Difference between Screen Repair and Screen Replacement

The Screen Repair solution aims to make repairs more affordable and reduce wastage for a greener environment. This new repair solution is only available for selected models and when the LCD display is damaged with no other signs of physical damage to the device; this includes dents and chips to the frame. 

Screen Repair- Only repairs the phone's display screen and will hence be more cost-efficient than Screen Replacement. 

Screen Replacement- Replaces all components of the screen which include the display screen, frame and other peripheral parts. Previously, only the Screen Replacement solution was used for all damaged phone screens.
