The display of your iPhone SE (2nd generation) has a crack? No cracks, but your display remains black?
Even if your display no longer reacts to touch or your LCD flickers, it is still useful to replace the display. In this photo tutorial we will guide you step by step to replace your display yourself. This way you are not only completely independent of workshops, but also save money.
In the photos of this repair guide you can see the iPhone 8, because we reused the photos from the iPhone 8 manual in this guide. This is because it is almost identical in construction to the iPhone SE (2nd generation). All steps to be carried out have also remained the same.
Otherwise, we wish you good luck now! We look forward to your evaluation of our manual.
