Title: Replaced cracked iPhone screen!
Post by: thriftyc on August 20, 2019, 08:47:13 PM

Replaced iPhone screen.  Apple store was going to charge close to $200.  I ordered an aftermarket for $22, installed it and works great!

Nice! We replaced the screen on one of our iPhone's a few weeks ago. It's definitely a good skill to learn and easy to do.

Unless you are a genius, and I know you're not because you don't work in he Apple Store, this is impossible.

In other news, my cheap laptop is cracking on the back panel from being opened and closed for the past couple years. A new comp of the same quality is $700. To get the whole thing updated with a new back panel is $100.

nice work, which model was it?  I've replaced a bunch of batteries but never the screen.
