How to Replace a Apple iPhone 6s Plus LCD Screen Assembly


It is a bit disappointing that Apple doesn’t not introduce the replacement of Corning Gorilla glass with Sapphire glass. If you once again shatter your iPhone 6s LCD and you have to move into consideration whether you should buy a new phone or replace a new screen by a repair tech or yourself if you didn’t subscribe any Apple Care plan.
Once again, please don’t consider to replace your iPhone 6s LCD if you are not confident or you don’t think you are a handy person since replacing a iPhone 6s LCD assembly needs extreme care since a 3D touch layer is introduced and any careless mistake will damage the 3D touch feature.
