The iPhone 11 is renowned for its elegant display, featuring a curved design that smoothly transitions into its rounded corners. Although the screen size is 6.06 inches diagonally when measured as a standard rectangle, the actual usable area is slightly less. The iPhone 11 also offers impressive video playback of up to 17 hours, making it a popular choice among users. However, if your iPhone 11 screen gets cracked, damaged, or suffers from other issues, the Gadgetclub Store is ready to provide expert screen replacement services.
IPHONE 11 SCREEN REPAIR PROCESS:
At Gadgetclub Store, we’re fully equipped to address any screen-related problems your iPhone 11 might face. Whether your screen is cracked, unresponsive, displaying no image, or showing distorted visuals, our skilled technicians can restore it to like-new condition. If the LCD behind the screen is safeguarded by a thin metal shield, the repair process is more straightforward. However, if this shield is damaged or absent, additional steps will be required to ensure your phone is thoroughly repaired.
A crucial part of the repair involves transferring the integrated earpiece speaker and sensor assembly from your old screen to the new one. This assembly, which is attached to the back of the screen and connected to the iPhone during manufacturing, must be handled with care. If the flood illuminator, a component critical to Face ID functionality, is damaged, it could impact Face ID’s performance. Therefore, it’s essential that repairs involving this component be performed by Apple-certified technicians to maintain your phone’s security features.

WHAT TO DO IF YOUR SCREEN GETS WET:
While the iPhone 11 is rated IP68 for water resistance, it’s not entirely waterproof. This rating means the iPhone 11 can withstand submersion in up to six feet of water for 30 minutes. The iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max models offer even greater water resistance, surviving in up to 13 feet of water for the same duration. However, it’s important to note that water resistance can diminish over time due to regular wear and tear. If your iPhone 11 suffers water damage, it’s likely not covered under Apple’s warranty, so you may need to pay for repairs or consider a replacement.
WHAT TO DO IF YOUR IPHONE FALLS IN WATER:
If your iPhone 11 gets wet, immediately dry it with a lint-free cloth and gently tap it to remove any excess water. Then, place it in front of a fan to allow it to dry completely, which could take up to 24 hours. If the liquid is something 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. If your iPhone was only submerged in water, you can skip the rinse.
To expel excess water, lightly tap the phone with the charging port facing downward. It’s not recommended to use rice to dry your phone, as this can cause damage. Instead, position the iPhone with the charging port facing the fan. Avoid using heat sources like blow dryers or compressed air. Apple advises waiting 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.
