Give Your iPhone 14 Plus a Second Life: The Definitive Guide to Parts and Spares

Alright, let's cut to the chase. You've got an iPhone 14 Plus in your hands. A beast of a phone, no doubt. With its massive 6.7-inch screen and a battery that goes on for days, it’s a brilliant piece of kit. But... disaster strikes. A clumsy drop, a battery that no longer keeps up, or a mysterious fault. Before you even think about forking out a fortune for a new phone, what if we told you that you can bring it back to its former glory? 😉 Welcome to the iLevante.com hub for iPhone 14 Plus parts, where you'll find everything you need to get your Apple device back in fighting shape.

This phone isn't just any old model. We're talking about a device with a Super Retina XDR display, powered by the mighty A15 Bionic chip – the same one found in the iPhone 13 Pro models. This means it has more than enough grunt to handle anything you throw at it. But its hardware, as robust as it is, isn't indestructible. That's where we come in.

Is Your Screen Smashed? Let’s Talk About iPhone 14 Plus Screen Replacements

That horrifying moment when you see your phone falling in slow motion... we've all been there. A cracked screen is one of the most common accidents, but don't panic! For the iPhone 14 Plus, you have several options to replace that beautiful 6.7-inch panel. It's crucial to know the different types of screens, as the quality and price can vary significantly.

• Original Screens: These are, as the name suggests, original parts. They offer the exact same Super Retina XDR quality, with flawless colours, brightness and touch response. They're the top-tier option, but also the priciest.
• Soft OLED Screens: This is the best aftermarket alternative! Soft OLED screens are built on a flexible plastic substrate, just like the original. This makes them more durable and resistant to knocks than other options. They offer a colour gamut, contrast, and brightness that are virtually identical to the original. If you want top quality without paying the full price for an original, this is your best bet.
• Hard OLED Screens: A slightly cheaper OLED option. Hard OLEDs use a rigid glass substrate, which makes them more fragile than Soft OLEDs. While the image quality is excellent (deep blacks and vibrant colours), they are more susceptible to damage from drops.
• INCELL Screens: We're now entering the realm of LCD technology. INCELL screens integrate the touch sensor and the LCD into a single layer, making them thinner than old LCDs. However, compared to an OLED, you'll notice a difference. The colours aren't as vibrant, the blacks are more of a dark grey, and they consume more power. They are, however, the most budget-friendly option.
• TFT Screens: This is the most basic and cheapest technology. A TFT screen will get your phone working again, but with significant compromises in viewing angles, brightness, and colour quality. It's a temporary fix or for those on a very tight budget.

At iLevante.com, we offer a range of screens so you can choose the one that best suits your needs and budget. All of them are top-quality within their category, ensuring full compatibility with your iPhone 14 Plus.

Battery Problems? Revive Your iPhone 14 Plus! 🔋

The iPhone 14 Plus is famous for its incredible battery life, thanks to its A2850 model battery with a capacity of 4323 mAh. But after a couple of years of intense use, charging cycles take their toll and performance starts to decline. How do you know if your battery is on its last legs?

• Your iPhone shuts down unexpectedly, even with 20-30% charge left.
• It feels sluggish, apps take longer to open, and the general performance is poor.
• You check Settings > Battery > Battery Health and the "Maximum Capacity" is below 80%.
• The phone gets unusually hot when charging or in use.

If this sounds familiar, it's time to replace the iPhone 14 Plus battery. The process is straightforward if you're careful. You'll need to open the device (gently heating the edges helps), disconnect the old battery, and install the new one. A crucial point here is the batteries we offer. Many are OEM versions without a logo. What does this mean? OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) means the battery is made in the same factory and to the same quality standards as the original, but it doesn't carry the Apple logo. It's essentially an original battery without the branding, offering you the same performance and reliability at a much better price.

