Hispider IPHONE SCREEN – DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TFT, OLED & ORIGINAL LCD
A lot of people are asking why the latest iPhone X to iPhone 14 Pro Max screen replacement is expensive. Reason is because they use OLED LCD. OLED, short for organic light-emitting diode, is a type of display technology. It differs from the previous widely used iPhone LCD (liquid crystal display) tech by creating light within every pixel that makes up its picture, instead of requiring a separate backlighting system.
It’s not all that surprising to see the price jump up so much. Reason is, Apple has to go to Samsung to get the OLED panels on the front of the latest iPhone. Because Samsung is owning 95% market share of this LCD technology. Plus, they’re likely being supplied in limited quantities and due to production complexities like carving out that notch, the price on these is going to be even higher.
What are the choices for the new iPhone LCD?
There are many choices to replace the latest iPhone LCD in the aftermarket, but the most common available LCD replacement is TFT, GX Flexible OLED and Original. Below we’re going to share with you the differences among these 3 types of LCD.

The picture above are the displays under the microscope. These displays are consist of pixels of 3 colors: green, blue and red. But they are in different shapes. The view from the side, TFT-LCD shows reddish color.
As for the brightness, due to the difference in the material of the display panel, the brightness of the OLED screens is generally higher than the TFT screens. The display color of Original iPhone X screen is not so much different with OLED, but in term of power consumption and temperature (1 hour video play), original screen have the lowest power consumption and temperature rise followed by OLED and TFT screen have the highest power consumption and temperature rise. In term of hydrophobicity, all quality grades feature great hydrophobicity.
So which latest iPhone LCD is the best?

Say for example, if you’re on a tight budget and using your iPhone for gaming purpose. Getting OLED screen is the best option due to it’s overall performance and the cost to replace is affordable.
