At first glance, a phone repair that costs $30–$50 less than competitors may seem like a smart choice. But in most cases, those “bargain” repairs involve low-grade parts and unqualified technicians—a combination that can lead to recurring problems and unexpected costs down the road.
🔧 Common Issues Caused by Low-Quality Parts
1. Poor Display Performance
Cheap replacement screens often suffer from:
- Washed-out or inaccurate colors
- Weak brightness or low contrast
- Delayed or inconsistent touch response
- Higher risk of screen flickering or ghosting
2. Battery Malfunctions
Low-cost, non-certified batteries can:
- Drain unusually fast
- Overheat during charging
- Swell and damage internal components
- In some cases, pose safety risks (fire, explosion)
3. Incompatible Hardware
Generic parts can disable or degrade key features:
- Face ID or fingerprint recognition may stop working
- True Tone and auto-brightness may fail
- Wireless charging can become inconsistent or non-functional
4. Structural Issues
Improperly sized or poorly made parts can lead to:
- Loose frames and buttons
- Raised screens or misalignment
- Cracks or gaps that let in dust and moisture
5. Repeat Repairs
Many customers who opt for ultra-cheap repairs return within weeks needing the same repair again—or worse, multiple components now damaged. That “cheaper” repair ends up costing 2–3x more in the long run.