Rear Covers for iPhone 14 Plus: All Colours, Renewed Style

A cracked back isn't just an eyesore; it compromises the phone's IP68 water resistance and can expose internal components. Luckily, Apple made the iPhone 14 and 14 Plus easier to repair, with a back glass that can be removed independently. At iLevante.com, we have replacement rear covers for the iPhone 14 Plus in all its original colours:

• Midnight (Black)
• Starlight (White)
• (PRODUCT)RED
• Blue
• Purple
• Yellow

Changing the back cover will restore your phone's premium look. The process involves carefully heating the adhesive around the edges, prying off the broken glass, cleaning the frame thoroughly, and fitting the new cover. Crucially, you'll need to transfer some small components from your old cover to the new one, such as the MagSafe wireless charging coil, the LED flash, and a secondary microphone. It's a delicate job, but with patience and the right tools, your phone will look brand new.

Top 5 Most Wanted Parts for Your iPhone 14 Plus

Besides screens and batteries, there are other components that often need replacing. Here are some of the most sought-after parts at iLevante.com, with all the essential details:

1. Lower Pentalobe Screws (iPhone X to 14 Pro Max)

These tiny screws are the gatekeepers of your iPhone. You'll find two of them on either side of the charging port. They are a special 5-point "Pentalobe" type (P2 0.8mm) designed to make DIY repairs a bit tricky. It's very common to strip or lose them during a repair. We offer them in various colours (Silver, Space Grey, Gold, etc.) so they perfectly match the chassis of your iPhone 14 Plus. Always use the right screwdriver to avoid damaging them!

2. Front Camera with IR (Infrared) for iPhone 14 Plus

This isn't just a selfie camera. This module includes the TrueDepth system with an infrared sensor, which is absolutely essential for Face ID. If your front camera fails or you get a "Face ID is not available" message after a knock, you'll need this part. 🚨 A very important technical warning: This component is "paired" or serialised to your phone's logic board from the factory. A simple swap might restore camera function, but it will almost certainly disable Face ID permanently. Specialised technicians can sometimes transfer data from the old module to the new one, but it's a complex process. Handle with extreme care.

3. Charging Port Flex for iPhone 14 Plus

Is your iPhone 14 Plus not charging? Does the cable only work in a certain position? Or are people complaining they can't hear you during calls? The culprit is likely the charging port flex cable. This vital part isn't just a Lightning connector; it also houses one of the main microphones. If this component fails, both charging and call quality will suffer. Replacing it involves opening the phone and carefully disconnecting and replacing the entire flex assembly.

4. Earpiece Speaker

If you can't hear people during phone calls unless you use the loudspeaker, the earpiece speaker is probably faulty. This small component is located at the top of the phone and can get clogged with dirt or fail after exposure to moisture. It's a relatively simple replacement that can make a world of difference to your daily use.

5. Taptic Engine

The Taptic Engine is what provides the subtle vibrations and haptic feedback that make using an iPhone feel so premium. If you no longer feel vibrations for notifications or the haptic feedback feels weak or "rattly," this module may need replacing. It's a self-contained unit that's usually straightforward to swap out once the phone is open.

Other Essential Spares for Your iPhone 14 Plus

The world of phone repair is vast! Beyond the main components, at iLevante.com you'll also find a whole range of other parts to complete any repair: adhesive strips for screens and back covers (essential for maintaining water resistance), camera lens covers, SIM trays, button flex cables (volume, power), and complete sets of internal screws, because it's always good to have spares!

A Technician's View: Hardware vs. Software Problems

Sometimes, what looks like a catastrophic hardware failure is actually a software glitch that can be fixed without opening the phone. An iPhone that drains its battery in a few hours after a new iOS update is a classic example. Before ordering a new battery, try a hard reset or even restoring the phone to factory settings (after a backup, of course).

However, there are tell-tale signs of true hardware failure. A technician's secret weapon is the "Panic Log" or Analytics Data. You can find this in Settings > Privacy & Security > Analytics & Improvements > Analytics Data. Look for files starting with "panic-full-". If you see repeated entries, it means the phone is experiencing kernel panics (forced restarts). The error code within the log often points directly to the faulty component. For example, a code related to the microphone or thermal sensor in the charging port flex will confirm that the flex cable is the problem, not a software bug. This is how pros diagnose issues with pinpoint accuracy!
