iPhone 12 Mini Screen Replacement — Which Quality Should You Pick?
Replacing your iPhone 12 Mini 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 | Face ID | 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 Face ID working and the display quality is nearly identical to the original at roughly half the cost of refurbished.

Do I need special tools?
