IPHONE XR SCREEN REPAIR

It is very important to take care of the original screen of iphone XR because if it breaks and has to be replaced, the true tone functionality is disabled even when the new screen is an original apple screen. Apple charges $ 199 for screen repair of iphone XR screen. Other damages which are not related to the screen repair are more costly up to $399.

 If the screen is cracked, and not sensitive to the touch, or not showing anything when it is powered on, it can be restored to working order with a new screen or a display assembly. In the factory, the phone is fixed with a sensor assembly at the back of the display and a earpiece speaker. These components must be transferred from the old display to the new screen during a screen replacement.

In it is a flood illuminator which is a component of the biometric feature of a Face ID. The face ID will stop to function if the components are replaced or damaged. So one must be very careful with all the components during the replacement procedure. This damage can only be repaired by apple and it is costly.

REMOVING THE SCREEN

It should be done carefully following the instructions in the iphone XR repair kit which is available from the authorized dealers.

There are water proof seals which will be compromised by opening the device. One should have other seals for replacement ready before the opening. Alternatively, take care not to expose the liquid if there are no seals.

Beneath the head of each pentalobe screw is a black rubber gasket. The condition of the gaskets should be checked to ensure maximum protection against liquid and dust. If they are not in good condition, replace them too during reassembly.

The procedure should be done by an experienced person to avoid a permanent damage which is so costly.

A high qualoty tempered Screen Protector for iphone XR should be used if the damage is minor or to avoid more serious breakage. It should actually be put on  when the screen is still intact to prevent damage.

Alternatively one can ship the device to Apple for the replacement.
