The phone screen is the part most exposed to damage, and early warning signs help you act before the problem grows. Lines, blotches, and unresponsive touch are all indicators of damage that needs to be checked. Here are the main signs, and how to tell a minor issue from one that requires a screen replacement.
Signs of Screen Damage
- Vertical or horizontal lines, whether steady or flickering.
- Colored blotches or black areas that grow over time.
- Touch that does not respond in part of the screen.
- Ghost touch that registers presses on its own.
- Flickering or uneven brightness.
Is It the Screen or Something Else?
Before you decide, try restarting the phone and removing the screen protector. Sometimes ghost touch is caused by a cheap protector or by moisture. If the problem continues after that, the fault is in the screen itself.
Repair or Replace
| The Situation | Best Option |
|---|---|
| Minor crack and touch still works | A strong screen protector and monitoring |
