OLED vs LCD — which screen should you pick?
Premium Soft OLED
Matches the original display in brightness, black levels, True Tone and color accuracy. Best for phones you plan to keep, and it carries our limited lifetime warranty.
LCD (budget)
A lower-cost display that restores full function and touch. Slightly dimmer with less contrast — ideal for older phones, trade-ins, or getting your data off a dead screen.

Screen replacement FAQs
How much is a screen replacement in Charlotte, NC?
Prices depend on the model and screen tier. iPhone screen replacement starts around $79 for older models; current Pro models run higher with premium Soft OLED. Every price we charge is listed by model on this page and on our pricing page — no bait-and-switch.
How long does screen replacement take?
About 15 minutes for most iPhones and about 20 minutes for Samsung Galaxy and Motorola. You can wait in the shop — no drop-off required for standard screen work.
Do you replace just the glass or the whole display?
We only do full-display replacements. Glass-only refurbishing is cheaper up front but commonly causes touch failures and dead spots later.
What is the difference between OLED and LCD screens?
Soft OLED matches the original display in color, brightness and True Tone behavior and carries our limited lifetime warranty. LCD is a budget option that looks good but is dimmer, and it is a smart choice for older phones, trade-ins or short-term use.
Is my data safe during a screen replacement?
Yes. A display swap does not touch your storage. We never ask for your passcode unless you want us to test Face ID or True Tone after the repair.
Do you offer a warranty on replacement screens?
Yes — a limited lifetime warranty on manufacturing defects for premium screens we install, for as long as you own the device. Accidental new damage is not covered.
Can you come to me for a screen replacement?
Yes. Free pickup and delivery within 20 miles of the shop — we cover the courier cost, so you never have to drive.

What Charlotte customers say
"The best customer service ever. Got my stuff quickly fixed and the best screen protection I've ever had. Thank you so much!"
"The back of my iPhone was shattered and I thought it would be a $500 repair. Freddie guided me to the best remedy and got the work done quickly, affordably, and professionally. It looks like the Apple Store fixed it! By far the best and most transparent cell phone repair company in Charlotte."
