Hi everyone ! I have a question about 120 Hz (ProMotion) display replacements on iPhone Pro models:
No one here can say for sure, but we can say that Apple doesn't recommend third-party part replacements and they are notorious for being incompatible or having other issues arise aside from refresh rate, such as Face ID or the Camera. Typically third-party parts claim to be compatible but really aren't. And if a third-party part poses a safety or privacy risk, Apple can disable it.
If you are considering a screen replacement, have it done only at Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. They are the only ones with access to genuine parts that will perform with your iPhone properly. If you've already done so, Apple can and typically will deny further service due to the risks involved with a non-genuine part.

If you haven't had your screen replaced with a 3rd party non-Apple-authentic screen, DON'T DO IT? While we can't confirm whether Promotion will work or not, we do know other features likely won't work, such as Face ID and True Tone. Like Zachyy correctly advises, having ANYONE other than Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider replace parts on your phone will render it unserviceable by Apple in the future. You won't be able to trade it to Apple and it's resale value will be greatly, if not totally reduced to nothing.
Thank you for your answers. I went to Apple, and they totally accepted to change my screen. It is just that my phone is no more under warranty. But they will change your screen !
Thank you for your answer. So if I have already change my screen with a third party screen, can I go to Apple and ask them to replace this screen with a genuine screen (upon payment of the screen, of course) ?
“So if I have already change my screen with a third party screen, can I go to Apple and ask them to replace this screen “
no.
You voided the warranty on your phone and Apple will not touch it, they don’t want to be responsible for any damage caused by the unauthorized tampering.

You can ask, but Apple will most likely say no. Apple won't touch phones which have been tampered with.

I'm glad they were willing to replace the screen. Many others haven't been so lucky, so good for you!
120hz ProMotion not working on remplacement screens (not Apple screens).
