The iPhone 15 Pro Max is Apple's flagship, featuring an innovative Super Retina XDR display with ProMotion technology and incredible color reproduction. However, even this durable screen isn't immune to damage. A bump, drop, crack, or sensor issue may require a display repair. In this article, we'll explore when repairs are necessary, the available options, and why it's important to trust the professionals.
When is an iPhone 15 Pro Max display repair needed?
-
Cracks or chips in the glass 💥
Even a small crack can grow over time and lead to complete destruction of the screen. -
Spots, streaks, or flickering 🌈
These are signs of damage to the display matrix or cable. -
The sensor doesn't work 🖐️
The screen may turn on but not respond to touch - in this case, a replacement is necessary. -
Burnt areas or dull image 🔦
It is especially noticeable when maximum brightness is enabled. -
Complete lack of image ⚫
The phone may work (there is sound and vibration), but the screen remains black.
Repair options
-
Glass replacement
If only the glass is damaged, replacing it while preserving the original sensor may be the only option. This is a more cost-effective option. -
Complete replacement of the display module
If the matrix or sensor is damaged, or there are problems with color rendering, a new “glass + display + sensor” module is installed. -
Restoring a cable or controller
Sometimes the problem is not with the display itself, but with the electronics that control its operation.
Why is it important to install original displays?
Apple equips iPhone 15 Pro Max with a display that supports 120Hz ProMotion, HDR, True Tone and precise color calibration. Installing a non-original screen:
-
reduces the brightness and saturation of colors;
-
removes the smoothness of animations;
-
can disable True Tone and Face ID features;
-
fails faster.
Therefore, it is better to use original spare parts or high-quality premium analogues.
How does repair work at the service center?
-
📋 Device diagnostics.
-
🛠️ Disassembling the case using professional tools.
-
🔧 Replacement of glass or the entire module.
-
💻 Test True Tone, Face ID, and other features.
-
✅ Final testing of the device.
Cost and terms
The repair cost depends on the nature of the damage: replacing just the glass is cheaper than installing a new display module. Repairs typically take from 1 to 3 hours, depending on the complexity.
Conclusion
Repairing an iPhone 15 Pro Max display is a procedure that requires precision and professional expertise. If you notice cracks, streaks, or an incorrectly functioning touchscreen, it's best to contact a service center immediately. This will preserve all of your smartphone's functions and extend its lifespan.
