Flylink® LCD Touch Screen Digitizer Replacement For Apple iPhone 5S LCD Screen Digitizer Touch Glass Assembly Black

Was pretty gutted when I smashed my screen. Was about to part with the money for Apple to do it until I read up on these replacement screens. Phones warranty was nearly up anyway so I thought why not give it a shot, I'm by no means an electronics expert, but I have tinkered in the past. Was pretty straight forward while watching the vid guides (I had two up and where I wasn't quite sure about something I referred to the other, which worked out pretty well). Took about an hour but someone more proficient could do it in half that time, and I was in no rush. As long as you're careful with the ribbons, and as long as you keep everything you take off and in place with it's accompanying screws it's a doddle. The screws are small and fiddly but again I'm sure there's no rush, the priority is to get your phone working again. If a bit gets too fiddly after a while just walk away from it and drink some tea : )The only thing probably worth mentioning would be that when you snap it back into place make sure the little 'hooks' at the top of the screen curl around hinges on the chassis. Mine didn't (my fault) the first time around and when ever I snapped the full fascia back into place the top protruded a tiny bit. After a bit wrangling about nothing changed and I was just about to live with the fault and chalk it down to because of a defect in the third party manufacturing process when I noticed I had flatted the small hooks on the screen the first time around..after prising these open slightly with a razor blade (which came in handy throughout the process btw) it fitted snugly and was good as new. Fired the phone up and all was fine. Extremely pleased : )I know the screen won't hold up to the same force as an original and as such I'll be buying a protector. But for now I'm over the moon. Product as described and cheap as chips compared to what even a high street repair shop would charge. Don't let all the negative ratings put you off. As long as you're not a complete imbecile you'll do just fine. I'd peg most of those bad reviews down to user error.

Not a bad replacement screen no problems installing it but not of great quality. it's in the correct price bracket you get what you pay for an after market generic screen that will do the job it's intended for nothing more nothing less

No complaints, perfect solution to a severely smashed screen at a great price. Fairly easy to fit (follow the various YouTube videos as a guide). It's been in use for around a month now and cannot fault it - in side by side comparison with a 5S with original screen it's just as responsive and the brightness / colours seem the same.

Great screen, fitted well and worked great. I had my phone knocked out of my hands and it landed on the floor, screens cracked again, I thought no problems, I can buy another for about £25. This screen has gone up from £24 to £40ish.. Which is a shame as it's almost as much as getting someone else to do it.

EXCELENT PRODUCT!The only reason the screen would be 'ghost touching' is if the actual phone/framework is bent out of shape. Easy way to test this before purchasing this item is to place your phone onto a FLAT surface and slide a small, thin peice of paper underneath it on all angles, corners and sides. If the paper slides under the phone at any point then your phone is unfortunately bent.

This replacement was ok. Works fine but with some dead pixels and a noticeably more washed out colour than the original. But for the price I wouldn't expect genuine apple quality

Perfect replacement although some grammar mistakes on the informational leaflet but instructions on YouTube, instructables etc solve this problem. Will be buying again when I inevitably smash my screen for a 3rd time

For the price, you get what you are paying for.Tools - The supplied tools for the installation of this were of unsatisfactory quality/standard. The pry tools are very weak and they bent and crumbled during the process. The strongest thing was the guitar pick provided, but it is too thick: a thinner pick at 0.75mm would have been much better.Packaging - The packaging used is just a very small padded envelope that is stuffed and hard to open.Screen - The screen itself when installed and working is great. Just keep in mind that if brought into an apple store / retailer for an additional repair, they can tell quite easily that you are using an after market part without having to open the device.Instruction guide - The instruction guide included is an A5 sheet of paper in a foreign language with a link to a youtube video on it. I found the video hard to follow as it had no instructions on screen or listed. The video was simply a person replacing their screen; not showing key parts of the procedure.I would buy this again if I had to.
