OLED vs LCD Screens

Basics of Screen Technology
Pixels: Each screen has millions of pixels made up of red, green, and blue subpixels. Adjusting their brightness creates images.

LCD Screens

  • Use a white LED backlight.
  • Liquid crystals control light passing through color filters.
  • Thicker screen, lower cost.
  • Longer lifespan, less eye strain.
  • Blacks appear grayish due to backlight.

OLED Screens

  • Pixels emit their own light (no backlight).
  • Thinner, flexible displays.
  • Higher cost, shorter lifespan.
  • True blacks and vivid colors.
  • Faster response, but possible flicker and burn-in.

Why LCD Remains Popular

  • More affordable for mass repairs.
  • Less eye strain during extended use.
  • Longer durability, ideal for refurbished phones.

NCC Display Solutions

  • LCD Options: Cost-effective, bright, durable, compatible with iPhones. Examples: NCC Prime Incell, ColorX Incell.
  • OLED Options: Vivid color, high contrast, responsive touch. Examples: NCC Soft OLED, NCC Hard OLED.

The reason why iPhones are difficult to repair is mainly due to various encryption systems. Sometimes, a programmer is needed for the repair. I will update some repair knowledge on DEV or my blog. I hope it can be helpful to you.
