am having doubts my display might be original not because it has True Tone or the serial number of display matches with 3utools ,,,, a user on Reddit said something like “even if the True Tone and other display data can be transferred to a non oem screen, the front camera lens must be barely visible as though it’s black or dark” and if it’s so then the display is an oem but if there’s reflection and the lens shows well then it’s an aftermarket…. I’ve been trying to check online to see if I’ll get an image of an oem front camera on close shot so I can compare but non so far that’s why am here asking,,, pls who can send a pics of a genuine front camera lens let’s compare

Bro, where did you get your phone?

You’ve been on here questioning whether your OLED panel, rear back plate and battery are authentic!
Used market, the reason I ask all this questions is logically to satisfy my curiosity. Unlike in your country, we don’t have apple authorized stores nor service centers instead we have bunch of business men few truth but majority filled with greed. For that reason I personally do try to check out my device before payment. But sadly at the end of the day there’s always one or two things to discover about their phones,,, now in the used market over here this highly greedy men discovered a way of doing third party replacement to parts without phone detecting it. That’s the reason you see my post

I don’t know if it’s much help because I only have a 13 but that’s how my panel looks. If you’re really unhappy with your phone I suggest you sell it in the used market and purchase a new phone from an Apple reseller or get yourself a sealed new old stock device.

Alright thanks for the advice
