Vivo V5 Display and Touch Screen Glass Replacement Vivo 1601

Q: How much does replacing a broken Vivo V5 display in India cost?

A 100% original Vivo V5 display replacement costs around Rs 1800-2000. If you buy a first copy screen replacement, the combo costs about Rs 1100-1200 in India. The installation costs extra and is charged by a local technician.

Q: What are the drawbacks of replacing only the touchscreen glass?

You should always consider the touch screen glass replacement a substandard solution because it is based on repairing the broken display instead of replacing it. The glass replacement comes with major setbacks, and these are :

• The duplicate touchscreen glass costs around Rs 100, and you pay more than five times.
• Your money mostly goes towards labor charges because the price of the spare part is negligible.
• The copy touch screen never works precisely; it works very hard and incorrectly.
• Your original display goes through arduous activity, and its quality also dampens a lot.
• After replacing the glass, you might see several dust particles and other impurities inside the display because the replacement happens in a dusty environment.

Overall, the glass replacement can’t match the quality of the original display replacement. Surely, you can replace the glass and use your mobile phone for a short time. However, duplicate glass cracks easily, and you must invest more money to repair the phone in the future.

Q: Can’t I purchase the original touchscreen glass to preserve the quality?

Many customers assume they can easily purchase an original touchscreen glass and enjoy the same quality as before, but that isn’t possible. The original touchscreen glass takes its shape in the OEM factory, and they don’t sell it separately. They always sell complete display units consisting of the display and touchscreen glass.

You must rely on aftermarket duplicate parts to replace only the touchscreen glass, which does nothing good to your phone. The aftermarket parts are cheap and unreliable, so customers carelessly buy and replace them when needed. Duplicate spares have no inherent value and are available at low prices.

Q: Should I replace the broken Vivo V5 display at home?

Many customers purchase spare parts online and want to replace them at home, which is possible if you know how. If you are a tyro and try to replace the screen at home, it likely won’t turn out well for you. Although screen replacement is easy, some expertise is always warranted. Please note that mobile phone parts are fragile, and it is not worth risking the new display / other parts of your phone.

You might not have all the required tools as a layperson, making your job even more challenging.  If you try to use fill-in tools, that might not work as desired. That’s why we always suggest paying around Rs 150-200 to a professional technician and having him replace the display for you. You don’t have to take the hassle and watch how easily the installation pans out.

Q: How can I test the new display? Is it returnable? 

You can easily test the new display by connecting it to your phone’s motherboard in an open condition. Open condition testing is widely accepted as a reliable method of testing new screens. You should never assemble a display directly without testing it first.  Please follow these steps :

1. First, you need to dismantle the phone and remove the cracked display.
2. Clean the frame to remove residual glue and glass bits.
3. Place the new display inside the frame and connect it to the motherboard
4. Turn on the phone, and you can test the new display easily.
5. After verifying the working condition, you can install the display on your phone.

All the mobile phone screens are returnable for 30 days after delivery as long as they are not used or damaged. If you use the display or remove its screen guard/warranty stickers, you can’t return it afterward because it violates the return policy. A mobile phone screen is not returnable after use, and it is a standard policy followed by everyone in the spare parts industry.
