurbishing equipment that allows us to separate the broken glass, clean the LCD and laminate a new glass. The problem with this is that it is very difficult and labor intensive and it really doesn’t save much money. Secondly, the potential for issues with the LCD following the refurbishing process is much higher given that the separation involves heat and some force. The delicate LCD as you can imagine does not like heat or force. If a quick turnaround is not a concern for you then ask us about possibly having the glass only replacement done.
Another related comment that I hear is “I prefer Samsung because the screens don’t break as easy”. This is false. I do a lot less Samsung screen repairs yes, but that is because I quote the screen replacement and the customer will often be left with the choice of for example repairing the screen for $250.00 or buying another used device for the same cost or slightly more. iPhone repairs are always cost effective and make sense since they are well below the cost of replacing the device.
In short, Samsung may give you more bang for your buck considering its purchase price and features offered, but when considering repair cost in your pre-purchase decision the iPhone may be the better buy despite a pricey original purchase price.

What exactly is short in the market? Your iPhone’s screen is one solid unit made up of several elements that are fused together with OCA (optically clear adhesive). The exterior glass, the digitizer panel (touch sensor), the polarizer and LCD panel. The LCD panel is the key component that is in short supply. Originally Apple had 3 manufacturers to produce LCD panels (LG, Sharp and Toshiba). Apple’s authorized manufacturers have the exclusive technology to produce LCD panels. Other Chinese manufacturers can copy the glass, digitizer, polarizers, OCA, flex cables, backlights, frames and everything except for the main component of the LCD assembly.
How were we getting these parts before? A big leak in Apple’s supply chain. The iPhone 5, 5S and 5C all share most of the same raw components including the LCD panel, the only difference is the flex cable and plastic frame. Independent factories in China can produce these components and can manufacture any 5 series assembly from an LCD panel. Shown on the left is a pulse pressing machine, used to connect the flex cable to the LCD. We use one of these to repair LCDs with damaged flex cables.
So what’s happening?A few things, first Apple has cut off LG and Toshiba, making Sharp their exclusive supplier for iPhone LCD panels and implemented very tight security. Secondly, they have had Foxconn destroy stockpiles of series 5 LCD panels to reduce the parts and material leakage to factories that re-engineer them for the independent repair industry. Along with this strategy, Apple has instructed Foxconn to reduce series 6 materials leakage from their manufacturing centers. Lastly, Apple is working aggressively with US Customs to seize inbound parts.
How long is this shortage going to last? In short,we have no idea. At the time of this writing, LCD prices have been steadily rising for 6 months and replacement iPhone 6S LCDs cost twice what Apple charges for their repair service. Apple does not intend to compete with independent repair shops, instead they are squeezing the profit out of the industry. LCD refurbishing may help shops cut cost but without new LCD panels entering the system it won’t last long.
What does this mean for the independent repair community?Apple is the only repair operation that is immune. Even the Chinese LCD refurbishing plants used by the large chain repair companies are running out of LCDs. Continually rising costs may push out the big chains but with lower overhead and clever problem-solving, the owner-operated shops stand a fighting chance.
What can we do?Apple has done everything in their power to protect their repair monopoly. When there’s only one repair shop around, prices and wait time goes up and quality goes down. Apple has every incentive to eliminate the parts market. Don’t let them. Check out the Right to Repair Bill.

There are several display panel manufacturers in mainland China of which JDF(BOE) and TM(Tianma) stand out noticeably. JDF has gradually transformed its 6th production line into small-to-medium-size displays since 2014 and now JDF proceeds this plan and concentrates production capacity in this field in an all-around way.
As a matter of fact, TM(Tianma) has already transformed its display size and capacity altogether in late 2013 in prior of JDF(BOE), focusing on small-to-medium-size displays.
In addition to this, though SC which was vigorously supported by Foxconn had been performing mass production for LTPS, TFT, LCD displays at the beginning of 2012, did not make a great progress for the reason that SC failed to neither win over the Apple iPhone orders and nor get authorization in CG Si and IGZO technology of Sharp.
