Top Reasons Why Mobile Displays Get Damaged – FAQ

Common Causes of Mobile Screen Damage: Understanding Why Your Device is at Risk

Mobile displays are delicate and often the first part to break. At Sanskart Mobiles, we not only repair broken displays but also educate customers on how to prevent damage. Here

Here are some frequently asked questions.

Q1: What are the primary causes of mobile display damage?

Answer:

The main reasons include:

Accidental drops on hard surfaces

Pressure damage (sitting on the phone, placing it in a tight pocket)

Entry of water or moisture

Using a low-quality duplicate display previously

Overheating during charging

Q2: Why does my phone's display crack so easily?

Answer:

Modern smartphones use thin glass for a sleek design. Even though brands like iPhone and Samsung use Gorilla Glass, a strong impact or a drop at an unfortunate angle can cause cracks.

Q3: Can tempered glass truly protect my display?

Answer:

Yes, tempered glass absorbs 90% of shocks from drops and scratches. However, it cannot protect against major falls.

Q4: Why do displays develop black spots or lines after a drop?

Answer:

This occurs when the LCD layer inside the display is damaged. Simply replacing the glass won't fix it — a full display combo replacement is necessary.

Answer:

Yes. Overcharging or using non-original chargers can overheat the display IC, causing flickering or touch issues. Always use original adapters.

Answer:

✔ Always use tempered glass and a back cover

✔ Avoid keeping the phone in tight jeans or back pocket

✔ Keep away from water and heat

✔ Avoid using while charging for extended periods

Q7: Should I repair a damaged display immediately?

Answer:

Yes ✅. Using a damaged display can lead to:

Touch becoming completely unresponsive

Further spreading of cracks

Internal damage to the motherboard

It’s advisable to replace it immediately with a quality display replacement service.
