What’s the difference between the two? The price from iFixit’s site is roughly $129.00 and I see many on eBay for for $30 Free Shipping brand new from U.S. This is how ones described.. iPhone 4S Outer Glass + LCD Screen + Touch Digitizer Panel, Preassembled, White Frame and LCD Preattached Brand New, not pulled from a working phone High quality LCD screen replacement part. It is used to repair faulty screen: display problems, dead pixels, cracked LCD screens, wrong color issues. Each assembly is tested before shipping and are 100% working FREE 7 piece tool kit is included.

Most likely warranty. However you may notice slight differences, I bought a replacement LCD on amazon 30$, and found the materials they used for coloring was not what came on a default iphone, and it actually affected reception of cell signal. This was because I didn’t get a standard white or black one however. If you stick with standard colors, you really shouldnt have a problem.

Quality, warranty, and tech support. Do you get a 6 month warranty from the Ebay seller? Also, there are plenty of things “from the US” that are from Chinese companies who keep a warehouse in NJ or something in order to tell people on Ebay that they ship from the US.

I know the $25-$30 ones from ebay and tmart.com has a lot of quality problems. Out of the 4 I tried (2 from ebay sellers, 2 from tmart), the 2 from ebay failed within a day or two. One of them has a poorly manufactured connector. The 2 from tmart.com has very poor viewing angles. Color would become psychedelic with a slight tilt. I didn’t have problem with a $20 new iPhone 4 LCD from ebay seller 2 years ago. But this recent purchase of $25 iPhone 4S LCDs showed a lot of problems. Certainly, the appearance of the quality seems high with the naked eye. But I could see the subtle defects in the LCD connectors under the magnifying glass that would not provide a proper contact. The LCD viewing angle problems is likely in the materials and/or assembly of the LCD itself. Anyhow, low priced aftermarkets seems to be hit and miss depending on the materials and manufacturing quality of the particular batch.

I use replacements from sunsky-online.com I have never had an issue and they are $30. Heck if they dont work you could buy 4 screens for ifixit price

$129 for a iPhone 4 screen is mental I can get iphone 4 screens with genuine lcd from my supplier for £22 and warrenty
