Types of Screens Available for iPhone, Samsung and other Phones

When you're looking to fix your phone, the "best" choice really depends on how you use your device and what your budget looks like.

To put it simply, LCD is our budget-friendly workhorse; it uses a backlight to light up the whole panel, which makes it reliable but a bit thicker and harder on your battery. OLED is the more modern "vibrant" option—each pixel creates its own light, giving you those "true blacks" and much better battery life because the screen can actually turn off individual pixels for dark areas. Finally, an Original (or OEM) screen is the exact same part your phone had when it was brand new in the box, ensuring perfect color, touch sensitivity, and fit.

iPhone and Samsung Screen Replacement Differences

LCD

  • Most Affordable: Significant cost savings compared to OLED or Original parts.

  • Durability: Less prone to "burn-in" (ghost images) over long periods of use.

  • Battery Use: Consumes more power because the backlight is always on, even for dark images.

  • Visuals: Colors are slightly more "washed out," and blacks look more like dark grey.

OLED

  • Stunning Quality: Offers deep blacks and vibrant colors for a "cinematic" look.

  • Battery Efficient: Saves power by turning off black pixels, extending your daily charge

  • Slimmer Build: Thinner than LCDs, which usually leads to a more flush fit in the frame

  • Faster Response: Better for gaming and scrolling because the pixels react almost instantly.

ORIGINAL

  • Perfect Calibration: Guaranteed to have the exact brightness and color balance the manufacturer intended.

  • Flawless Touch: Ensures 100% accurate touch sensitivity and "True Tone" compatibility.

  • Best Resale Value: Keeping original parts in your phone helps maintain its value if you ever trade it in.

  • Reliability: Built with the highest quality glass and materials to match the factory's safety standards.

For Samsung Repairs we don't offer an alternative to Original Samsung Service Packs as Samsung have very clever patented pixel technology and aftermarket screens for the best part have been poor and lead to long term isues with quality and use. We will not fit them, however, other companies will and they are available. Our prices are based on genuine Samsung Screens.

iPhones and other phone brands have higher qaulity matching products, especially the OLED type so we are happy to use them and offer a 12 monthwarranty.
