iPhone Model Overview & Common Repair Trends

The iPhone 8 Plus, released in 2017, features a 5.5-inch Retina HD LCD display, dual 12MP cameras (wide and telephoto), and is powered by the A11 Bionic chip. Its glass back enables wireless charging, a first for iPhones. Common repair issues include cracked screens and back glass due to its glass construction, battery degradation over time, and charging port wear from regular use. The home button, while not mechanical, can become unresponsive, and some users have reported "loop disease," an audio chip failure affecting sound functions. Despite its age, the iPhone 8 Plus remains a reliable choice for those seeking a larger display or a dependable backup phone, making repairs like screen and battery replacements worthwhile.

Repair Quality & Parts Information

We provide a premium-grade LCD screen at our repair shop for repairs on the iPhone 8 Plus. Genuine screens are available upon request; however, most customers prefer our high-quality premium LCD screens. Each aftermarket category includes various grades from low to high quality. Lower-grade aftermarket parts often face issues such as ghost touching, poor brightness, inaccurate colors, or screens detaching due to improper bezel adhesive. To prevent these problems, we exclusively source the highest quality within each grade, rigorously testing numerous suppliers throughout our years in business. Experience has taught us that cutting corners by saving just $20-$30 can ultimately lead to more hassle and additional costs, so we ensure every part meets our stringent standards.
