friends he found the LCD wasn't Apple it was LG brand when I went back to them I said this is not my part my LCD should be Apple they said Apple never had an LCD brand by them self they use different brands.

Hello @Mico1981m
"is this information right or they swab my original screen with something else?"
Yes it's right as Apple themselves typically use screens bought from Samsung or LG when there manufacturing their iPhone's.
Apple don't manufacture iPhone displays themselves.
Apple don't sell parts to 3rd parties to make repairs either.
So 3rd parties repair shops use parts that fit the iPhone.
These parts used by 3rd party repair shops may not be as good as spec as Apple's original parts however.
If a person has a non Apple screen fitted and this then leads to other issues with the phone then Apple may not offer warranty support.
My opinion is to use the original manufacturer when possible to effect a repair.
I know it's more expensive but imo worth it as your getting original parts and warranty support.
I appreciate right now Apple Highstreet Stores are temporarily closed due to these unprecedented times but they should open on or after the 15th of June.
