OnePlus is offering free display panel replacement to select OnePlus users in India. It could be a move to preemptively fix issues that come from OLED panels like the infamous green line problem.

An X user spotted a new benefit in the OnePlus Red Cable Club loyalty program called the Lifetime Free Screen Upgrade. This new feature offers free screen upgrades to the users of the OnePlus 8T, 8 Pro, OnePlus 9, and OnePlus 9R in India as long as it doesn’t have any damage or went through unauthorized repairs.

OnePlus further explained the program and said that the initiative comes in three tiers of service:

  • Comprehensive Diagnostics: Conducts a thorough evaluation of the screen performance and reliability.
  • Screen Upgrades and Replacements: Eligible users can receive a “new, advanced display panel” that “enhances performance with vibrant colors and increased durability.” This display is said to be “specifically engineered to perform well in high-humidity and high-temperature environments.”
  • Deep Cleaning Service: A complimentary, in-depth cleaning of the device to ensure it operates optimally.

The replacement panels were apparently improved to become more resilient against “moisture and environmental conditions.”

While the free service is currently exclusive to India, OnePlus is reportedly considering offering it to other markets as well.
