Q: What are the benefits of buying a display with a middle frame?

If you buy a display replacement with a middle frame, you can enjoy these benefits :

• Perfect Fitting: A factory-fitted display never leaves any gap around the corners.
• Easy Installation: You can easily install a with-frame display without a technician’s help.
• Long Life and Durability: An original display lasts longer because it uses durable spare parts in its construction.
