A cracked or malfunctioning iPhone screen can be confusing sometimes the phone looks damaged, but still works fine. Other times, it may appear minor while the touch or display continues to worsen.
So the common question is:
👉 Should you repair the screen or replace it completely?
In this guide, we’ll help you identify the correct solution based on your screen condition, symptoms, and repair cost and how iFixicare can fix it at your doorstep.
🧩 Mobile Screen Repair vs Screen Replacement - What’s the Difference?
Before choosing, it’s important to understand:
| Type | What It Means | When It’s Required |
|---|---|---|
| Screen Repair (Glass Only) | Only the top layer is damaged | Small cracks, no touch/display issue |
| Screen Replacement (Full Assembly) | Glass + touchscreen + display replaced | Touch not working, black lines, display bleeding, dead pixels |
Now, let’s break down the exact signs.
🚨 Signs You Only Need a Screen Repair (Glass)
If the damage is cosmetic and the phone is functioning normally, you may only need glass repair.
Small cracks but display works fine
Touch response is smooth
No black spots or colored lines
Brightness and colors appear normal
Face ID and TrueTone still working
This is the most affordable fix.
💡 Note: Newer iPhones (X and above) usually require full replacement because the glass is fused to the display but iFixicare offers pocket-friendly screen options.
🔧 Signs You Need Complete Screen Replacement
If any of these symptoms appear, a full-screen replacement is the safest solution:
❌ Touch not responding properly
❌ Display flickering or dim
❌ Green, pink, purple or white vertical lines
❌ Black bleeding spots on the screen
❌ Screen flashes randomly
❌ Ghost touch (typing on its own)
❌ Full screen blackout
These are signs of internal LCD/OLED or digitizer damage.