But do you know which iPhone 6 LCD made by these three display penal manufacturers is more cost-effective? Let’s go on with this article and sort things out. Not too long ago, REWA has analyzed the JDF(BOE) and LT(IVO) China made iPhone 6 LCDs in some ways. After several months’ development, how is the situation now? We have tested 3 mainstream China-made iPhone 6 LCDs by JDF(BOE ), TM(Tianma) and SC from aspects of “Appearance” and “Function” in order to make a comparison with OEM ones and give us clarity of thought.
After installed in the mobile devices, it’s much easy for us to find that all these three China made LCDs have a small gap between the LCD and device body, especially SC.
It can be observed visually that LCD Display and Touchscreen digitizer flex cable made by JDF, TM and SC are different in texture. 5) Structure Generally speaking, there are two kinds of mainstream cell phone display constructions of formation, “G+G” and “In-cell”.
Compared with the In-cell structure of OEM LCD, JDF, TM and SC which use G+G touch screen display technology thus cause their overall thickness greater than the OEM ones.
Testing Touch screen digitizer by moving the app icon in all directions including swiping from the edge of the screen, JDF, TM and SC display have no problems with touch function.
Testing LCD display in the pure color of gray, white and black, a part of JDF, TM and SC LCDs have somewhat degree problems of backlight leakage, but it does not affect the normal use and can be ignored in a certain sense. Note: The severity of this problem in the actual situation is a lot more slight than the captured pictures above.
After playing video for 72 hours, JDF, TM, SC have no obvious differences with the OEM ones. CONCLUSION From a series of tests we can find there are only a few differences between OEM display and China made LCDs. In terms of quality, JDF & TM are better than SC. For Price, JDF is more favorable than TM. Therefore, on the market condition that OEM LCDs being out of stock, JDF LCD is the most cost-effective choice for you. Want to order our products?

Today marks a set back for the right to repair movement. Henrik Huseby, a Norwegian small business owner and repairer lost his legal battle against $1 trillion company Apple in Norway’s Supreme Court. With this decision, Apple continues to effectively shut off access to refurbished or after market spare parts for independent repairers.
Apple claimed that Huseby was allegedly importing “counterfeit” iPhone screens. Huseby denied this, saying that he simply used refurbished iPhone screens that he never advertised to the public as “genuine” parts from Apple.
While the Oslo District Court ruled in 2018 that Huseby did not violate Apple’s trademark, because Huseby never claimed to be using unused original spare parts, the Court of Appeal ruled in 2019 that the imported screens are illegal copies. The case was then brought to the Supreme Court.
“This is a big victory for companies like Apple who want to shut down small businesses like mine and control the prices of repair. They can claim that the cost of changing a screen will be the same as buying a new one, so there is no value in repairing. They are blocking their competition and creating a monopoly” says Huseby.
Huseby took a considerable risk taking this case all the way to his Supreme Court, when other businesses in the same situation have given in to Apple in order to avoid trial and considerable legal expenses.
He was supported by €10,000 in donations to his crowdfunders that arrived from hundreds of donors from Norway, Europe and the rest of the world. After having paid fees for his appeals, he now faces severe financial consequences, which include paying his own legal team and €23,000 to Apple.
The Norwegian judges made the final decision purely assessing trademark violations on these screens, based on obscure and technical details that are entirely invisible to consumers. They didn’t revisit the ruling of the Court of Appeal, while Huseby still maintains they were refurbished.
Refurbished screens made in China come from companies that remove smashed glass from the high-quality original Apple LCD and apply a new glass on it. Usually the rest of the assembly is an original, reused part, and the glass is made by a third party.
As Huseby puts it, Apple uses intellectual property law as a “weapon” by putting multiple logos and QR-codes on each component part of its screens, knowing that the Chinese grey market will not specifically cater to repairers in other countries that zealously enforce intellectual property. This creates a kind of “roulette” for repairers who want to import affordable, refurbished parts from China. Apple can then ask customs authorities in these countries to seize refurbished parts shipments.
