Your two options

Two quality screens, your choice

Budget screen (LCD)

from £49.99

6-month warranty

A quality LCD panel. Bright, sharp and perfect for everyday use: calls, messages, browsing and social media. The colours and blacks are very slightly less rich than an OLED, and it is a little less bright in direct sunlight, but day to day most people are very happy with it. The cost-friendly choice.

Our best option

Premium screen (Soft OLED)

from £69.99

Lifetime warranty

A soft OLED panel that matches the look and feel of the original display. True blacks, vivid colour, high brightness outdoors and smooth, responsive touch, with True Tone support. This is the one we would fit on our own phones, and it is backed by a lifetime warranty.

Which should you choose?

Simple, honest advice

Pick Budget (LCD) if...

You want to keep the cost down and just need your phone working and looking good for everyday use. It is a proper quality screen at the friendliest price, covered for 6 months.

Pick Premium (Soft OLED) if...

You want the original experience, the best colour and brightness, and the reassurance of a lifetime warranty. It costs a little more, but many customers feel it is worth it, especially on newer or higher-value phones.

Our honest promise. We will always tell you which screen your phone originally used and give you our honest recommendation. We do not fit the cheapest throwaway copies, both of our options are quality panels, fitted and tested by hand. Want the deeper detail on screen technology?

FAQ

Screen repair questions

What is the difference between a budget (LCD) and premium (OLED) screen? +

A budget screen uses an LCD panel: bright and sharp, and great for everyday use, but its blacks are slightly greyer and its colours a touch less vivid than the original. A premium screen uses a soft OLED panel that matches the look and feel of the original display, with true blacks, richer colour, higher brightness outdoors and True Tone support.

How much does a screen replacement cost? +

Our budget (LCD) screens start from £49.99 and our premium (soft OLED) screens start from £69.99. The exact price depends on your model, with newer Pro and Max phones costing more. We always give you the exact price before any work begins, and diagnostics are free.

Which screen do you recommend? +

For most people the premium soft OLED is the smart choice: it matches the original experience and is backed by our lifetime warranty. The budget LCD is a great option if you want to keep the cost down. Both are quality panels fitted and tested by hand, so you cannot go wrong.

Do the screens come with a warranty? +

Yes. Budget (LCD) screens are covered by a 6-month warranty. Premium (soft OLED) screens are covered by our lifetime warranty.

Are these genuine Apple screens? +

They are high-quality aftermarket panels, not official Apple parts. Our premium soft OLED matches the look and feel of the original display, and in normal everyday use most people cannot tell the difference.
