The Flipper Zero is a versatile multi-tool device that is widely used for hardware hacking, electronics prototyping, and security testing. One of its key features is its display, which allows users to interact with the device and view information. However, if the display on your Flipper Zero becomes damaged or stops working, it may be necessary to replace it.

Replacing the display on a Flipper Zero is a bit more involved than replacing some other components, as it requires desoldering the old display from the device's circuit board.

Where do we get the screen?

Malav Vyas -

Currently you can't, unless you take them from another broken flipper. They are custom made and have a different pinout from normal displays, but Flipper devices have stated that they will start selling replacement parts soon™.
