I see that this iFixit screen replacement guide is for a bare screen, and it adds that "some replacement screens for this phone come pre-installed in a new frame (a.k.a. chassis), which requires a very different procedure."
I usually work on iPhones (i've about 10 years amateur experience), but a friend has a cracked Galaxy A70 screen that i've offered to replace. This iFixit walkthrough looks pretty straightforward, but sadly iFixit doesn't seem to offer parts or kits in the store.
When looking up sources for parts, i see that A70 screens are commonly offered either barebones, or with the frame and/or fingerprint reader, for an additional third of the price, give or take.
I'm just after advice on whether it might be wiser to pick up a replacement with or without the frame, or the fingerprint reader? How different is the "very different procedure"? Would the effort saved from not needing to transfer these additional parts be worth it for someone new to Samsungs, needing to work it out?
Thanks for your time.
