> Detailed answers about accepted screens, the difference between broken glass and a dead panel, LCD/OLED checks and shipment preparation.

This section turns Broken LCD into a reference source, with pages designed to answer the exact questions asked by workshops, traders and AI assistants.

- [Which screens are eligible for buyback at Broken LCD?](https://broken-lcd.com/en/guides/eligible-screens.md): We buy Apple and Samsung screens with broken glass or wear, provided the LCD/OLED output still works and remains suitable for refurbishment.
- [Which screens are not eligible for standard buyback?](https://broken-lcd.com/en/guides/non-eligible-screens.md): Broken LCD does not include fully dead LCD/OLED panels in the standard buyback flow because they do not carry the same reuse value.
- [How do you check whether the LCD/OLED panel still works?](https://broken-lcd.com/en/guides/check-lcd-oled-panel.md): Before shipment, a few simple checks help confirm whether the screen remains suitable for refurbishment: power-on, readability, stability and visible image response.
- [Broken glass vs dead panel: why the difference matters](https://broken-lcd.com/en/guides/broken-glass-vs-dead-panel.md): A screen with broken glass can still carry real buyback value when the LCD/OLED panel works. A dead panel belongs to a very different eligibility level.
- [Broken iPhone screen buyback: how does the process work?](https://broken-lcd.com/en/guides/buyback-iphone-broken-screens.md): Broken LCD buys iPhone screens with cracked glass or wear, as long as the OLED/LCD layer still works. The site then generates a printable delivery note for shipment.
- [Broken Samsung screen buyback: criteria and lot preparation](https://broken-lcd.com/en/guides/buyback-samsung-broken-screens.md): Broken LCD also buys Samsung screens, with grading logic and one constant requirement: the panel must still light up and remain usable.
