A few myths we hear every week in Cape Coral and on mail-in jobs:
<ul>
<li>"Apple is always cheaper." Not on many Pro Max OLED screens. Example: iPhone 17 Pro Max OLED $199 here vs Apple published display service often listed at $379.</li>
<li>"Glass-only is always the move." Only if the OLED panel is healthy. We tell you which path fits your damage.</li>
<li>"Mail-in is sketchy." Tracked shipping + quote before work + written approval is safer than an unknown stall.</li>
<li>"If it is not powering on, it is dead." Many no-power jobs are ports, batteries, or board faults worth diagnosing first.</li>
</ul>
