When the display is replaced, the Face ID components are not swapped between the units, which possibly leads to the issue. However, doing so rendered Face ID inoperable and the phone throwing an error. The YouTuber replaced the iPhone 13 display panel with another one from an iPhone 13 itself for the repair. A new repair video of the iPhone 13 by Phone Repair Guru shows that replacing the phone’s display could lead to Face ID being disabled and the phone throwing an “Unable to verify this iPhone has a genuine Apple display” message. Apple is once again making it difficult to perform third-party repairs on the iPhone 13 series.
