Somehow destroyed my digitizer...

[Monolith1c]

My phone is 6 days old and 3 days ago I dropped it from my pocket as I was taking it out and it hit my friends kitchen floor (not tile believe it or not) and the screen received a a few cracks up top and the digitizer stopped working so nothing shows on the screen, but the phone will still run (my alarm still went off). All this happened despite buying an iSkin Exo case. Definitely never buying that piece of junk again...

Anyway, I bought my phone outright for $770 taxes in so my carrier told me I'm SOL, and samsung the same thing. So I went to eBay and I'm seeing the screens and digitizers for around $250 to 300 from Asia or the US. The model of my phone is a SGH-I337M, which I believe is the 9505. Now my question is, I would like to buy this screen and digitizer,

LCD Display Touch Screen Digitizer Assembly FOR Samsung Galaxy S4 I9500 Altius | eBay

for the reason that it is the cheapest with $4 shipping to get a tracking number. And also as a Canadian whenever I buy stuff from the US it takes wayyyy longer than coming from Asia for some reason. Butttt, is the 9500 screen and digitizer compatible with the 9505 (or SGH-I337M)? Because when I googled the differences it says there is a 0.01 inch difference in the screen sizes...

Thanks

I saw similar digitizer and glass for my Note 2 around that price range but I called Samsung and they said they'd replace my digitizer and glass for $191. I'm surprised they wouldn't do the same thing for your S4?

They were closed when I called today. I'm going to call again tomorrow. I'll definitely get them to repair if it is even close to the same price. I was just assuming it was going to be like $500 or so.

I just looked at some of their other stock as well. I'm guessing I should should buy from this version instead because my phone says SGH-I337M on the back sticker? Samsung Galaxy S4 SGH-I337 Replacement Parts

On that page it says the screen is 4.99 inches and the one you posted says it is 5.0 inches... Why would they make such a small difference! It would be so much easier if they were all the same. Thank you for the website though, excellent prices on there.

They are all 4.99 inches, but most sites will just say 5.0 inches.
