Can I change the front of my new white iPhone SE with a white front using the iPhone 8 parts ? I prefer the white front with the white back.
Thank You,
Vinny

Yes, you can change the screen to get a white front, if you can get the iPhone 8 white screen. Just be aware that swapping out the screen will void the warranty and likely will no longer be water resistant.

If I bring the phone to an Apple Store I should be covered, shouldn’t I ??

Apple won't replace your black screen with a white one, or at least they haven't in the past. While it can be done, you'll need to do it yourself or find a screen repair shop that will do it.

Is it really worth the hassle?
for me, definitely not.
I always wanted a silver/white 8 with a black front. That never happened, so I always used the all black 8. Having the screen changed to something that's not an original part would have scared me, tbh.
Now I have what I wanted: an 8-shaped SE2020, silver/white, with a black front. :yes:

Just an idea: If you want a white front on your SE 2020, why don’t you just purchase a white front phone skin. It’ll be less expensive than buying an actual white front AND it wouldn’t void your Apple care coverage.

You can find inexpensive ones on Amazon or even dBrand or Skinit.

Just my 2¢