Meanwhile, Apple refuses to sell genuine spare parts to independent repairers in Europe. So they have a choice: buy either inferior generic parts or refurbished or after-market parts, like the kind Huseby bought.
Apple’s aggressive use of intellectual property in order to shut down independent repairs will ultimately raise prices for consumers, if they are forced to choose Apple’s far more expensive authorised repairers who have access to new, genuine parts. For example, while Apple in Norway charges 1 959.75 NOK (185 EU) for mail-in service to replace the screen in an iPhone 6s, Apple’s authorised repair services in Norway charge 2699 NOK (255 EU), more than three times as much as Huseby charges, 800 NOK (75 EU).
A recent Eurobarometer survey by the European Commission shows that almost 8 in 10 Europeans think manufacturers should be required to make it easier to repair electronic devices or replace parts.
This costs the planet too, as high prices for repair push consumers to cycle through products faster and faster. A report by the EEB showed that extending the life of European smartphones by just one year would save the CO2 equivalent of taking one million cars off the road.
“This case was both about Apple using its power to pressure Norwegian authorities and control the process, and about the letter of the law being inappropriate to the moment we are living. Extending mobile lifecycles via repair is the best way to reduce their environmental impact, and refurbished parts are the greenest and cost-effective option.”
The Right to Repair European campaign has helped with his fundraising efforts and is now calling for measures to prevent other repairers like Huseby having to go through this again.
We are now holding the European Commission to its commitment to “a Right to Repair” in the Circular Economy Action Plan, to ensure universal access to affordable genuine spare parts for all electronics for both repair professionals and consumers.
To inform them of Apple’s environmentally damaging, anti-competitive win in Norway, we are sending a letter to EU Competition Commissioner Vestager and European MEPs from different political groups.
This very articulately and eloquently written article reports very bad news on all counts and a depressing legal and environmental precedent. The Norwegian Supreme Court needs its backside kicked hard for this disgracefully inequitable, illogical and perverse decision that is not remotely in the wider consumer, public or environmental interest. The Norwegian authorities have clearly been politically pressurised by Apple using its ill-gotten commercial power. Time for a serious boycott of capitalist Apple and its over-rated restricted products by all technology consumers – there are plenty of perfectly adequate and cheaper open-source alternatives on the market.
I do not understand how copyright laws can apply to physical objects. A copyright is used to protect visual and auditory information. I can see it may be a violation of trademark if someone advertises or claims to be using official manufacturer parts when it is not official parts. But if the claim is not official parts, then there should be no reason for a manufacturer to hinder a party from using them to refurbish or repair a product.
Once Apple has sold a phone, it should have no control of what the owner does to that phone, and no say if another company repairs that phone with whatever parts to bring it to functional condition. This is an abuse of copyright laws. The EU should pass right to repair laws that allows anyone to do as they please to products that they own, since the original manufacturer has already profited from the sale of the product.
We can see that original manufacturers want to block owners from being able to repair their products with parts not sanctioned by the original manufacturer to increase sales. This is bad for everyone, leads to greater waste, and hinders a thriving economy in repairs and manufacturing of parts.
Another way that Apple blocks the ability to repair of their products is by putting software locks (cryptographic keys) in their parts. This is supposedly for security purposes, but it’s clearly to make sure people can’t repair their products, so consumers have no option but to trash their old phones and computers and buy new ones. This is so completely hypocritical coming from Apple, a supposedly environmentally conscientious company.
I’ve been an apple user all my adult life, loved the quality of product. I’m now going to switch to other brands. This ‘beating the little guy’ will cost apple far more in the long run, it costs their integrity. Makes the 1984 advert seem like a big con.
I don’t think this is fair article. In Norwegian media this case is presented differently. It wasn’t “allegedly counterfeit”, it was entirely counterfeit. All the products had the same identical serial number and was made in a Chinese factory that had nothing to do with Apple.
