Identify OEM VS Non-OEM iPhone 4/4s and iPhone 5/5c/5s

Identify OEM VS Non-OEM iPhone 4/4s and 5/5c/5s


How to identify OEM and Non-OEM LCD screens is just one of the methods every cellphone repair shop should be auditing to ensure that they are not being taken advantage of by their LCD screens recyclers. (www.recellparts.com)

It still seems to be an area that has many mixed methods and varying identification methods.

With that said, there are dozens of obvious and non-obvious ways to distinguish OEM and Non-OEM. The followings are we try to instill two main ways which are simplicity and accuracy.


The following picture is original iPhone 4 OEM LCD Screen.

The rule for OEM (Original) iPhone 4/4s is simple:

A wavy looking “V” centers across the middle of the digitizer flex cable.





(Picture 2: Copy iPhone 4 LCD Screen)


Notice:  there is no “V” on a copy/non-original LCD digitizer flex cable.

iPhone5/5c/5s Original vs Non-Original




For iPhone 5/5c/5s we also use just one main rule:



A Green ring where the camera holder is located = Original LCD (Pictured on top)


If the camera ring isn’t green = Non-Original.





























Other Methods to Identify

-colored screens

-stickers
-stamps
-laser etchings on the QR code

-serial numbers on the back of the LCD screen

-differences in the white lettering on the flex cables

-water beading on the touch panel

The other methods can be used to identify OEM vs Non-OEM on LCD screens where the “V” is in question. But if you’re going for a quick and simple audit, the “V” test will hold 98% true.

Other methods can be used to identify OEM or Non-OEM condition but require a lot more effort to get to the same result that these two single rules will immediately identify over 98% original and non-original cracked screens.


A mix of all the other methods will result in differences between OEM and Non-OEM. The above information just your reference.
