Are you suffering from an iPhone with a black screen? There could be two things going on:

  • Your iPhone is completely broken and doesn’t do anything anymore;
  • Your iPhone is on but gives a black screen.

In this blog, we talk about the the second problem. Check if your iPhone is on: is it still vibrating and/or making noise? Then read on quickly.

iPhone black screen after fall

Did you drop your iPhone? This is probably the cause for your iPhone with black screen. Especially if your iPhone has fallen flat with the screen on the ground, there is a good chance that the screen will turn black all at once. If your screen is also cracked, it is even more likely that your screen will become unresponsive. Annoying, but not to worry! This problem can be fixed by replacing your screen. Go to a branch of a professional repair shop (for example, ThePhoneLab – check here for a branch near you), where they can start a screen repair right away.

First streaks or smudges on your iPhone black screen

Were you experiencing streaks or smudges on your screen before this? And is your screen now not showing anything at all? Then, unfortunately, your problem is spread all over the screen. With streaks and spots, individual pixels are broken in the screen. Your iPhone can no longer control these pixels, causing streaks or spots in the image. Often over time, several pixels next to each other break down, and so the problem spreads like an oil slick across the screen. The end station of this problem? An iPhone with black screen.

iPhone black screen with Apple logo on screen

Is your iPhone screen black with an Apple logo on it? With this problem, your screen is not defective. If your iPhone boots up and it gets stuck continuously on the Apple logo, this is called a bootloop. Booting up an iPhone is called boot in technical terms, and because it tries to do this over and over again, it is called a loop. A bootloop occurs when there are problems with your iPhone.
