My iPhone SE 2020 screen is quite badly scratched but I have an old one from work which is in near mint condition. Can I switch the two screens over or do I still need to change home buttons or reprogramme?
Questa è una buona domanda?

You will need to swap the home button over from the old screen or you will loose the functionality but besides that you should have no issue. See the Sostituzione schermo iPhone SE 2000 for steps on how to do so.

Hi Colin,
The SE 2020 is one of the last iPhones that does not have a serialized screen, meaning it is not paired to the logic board so you won't get that bogus genuine parts warning if you change the screen.
However, all phones that support True Tone (that is, all phones after the iPhone 8) need to have a piece of data called the MtSN copied from the original screen to the replacement in order to keep the True Tone function. A device programmer is required to copy and reprogram the data; both the JC V1SE and the QianLi iCopy programmers support that function. Figure on spending at least $85 USD if you want to buy a programmer for your one time use. There's always a chance might be able to find a local repair shop who can do the programming for you, but that's a crapshoot.
Otherwise yeah, @thequacker is absolutely right that you do have to swap over the home button or you'll lose your Touch ID function. If you don't use Touch ID then you can just swap over the screen, but I'd suggest holding onto the original in case you ever decide to sell the phone; you'll get a much better price with the original home button.
