I was there the other week

2018-11-22 05:26:18 UTC  

Wasn't a good day

I'm in a market for a new phone. I found a local person selling her 128gb iphone 7 for 200€. Only downside is that the screen is broken. Somehow the only scratches are on the screen, the body looks clean and new, I assume a case has been used. Would it be wise to buy a 20€ replacement screen from aliexpress? Are there any differences between the screens? What should I consider when looking for the replacement screen?

2018-11-22 07:50:28 UTC  

I'm assuming the screen is alive enough to verify its unlocked

2018-11-22 07:59:03 UTC  

yeah, if it's icloud locked you're shit out of luck

2018-11-22 08:07:50 UTC  

Yeah it's unlocked. The seller is a mid class white female so I think the case is that she may have gotten some money from home insurance and didn't want to pay local price of 200€ for screen replacement service and instead got a brand new phone.

2018-11-22 08:27:56 UTC  

cis-female or male to female?

2018-11-22 08:32:25 UTC  

Cis. I wouldn't be buying anything from a queer. Who knows what weird orgies and that phone could have gone through.

2018-11-22 08:37:04 UTC  

probably use for dilation

3rd party displays are gonna be hit and misss

2018-11-22 08:59:25 UTC  

not sure if theyll even work anymore

2018-11-22 09:16:57 UTC  

€20 is going to get you a crap screen

2018-11-22 09:17:16 UTC  

from what i heard the apple screen repairs are actually good value now, and obviously original parts

2018-11-22 09:18:49 UTC  

yeah they are

2018-11-22 09:23:08 UTC  

How much should I invest in a decent screen then? Where I live there are no official apple stores and the cheapest place doing iphone screen replacements charge 200€ or more.

2018-11-22 09:24:45 UTC  

I don't want to pay that much,if I can get a good replacement screen for say 50€ I'm happy

2018-11-22 09:29:49 UTC  

There is a store next town that sells a screen for 50€ and they claim that the quality is good. Plus the screen has a warranty too. Maybe I just get the screen from there. 200€ + 50€ for an 128gb iphone 7 still sounds reasonable to me.

2018-11-22 10:25:00 UTC  

@provisionforvoids why not just pay more for a non cracked phone?

2018-11-22 10:28:06 UTC  

Because the ones without a cracked screen cost at least 100€ more. I don't want 32gb version and I'd rather not get older than iphone 7.

2018-11-22 10:30:21 UTC  

do you have any experience with replacing screens?

2018-11-22 10:31:41 UTC  

Yes, I've done one galaxy s3, galaxy s4 and some old nokia lumia.

2018-11-22 10:32:23 UTC  

I've also replaced some other parts, most recently the usb port from my current rn3p

2018-11-22 10:32:40 UTC  

ah nice

2018-11-22 10:32:58 UTC  

then go for it, especially if the local screen has a warranty

2018-11-22 10:33:24 UTC  

Oh and almost forgot, I've replaced a screen from iphone 4 also

2018-11-22 10:33:32 UTC  

could you perhaps ask them for a model number or manufacturer to check if someone else has the same one and how close to the real thing is it?
