Genuine Apple part
A part made for Apple. The phone recognises it and shows it in Settings without any notice. We can get it for many models and do so regularly. The price is higher than for a replacement part, so ask us about it in advance.
With every repair you want to know what you get for the price. We fit quality replacement parts with a two-year warranty, or genuine Apple parts. Nothing cheaper. Here is what that means in practice and what you will see in Settings after the repair.
Four categories are sold on the market. We fit the first three and always tell you the part type in advance.
This is what we fit at
A part made for Apple. The phone recognises it and shows it in Settings without any notice. We can get it for many models and do so regularly. The price is higher than for a replacement part, so ask us about it in advance.
A new part from suppliers we have worked with for years. Its technical parameters match the original. The phone works as before and Battery Health is shown; the phone just adds a notice that it could not verify the part as an Apple part. There is only one original, the one from Apple, and we never pass another part off as one. For a battery it costs extra.
A quality part we set up for your phone. Settings then shows it without the notice. It is still not an Apple part; the phone just accepts it without the remark. These are the parts we fit as standard, with a two-year warranty.
You will not find this here
A cheap part the phone cannot read and that cannot be set up for the phone. Battery Health is often not shown at all, only the notice remains, and the part tends to have worse endurance and a shorter life. We do not fit such parts; we could not give a two-year warranty on them.
Older iPhones (up to iPhone X) do not check where parts come from. No notice appears and configuration is neither needed nor possible. We fit a quality replacement part in them, or a genuine part on request.
Three options to choose from; the first one is our standard. The fourth column is for comparison only, we do not fit such batteries.
Applies to the options we fit
Original capacity is the capacity of the Apple battery according to publicly available certification documents. Apple does not publish it, so treat it as a guide.
Applies to all options
Where to find it on the phone and what it means.
Settings, Battery, Battery Health
After the replacement it shows the state of the new battery. It is also shown for a battery the phone does not recognise as an Apple part; the phone just adds a notice that it could not verify it.
Settings, General, About
From iPhone XR and XS onwards the phone shows here which parts have been replaced. For an Apple part it says so; for other parts it says Unknown Part. It does not affect how the phone works. A buyer will see it when you sell, though, which is why we tell you the part type in advance.
Stay original
When replacing the battery or display we keep the original sensors in the phone. Face ID and Touch ID are therefore not affected by the replacement.
Between the screen and the phone body
We try to keep the original adhesive, as it holds best. If it gets damaged we add new adhesive; with a display replacement we use the one that comes with the new display. Nobody can guarantee water resistance once a phone has been opened, so better keep it out of water.

As standard a new quality battery, configured so that the phone shows it in Settings without the notice. For a surcharge you can have a battery with the same technical parameters as the original, and for many models we can also get a genuine Apple part at a higher price.
No. There is only one original, the one from Apple. The replacement part we fit matches it in technical parameters and the phone works with it as before, but it is a different part and we say so.
Yes. With the standard configured battery it is shown without the notice. With the battery with the same technical parameters the phone adds a notice that it could not verify the battery as an Apple part.
With the standard configured battery nothing special, it shows without the notice. With a replacement display or the battery with the same technical parameters it shows Unknown Part. It does not affect how the phone works or our two-year warranty. With a genuine Apple part it shows an Apple part.
We keep the original adhesive wherever we can, as it holds best. If it gets damaged we add new adhesive. A new display comes with its own seal.
Allow about an hour and a half for diagnostics and around half an hour for the replacement itself. Usually while you wait. It is best to book a time straight away.
The battery with the same technical parameters matches the original in capacity, voltage and lifespan and has the same type of management electronics, which is why it costs extra. The standard configured battery is a quality part with a two-year warranty.
No. The displays we fit reach the edges and have the same bezels as the original, the bottom one included. Colours, viewing angles and touch are tested before fitting.
No. We fit either quality replacement parts with a two-year warranty or genuine Apple parts. Nothing else.
