I just bought a replacement LCD screen assembly for my cracked screen iPhone 6 Plus from eBay but apparently it looks slightly different than the one installed (which I’m not sure is original too since I bought the phone used). The seller claims it’s an original part pulled off a used phone (not refurbished). Does anyone here have an experience to spot the difference if it wasn’t original?
This is the old screen (with red marks)
This is the one I bought (with blue marks) Notice the differences in the marked areas. So what do you guys think?? Thanks in advance!
Hmmm…first of all, it’s highly unlikely that anything bought off of eBay is a full original part. Ask yourself this question…was this an inexpensive screen compared to what quality vendors like iFixit, MobileSentrix or InjuredGadgets sells? If you answer yes, then there’s not much reason to believe the eBay vendor. What’s not clear here is whether or not the Front Camera & Sensor flex shown was already installed on the replacement screen or if you transferred it over. There is an Apple Logo on that flex so that would indicate that the flex is original. Take a closer look at the other flexes to see if the have logo’s. Also look for any stamps or stickers. That would indicate aftermarket parts.
