Galaxy S21 Screen Replacement — Which Quality Should You Pick?
Replacing your Galaxy S21 screen takes about 30 minutes with basic tools. Every screen below is tested before shipping and comes with a lifetime warranty. All options restore full touch sensitivity and display function — the difference is in the panel technology.
| Quality | Technology | Fingerprint | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| In-Cell | LCD | No | Budget repairs, resale prep |
| Soft OLED | Aftermarket OLED | Yes | Best value — closest to original |
| Refurbished | OEM-grade refurbished (Grade A) | Yes | Premium — factory-level quality |
Not sure which to pick? Soft OLED is what most customers choose — it keeps the fingerprint sensor working and the display quality is nearly identical to the original at roughly half the cost of refurbished.

Common Questions
Is this compatible with my Galaxy S21?
Yes — every screen on this page fits the Galaxy S21 (models SM-G990F, SM-G990F/DS).
Do I need special tools?
You will need a pentalobe screwdriver, suction cup, and a plastic spudger. Our repair tool kit includes everything for this job.
Will I lose the fingerprint sensor?
Only with the In-Cell (LCD) option. Soft OLED and Refurbished screens both support the fingerprint sensor when you transfer the original sensor from your old screen.
