Badly Broken Screen on MacBook Pro Retina A1398

Image
This MacBook Screen was hit pretty hard to the front of the screen. The LCD panel is cracked, causing the black portions of the display, visible cracks, and multicolored lines to appear on top of the image underneath. The glass covering the screen is also damaged with a deep gouge, you can see light coming through from the backlight behind it. Here's a closer look at the impact site: It looks like some sharp tool hit the front of the screen, maybe a screwdriver. Yikes! Even with the broken glass on the screen, you don't see a lot of cracked glass shards on these models, because the layers of the screen are all fused together. Our service will fix all of these issues on a MacBook Pro Retina display. When the new display is installed, there will be no sign of the accident, and the screen will look good as new. Do you need your MacBook Pro display repaired? We offer both LCD and Glass replacements for MacBook Pros. Take a look at our pricing on our MacBook Pro Display Repair ...

MacBook Air Screen Cracked By Itself

Image
So your MacBook Air screen cracked? This issue is not uncommon. You can find accounts of the MacBook screen cracking by itself on Apple's own forums as well as MacRumors , and others. A crack is only formed by some sort of force, but the amount of force and the type of force that causes a crack can vary a lot. On some models only a little bit of force is required if applied just right to crack the LCD panel of the Mac. The models that seem to crack the most with the least amount of force are the original MacBooks (white and black models), and the MacBook Air series. While both of these models still require some sort of trauma to crack the screen, in our experience they require less trauma to crack on average than the MacBook Pro line of laptops. Sometimes when the computer comes in we can see where the impact point was that caused the damage to the LCD, other times, it does appear the screen started to crack from a kind of twisting motion. On some model computers, including the...

13 inch MacBook Pro Non-Retina and Retina with Cracked Screens and 11 and 13 inch MacBook Air LCD Replacements

Image
This cracked screen above looks pretty bad, with the horizontal and vertical colored lines and "shatter" image covering most of the screen. This type of cracking is common when the computer is closed on a small object like headphones. But we say this Mac was lucky, because the glass panel on the front of the display is totally intact. You might notice that there is a plastic case on this laptop. Yep, screens can be damaged even if the laptop has a case! For these Non-Retina models, the glass and LCD screen are separate parts. This 13 inch MacBook Pro A1278 was able to be repaired in under 24 hours for under $200. The newer Retina version 13 inch MacBook Pro has a thinner bezel around the LCD panel in the display, and doesn't have the silver "MacBook Pro" branding at the bottom of the screen. Another easy way to tell the Retina models apart from the older unibody MacBook Pros is to look for the DVD slot on the side of the computer. The newer models do not h...

Replacing Screens on Mac Laptops

We get dozens of Macs with broken screens in our shop each week. Each one is a little different. People often ask us, "how can I tell if my MacBook screen needs to be replaced?"

This little 11 inch MacBook Air has a pretty messed up looking display. At first you might think there's something wrong with the video card, because only half of the screen is showing the background image. There is a black bar splitting the display exactly in half. There are multicolored vertical white and rainbow stripes covering the right side of the screen. If you look closer, you will see the jagged purple line in the bottom corner. It's likely this MacBook Air A1466 was damaged along the bottom right, under the bezel. It might have gotten pinched too hard there while it was being moved, or...

13 Inch MacBook Air Screen Repair

Image
The damage sustained by this MacBook air caused the display to only work on exactly half of the screen. This was likely caused by the ribbon cable that allows the I/O board on the display to connect to the LCD panel itself. The new LCD panels come with this new IO board including those ribbon cables, so a new LED panel fixed the display nicely. Ribbon Cable Failures on MacBook Airs In the picture above you can see that the display of this MacBook Air did receive a hit or trauma that caused the display to fail. There are two ribbon cables at the bottom of the display that connect to an IO board which in turn connects to the logic board of the Mac. The hit seems to have damaged the left side ribbon causing the video feed to not come through at all for that side of the display. Failure without damage While the picture above is clearly damage, we have seen cases where these ribbon cables fail without any obvious damage to the display. The failure seems to occur more frequently if the ...
