Displays Soft OLED 120 Hz DIAGNOSTIC for iPhone
On this page, you will find Soft OLED 120 Hz DIAGNOSTIC displays for selected iPhone models. These are new, non-original replacement displays manufactured by a third party, which do not trigger a non-genuine display warning after replacement.
Soft OLED DIAGNOSTIC supports a 120 Hz refresh rate and retains the same screen size and display area as the original. In everyday use, it provides smooth motion, animations and content, while offering a more affordable alternative to an original Apple display.

What does DIAGNOSTIC mean for an iPhone display?
The DIAGNOSTIC designation means that after the display is replaced, the warning indicating a non-genuine display is not shown. However, the display itself remains a non-genuine replacement part manufactured by a third party.
This is the key feature that distinguishes DIAGNOSTIC from the standard Soft OLED 120 Hz variant. Users can therefore choose a non-genuine replacement display without this warning appearing on the device.
Soft OLED 120 Hz or Soft OLED 120 Hz DIAGNOSTIC?
Both variants use Soft OLED technology, support a 120 Hz refresh rate and retain the same screen size and display area as the original. The main difference is the system warning after replacement.
With the standard Soft OLED 120 Hz display, a non-genuine display warning is shown, while with Soft OLED 120 Hz DIAGNOSTIC, this warning does not appear. DIAGNOSTIC is therefore a suitable option if this feature is important to you when choosing a replacement display.
