      Why wouldn’t it just be a direct replacement for the old one? Is it a different size? If they sell replacement screens it should just drop in.

        The OLED is larger in size so I doubt it’s a direct replacement.

          Larger in screen space but the actual screen itself should be the same size. Seems like they just shrank the bezels

            From a couple of videos on YT seems the exact size, the skins, boxes and covers should be fine with the new model too.

          I think it’s just a smaller bezel.

          It’s a completely different device, read the specs.

      I don’t think that’s gonna be possible, they slightly revised the whole board layout. Maybe if you’re lucky.

        By trade-ins I think they mean exchange. We all love the repairability but I don’t think this person was wanting to manually install the upgrades.
