    Never thought of doing that myself tbh but I’ll check it out, thanks for the idea. Id be happy if I could get a couple more years out of it because it sure beats these iPhone prices now

      The other super useful tool to have is a heat gun. Go grab one from Harbor Freight for like $20 while they are on sale. This allows you to melt the adhesive they use to hold the screen in place

        Apple has a self repair program where they send you the tools and parts needed for the repair that you return the tools and broken parts when you’re done.

        Haven’t done one myself since I but I’ve read of others success stories with the process. The parts are not as cheap as going third party but if you’re buying your owns tools it might end up cheaper overall.
