for iPhone 8 Screen Replacement Black 4.7 inch, Full Assembly 3D Touch LCD Display Screen Digitizer with Front Camera+Earpiece+Sensors+Waterproof Seal+Repair Tools+Screen Protector

I like this screen a lot so far. It was delivered timely on the 7th October 2025 and installed on 10/9/25. The price is great for a screen w/ earpiece/proximity sensor and metal plate pre-installed. Having the metal mount plate between the digitizer and phone internals and the earpiece already on it make it a lot easier & quicker to install. Everything seems to be working (I ordered, installed and sent back one of a different brand/seller that wouldn’t recognize any of three home buttons before ordering this one). If I had any complaints it would be that it’s too sensitive to touch, although that might be in comparison to what I’m used to or that my hands are dry and kind of beat up from packing to move. I did put a hardened glass screen protector on it. The other thing that is weird is I have the phone set to auto lock after five minutes. It doesn’t lock unless it sits over night (about 6.5-7 hours while I’m sleeping, and I can’t get my Apple watch set up. I don’t know if the screen has anything to do with the settings in the phone, so take that into I consideration and I’d love if someone could tell me if it does or not. That might be the app crashing, and I’ll update later if I’m wrong about that. I’m giving it 5 stars for the positive attributes, and I do consider the phone to have been a little crazy for years. To let you know where I’m coming from, I’ve had this 7Plus for years and replaced many screens because I am clumsy sometimes and I’ll keep it as long as there are updates because I prefer to keep as much waste out of the environment as I can.

I bought a replacement battery for my 12 mini a few months back, then started having intermittent issues with the touch screen after I accidentally took it in my swimming pool. So I ordered this kit and decided to do both installs. I went to YouTube school on the install of both pieces before I started. My conclusion after finishing this job is it's a lot harder than most of the comments would imply. And of course the people putting out YouTube videos do this all the time and have the tools and work environment complimentary to the job. I'm an electronics tech but this is my first try with an iPhone screen: First step is to get the phone hot enough to soften the evil adhesive that Apple puts inside the 12 Mini. One of the videos the guy even commented on how sticky the glue on this particular model is. In the videos they have a special mat that they put the phone down on that heats the whole screen evenly all the way around, and they simply stick the plastic pick in and pry the screen off. If, like me you use a hair dryer, this process is very difficult...you need to get the whole rim of the phone super hot to even make a dent in this stuff. Probably should have used a heat gun but I was afraid of getting it too hot...no worries there. As a result I didn't get it hot enough and ended up trashing the screen, it came off in 3 layers, the outer touch, the substrate, and left the rest still glued in leaving the sensor array attached to the main phone body. Even after that I had a hard time prying the last piece off the phone frame and getting rid of all the black glue. The other thing that looks easy in videos is replacing the tiny screws that hold the plates and sensors in. These things are as small as a deer tick and twice as annoying. There are 3 bit styles and unless your eyes are really sharp you need a magnifier to tell the diff. Magnetizing them helps a bit. Also a magnetic tray from Harbor Freight to hold the screws is a good thing. If you have sausage fingers or the shakes you will have a tough time with these. A lighted magnifier is very helpful for this whole job. Anyway after those difficulties I got the thing back together and was gratified to see it light up and work. It now gives me a message that I don't have a genuine Apple battery or display, not sure if I will lose any functionality but we'll see. The display looks good and the touch works well. The kit comes with all the tools you need (except of course a heated mat LOL). It comes with one strong pick to help pry the screen off. Find a guitarist and borrow a half dozen more because you need to hold the screen back as you go around it once you finally get it to give up and separate from the phone. A set of tweezers, 3 screwdrivers, an adhesive gasket so you can reinstall the glue that made it such a pain in the first place. If you leave that out, which is tempting, I presume it would lose it's water resistance. It even comes with a nice glass screen protector. A pic attached of what happens when you don't get it hot enough and get the pic between the top layer of the screen...

Well seeing as the same thing I ordered from the same supplier worked for less than 10 days and here I am ordering another....everything on the phone worked fine except the screen would not recognize any touch. so the screen would not function - the buttons worked fine but nothing from the screen...can't get into it if you can not enter a pass code. I ordered another....I know probably not the smartest thing. And then drove home on lunch the day it said it was supposed to have been there (was supposed to be there basically overnight so figured the standard 3 o clock lunch and I would have the new one.....yeah wasted trip and more money wasted on the product). So now I have the first purchase - a second screen purchase and gas money....heck I should of just used the 100 towards a new phone at this point...much less the money I paid to have the screen installed. Still have not even had the second one delivered yet and seriously wondering why I did order another from the same supplier....but honestly figured they are all the same supplier just different names....

Works as advertised. The screen isn't quite as nice as the OEM screen but it's 80-90% of the way there and in a fantastic price range. It's honestly not that hard to fix yourself especially if you have any sort of experience working with small electronics or tech. If the right user for this is phone 12 or 12pro is in need of a affordable alternative for screen replacement on their iPhone, this will be relatively easy to install, and has a decent polling rate, color gamut, and contrast ratio. I cam easily recommend at its current price point in this category. Good, decent product and a affordable alternative.

2 years and still working

...da wünscht sich einer der Nachkommen sein erstes iPhone und nach nur wenigen Wochen stellt sich heraus, dass auch bei diesen Geräten die Displays nicht unkaputtbar sind...wow...welch Erkenntnis. Da ich selber ein kleiner Bastler bin und auch schon bei anderen Smartphones die Displays gewechselt habe, war es mir hier einen Versuch wert. Display inkl. Zubehör (ich mag das kleine Magnet-Pad ) wurde sehr schnell geliefert und auch eine Verlinkung zu einem sehr gutem YT-Tutorial war dabei. Goil. Das Display ließ sich problemlos verbauen und die Qualität ist top! Also, keine Angst und auch mal selber machen! Fazit: sehr empfehlenswert!

Recomendado al 100% todas las pantallas que me encontré eran bastante caras, así que me decidí por comprar esta. El resultado no puede ser mejor. Muy contento

it works perfectly ! thanks

La camera frontale a arrêter de fonctionner quelque jours après l’achat je ne suis pas satisfait du produit
