Okay. I'll just keep scrolling on this Google phone I repaired. Apparently I didn't and it's scrap though.

I have a Samsung I've repaired as well; however, the first screen replacement I bought wasn't even close to the original. I had to return it and buy a used OEM one. And I can't find a replacement back that won't crack since they're all made from super cheap glass.

I've had so many pixels break I've lost count, and most of the time it's not economical to do the repair.

All of these companies have terrible options for repair

Honestly, you can get better at repairs. My first screen repair is hot garbage to be brutally honest, but it's on a 5 year old xiaomi phone that's my mom's backup so it doesn't matter as much. And then I gotten better at it and learnt to use better glue and better technique. The LG V60 that I used to use (before I handed it to my uncle) had a DIY replacement screen, I was really proud of it as it's all still waterproof too because used the B7000 glue instead of superglue.

It takes a bit of skill, but having an option is always better.

Sounds pretty shiddy tbh. I haven't had Samsung since the first Galaxy S, been using pixels since the first one. Only had to repair one, 4a5g. Screen was like $110. I can't tell the difference. My eyes may suck though. Generally I have good luck with electronics though. I fried a MacBook once with a 3rd party charger but otherwise made many upgrades to them over the years with ease. Now I opt for the solder everything in there so it's as small as possible option and run a tower at home.
