Genuine, OEM, Aftermarket?
What does this mean to me?
When it comes to replacing parts on your device, in the UK we have a few options available to us.
Genuine Parts are made by the same people who made your device, so you if want a Samsung made screen on your Samsung phone, ask for genuine.
OEM Parts, OEM, stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer, this means it is the exact same quality as the one found inside your phone already. These are typically made within the same factory as the manufacturer, or a licenced vender of the manufacturer.
Aftermarket Parts: Aftermarket Parts are not made by the manufacturer but are the same specifications or higher than Genuine and OEM by reputable companies such as replacing your HP laptop battery with a Duracell battery. Both HP and Duracell are big reputable companies.
Compatible Parts: from us these are the same as Aftermarket Parts. Other companies will have their own definition of Compatible Parts
Fake/Counterfeit Parts We DO NOT sell, use, or even touch fake/counterfeit parts AT ALL. PERIOD. These are almost always, very cheap components, with a high qualty finish that has the genuine logos stamped on the frame. These WILL break, and could cause lawsuits.
We at Central Computers Driffield will only work with parts from our trusted suppliers within the UK dealing with, Genuine where possible, OEM, or Aftermarket only.
