Choosing an LCD Screen for Your Smart Phone
Your phone or tablet keeps you connected to work, friends, and family. When the liquid crystal display (LCD) screen is cracked it can make it difficult to enjoy all the benefits of your device. It is important to replace the LCD screen on your OnePlus 3 before more damage occurs.
How can you tell if a screen is cracked or broken?
The LCD display is rarely considered broken until it fails to emit images clearly. One drop of a device can lead to a cracked screen. In addition to understanding the complex nature of smart devices, you also need to understand the design of the display area. The screen area consists of a thin layer of glass and the LCD screen. The glass provides protection, viewing and ensures operation of the area. The LCD film is responsible for a clear pixel display and response to touch control technology. A crack or break of the screen could be either the LCD or the glass.
Here are a few tips to help identify if it is the LCD area that is damaged and possibly needs replacing:
- The sudden appearance of unusual lines, abrasions, or strange patterns are visible on the monitor.
- Discolorations, blurred liquid crystals, or black specs appear on the screen or monitor area.
- The screen has no backlight display and is completely black.
What should you look for when choosing an LCD replacement?
The LCD replacement can be obtained for laptop screens, LCD televisions, tablets, phones, and more. The key is to choose the correct one for the type of device you have. There are a few things to consider when choosing a replacement LCD screen for your laptop computer and any other device. A balanced light-emitting diode is essential for clear display. Full-array technology permits local dimming characteristics. Most original LCD platforms are built-in to function with the touchscreen component. A balanced contribution of active-matrix, sub-pixel, and high contrast technology attributes to the quality images emitted by the LCD screen. Here are a few other factors to consider when choosing an LCD:
- Size: take measurements of the damaged OnePlus 3 screen from one corner to the other and use it as the replacement guide.
- Resolution: resolution describes the pixel display strength of the monitor or viewing area. It is typically defined in terms of width x height.
- Screen type: this involves choosing a matte or gloss finish. The matte option is more visible in direct sunlight during the day. Both options are cross-compatible.
