iPhone 4S Touchscreen + LCD Assembly : $79.95

Some screens have separate touchscreen glass and LCD components, therefore if the touchscreen does not respond and the image still displays properly, you only need to replace the touchscreen glass. If there is no display or a distorted display on your screen, the LCD screen needs to be replaced.

iPhone 4S Screen Replacement

The iPhone 4S has a 3.5-inch Gorilla Glass touchscreen with oleophobic coating. Gorilla Glass is mostly used on smartphones to resist scratches, and the oleophobic coating is so the screen will resist oils from your fingertips. iPhone 4S has a IPS TFT capacitive touchscreen with 16 million colours and a pixel density of 330 pixels per inch (Retina Display).

The screen for the iPhone 4S is an integrated assembly that is made up of glass/touchscreen or digitizer. There is no way of separating the digitizer from the LCD display. Thus, if the touchscreen or the digitizer breaks we need to replace the digitizer or touchscreen AND the LCD.

iPhone 4S screen replacement will resolve the following issues:

• There is a yellow tint to your iPhone 4S screen
• Your iPhone 4S won’t slide to unlock
• iPhone 4S glass is unresponsive to touch
• The iPhone 4S glass is cracked or broken
• Your iPhone 4S screen appears to be washed out
• iPhone 4S has dead pixels on the screen
• There are lines running through the display on your iPhone 4S

Unless you are an expert, trying to replace the digitizer/touchscreen yourself is hazardous to your happiness. These screens are very fragile and expensive. The glass or the digitizer is fused to the display/LCD, and the display is tightly fitted to the 4S’s frame. This screen replacement is best left to experienced technicians.

Unfortunately, we have had a number of DIY-enthusiasts, victims of the many online videos, straggling into our store clutching their newly purchased screens and their 4Ss, looking for help.

Our experts can fix your iPhone 4S screen in 1 hour.

Cracked or broken touchscreens/LCDs are the most common problems with the iPhone 4S. Many people mistakenly believe that the Gorilla Glass is unbreakable, which is untrue. Gorilla Glass is a great improvement for smartphones, making it less easy for the digitizer or screen to get scratched, but it is still easy for the display to crack or break.

Often, the digitizer or the LCD may not be visibly broken, but does fail to work due to repeated knocks, dings and drops. So, while the display has no visible crack, it might be white or unresponsive to the touch. After suffering multiple knocks and drops over time, just the slightest impact may render the screen inoperable. This is a perplexing but common experience for many users who can’t understand why a very slight impact resulted in the failure of their screen.

Screens can also bleed the liquid that is sealed within the LCD glass. This can occur weeks or months after the first serious impact/knock suffered by the screen. This impact often results in hair-line cracks that are typically invisible to the naked eye. Over time, however, repeated knocks can widen and deepen the cracks until the cracks are large enough to seep out liquid.