The only reason Huseby won the case is because he never claimed that they were genuine parts, however the parts still had illegal Apple logos and the judge in the supreme court decided that logos on counterfeit parts are a breach of trademarks. Which they are. Apple has every right to fight people who try to sell counterfeit products that has a counterfeit Apple logo.
I’m not saying that Huseby imported counterfeit parts on purpose, but he did and that’s between him and the Chinese company. However he is, on purpose, not giving a fair representation of this case by pretending that he imported genuine parts while clearly they were not (experts confirmed this). A witness in this case, Louis Rossmann (“god” of right to repair), changed his opinion on this case because of the new information that Huseby hid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKEdi6vXMrU
The right to repair is not “lets slap any logo on counterfeit parts cause it’ll be cheaper.” I’m sorry that Huseby got scammed, but it’s not about deceit and scamming customers with fake parts. I wish an organisation that fights for something so close to my heart would have given a fair representation instead of trashing Apple at any cost, even the truth.
This is nothing new as Apple is a symbol of typical American hedgemony. They will use their power to monopoly the market and suppress competition. The existing law has to change and reflect the growing technology landscape. Failing that, the consumer should stop buying and using Apple products… That I am sure will send a message to Apple and get them to change the business practice very quickly.
The fact that you actually believe that silliness is the crime. This is an example of greedy douche bags Being greedy douche bags. That would be Apple and the Chinese factory. Huseby was just trying to provide a service. All countries need to pass the same laws That Car Companies were subjected to back in the 60s. They need to supply parts at a reasonable price for a specific period of time.
I was shocked after reading this post, iPhone is a very good company but it does some unexpected things https://www.ukassignmenthelp.uk/marketing-assignment/ I also used iPhone for a long time, Functionality was amazing, but battery time was not.
Since the iPhone 7/7 Plus has been released for quite a long time, finally the China made iPhone 7/7 Plus screen replacementscame out in the market. we’ve got some iPhone 7 series LCD screen replacements samples and done some tests on them, now let’s take a closer look at these new iPhone 7 series LCD screen replacements!(TianmaandLGsources for testing)
After installing all the sample screens to the iPhone 7/7 Plus rear housing assembly, we found that all the China made iPhone 7 series screen replacements are fitting well just like the original ones - the home button fits well, the screen assembly and the rear housing also fits well.
From the picture below, we can see that there is no difference between the China made iPhone 7 series display and the original ones, however, back to the rear side, we can easily figure out which one is which, cause the original one has Apple logo on it while the China made screen has none.
By comparing these two iPhone 7 screens, we can find that the screen flex cables are much different, there are extra IC on the China-Made iPhone 7 screen while the original one has none. And the original iPhone 7 series screen flex cable is integrated together while on the China-Made iPhone 7 series screen the touch function flex cable is soldered to the display and 3D touch flex cable.
Another difference between the original and China made iPhone 7 screen replacements is the exposed IC on the after-market iPhone screen, just like other China-Made iPhone 5 or 6 series screen replacement, which has more potential risk of electrostatic damage and more likely to get damaged and this problem needs to be improved.
During our test, we found that the display color between our after-market iPhone 7 screen and original screen seems a little different although they are not effecting the touch function. And to be honest, there may have some black dots on the screen because of impurities within the screen module when laminating the LCD and backlight together, without any doubt, this can be solved with technical improvement.
The screen touch sensitivity is another big concern for all of us, luckily, during our test, almost all home button and touch functionality on both iPhone 7 and 7 Plus works well, except one piece of iPhone 7, the 3D touch function is not acting so well on the central part of the screen.
The China-Made iPhone 7 series LCD screen assembly replacement still remains to be improved in quality and performance compared to the original ones, the exposed IC, heavier screen flex cable ribbon, and the screen color difference, the touch function stability, although the price is attractive. However, the China made iPhone 7 series screen replacement is under the improvement, and sooner or later their quality and performance can be quite close to original ones and acceptable, if you"re going to stock up some non-original iPhone 7 series LCD screen replacement, pay more attention and we’ll keep you updated with further information about after-market iPhone 7 series screen replacement!
