Rajesh Pandey, iPhoneHacks:
Getting the 5.8-inch OLED display of the iPhone X repaired from Apple is an expensive process. With Apple charging hundreds of dollars for a screen replacement if you don’t have Apple Care for your iPhone X, it is not surprising that many people end up getting their screen replaced from a third-party repair store which charges significantly less than Apple.
Is there a downside to using an aftermarket replacement? In the video embedded below Rajesh takes a look at several aftermarket solutions, compared to an official OEM replacement display.
I came away from this video wondering how representative this is. Do all aftermarket displays suffer from these same shortcomings? At the very least, I would definitely do my homework before I went for a 3rd party replacement display.
