Had an unusual Xmas gift from my Daughter, one of her presents to me was her 'Broken Screen' iphone 6  :-\
Has anyone had the patience to change one themselves ? if so how was it.
I see there are YouTube video's about it.

Iain:
Most towns have specialist shops that will do it for you, for around £80 - 100 or so.

It is very easy to mess it up if you don't know what you are doing!

chenks:
if you are good at following step by step instructions to the letter and have the correct tools then it's not particularly tricky.
just make sure you source a real iphone screen and not one of the cheaper poorer quality third party screens.

Never touched an iPhone.

Change the screen on my Samsung S3, my partners S5, and recently did my Huawei Mate 9 Pro.

The S3 had a tiny crack on the outer glass.
The Huawei Mate 9 Pro had a long crack from top to bottom.
Both were extremely easy to fix.

The S5 had a "shattered" glass screen and was considerably more difficult because of this. Every individual piece of broken glass needs VERY carefully cleaned off the AMOLED screen without scratching it.

It depends if the outer glass is broken or the screen underneath, or both.

My 3 repairs are all the outer glass which cost about £5-£10 each.
I bought my Huawei Mate 9 Pro replacement screen for £8.99 and it came with the LOCA glue, tools, wipes, etc, even a UV torch to cure the glue.
I wouldn't use such a UV light for this job though.

If the screen underneath is broke it can be much more expensive.

This one looks well "shattered"   :'(
re 'It depends if the outer glass is broken or the screen underneath, or both.' Can you only tell by taking it apart. ?
Edit , Just turned it on and the back screen seems ok.
She said she dropped it twice on to hard surface and had been using for few weeks after, so much for 'Glass' screen saver she had on it.  >:(
