Which screen should I choose?
If your iPhone originally used an OLED display, the OLED option is usually the best balance of price and display quality. The LCD option costs less and restores normal use, but colour, contrast and black levels will not be as close to the original screen. Genuine Apple screens are the closest match where available, but cost more.
A lower-cost display replacement. It restores normal use, but display quality is not as close to the original OLED screen on models that were designed for OLED.
A higher-quality screen option that is closer to the display technology used in OLED iPhones, with better contrast, black levels and colour than LCD.
The closest match to the original repair route where available, using a genuine Apple display part at a higher price.
