A cracked or unresponsive Google Pixel screen can almost always be fixed for less than the price of a new phone. A replacement OLED display assembly starts at £46.99 for a Pixel 7 Pro when you fit it yourself, and most screen repairs are a same-day job. This guide covers your three repair routes, realistic UK costs, exactly which screen fits every Pixel from the 6 to the 9 series, and how to avoid buying the wrong part.
How much does a Google Pixel screen replacement cost in the UK?
Short answer: there are three price levels. Fitting a replacement screen yourself is cheapest — from £46.99 for the part. A local repair shop charges the part plus labour. Google’s own out-of-warranty repair is usually the most expensive route, and the price depends on the model, so check Google’s current quote for your Pixel before deciding.
| Repair route | Typical UK cost | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Fit a replacement screen yourself | From £46.99 (part only) | Confident DIYers and repair businesses |
| Local repair shop | Part + labour | People who’d rather not open the phone |
| Google / manufacturer repair | Highest (varies by model) | Phones still under warranty |
Because the display is the single most expensive component in a Pixel, buying just the screen assembly is what makes DIY so much cheaper — you skip the labour markup entirely. If you don’t want to open the device, you can still save by supplying your own part to a technician.
Which Google Pixel screen do you need?
Modern Pixels use OLED displays where the glass, touch digitiser and panel are bonded into a single assembly. That means a “screen replacement” swaps the whole unit — you can’t replace just the outer glass at home reliably. Here are the current in-stock options and prices:
- Pixel 6 — OLED assembly £48.99 (also available with digitiser at £89.98)
- Pixel 6a — OLED £64.99
- Pixel 7 — OLED £48.99 or OEM £99.98
- Pixel 7 Pro — OLED £46.99
- Pixel 8 — Ultra-HD LCD £59.98 or OEM £89.98
- Pixel 8 Pro — OLED £69.99 or OEM £135.98
- Pixel 9 Pro — OLED £99.98
- Pixel 9a — service-pack LCD £99.98
Always match the exact model name printed on your phone (Settings > About phone). A Pixel 7 screen will not fit a Pixel 7 Pro or a Pixel 7a — they are different sizes.
OLED, OEM or aftermarket: which replacement should you buy?
You’ll see two labels on Pixel screens, and the difference matters:
- Aftermarket OLED assembly — an OLED panel made to the same specification as the original, at the lowest price. Excellent colour and touch for everyday use; the best value for most repairs.
- OEM / service-pack — an original-specification panel for people who want factory-identical brightness, colour calibration and features. Costs more, but it’s the closest to “as new”.
Neither is a “fake” — they’re quality tiers at different prices. We explain the trade-offs in detail in our OLED vs OEM Pixel screens comparison, and cover display technology generally in our OLED vs LCD guide.
How does a Pixel screen replacement work?
The process is the same across the Pixel 6–9 range, and on these models the display is removed from the front (not the back):
- Power the phone off completely.
- Warm the edges of the screen to soften the adhesive (a heat pad or hairdryer on low).
- Lift the display with a suction cup and slide a thin pick around the edge to release the glue.
- Disconnect the battery first, then carefully unplug the display flex connectors.
- Seat the new screen, reconnect the flex cables, and power on to test before sealing.
- Apply fresh adhesive and press the display firmly into place.
If you’re not confident, don’t force it — a mishandled flex cable or a punctured battery is a costly mistake. Our full DIY Pixel screen replacement guide covers the tools, difficulty rating and safety steps in detail.
Should you repair the screen or replace the phone?
Direct answer: if the screen is the only fault and the phone is a Pixel 6 or newer, replace the screen — a £47–£100 part is far cheaper than a new handset and the phone has years of life left. Reconsider only if the device also has battery, charging or water-damage problems, where the combined repair cost climbs. Our guide on a cracked Pixel screen that still works helps you decide whether to fix it now or wait.

Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to replace a Google Pixel screen in the UK?
The replacement screen itself starts at £46.99 (Pixel 7 Pro). A repair shop adds labour on top; Google’s official repair is usually the most expensive option and varies by model.
Are your Pixel replacement screens genuine?
We stock both original-specification OEM/service-pack displays and high-quality aftermarket OLED assemblies. Each product page states clearly which tier it is.
Will a new screen fix green lines or an unresponsive touch?
Yes, if the fault is in the display itself — cracked glass, dead touch, coloured lines or a black screen are all resolved by a replacement assembly. If the phone was liquid-damaged, the fault may be on the logic board instead.
Can I replace a Pixel screen myself?
Yes. Pixel screens are DIY-replaceable with heat, a suction cup and picks, but they’re glued and sit close to the battery, so care is essential. If you’re not comfortable, supply the part to a technician.
Do you deliver across the UK?
Yes — The Repair Plus is UK-based and ships domestically, with same working-day dispatch on orders placed before 4:00pm, Monday to Friday.
