Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a Sony Xperia 1 screen replacement take?
Most Sony Xperia 1 screen replacements are completed the same day when the part is in stock, often within a couple of hours of dropping in at our Liverpool Street workshop in London. We inspect the device first, and if a part needs to be ordered in or we find wider damage, we confirm a realistic timeframe with you before starting. Mail-in repairs are turned around as quickly as the post allows once your device arrives.
Check current turnaround and reserve a slot on our booking page.
How do I know it is the screen and not another fault?
Cracked glass, lines, flicker, dead patches, discolouration or unresponsive touch while the device still powers on almost always points to the display assembly. On most modern devices the panel and the touch layer are part of one assembly, so cracked glass and touch faults are usually solved by the same replacement. If the device will not power on, has been exposed to liquid, or shows more than one symptom, a short diagnosis confirms the fault before you commit.
If you are not certain, it is worth booking a quick diagnosis first.
What quality of screen do you use for the Sony Xperia 1?
We fit a high-quality replacement display chosen specifically for the Sony Xperia 1, then calibrate and test it before return. The replacement restores full touch response, brightness and colour, and it carries our 12-month warranty. If more than one option becomes available for your model, we will explain the choice clearly before any work begins.
See how we fit and test each repair on our how we work page.
Will the fingerprint sensor still work after the repair?
In most cases, yes. We test the fingerprint sensor along with touch, brightness and colour before your Sony Xperia 1 is returned. Where the fingerprint reader sits under the display, it can occasionally need recalibration after a screen change, and we will tell you if a separate part is involved. Any sensor behaviour is checked as part of our standard post-repair testing.

Do I lose my data during a screen repair?
No. A Sony Xperia 1 screen replacement is a hardware-only repair and does not require us to wipe or factory reset your device, so your files and settings stay as they are. We still recommend keeping a recent backup before any repair, simply as good practice in case the device has damage beyond the screen. Nothing about the screen procedure itself touches your storage.
Battery fading too? Many customers add a Sony Xperia 1 battery replacement at the same visit.
What warranty comes with the Sony Xperia 1 screen repair?
Every Sony Xperia 1 screen replacement includes a 12-month warranty covering both the fitted display and our workmanship. If a fault develops with the part or the fitting within that period, we put it right at no extra cost. The warranty does not cover fresh impact damage, liquid exposure or an unrelated fault that appears later, which we always explain clearly before you book.
