Review on πŸ“± Mobkitfp iPhone SE Screen Replacement Fu'll Assembly Black for A1662,A1723, A1724 by Kenneth Cotton

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Patience is its own reward.

The most difficult repair I've done in a long time. No instructions. The link to the instructions page does not work. I found a third party YouTube video with a good rating and used it. The video used better quality tools than those that came with the kit. There are no complaints about accessories. They were fine and pre-assembled as far as possible. Not a 15 minute job. It took me several hours as I had to find workarounds to install the parts using the tools provided. Nothing prepared me for how small and delicate the interior details are. How tiny the screws were is unbelievable. Patience is better your middle name. Even with a magnifying glass, my best reader, and the brightest sunlight, it was almost impossible to see what I was doing. It's impossible to pick up the screws and install them with your fingers, and I don't have fat fingers. I will say that it is a great feeling of satisfaction when your phone is working like new again. Repair kiosks at Apple and local malls were charging close to $200 for repairs, so a $25 kit is very tempting. After a few hours of work, I had no confidence that I would ever collect it all again. I kept having to tell myself I still need a new phone to keep my frustration down. Have fun. All sets look about the same. The kit is not to blame. it will be you Have fun again.
