Original vs. Copy Mobile Parts – What's Best for Your Mobile Repair?

As a repair professional, it's crucial to choose the best repair parts for your mobile repairs. When making this decision, you often face the question: do I opt for original parts or do I choose copy parts? In this blog post, we will explore the differences between both options. At Foneday, your reliable wholesaler for phone and tablet parts, we offer a wide range of phone parts to meet the needs of your repair shop.

Original Phone Parts

Service Pack: 

Service Pack items are 100% original parts that come directly new from the manufacturer. They come with the highest quality guarantee and offer the best performance. These parts are specifically designed for the respective device.

Pulled: 

Pulled parts are 100% original parts that have been removed from second-hand devices. They are thoroughly tested and refurbished before being reintroduced to the market. These parts offer a good balance between quality and price.

Refurbished: 

Refurbished parts are previously used 100% original parts that have been repaired and refurbished to function like new again. They are a sustainable option and can be significantly cheaper than new parts.

Copy Phone Parts

In-cell: 

In-cell parts are replicas of original components. These parts are of reliable quality and comply with industry standards, but they are not manufactured by the original equipment manufacturer. They are developed by third parties for use in aftermarket applications.

After Market: 

After Market parts are produced by external manufacturers and designed to be compatible with specific devices. They can be an affordable alternative to original parts.

After Market Plus: 

After Market Plus parts are an enhanced version of After Market parts. They generally offer better quality and reliability.

OEM-Equivalent: 

OEM-Equivalent parts are made by external manufacturers and aim to match the same quality as original parts. They can be a good choice if you are looking for a compromise between price and quality.

Soft OLED and Hard OLED: 

Soft OLED and Hard OLED are replicas of the device's original OLED screen. These components are specifically developed by third parties for use in high-quality aftermarket applications.

At Foneday, the best copy parts are carefully selected to ensure optimal performance. It's also crucial for your customers to have access to an affordable alternative that leads to a successful phone repair.

The Pros and Cons of Original and Copy Phone Parts

Original parts offer the best quality, reliability, and optimal performance as they come from and are supported by factories. Using original parts can extend the life of the repaired device and increase customer satisfaction. However, while these parts extend the lifespan, they do come at a higher price compared to copy parts. Copy parts provide an affordable alternative and also maintain high quality at Foneday. The copy parts are selected and tested by the QIT team, ensuring that only the best parts are offered in the shop.
