:-( Different Internal Screen Connector Mi5

[Bruxotolo]

Hi, I bought a Xiaomi Mi5 in December 2016 (Banggood) and a day suddenly the screen turned black. The phone is on but the screen seems to be dead.
I open the phone to replace the screen but the connector on the screen is different from all I've seen for sale. All screen replacement for Xiaomi Mi5 screens are different to mine.
I send to you a picture where you can see the difference between the display connectors on my phone (right, white) and another Mi5 (left)
Can you help me to find a replacement ?


Thanks.

Still I can't insert links because I'm new in this web and until I had posted 10 times it doesn't let me post links.
Have you got the same problem with connector ?

No, just interested in this subject: you never know when you need to replace the display of a phone ;-)
