Screen
Parts and service history
With iPhone 11 models and later, excluding iPhone SE (2nd and 3rd generation), using iOS 15.2 and later, you can go to Settings > General > About for the parts and service history of your iPhone. You can also find out if the display has been replaced. If the repair was done using genuine Apple parts and processes, “Genuine Apple Part” will appear next to Display.
Duplicate displays also do not have perfectly round edges. They may eat up additional screen estate from corners and look weird with an inward intruding black border. Moreover, aftermarket displays have thicker bezels than the original. You can verify the same by keeping another iPhone side-by-side.
When inspecting an iPhone’s display, check the corners and edges of the panel while it is turned on. Look for the signs of scratching, white spots, color bleeding, and brittleness that may have occurred during repair. You may also see cloudiness and a slight color difference between the display and the edges.

Make sure to observe the screen in both light and dark modes. To do so, go to Settings > Display & Brightness and choose between Light and Dark options.
