The Moto Z Play phone has an AMOLED display with Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection, shielding the touchscreen glass from minor drops. Still, if you drop the phone from a significant height, the touchscreen glass will surely crack. You can still use the phone after damage, but a broken touchscreen glass looks bad and should be replaced.
The display replacement costs for Moto Z Play are steep because it has an AMOLED display. You might think that the handset is quite old and spare parts should be available for cheap, but that is not the case. If original screens for a particular model are unavailable, the price goes higher instead of dropping, and the same is true for this model.
What is the meaning of the Moto Z Play Display Combo?
The Moto Z Play combo comprises two individual parts: the AMOLED display and the touchscreen glass. When companies manufacture a new phone, they combine the display and touch screen glass using LOCA (Liquid Optical Clear Adhesive). This means that the display and touch screen come glued together, but still, you will not see any signs of glue because of the optically clear adhesive, and it is precisely what the word combo means.
In case of any physical damage to the glass or inner display, you need to replace the entire assembly because you cannot replace them individually. If you have broken the top layer of gorilla glass or damaged the internal display, you always need to replace the complete combo to restore your phone’s 100% original condition.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the Moto Z Play display replacement price in India?
The price of a 100% original Moto Z Play display replacement is around Rs 4500-4600. If you buy a first copy screen replacement, the combo costs about Rs 1300-1500 in India. You may have to pay additional repair charges to a mechanic on top of the display’s price.
Q: Why do the display replacement costs vary so much?
You’ll see varied prices online and offline if you search for a new display, and that’s normal. That’s because selling prices largely depend on the quality you buy, and around 95% of screens available in online and offline markets are counterfeit. All non-original screens are cheap, while original screens are expensive.
If you buy a display for a low price, that’s possible, but these are duplicate displays (TFT Quality), and you’ll never get the original quality. You can install these screens on your phone, but you’ll experience dull colors, poor brightness, hard-working touchscreen glass, and many other similar problems.
Q: How can I test and install the new Moto Z display?
We’ve created a step-by-step guide to help you install the Moto Z display :
- Please note that you can open this phone only from the front side, not from the backside.
- Eject the SIM card tray from the top and ensure the device is turned off.
- Apply hot air all over the display to soften the adhesive underneath the display.
- Use a plastic card to create a gap between the display and the frame, and gently cut through the adhesive to remove the display from the frame.
- You’ll see a protective metal covering on the display’s flex; please remove it and disconnect the display’s flex from the motherboard.
- Connect the new display’s flex to the motherboard and turn on the phone to test the new display in real time.
- After fully testing and verifying the display, you can install the new display using glue or double tape.
- Please install the display gently, as AMOLED screens are slim and crack easily.
You shouldn’t attempt installation at home because it is risky for newbies. You can make mistakes during installation, and if you damage the part, you’ll later have trouble accepting your faults. So, always seek a technician’s help to install the display on your phone, and don’t hesitate to pay nominal installation fees.
