LUOWEI LW-314 Phone Frame Deformation Corrector

A phone dropped on its corner can come back with a bent frame, and a new screen won't sit flat in it however carefully you fit it. The LUOWEI LW-314 straightens bent and twisted phone borders with controlled pressure before you fit new parts.

It's a metal alloy tool with smooth adjustment knobs and a manual pressure system, described as fitting most smartphones. The listing doesn't give weight, size or clamp range.

When the LW-314 helps

• A bent frame after a drop.

• A new screen that lifts at one corner.

• Buttons that feel stuck because the frame is out of line.

• Back glass that won't seal on a warped housing.

Straightening safely

Remove the screen and battery before correcting the frame. Apply pressure a little at a time and check against a flat surface after each step. Aluminum can crack if forced too far in one go.

Use it before fitting a new screen, so the frame is true and the adhesive bonds evenly. Wipe the contact points clean after each use.
