Broken smartphone screen: How to replace it?

Thousands of smartphone screens shatter every day in front of the disappointed and regretful gaze of their owners.

Some don't hesitate in the slightest before getting rid of what's left of it. Others, on the other hand, hold on to their phones despite the breakage, perhaps because of financial imperatives or pure sentimentalism. They are the ones who often move heaven and earth to find a screen that matches their phones and replace the old one.

Broken smartphone screen or cracked glass

When a smartphone is hit hard, the owner of the phone often abuses the language by declaring the screen broken or out of use. This is really an abuse since a deep diagnosis can reveal on the contrary a simple crack in the glass which serves as protection for the screen.

A fairly basic test verifies whether this is of course the smartphone screen or if it is the glass.

In the first case, the screen is often full of ink, making it difficult to use the phone. If the phone to be repaired is an iPhone XS, for example, the professional can get a new iPhone XS screen delivered and give your phone a second life.

In the second case, the user has no difficulty handling the screen, and the touch panel works very well. All he has to do is go to a small neighborhood store where he can get a new window and change the old one. It's that simple.
