Under stereo magnification, we transfer the upper sensor array, safeguarding Face ID security pairing.

We read display calibration data from the original broken screen and flash it onto the new OLED to restore True Tone.

We apply a pre-cut laser gasket, seat the display, and test 120Hz ProMotion scrolling, cameras, and touch accuracy.
