5 signs your iPhone display needs replacing (and what it costs)

An iPhone display needs replacing when lines appear on the screen, spots, areas that do not respond to touch, cracked glass or a flickering image. These problems do not fix themselves and, left as they are, can affect other components too. At iRestore Chisinau we replace the display the same day, with quality parts and warranty.

The 5 clear signs

1. Cracked or chipped glass. Even if the image shows, shards cut your finger and let dust and moisture reach the components.
2. Areas that do not respond to touch. If the keyboard or part of the screen does not react, the touch layer is damaged.
3. Vertical or horizontal lines. Colored or black stripes mean the panel is affected and will get worse.
4. Spots, halos or dark areas. A sign the display fluid or backlight has issues.
5. A flickering screen or ghost touches. The phone does things on its own or the image trembles, even without you touching it.

Why display quality matters

A cheap market screen can have washed-out colors, weak brightness, imprecise touch, or lose features like True Tone. At iRestore we use quality displays suited to each model, so the phone looks and responds like before. The difference shows every day, with every touch.

Cost and time

Display replacement on an iPhone starts from 799 lei, depending on the model. The job is usually done the same day, often under an hour. See the exact price for your model in the calculator on the Service page: pick your model and tap "Display" to book directly.

What to do until you reach the service

If the glass is cracked, avoid pressing the broken area and put a temporary film on so the shards do not spread. Keep the phone away from water, because a cracked screen no longer protects the inside. The sooner you bring it in, the more you avoid extra damage.
