Is your iPhone 12 or 12 Pro screen cracked? You're not alone — the iPhone 12 display and iPhone 12 Pro display are among the most sought-after replacement parts in Romania. In this comprehensive guide, we explain everything you need to know before buying a replacement screen: display types, compatibility, prices, and installation tips.
Why does the iPhone 12 / 12 Pro display break?
iPhone 12 and 12 Pro use an original Super Retina XDR OLED panel, protected by Ceramic Shield glass — one of the most durable on the market. However, drops on corners or hard surfaces can cause:
- Cracks or shattered glass
- Black spots or lines on the screen
- Non-functional or partially functional touch
- Completely black screen, even if the phone powers on
In all these cases, the solution is to replace the iPhone 12 / 12 Pro display.
What types of displays exist for iPhone 12 and 12 Pro?
1. InCell Display (IPS LCD) – Recommended for value for money
InCell technology integrates the touch layer directly into the LCD panel, offering a thin, precise, and durable screen. Although the original iPhone 12 comes with OLED, a compatible InCell display offers:
- ✅ Natural colors and good brightness
- ✅ Precise touch, without delays
- ✅ Affordable price compared to OLED
- ✅ Excellent visibility in sunlight
- ✅ No risk of burn-in
2. OLED Display – Quality close to original
OLED screens offer absolute blacks, infinite contrast, and vibrant colors — identical to the original. They are recommended if you use your phone intensively for video or gaming, but they come at a higher price.
iPhone 12 Display vs iPhone 12 Pro Display – What's the difference?
Although the two models look similar, there are important differences:
| Specification | iPhone 12 | iPhone 12 Pro |
|---|---|---|
| Diagonal | 6.1" | 6.1" |
| Resolution | 2532 x 1170 px | 2532 x 1170 px |
| Original Technology | OLED Super Retina XDR | OLED Super Retina XDR |
| Connector | Identical | Identical |
| Display Compatibility | ✅ The same display works on both models | |
Good news: the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro display is the same — you can use the same replacement screen for both models!
