The iPhone 11 boasts a sleek display with a curved design that seamlessly blends into its rounded corners. While the screen measures 6.06 inches diagonally when viewed as a standard rectangle, the actual usable display area is slightly smaller. This device offers up to 17 hours of video playback, making it a favorite among users. However, if your iPhone 11 screen gets cracked, damaged, or experiences other issues, PhonoFix Store is here to help with expert screen replacements.
HOW TO FIX AN IPHONE 11 SCREEN:
At PhonoFix Store, we’re equipped to handle any screen-related issues your iPhone 11 may encounter. Whether your screen is cracked, unresponsive to touch, displaying no image, or showing distorted visuals, our technicians can restore it to perfect condition. If the LCD behind the screen is protected by a thin metal shield, the repair process is straightforward. However, if the shield is damaged or missing, additional steps will be necessary to ensure your phone is fully repaired.
One critical aspect of the repair involves transferring the integrated earpiece speaker and sensor assembly from the old screen to the new one. This assembly is attached to the back of the screen and connected to the iPhone during manufacturing. It’s important to note that if the flood illuminator, which powers Face ID, is damaged, it may affect the functionality of Face ID. Only Apple-certified technicians should handle repairs involving this component to maintain your phone’s security features.

WHAT TO DO IF YOUR SCREEN GETS WET:
Although the iPhone 11 is rated IP68 for water resistance, it isn’t completely waterproof. This rating means it can withstand submersion in up to six feet of water for 30 minutes. The iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max have even higher water resistance, surviving depths of up to 13 feet for the same duration. However, it’s important to remember that water resistance diminishes over time due to normal wear and tear. If your iPhone 11 suffers water damage, it’s likely not covered under Apple’s warranty, meaning you may need to pay for repairs or purchase a new device.
WHAT TO DO IF YOUR IPHONE FALLS IN WATER:
If your iPhone 11 gets wet, immediately dry it off with a lint-free cloth, and gently tap it to remove excess water. Place it in front of a fan to finish drying, which may take up to 24 hours. If the liquid is anything other than water, rinse the affected area with tap water. Avoid inserting paper towels or cotton swabs into the lightning port. Instead, use a lens cloth designed for cleaning eyeglasses. You can skip the rinse if your iPhone was only submerged in water.
To drain excess water, lightly tap the phone with the charging port facing down. It’s not recommended to use rice to dry your phone, as it can cause damage. Instead, position the iPhone so the charging port faces the fan. Avoid using heat sources like blow dryers or compressed air. Apple suggests allowing up to 24 hours for the phone to dry completely. Wait at least 30 minutes before attempting to charge it with a lightning cable. If using wireless charging, ensure the back of the phone is dry before placing it on the charger.
