Replacement Screens(13)

Picking the right screen comes down to compatibility and what’s included. A quick check can save time and rework.

• Confirm your exact model: Find the device model number in Settings > About or etched on the back.
• Match connectors and size: Compare product photos and the listed connector layout to your original.
• Assembly type: Full assemblies (display + touch) are simpler; separate glass/touch or display-only parts can be more advanced.
• With or without frame: Frames can simplify alignment but may require transferring fewer parts.
• What’s in the box: Check if tools, adhesive, and small brackets are included.

Review the product description and compatibility notes on the item page before you order.

These terms describe different parts of a display assembly and help you decide what you need.

• LCD: A backlit panel that shows the image. It’s common and works well for many devices.
• OLED: Each pixel lights itself, offering deeper blacks and thinner panels. It’s often more sensitive to handling during install.
• Digitizer: The touch-sensing layer. If the picture looks fine but touch doesn’t respond, the digitizer is often the issue.

Many replacements come as a pre-bonded display + digitizer to simplify repair. If the image is cracked or has lines, replace the display; if only touch is unresponsive, a digitizer-integrated assembly can help.

Kits vary, so it’s good to scan the “What’s included” section on the product page.

• Replacement screen assembly: May be display-only or a full assembly with touch pre-bonded.
• Frame and small parts: Some include a frame, brackets, speaker mesh, or adhesive gaskets pre-installed.
• Tools: Often a screwdriver set, spudgers, suction cup, opening picks, tweezers, and a SIM tool.
• Adhesive: Pre-applied strips or double-sided tape for resealing.

Not every kit includes waterproof gaskets or every small bracket. If you need a more complete set, look for mentions of pre-installed parts or an included adhesive seal.

A careful setup can make the swap smoother and help protect your device.

• Power down first: If possible, disconnect the battery before unplugging display cables.
• Work clean: Use a dust-free, well-lit surface and keep screws organized.
• Soften adhesive: Gentle, controlled heat can help lift the old screen without stressing cables.
• Protect the battery: Never pry directly on a battery; avoid bending or puncturing it.
• Test before sealing: Connect the new screen, power on, and check touch and display before applying final adhesive.
• Reapply seals: Use new adhesive or a gasket if your device originally had one; water resistance may be reduced after repair.

There are a few quick checks that can help you diagnose what’s going on.

• Reseat connectors: Power down, disconnect the battery if possible, and firmly reattach display and touch cables.
• Inspect for obstructions: Remove any protective films on connectors or sensor windows; clear debris from ports.
• Check flex cables: Look for kinks, tears, or bent pins on connectors.
• Soft reset test: Restart the device and test again before sealing.
• Compare parts: Verify you received the correct model and connector layout.

If issues persist, review the product page for troubleshooting notes and support or return options. Professional installation may be a helpful alternative if you’re unsure.
