iPhone 12 Screen Replacement Vienna
Dropped your iPhone 12 and now the 6.1" display is cracked, a coloured line runs down the OLED, or dark patches are spreading? Even Ceramic Shield gives way on a flat-edge drop, and OLED faults only creep wider with the touch dropping out. Reparo replaces the iPhone 12 screen in Vienna from EUR 119, with Face ID kept working, usually in about 2 hours and a 6-month warranty.
When does the iPhone 12 need a screen replacement?
- The glass is cracked or shattered after a drop
- A green, pink or white line runs down the OLED panel
- Dark blotches or dead pixels are spreading across the display
- The touchscreen misses taps or registers presses you didn't make
- The screen stays black even though the phone rings and vibrates
- The area around the notch is damaged or the picture flickers
The iPhone 12 uses a 6.1" Super Retina XDR OLED behind Ceramic Shield, built as one bonded unit of glass, OLED and digitiser with the notch sensors on top. The flat edges concentrate impact on a corner drop, so the glass cracks and the panel bruises together, and OLED faults such as green lines only spread — replacing the whole assembly is the reliable fix.

How the iPhone 12 screen replacement works
-
Book and hand over
Book online or call. We collect the iPhone 12 with the Vienna pickup service — no shop trip needed, even with a shattered screen.
-
Display & Face ID check
We check the panel, the digitiser and the Face ID sensors in the notch and confirm the aluminium frame is straight enough to take a new display. Diagnostic check EUR 25 — waived once you approve.
-
Fit the new display & transfer Face ID
The cracked assembly comes off, your original Face ID / TrueDepth flex is transferred to the new OLED, the display is fitted and sealed, and True Tone is re-programmed.
-
Touch & Face ID test, return
We test touch, brightness, the notch sensors and Face ID, then return the iPhone 12 with a 6-month warranty.
Outside Vienna? Post the iPhone 12 to us insured from anywhere in Austria — we replace the display and ship it back, usually within 1–3 business days, with free return shipping.
iPhone 12 screen replacement — is it worth it?
The screen is what you hold and look at all day, and on the iPhone 12 it's the single part most likely to break — yet far cheaper to swap than to replace a phone that still runs the latest iOS on its A14 chip. From EUR 119 a new display brings back the sharp OLED picture, keeps Face ID and all your data, and keeps the iPhone 12 going for years.
- From EUR 119 — fixed price per option
- Crisp OLED display restored
- Face ID kept, all your data intact
- 6-month warranty
- Done in approx. 2 hours
- Out-of-warranty screen service costs far more
- Often several days without the phone
- A used iPhone 12 in Vienna runs EUR 280–360
- A repairable phone written off
Even if the picture still shows under the cracks, keep using a broken iPhone 12 and the glass splinters can cut your finger and let moisture into the panel — replacing it sooner heads off a bigger fault later.
Which display does Reparo fit into the iPhone 12?
You choose a genuine Apple-grade Super Retina XDR OLED (EUR 189) or a high-grade certified aftermarket OLED (EUR 119). Both hit the original 6.1" 2532×1170 resolution, and on both we transfer your original Face ID / TrueDepth flex from the notch so Face ID keeps working, and re-programme True Tone. Both carry a 6-month warranty on the screen and the labour.
iPhone 12 screen replacement cost and process in Vienna
An iPhone 12 screen replacement costs from EUR 119 with a certified OLED, or EUR 189 with a genuine Apple-grade panel, and takes around 2 hours. Because the screen is a single bonded assembly — glass, OLED and digitiser together — a crack usually means the whole unit is replaced rather than just the outer Ceramic Shield glass.
The detail that matters most on any iPhone is Face ID. The Face ID flex in the notch is paired to your specific phone, so we carefully move it from your old screen onto the new one — that is what keeps Face ID working. A generic screen fitted without transferring it would break Face ID, which is why we never skip that step.
Will Face ID still work after the screen replacement?
Yes. We transfer your original Face ID / TrueDepth flex to the new display, so Face ID keeps working exactly as before and you don't need to re-enrol. True Tone is re-programmed onto the new panel too.
Green line or dead patch — can that be fixed without a new screen?
No. A green or coloured line and dark blotches mean the OLED layer itself is damaged, and that can't be repaired on its own — the bonded assembly has to be replaced. The fault almost always spreads if you wait. Browse our wider iPhone repair services for other models.
iPhone 12 screen replacement — frequently asked questions
How much does an iPhone 12 screen replacement cost?
From EUR 119 with a certified OLED, or EUR 189 with a genuine Apple-grade panel. Both are fixed prices including fitting, Face ID transfer and a 6-month warranty. The EUR 25 diagnostic check is waived on repair.
Will Face ID still work after the screen replacement?
Yes. We transfer your original Face ID / TrueDepth flex from the notch to the new display, so Face ID keeps working and you don't need to re-enrol. We test it before returning the phone.
What's the difference between the EUR 119 and EUR 189 screen?
EUR 119 fits a high-grade certified OLED; EUR 189 fits a genuine Apple-grade panel with factory calibration. Both reach the 6.1" resolution and carry the 6-month warranty.
How long does the screen replacement take?
Usually about 2 hours. With our Vienna pickup service the iPhone 12 is often back the same day; a send-in from elsewhere in Austria takes 1–3 business days.
There's a green line on my iPhone 12 — do I need a new screen?
Yes. A green or coloured line means the OLED layer is damaged and can't be repaired on its own — the bonded assembly has to be replaced. It tends to spread the longer you wait.
The display is cracked but still works — should I wait?
Better not. Cracks let in dust and moisture, splinters can cut your finger, and touch faults usually follow. Replacing it sooner avoids a bigger fault and stays the same price.
Does the iPhone 12 have ProMotion 120 Hz?
No — the iPhone 12 has a 60 Hz Super Retina XDR OLED; ProMotion 120 Hz arrived later on the 13 Pro. The replacement matches the original 60 Hz panel, so it behaves exactly as before.
Will iOS show a warning about the replaced display?
iOS may show a non-genuine-display notice in Settings after a certified screen; the genuine Apple-grade panel avoids it. Either way the display works fully — touch, brightness and Face ID.
Can I just drop my iPhone 12 off at your shop?
No — Reparo has no walk-in. You book an appointment and we collect the iPhone 12 by pickup service in Vienna, or you post it in. Nothing is dropped off at a counter.
How does the Vienna pickup service work?
Book a slot, we collect the iPhone 12 at home or work in Vienna, replace the screen and deliver it back. Pickup & delivery starts at EUR 7.90 by district.
Can I send the iPhone 12 in from outside Vienna?
Yes. Book, pack it carefully and ship insured from anywhere in Austria. We replace the display and return it within 1–3 business days, with free return shipping.
Is there a warranty on the screen replacement?
Yes. Reparo gives a 6-month warranty on the display and the labour, covering panel and touch faults that aren't caused by new damage.
Will I lose my data during the screen replacement?
No. A screen replacement is external and never touches internal storage — all your photos, apps and settings remain exactly as they were.
Will a third-party screen void my Apple warranty?
A third-party repair generally ends Apple's manufacturer warranty, which on a 2020 iPhone 12 has usually expired. In return you get Reparo's own 6-month warranty.
My iPhone 12 screen went black after it got wet — can you fix it?
Possibly, but liquid needs a separate diagnosis (EUR 25, waived on repair). See our iPhone 12 water damage repair — moisture can damage the display connector beyond the panel itself.
