Middle Frame Ring Only for LG Nexus 5X White

The Middle Frame Ring on your LG Nexus 5X is the outer structural ring — the visible border that runs around the entire perimeter of the phone between the front glass and the back cover. It is the component you see when you look at the side of your device. The LCD Frame Middle Chassis is the internal structural plate that components mount onto inside the phone. The Middle Frame Ring is the external structural ring that holds both the front and rear assemblies together and gives the phone its overall structural rigidity. A bent or cracked ring causes the entire device to feel loose and misaligned on your LG Nexus 5X.

A bent or cracked Middle Frame Ring causes the display glass to lift at the edges, the back cover to not sit flush and leave visible gaps, internal component alignment to shift causing sensor and camera misalignment, the side buttons to feel loose due to warped button cutouts, and the overall chassis to flex under normal hand pressure on your LG Nexus 5X. These structural issues worsen progressively if the ring is not replaced.

It depends on the specific LG Nexus 5X design. Some middle frame rings have the volume and power button caps integrated into the ring structure, while others have separate button caps that sit in cutouts in the ring. This listing covers the ring only — without pre-installed buttons unless specified. Check the product listing for your LG Nexus 5X and order the corresponding Side Keys or Volume Button Outers separately on SAHII.in if needed.

Middle Frame Ring replacement is one of the most involved physical repairs — requiring complete disassembly of the device. Both the display assembly and the back cover must be removed, all internal components must be detached from the frame, and everything must be carefully reassembled in the new ring. Professional repair by an experienced technician is strongly recommended for this repair on LG Nexus 5X.

Yes — a 7-day replacement warranty covering manufacturing defects is included. An unboxing video is mandatory for all warranty claims. Frame rings with physical damage from installation attempts are not eligible for return. For more information, check out SAHII's Return Policy.
