Why do I get a message after my iPhone 11 Series Screen is Replaced ?

Background

Apple doesn’t sell parts to 3rd parties unlike other many other manufacturers.  In order to get an original OEM (original Apple equipment), it has to be done by Apple themselves, an Apple Authorized dealer or it has to be refurbished (used).  Here are your choices.  The issue with the message appearing is applicable only the iPhone 11 and up devices.

Option 1 – Have it fixed by Apple

Apple will do repairs if you are on AppleCare.  If you are not they will charge for any work and it is bound to be costly.  Click here to book

Option 2 – Have it fixed by a 3rd party repair shop using OEM refurbished screen

Third party shops will be far cheaper but they in general cannot access new OEM screens as they are not sold.  Therefore they would have to access a used refurbished screen which is not easily available and tend to be expensive.

Option 3 – Have it fixed by a 3rd party repair shop using a new 3rd party screen

These screens are made in China and vary in quality (most are very good).  However the cost of this type of repair offers the best value and most consumers will never see any difference between these 3rd party screens and an OEM one.

The only thing to note is that upon a repair you will get a nag message – “If you need to replace your iPhone display, it’s important for certified technicians who use genuine Apple display parts to repair it,” the page reads. “Replacements not performed by Apple, authorized service providers, or certified technicians might not follow proper safety and repair procedures and could result in improper function or issues with display quality or safety.”

This notification will appear on the affected iPhone’s lock screen for 4 days after a problem is first detected, then it’ll move to the main settings menu for 15 more days. After all that, it gets pushed away to Settings -> General -> About.

Apple does this in order to generate more service revenue and discourage third party repairs.  The actual repair is actually very straightforward, contrary to what Apple tries to represent. All screens we sell are warrantied for 90 days.

Notes and References

• iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max come originally with an OLED screen.  3rd party repair shops will give you the option to use either LCD or OLED with the LCD being far cheaper.  The quality of OLED is far higher but for most users it’s not noticeable.
• Battery replacement may also trigger a similar message.
