iPhone 12 cracked front glass: glass only or the screen?

When the front glass of an iPhone 12 cracks, replacing only the glass may be possible if the OLED panel underneath has a flawless picture and touch; with stains, lines or touch faults, the screen is replaced. The iPhone 12 and 12 Pro share a screen size; the 12 mini and 12 Pro Max differ.

  2. Test touch. Touch every area of the screen.
  3. See it together at diagnosis. If glass only is possible, the difference and risk are explained.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

Can only the front glass be replaced on an iPhone 12?

It may be possible if the OLED panel’s picture and touch are flawless; with stains or lines on the panel, the screen is replaced.

02

Are the iPhone 12 and 12 Pro screens the same size?

Yes, both are 6.1 inches; the 12 mini and 12 Pro Max are different sizes.

03

Can I keep using it with cracked glass?

Glass pieces can cut your finger and moisture can get in through the crack; manage briefly with a protector or case and bring it in for repair.

04

Will a glass replacement delete my data?

Data is usually preserved during a repair; still, you need to back up your data before the repair starts (backups are the customer’s responsibility).

Phone works but the screen is black: what to do

If your phone rings or vibrates but the screen is black, the phone is on; the problem is the screen or its connection. Force restart and charge it first. Shine a torch close to the screen in the dark: a faint picture means a backlight fault. If it started after a drop or liquid, the screen is usually replaced.
